Point.360 Digital Film Labs

2. Archiving Color Image to Single Strip 35mm Black & White Film
GOAL:
Stable image storage that is recoverable and reliable.

3. Current Archival Preservation Method YCM Separations
(3) Separate Primary Colors –
Yellow, Cyan, Magenta
Recorded to:
(3) Separate Black & White Film Reels

4. Visionary™ Archival Process
(3) Separate Primary Colors
Recorded to:
(1) Black & White Film Reel

5. Two Methods Visionary ™ Archive
RGB+:
HD or 2K Full RGB to 3 Quadrants
Audio and/or Metada in the fourth
RGB Intra-Mosaic:
4K Full RGB Intra-mosaic to 4 Quadrants
Each method provides optimum film master from provided source.

6. Visionary™ Archive – RGB+

7. Pixel Accurate Alignment Patterns

8. Consistent Color Representation
Calibration and alignment patterns to ensure consistent luminance, blacks, midtones, and whites.

11. Source Image

12. Close-up of RGB Intra-mosaic on Visionary™ Image

13. Full Resolution Red, Green, Blue Intra-Mosaic Encoded

14. The Visionary Encoding Process

15. Source Image to Visionary™ Conversion
Visionary Image

16. Creative Intent Preserved
Alignment patterns allow reconstruction pixel to pixel
Color creative intent preserved with this alignment pattern– not simply images

17. Tests Recorders: ARRILASER 2, Aaton K, Celco, etc.
Film Stock: Kodak 2234, 2238, 5269,
Fuji RDS 4791

18. Rosetta Stone Description of film picture Definition of RGB
Intra-mosaic pattern
Defined color map
Alignment and image level
Source Dimensions and frame rate

19. Data Migration/Archival
Data and Video tape become obsolete
Film expected to last 300 years

20. Visionary™ Archive Workflow

21. Visionary™ Archival Process
2/3 less film grain than traditional YCM recombine
Re-registration not required
Warped film no longer an issue
Alignment patterns ensure solid stabilization
Creative intent preserved on film
Stable image storage that is recoverable and reliable
Free source code provided for open standard unarchiving

22. Visionary™ Audio Recorded series of values
Digital Values can range from
16-24 bit and 48-96kHz
Digital information encoded in
analog wrapper
Protected digital values impervious
to film scratches, warping,
creases, and dust
Each value is sampled two times
to protect sound integrity

23. What’s Next? 3D Stereoscopic Archive Element
Developing Metadata Integration
