A Film Studio Looks at HDTV
This article looks at HDTV from the viewpoint of a major motion-picture studio involved with the production and distribution of feature films and drama for prime-time network television. Examples of past efforts to introduce video into the filmmaking process are cited and related to the ways in which HDTV can make the most significant initial contribution. Its greatest impact is expected to be in the area of post-production, where it will simplify image manipulation and compositing. The role of HDTV standards is also examined, and the importance of establishing a single worldwide distribution format is emphasized.
