Thanks Lucien, I just read on 2k vs. 4k which makes me question what I am doing thinking I can go into a theater. See: http://magazine.creativecow.net/article/the-truth-about-2k-4k-the-future-of-pixels What type of rendering settings and delivery file format for a theater would I be able to get out of Premiere Pro CS5? Do I take a hard disk to the theater, Blu-Ray or do I need to go read a book and do some research? The Project: I have filmed a performing arts school for the past 6 years in SD. They put on really big productions in a major Chicago theater. I was thinking that this year I would film the entire show in HD, but deliver this year's show in SD as usual. I would then take the HD footage from this year, find the best performances from the past 6 years which are SD, and edit it together for a film to be shown in a theater for a fund raiser for the school. When you say commit to one medium, since all of my footage is SD, it sounds like I should stick with SD..??? Most indie productions I have seen in theaters have looked very bad, and the projection has been too dark. Perhaps the theater was just projecting from some low lumen projector and not a theater projector??? I need to go and talk to the theater that I am targeting. Thank you for your time and knowledge.
