Going to 35mm

Alpha Cine Labs in Seattle does quite a few tape to film transfers. I have seen their demo reel projected and it is very impressive. I am sure they can answer your questions.

Also Efilm is considered among the best if not the best in the biz:

[david braman] “We have a client who is asking about projecting some spots we did for them at theatre. My question is what is the process for doing that, and can it be done even though we shoot at 30p?”

In case you want to get another quote, there’s also Swiss Effects in Europe:

I haven’t worked with them myself, but they seem to have a good reputation.

All the best,

Cart before the horse here. If it is advertising or “other” the theatre will probably just air it off of dvd. You need to find out if it is a multi-plex chain and what their parameters are.

Supply the theatre with a high rez quicktime or any tape format and they will make the dvd which will air.

I know this is a let-down, but that’s how they do it.

If it is a film then definately go get a transfer.

Have fun,

Mick
