Re: ReRe: What kind of encoder did they use for ?

I think the film does exist as an uncompressed source Apart from EDITING
the thing digitally (you don't think they still edit with film do you?),
they used it for all the compositing and re-framing for the 4:3 version
of the film. They have Terabytes of disk space at Pixar, and probably
have every frame archived anyway. Even us mere mortals
with a few tens of grand to spare can do this ( the SPYDR DDR for
example which can
store uncompressed HD pictures and spurt them out at whatever format you
require,
PAL, NTSC, HD - no Digibeta or D1 required!)
By the way did you know that the next size up from Terabyte is a
Yodabyte!
true it was coined by the boffins at IBM. Frank Soltis (Chief Architect)
said so.
