Color Correction & Grading

[LuckyStudio 13]

Can somebody guess what camera, codec and aspect ration these were shot in ? :tongue:

I'll hazard a guess as 2.35:1 on a NTSC based 24p format.

24p and NTSC are correct sir. What cam, codec and original aspect ratio ?

 

[MichaelP]

Going to guess DVX100 or XL2. As far as codec, that's a bit too difficult as it can change to many flavors in the process. Original aspect ratio is 16:9. The real question is whether you matted 2:35 or whether you shot with a 16:9 lens adapter to a 16:9 image which results in 2.35:1. I am going to guess a 2:35 matte with reposition of active picture for composition.

Man, u are good. It was shot with A bare Canon XL2 without adapter to
DV tape and was edited n color corrected with NTSC DV Codec as well.
It was originally shot in 4:3 aspect ratio.

Do I win a prize?

If you click the link, you will see a trailer and stills of a film that was shot on XL2.
