I liked their other video "Water is Wet"

"Vote early, vote often" is more of a Chicago thing . . . .

Since you asked several times. Swimsuits are not invented yet and people don't swim with their armors on. It is unrealistic to swim with clothes on. Soldiers need to swim cross a stream to get to the other side. (Book only) the weather is hot. On certain hours of the day, there is miasma, that rise up and kill anybody in the stream. (Book only) All the other water sources nearby are poisoned. The soldiers are hot, thirsty and die if they dare to drink. The production don't have time to film every details of that little journey (which lasted a page or two). They just have to show how serious the situation was for the soldiers. So they a shot scene of soldiers swimming and died of poison. That scene only last less than a minute in a show that has 80+ episode. Not the most important scene, but Romance of The Three Kingdoms (1994) like to show the common soldiers dying realistically, unlike just most movies and tv shows, that love showing only their commanders making decisions, or being hero stuff.

It’s good to relearn and refresh

You used to be huge, what happened? Was is the UA-cam algorithm?

From UA-cam channel Moviewise, I recommend his videos on Casablanca and The Searchers.

Disney+ butchered the speed and frame rate of The Muppets Show. It was shot on tape, Disney removed frames to make it 24fps, and even changed its speed. With no 180 shutter blur, it looks choppy.

As a film lover, 24fps will be my love until i die, because the way i divided between reality and fantasy is like a traditional human being (BTW maybe the last generation). In the other hand for generations who grew up with the Iphone, the "Reality" what we used to call was conducted in the black mirror. not mention the future VR. Yes the motion that has been "blured" is the reality.

Nice dub at 4:34. I've had to do one or two (or six or seven) of these myself on my own show, which is always a fun little challenge... And you did it perfectly! I would not have caught it if I wasn't looking at your face when you said it. Anyway, terrific video!

Hold on... There are still Sizzler restaurants around? God, I haven't seen one in, like, 20 years...

I feel and wished 20th Century Fox should’ve merged with Verizon instead of Disney in the first place,so that way the mouse would’ve never won again and Fox would still be alive as a major movie company. It’s the lesser of two evils.

"fuck it, i'm going to church" - John Hess really enjoy all your videos john 👍🏼 great work.

i think i would be represented if steve jobs was responsable for this engenigers

24 fps in my old camera for running person we see 1 frame that is solid and almost all the others are blur and deformed..So I need to learn what else is doing this. Because I disnt see that low quality in cinema ever!

The most importantteacher of my world now

Hope you keep going to Church! Jesus Christ Saves!

this series of videos , are a contribution to knowledge , unbiased , well documented , with an excellent pace of flow , with filmmaker IQ giving an example for inspiration to the narrator's work

Dude I would love to help you move and build that studio. I'm doing something similar at my house here in Albuquerque. I have a ton of crap in a storage unit that I hope to vacate in a few months and move it into my home storage/studio. It won't be as big a 'raise' as yours but it will be nice to have one less bill. You will HAVE to make videos of your progress!!!

Very cool and instructive video, thanks for sharing !

Best of luck in your upcoming endeavors, John! I've learned SO MUCH from your channel over the years and I would very much like to see more of it, especially "history of" and technical deep dives.

My favorite, "7 Brides for 7 Brothers". Not a remake of a Broadway play but a true Hollywood musical.

Very interesting information. Thank you for taking the time to make this video.

Civil War and Challengers, both released by A24, are examples of the mid-budget cinema that Hollywood's biggest studios have abandoned due to greed, always wanting the big tentpole blockbusters. Both Civil War and Challengers were successful at the box office.

Studio executives are so stupid and don't understand anything about art and what actually makes people emotionally connected. Art is just a commoditty to those executives, and they don't even understand people's desires to connect with each other through art they love, through what they have in common, it's a basic human need. Sooner or later, that pure greed is gonna be the end of the big traditional Hollywood studios unless they change course. Quotes from Sony and Paramount's presidents show how deeply out of touch and deluded those executives are. I bet they don't even understand what is like being touched by a fictional story and characters. They are clueless. The search for pure short-term profit is gonna kill these studios in the long term.

Well I am in the 4th camp: What gear actually sounds like. My camp can't giva a 💩about other camps. When listening to my SMSL M7 (my first ever dedicated DAC ) I noticed a HUGE difference in quality between streaming and DSD 512 (SMSL M7 is not a DSD dac so signal it is converted to PCM, so I was actually listening to a PCM version of that DSD file), so I was convinced resolution is king. As I spend more and more money, now on Chord Qtest with 1000Euro linear PSU, I can say that all resolution does is keeping poor devices going completely off the rails. At this level the difference in mastering is bigger then the difference in format and resolution, making it basically a non factor. So bottom line is if hy rez files sound better, you need a better DAC. If it doesn't just play whatever you like and don't bother with it. Funny part is that the 3rd group, the "engineers" who are so well versed on "knowing the theory" can't really explain why hi rez file sound better on cheap DAC's, so excuse me for not taking these clowns seriously. The only engineers I want to hear, are those who actually build hi-end device because they proved to have the knowledge about how to do it.

