Christopher Nolan is not a director, he is a movie scientist. He knows precisely how to target our emotional and visual senses to make his films feel immersive and realistic, and to handle a film reel of one of his movies, must be an honour, because its come directly from the camera, and the physical process to make an imax film is unrivalled
I'd like to interview him one day for my channel.
That would be cool@@boredtech
This was a very interesting video, typically videos showing the process of projecting IMAX film are just timelapses, but going in depth and explaining what needs to be done in order to project the film is great.
Usually people are falling a sleep if you overload them with details. :-) I'm glad you liked it!
Wow, what an incredibly enlightening and detailed video! As someone living in Germany, I've traveled to the UK four times this year alone to catch the 15/70mm IMAX re-screenings of Dunkirk, Interstellar, Inception and this month's Batman trilogy. It's fascinating to see how the classic 70mm film projection process works, especially for such iconic movies.
Dunkirk, with its extensive use of the finely-grained Kodak Vision3 50D 5203 negative film, stood out particularly for its exquisite detail. The meticulous preparation that goes into lacing the projector, checking the sound system, and ensuring everything runs smoothly is truly impressive. And learning about the role of the xenon lamps in the projector, their water-cooling system, and how they're filled with xenon gas under high pressure, was especially intriguing.
Keep up the great work, bored_tech! I'm eagerly looking forward to reaching the 3000 subscriber milestone and to seeing more of these insightful videos in the future. Subscribed and liked!
Thank you very much for your feedback. It's great to know that someone likes what you are doing.
I cant wait to see BW IMAX in Oppenheimer next month.
Hey! es scheint noch so einen Verrückten zu geben wie mich :) Ich bin extra nur für die BFI Nolan IMAX Vorstellungen 2 mal dieses Jahr nach London geflogen (gerade gestern zurückgekommen). Hatte 10 Jahre darauf gewartet :) Bin aus München, lass uns gerne mal connecten! Viele Grüße!
@@mixdown78 Hallo, Schön, Sie kennenzulernen, wie soll ich Sie kennenlernen, WhatsApp oder Twitter? Das wird mit einer Übersetzungssoftware übersetzt, also entschuldigen Sie bitte mein schlechtes Deutsch.
I just discovered this channel and this is one of the best videos about IMAX.
I want IMAX film cell, Norway, Oslo
Thank you for your entry!
And thank you for such appreciation!
Definitely the best video sharing how imax 70mm projection room works! Your VO helps a lot in understanding the procedures, great job! If you can make a newer video about Nolan's Oppenheimer projection on both imax 70mm and imax laser, that would be amazing!!
I want IMAX Film Cell, Germany, Munich
Coincidentally, I was visiting IMAX Science Museum a few days ago on 12th June, and luckily met Matt there! As a die hard 1570 Fan, i was given an interesting Update on the current 1570 Situation there. I just appreciate everyone immensely for their efforts on managing the 1570 System, the ultimate pinnacle of Cinema. Thank you for the Video and support for the 15/70mm Format too, Matt mentioned you. Bye!
Thank you for your entry!
Agree, 1570 is a legendary movie format, hopefully there'll be more movies filmed on it.
I've just been binge watching your videos and I can't believe you have so few subscribers - I feel like one of the lucky early viewers of a channel that is bound to be huge one day! Such fantastic production quality and fascinating content, you'll go far I'm sure.
I want IMAX film cell! London, UK
Thank you for your entry!
And thanks for such motivating comment!!!
This is the video I wanted to see for years! In depth explanation of how IMAX system runs from a non-projectionist pov. I visited the IMAX projection booth in Ontario Place once and was astound by the scale of IMAX systems. Hope to see more of IMAX topics!! (it'd be super cool if you can visit the Canadian headquarter some time!)
I also want the film cell haha, I'm in the UK so hopefully Royal mail can reach me.
This is an amazing process to see!! Thanks for sharing!
I got to see interstellar at the BFI imax back on a trip back in april of this year and I honestly have a massive amount of respect for these projectionists. If I were in their position I would be freaked out by how valuable the film is. Seeing this movie in 70mm imax film left me speechless and was easily the best moviegoing experience I ever had.
I want an Imax film cell, Adelaide, Australia. Cheers.
Thank you for your entry!
Projectionists at BFI are real professionals!
This was the video.I was waiting for! So nice to see such a detailed step by step.

