Digital Cinema, Take 2

from the changing-nature-of-film dept

A very interesting article over at MIT's Tech Review talks about how special effects houses are using digital technology to make movies. It talks about how much of Cast Away's secluded desert island was really filmed above a parking lot in California, with the ocean later inserted digitally. There's also a big business in restoring old, damaged films to their original quality using digital restoration techniques.