Anyway, about movie theatres. The main reason why people are not going there IMO are just convenient and unwillingness to bet 20$ on a forgettable movie. The best movie experiences I have recently is on the planes. Air travel are the most uncomfortable way to travel I know. Jetlagged little leg room, stressful. No wifi, 10KM over land. People don't talk much because they are stressed and sleepy. The headphones are great. I can paused whenever I want or I need to, to go to the toilet, or eat plane food. The movies are comfy. Since the selecttion are far smaller than streaming services, don't have the browse-endlessly syndrome. The movies, are curated, ranging from great to OK. Most movies in the world are just OK. Most movies of a genre shared the same features, like almost every human. You don't expect too much difference from each Rom-com, Horror, to each other. Your know there is going to be Romance and Jokes in a Rom-com. Death and Mystery in a horror. Competent action men in a Kungfu film,... etc. I don't watch Furiosa, or Mad Max, but I think I can get the gist. Why would I spent 20$ to drive there, listening to ads before the movie start, try to be punctual, cannot pause when I want, no subtitle, overpriced food for movies which I felt that already watch before? Last time I went to a movie theatre, they told me to buy ticket via phones. That's not convenient to me. I also don't want to watch any cinematic universe to get an idea of what's going on. If I walk to a cinema, I might check it out. But all the cinemas need to be driven to, and I could not just bother. For most people, the appeal of the theaters, are not the movies, but the group activities of friends and families. Chickflicks like Barbies are for girl's night out or with their date. Marvel and Star Wars films are for groups of nerdy friends. Film festivals would be for cinephiles. Asian film industry bring in the money last year. Groups of friend watches movies in cinemas, individuals watches movies at home. That's what killing the movie theaters. I think people just grew up, experience the more convenient streaming platforms, fewer rituals to adhere to. When your friend or date don't feel the need to pay money to go to the theater, and instead hang out at home, they can experience great films of over 100 years of cinema, instead of gambling on whether the recent stuffs is actually good enough.

I missed the stream, but I thought you were thinking of moving out of California, sold the overpriced house in this market and moved to Tennesse. Was that no longer the plan?

I thought Puritanism was long gone. Americans still have this problem with nudity. How do you even have sex with your clothes on? Here in Europe, it is no problem.

Awesome. Better than anything on the radio today for sure. Thanks for sharing!

make the walls - inside and out - white. Not off-white. Not country-white. Just. White. Better for everything.

For your "shed". b very careful about ground , electricity and DATA. The she will have its own ground, which will be different from your house's ground. Any wire between the two will carry current because of ground differential, so you have to isolate any ethernet or DSL copper links (or put fibre link between the 2 buildings ta which point ground differential doesn't matter. In a thunderstorm, voltage differential between the 2 buildings grounds can generate current strong enough to fry your electronics. Your default electrician may not be aware of issues with data links on copper.

Make sure you take pictures of your old studio so you can recreate it in your new studio.

That's a great idea, John.

Actually I prefer the colour of the raw WesLog in this one 😬

In your video, ar 04:12, you show two "digital" grey squares, one at 18% on left and one at 12% on right. How did you calculate the grey values in your software (Premiere of whatever video editing you use) ? I took a screen shot, pasted it into Photoshop, and your 18% square gave me 128,128,128 (which would be 50% brightness, while the 12% square gave me 107, 107, 107 which is 42% brightness. But switching to LAB, when I get L of 54 for the 18% , and the 12% gets L=45. Was expecting the L to match brightness of RGB values. In HSB mode, it matches the brightness of RGB (50% and 42%). So when in a digital world, is Middle Grey 50% brightness and your video is solely about what happens when a digital 50% is printed and then a light metre is pointed at it?

The biggest complaint I have about 24p is wide pan shots that move just fast enough to start looking stuttery. That takes me out of the experience ruining the immersion. Movies & TV do this all the time and I notice it every time.

Thanks John for all the content you produce. I have been bingeing on your channel better than Netflix. With the HFR debate what frame rate do you shoot for super slo mo if the delivery rate is 120 (24x5=120 for 1/5 playback. 600 fps x 1/5 =120. I love shooting slo mo but playback at 120 seems infeasible. Anyway thanks again for your informative videos it has opened up my eyes. Cheers

Brilliant explanations, still stunned by the magic of the history of the industry.

the talking between the two president was so funny

Would you get these over the mark m2???

Yellow and magenta pushes were pretty common all the way to the 2000s. In the Full HD era though, it seems that teal and orange became the new "plague", affecting not only color grading choices in New films, but also imposing those choices in restorations of many classic films! It's not hard to find many people online in video forums complaining about how horrible modern color grading often is in Hollywood blockbusters, and that the teal push is one of the major problems, like what they also call the piss-yellow. There's a funny article from 2010 called "Teal and Orange - Hollywood, Please Stop the Madness", but the issue is still not gone, see what Cameron did to The Abyss in the new remaster, bathing it in teal (though that's the least of the problems in Cameron's remasters...)

very interresting - but still my best sounding audio files are mixed 44.1 and 192 kHz

Even a year later, I agree 100%. I'm more addicted to finding negatives things in "new movies", but our daughter asked me while seeing the HFR Avatar 2 (she was at an age of 10 at that point) "Dad, why do the cars and birds are looking like toys?". Kids are are honest and ask what they currently think.

Great re-creation and Bowman imitation!

What about 40bit sound

Sound travels at 3ms per meter, while light is effectively instantaneous. When we're used to hearing a sound in our environment and see a corresponding visual stimuli, we naturally expect the sound to arrive 10-50ms later, purely due to physics. Which is about one frame.

dang didn't know i was so influential...

I went to see Furiosa yesterday and it was every bit as weak/lame/bad as you thought it was going to be based on the previews. I'm sorry, but it just wasn't that great of a story from the start. When you don't have a good story to tell from the very start the chances of making a good movie on top of that story are slim and none. Sure, there's wild action scenes and crazy explosions, but that's not enough to carry a movie in 2024. Maybe back in 1984 that would have worked, but it's just not going to cut it in 2024. When is Hollywood finally going to figure this out? And, how many more millions of dollars are they going to flush down the toilet on these failed film productions before they do? Or do they just like repeatedly losing millions of dollars time after time, year after year now?
