Year 2, Semester 2, Week 4, Lecture

In todays Lecture we looked at Digital Masters. In the handout given in class we went through what is the difference between Project and Media files, the difference between offline and online editing. I learned about mastering to tape e.g chosen post production house performs colour corrections, titles, effects, etc, then masters to tape. I also learned that sprokit(probaly spelt wrong) holes are on just one side on super16mm and are on both sides on 16mm. Also in todays lecture i learned that RTE programmes must be shot on a professional format such as Digibeta, Beta SX, DVC Pro 50 or DVC Pro 25 and that Mini DV is only acceptable in certain acces or diary-type programming. We also didd a recap on Aspect ratios where we looked at the two different ways to record a 16:9 picture on a 4:3 tape using Letterbox or 16:9 Anamorphoric and how in RTE the programmes must be delivered on 16:9 full height only. In the Lecture I also learned about the different RTE technical specifications.