Watching through your vids gives me a crazy amount of appreciation for what actually happens when I'm sitting down to watch an IMAX film - just thinking about all the prep and everything that could go wrong makes the film seem even more epic now!

I have seen IMAX Projector Lacing videos before too, and every single time, I am equally fascinated seeing the whole process. Credit goes to Christopher Nolan for still keeping this glorious tech alive. We used to have 4 IMAX 70mm venues in India, but sadly today there are none! I'd love to experience this at least once in my life before it goes extinct from the whole planet.

I always find videos of anything IMAX 70MM quite fascinating and fun. Honestly speaking I could watch these projectors working on for hours.
And of course, "I want IMAX film cell, India".
Thank you for your entry!
Everyone loves 70mm film.
Great to see people getting up into the IMAX booths. I myself do standard 35 and 70mm projection videos, but never IMAX, so seeing this video of yours has made my day! great video my friend!
I want IMAX film cell, Australia, Sydney.
Have a great day!
Thanks for that and thank you for your entry!
Not cell. Film frame.
@@terencemcculloch3294 that’s what was told to be said. Film frame is the correct term, yes :)
i just saw Dune Part 2 at the IMAX Ronson theatre. Oh my goodness, what an experience it was. I loved the feeling of being dwarfed by the screen, the crystal clear imagery, the fact the audio was so booming I could feel my seat vibrating/ It was so immersive, and itn felt like I was looking into a window of another world and it felt so palpable and real, texture and light came across so well in IMAX
First: I want IMAX film cell! United States, York, Pennsylvania.
Second: What great production quality in your videos. I was able to tour the projection booth at the Cinemark IMAX in Tulsa, Oklahoma several years ago. The manager described the process of lacing (I believe he called it "threading"), but actually seeing it, and in such detail, is a real treat. Thank you for your work on this!
First: Thank you for the entry!
Second: Can you imagine that this video was shot on iPhone 13 and DJI Pocket II 🤘😎.
Correct, some people call it "Threading" others call it "Lacing".
And thanks for you feed back, really appreciate it.
Finally I found a video that giving me detailed information on how IMAX film projected. Great video!
and YES, I Want IMAX Film Cell. I'm from Indonesia, Jakarta 🇮🇩.
Cannot believe how interestingly complex this process is. Would definitely love to see one of these booths in person one day... but booked my 70mm Oppenheimer tickets earlier, so certainly excited for that at least! Thanks for the wonderful video too.
I want an IMAX Film Cell if the giveaway is still going on, England, UK. Thanks!
Thank you for your entry!
And cheers for such a great feedback!
I have always wondered on how this actually worked and you explained it beautifully!! Thank you so much for that!!
Also that IMAX cell seems pretty cool. I from a small city called Kochi, Kerala, India.
This is way more work and thought put into something i never thought about than i would ever have imagined. And yes, Nolan is Nolan, but this quite literally is an art in itself
Completely agree.
This is such an incredible process! I love watching movies on IMAX 70mm film and will always go out of my way to watch a movie in that format when available. I live in New York where we have the AMC Lincoln Square IMAX and it is always an incredible experience. I will be seeing Oppenheimer in that format this Thursday night. Great video!

Bumped into your videos after researching the best way to watch Oppenheimer. So excited the Science Museum is still showing 70mm film! Very cool to see the actual film spool being assembled that I will go watch, got my tickets already!

Love how all your videos never miss the fine details, yet remain entertaining and are able to immerse audiences including myself. Keep it up!
That is a great video! When i visited London some years ago i went at the Science Museum IMAX & BFI Imax and it was an amazing experience! I want IMAX film cell Greece, Athens !
2001: a space odyssey is my favourite film of all time. I have never had the chance to see it in IMAX, but I would love to have that chance one day.
Yes! I want IMAX Film Cell. Germany, Walzbachtal
Also super excited to see Oppenheimer on monday. Sadly we only have a full screen size laser theater close to me but I think that’s going to still be close to the original. But this video really makes one appreciate all the work that goes on behind the scenes with real film! Thanks for such an amazing video.
Great video! 👏
Glad you enjoyed it!
Absolutely fascinating to see what happens behind the scenes. We take so much for granted in our lives; knowing how things are done that we normally don't see is just amazing. Thank you so much.
And if the giveaway is still going: I want IMAX film cell. Australia, Melbourne. (I definitely want to see Oppenheimer at the IMAX theatre here - the only one in the southern hemisphere showing it in the 70mm print form.)
Great video bored tech
Thank you Sir!
Wow this video is amazing. This channel is very underrated. Glad I found this channel. I would love to hold an IMAX film so I'll drop a separate comment for that 😅
Amazing channel and videos! I couldn't take my eyes off the screen while watching this.

