BTW, what Robert describes is not digital, but analog and magnetic. Analog videotape recordings can't be viewed by the human eye directly, but the intensity of the magnetism on the tape corresponds to brightness of the image. In contrast, a digital medium, whether magnetic tape, disc or something else, contains discrete values, typically 0 or 1, which are decoded into an image via multiple steps.

😁
My favorite moment is the explanation of the power of sound in film and the added sfx at
- The most important thing I was ever taught about making films is that an audience will forgive less than perfect picture quality, but they will NEVER forgive a bad sound mix. Whether it is muffled, crackling dialogue, overbearing music or the thing is just poorly mixed, the human brain literally cannot process it as information, and audience members will actually become angry.
- Deadlines
- Alita: Battle Angel
I did some of the mocap tracking on the shot shown on , tracking Rosa for Alita was hard but tracking Ed for Zapan was harder because his real face had to stay on the plate. We had to match his nose, chin, and temples to millimetric precision, for Left and Right camera. It involved loading different puppets and do custom adjustments on each shot. The mocap work on Alita was a lot more exciting than for Avatar, but because we had to merge CG into plates, not plates into CG.
