RE: BBC Delivery Standards
Ah, Dominic, but with a little cropping and a little letterboxing,
you tick off both sets of complainers rather than neither.... ;-)
The fundamental issue is composition of the frame. No constant
one-size-fits-all approach can ever work as well as one that allows
for some adjustment. Of the variable positioning schemes, the best
results and easiest application are found with tilt-and-scan.
We actually tested a variant that used something similar to 14x9, but
with a smaller headroom compromise, and more on the bottom. It, too,
failed miserably on some very straightforward storytelling shots. I
can show you the tests if you like.
