MY SISTERS KEEPER USES Pro8mm |
Nick Cassavetes directs Cameron Diaz in the drama My Sister's Keeper, an adaptation of the Jodi Picoult novel concerning a 13-year-old's (Abigail Breslin) lawsuit against her parents alleging that they conceived her in order for her to become a bone marrow donor for her sick older sister (Sofia Vassilieva). Alec Baldwin co-stars as the attorney that takes on the case for the young girl. We can't wait to see where the Pro8mm footage will be used in the 2009 release of MY SISTERS KEEPER. Several scenes of the wedding day of Sarah and Brian Fitzgerald and backyard summer luau party were shot on the Classic Professional and scanned on our new M2 Scanner

This new Beck project was shot on THE RED CAMERA and with two Canon Max8 1014 Cameras, primarily on Fuji Color Negative Film. It was transferred in both color and black and white to HD 1080p . The footage was then encoded at Pro8mm to 10 bit uncompressed .MOV files. The promo video released this week uses ALL Pro8mm footage (below) and includes some of Phil's "Scantastic" effects! It will be interesting to see when the final project is released how much is done in "8" and how much is done in "RED"
