Author Topic: Correcting the error of Technicolors ways. Brad Allen Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 688 From: Evansville, IN, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 10-04-2004 12:34 PM                     Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, but I wanted to thank Brad for attempting to set Technicolor straight in their boneheaded and dangerous ways. (I was just re-reading and refreshing my memory about Rachels brush with a technicolor reel) Anyway, Thanks Brad, we all appreciate the effort.  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 10-04-2004 05:30 PM                    Agreed but let us not confuse Technicolor issues with studio issues. Crappy reels? That's a legit Technicolor issue. Picking up your preview print and bringing back a different one two days later? Don't bitch to them; the studio orders it done that way. Chopping off our carefully argued over ID frames on a rejuvy print? Yep, make them understand the error of their ways. Not giving more than a glance to a print for "integrity inspection?" That's a studio issue. Tech can only do what they are paid to do. Can't expect them to work for free.  |  IP: Logged
