Watch: Inside Look at Turning 35mm Film into 65mm from FotoKem

“One frame at a time.” This is for all the film geeks! Adam Savage’s Tested has debuted a video taking us on a tour through the FotoKem offices to show how they turn a 35mm film reel into 65mm for projection on Large Format screens. The video goes into one of the labs where Adam meets FotoKem’s Andrew Oran + technician Jeremy Miller to learn about the process and the machinery used in this technique. The device is called a “multi-format optical printer” featuring apertures for 35mm & 70mm films. It basically involves the old school concept of projecting one print through a series of lens right onto another print. They also add in a special “lamp house” that does color correction while the light is going through it. I really enjoy getting to see this because it’s rare that any one of us will ever set foot in this room and get the grand tour of how it works. Thank you Adam for being enough of a mega movie geek to allow us a peek at this cinema process. šŸŽžļøĀ //Ā Continue Reading ›
