Color and Mastering for Digital Cinema (Hardcover)

Color and Mastering for Digital Cinema explores the implications for motion picture post production processes and changes required to the supporting equipment and software. While a new concept to the motion picture community, the selection of the wide gamut, output-referred XYZ color space for digital cinema distribution is based on decades of color science and experience in other industries. The rationale for choosing XYZ and the other color encoding parameters is explained and the book also provides a full case study of the development of DLP Cinema(R) projectors by Texas Instruments. Finally, this book explores how the XYZ color encoding concept can be extended to support enhanced display technologies in the future.
This book contains:
* Brilliant 4-color illustrations that compliment the color science explanations
* Never before published industry information from author Glenn Kennel, a world leader in digital cinema color technology
* Descriptions of key issues and background on decisions that were made in the standardization process
