Summary[edit]
Description"Projector, Film, Countdown Key Frames," Digital Effect Inc., 1980.jpg |
English: These key from an early 1980 film production by Digital Effects Inc, New York, are the first recordings made on a full color Dicomed digital film recorder and one of the very first broadcast graphics to be entirely computer generated. They are state-of-the-art for the period. The designer and director is George Parker. The images were made using the 3D Visions software, written by Judson Rosebush, Jeffrey Kleiser, Donald Leich, David Cox, Gene Miler, Robert Hoffman, Alan Green, Debbie Deas and others. Visions, written in APL with a Fortran back end, calculated images on timesharing and batch computers at DEI, transferred the image files to a DEC PDP 11 computer which controlled the Dicomed film recorder. This image has what is called “polygonal shading,” in which each facet of the projector is shaded a single shade of color, and in advance of more sophisticated shading methods to follow. These images are 4K liquid gate scans from the original 5247 Eastman Color negative, made at Cineric, New York, on custom-built film scanning equipment. |
