I have recently been following the hype about the film November. In an article I just read there is a small paragraph on how they got the image quality so amazing.
"Director Harrison., who also served as the editor for “November,” said the post process was first-rate. “Because we shot 24p, we were able to have a film post-production work flow, which I considered essential. We edited on a beta version of Avid’s Adreneline, which handles up to seven streams of uncompressed video. We output digitally to Digital Betacam, and did real-time up-res to 1080p. For Sundance, we did a cross-conversion to 1080i, which was projected on a 50’ screen. That was quite a blow-up, but the image held remarkably well."

Does anyone understand how you would go about doing this?
Maybe I am missing something, but why would you need a Betacam. Why not just upres using an HDV camera? Check out the article the whole thing is quite interesting.
I would be very grateful for an explanation on how this is done, I am thinking about using the process on an upcoming project.
Thank You