So cool to see the process! I saw Interstellar at the BFI IMAX 70mm in London when it premiered. Took a trip from Sweden pretty much just for that, worth it! :-) and of course I want the IMAX film cell, Sweden, Stockholm! :-D
Man your production value is so high, and these behind the scenes looks are aMAZING!!!

This is an exceptional insight into how IMAX film reels are loaded. I've only seen one 70mm film IMAX, and that was at the London Science Museum, and I now have a greater appreciation for the work involved.
I want IMAX Film Cell. United Kingdom, Belfast.
Surprised this still doesn't have 10K views! Really great content.
Thank you for the entry!
It will get 10k in a few days.
A few years ago, I thought all movies were made like this then, I found out how they were projected digitally and realized how dumb I was to possibly think that, it is very inefficient to roll the reel and how impractical it would be to actually make movies like this now. After watching lotta videos about IMAX, and how the magic actually lies in the physical frames containing more data than the current cameras could process is actually boggling and fascinating to think so, Thank you for showing everyone what's going on behind the scenes and the staff handling them, haven't seen any other video out there showing the actual process of putting together the frames, really informative.
I want an IMAX film, Kerala, India.
@13:41 The sound that the Imax GT makes while it is running is something else. I wish you would have captured a minute of it running. Great video
Saw this after the more recent Oppenheimer IMAX behind the scenes. The two bodies together were fascinating. Thank you for doing this work!
If the film segment giveaway is still on then Yes, I want an IMAX Film Cell, I’m in Tuscaloosa, Alabama in the USA
It is simply astonishing how this works. Unfortunately I'm very far from any 70mm projection, but just by seeing this video I felt my heart warmer. 😆
There are fantastic directors working with digital nowadays, Pedro Costa to give an example, but Nolan must be praised for his commitment with film.
Thank you for this incredible video and channel. God bless.

Nice run down and well edited presentation. Friend of the family use to run a digital IMAX (aka. LiMAX) and we got to watch a movie from the booth. Not the best way to watch a movie, but it was done more for the cool factor.
I want an IMAX Film Cell. Vacaville, CA, USA.
Amazing content. I’d love to know how they colour grade imax film, or if it’s done in a lab chemically, or in a computer then reformatted back to film. I have gone back to using colour film for taking photographs rather than digital snaps, and it’s amazing the clarity you get out of it. I love the analogue world!
Very fascinating. I was able to see a film in IMAX for the first time a few years ago and I was smiling the whole way through because I’d never seen anything else like it. Unfortunately the mall that the screen is in is almost abandoned, so I’m not sure if it will be around much longer.
I want IMAX Film Cell - New Zealand, Auckland
I'm getting pumped for the IMAX Oppenheimer and this content was really in depth and your video quality was really detailed. Thank you.

My father once worked as a movie projectionist in the late 70’s and early 80’s. Sometimes he would cut out a frame from a roll as a souvenir.
I think he worked with classical 35 mm type systems around the time they introduced the platters instead of one roll on top and bottom.
That was a super cool video. Looking forward to seeing Oppenheimer this week in 70mm. Thanks for sharing!
Not sure if I'm too late but..

Really enjoyable video. I hope cinema experiences like this never stop. I recently saw Interstellar in 15/70 and it was the best cinema experience of my life. Keep up the great content.

So nice to see the technical aspect of IMAX ! I want the IMAX film cell, France - Clermont-Ferrand
that's so nostalgic (yet new) and exciting for recalling how IMAX 70mm projection works! only 70mm celluloid film brings true and genuine IMAX experiences. so very miss them as I can no longer experience it in Hong Kong, as the IMAX film system is no longer exist after renovation of HK Space Museum IMAX theater!
(btw, Hong Kong was once have a 70mm IMAX commercial venue, and luckily i watched two of the IMAX 3D documentaries there! that blew my mind! but i regret that i didn't watch Dark Knight there.)
hope these film projection demonstration videos can allow everyone to remember how celluloid 70mm film can bring the magic!
I want an IMAX Film Cell if the giveaway is still going on, Hong Kong. Thanks!
I always want to watch 70mm Imax. These are incredible videos. I am very surprised by your subscriber count. Hopefully it increases very quickly.

