Who Has Widescreen Tv's?


Jonny Jones

Recommended Posts

Just been reading an interesting thread on a pro video forum and I been having technical thoughts/ideas about Our Summer. Just wondering how many of you have widescreen tv's, and how many of you have standard 4:3 (square - apposed to widescreen rectangular) TV's ?

Many thanks!

I have both 16:9 and 4:3 TV's in my house, if this is a decider on whether to film Our Summer in widescreen or not then do, widescreen is the only way. (Y)

Ive already started shooting, in HDV so its widescreen. But its most likely gonna be 16:9 letterboxed so that it looks good on both kinds of TV - plus widescreen TVs will be able to stretch the picture to full widescreen.

Nice one people!

Twil be in widescreen I think! DVD players automatically add the two black 'letterbox' blocks above and below footage for those people who have 4:3 TV sets, and everything still looks great! I'll still experiment before releasing the DVD but its defo gonna be full widescreen me thinks!

I'm not convinced that widescreen looks nicer for trials videos. But I guess if most people have widescreen, then you might as well fill it :)

For the record - Our Widescreen tele broke so 4:3 here :(
