    • @Pauldjreadman
      @Pauldjreadman Před 3 lety +19

      Restore is cleaning the original,, scanning in 4k then taking out all the marks, restoring the sound and then release it. The original film is copied to another reel because they last up to 500 years. Digital doesn't last that long. Ever time another format comes a long they have to convert again as anything new is not comparable with the new format. I have been watching many videos on the subject.

    Question would be how do we little people that have old 1980’s movies remaster to a higher quality version of 1080P of today?

    • @downwiththatsortofthing624
      @downwiththatsortofthing624 Před 5 lety +4

      That would be a dumb question, and your answer even dumber - Any DVD that has higher quality that Blu-ray, must have had the Blu-ray mastered by an idiot. I don't just mean the resolution, but the storage mediums are orders of magnitude smaller/bigger. So anything made on Blu-ray, to proper standards, will always be a better copy of the original - larger colour palette, higher bit rate keeping more of the contrast, its no contest! Blu-ray is king (4k can be much better, but the increase in quality isn't as noticeable immediately unless its a HDR remaster, but its there too even without HDR)!

    I feel like watching this should've been more interesting but this guy David somehow takes the joy right off screen. His sentences are just piling words on top , waiting for the other guy to finish his sentence. Dude's got massive ego - look at the worker whoose speaking, not into the camera so you can stare at yourself later.

    • @singingsheepytps9240
      @singingsheepytps9240 Před 6 lety +3

      The shorts were most likely made either on digital video or 8mm. Digital video would probably be more or else 480p, and 8mm has a maximum horizontal resolution of 900 pixels and maximum vertical resolution of 1200pixels. This is close to a 720p resolution which isn't a very significant increase, but with their restoration it would look very nice.