Fantastic video, im actually getting an opportunity to poke my head in the booth on opening night of Oppenheimer for a 70mm IMAX showing and i am deliriously excited
I'd also love to enter for an IMAX film cell for Dunkirk - San Diego, United States
wow, such an interesting process to set the projector up. I wonder if eventually more filmmakers will push the industry to use this format, the cost of filming are so high. I want the IMAX film cell, Germany - berlin
Great video! Really interesting to see the whole process behind it!

@bore_tech thanks for the review. i love watching all films in the cinema. but recently seeing the dim lights on during the movie is distracting. which IMAX screen and which normal screen would you recomend that have lights actually off during the movie in london? thanks in advance also which imax has better legroom as a tall person.
Best explanation ever about Imax Projector.

@@boredtech no worries, tks.
I was lucky enough to be at the festival and see most of the films. It was quite an experience.

I bet it was unforgettable experience.
I guess the lamp reached it’s 1000th hour during the showing of Oppenheimer I was in 😢. At least we got refunds, and did manage to see most of it (which looked amazing)
Oh, that must be frustrating, which theatre you were at?
@@boredtech this one, the science museum!
I didn't know I needed a video like this. Hope I can see Interstellar in an IMAX theatre again soon

Another cool video would be a 70mm IMAX dome. The way the projector rises to position leads to a very interesting film path. I've seen it in person, through tinted glass, but an in depth video would be great.

I'd like an Imax film cell :) New Zealand, Christchurch. Honestly, Dunkirk has to be one of my favorite movies of all time
Love your video! I have always wondered 1. How does digital audio work with physical film 2. If they are loaded separately, how to ensure synchronization 3. How did the illumination work to support such a high intensity of light flux. Your video has answered all of them and given a lot of information that is very interesting. If the giveaway is still going on, I want an IMAX film cell, I'm based in California, USA.
The Science Museum are really proud of their 70mm IMAX projector, they went to great lengths to say Oppenheimer is on 70mm film IMAX.
They also upgraded to having dual laser IMAX last year as well, saw Dune with the lasers and it was amazing. They were less than a handful of places to get Force awakens and Last Jedi in IMAX 70mm print.
@@InsightfulUndercurrents Yes they closed the Ronson Theatre to move everything around to install the laser IMAX alongside the 70mm shortly after I saw Apollo 11: First Steps there (on 70mm film IMAX of course).
In August I'll fly from Italy to London for a little trip just to experience Oppenheimer on 15/70MM Imax at the BFI. Already booked, hope it will be awesome.
Will you get the chance to experience it in 15/70MM?
Great video by the way, as always!
Yes, Science Museum IMAX, BFI IMAX and VUE Printworks in Manchester will be showing it from 15/70mm film.
Thank you and I'm glad you liked the video!
What is the process of setting up for the next showing? Do they just leave it on and rewind it, also at regular play speed or accelertated for time constraints betwen showings? Or do they have to remove the film and reverse it somehow?
Interesing stuff! Thanks for this detailed video!
The way IMAX feeds from the centre you don't need to rewind them, you just play the platter it spooled onto when it came out of the projector.
Really interesting video. Keep up the good work!

Hello, today only I bumped into your channel and must say that my thirst to know about the IMAX tech is getting quenched by watching your videos.

"I want IMAX Film Cell, India, Tamil Nadu, Chennai"
Have you seen the process when they have to edit all the small reels together
Possibly, stay tuned 😉
The more and more I watch these the more I doubt that all the extra faff for Imax films is not worth it!
When I worked as a projectionist running 15/70 systems, we had to move the platters by hand, as in two guys lifting the platter... it was a little ridiculous. Fortunately we didn't run feature length films.
Keep it up! I know I asked before but I hope they will allow you to tour The Prince Charles sometime, such a different end of the spectrum of film on film than IMAX 15:70 but still just as interesting "I want IMAX Film Cell, United Kingdom, London"
