    • An excellent example of disruptional technology
If you are a fan of Clayton Christensen's "The Innovator's Dilemma" and other books that were made even more famous with Steve Jobs endorsement for his use on Apple products, this film will show you the human side of a disruptional technology familiar to us all: digital video and how it has essentially dislocated all photochemical-based motion pictures. My initial viewing of this film was via Amazon Prime streaming video, but the film continues to fascinate me each time to the point that I bought a Blu-Ray disk to enjoy not only the main film, but also some of the rather brief outtakes and deleted scenes, which, in themselves are of interest to folks like me that study technology cycles and their effects on organizational culture. This film is literally brimming with face-to-face interviews of film-industry directors, directors of photography (DPs, a.k.a. cinematographers), film and digital colorists, film vs. digital editors, new digital camera manufacturers (like Red) and their sales staff, and finally Keanu Reeves, who serves as the host interviewer. Although the interviews are straightforward and are conducted in real-time, i.e., cut-and-break sequences are not used, I see something different that I missed each time that I've watched them: suppressed, seemingly rational-but-actually irrational reasoning, or otherwise obtuse rationale for opposing the introduction of high quality digital video. This includes perceived loss of control, loss of nostalgia, loss of film-unique special effects, self-archiving properties of film (actually, this is not a valid point), and other even more obtuse rationale, such as "I don't like digital -- because it makes it too easy". This from major film figures--including well known directors. It also puts into perspective an industry that actually cares what their customers think about their products' technical quality--as opposed to, for instance, the music recording industry that obviously doesn't care, as evidenced by "loudness war" digital audio media. I can't begin to tell you of the many lessons learned and enjoyment at watching these interviews as the film unfolds by subject area and by time of technology insertion into the industry. Highly recommended, including the short "extras" on the BD version. ... show more

    • Good film
The comparisons of filmmakers and the preference for film or digital, and the slow progression to digital filmmaking is interesting and makes for a pretty good film.

    • Excellent information about the move to digital
Like most people, I've heard about the strides that digital filmmaking has made since the beginning but in gliimpses. This disc put together all these separated bits and pieces into a comprehensive overview that finally allowed be to see the step-by-step progress of this new way of making films, all the way from the CCD prototype from Bell Labs and the beginnings of using it for serious filmmaking with the Dogme 95 movement in Denmark, all the way to today's digital projection and the use of such advanced cameras as the RED Epic. It shows both sides (photochemical film vs. digital) too with the Pros and Cons of each. It ends with the mention of films being shot with the new DSLRs which can shoot high definition video. The sound and picture quality was excellent and there were some beautiful shots from movies I've seen that makes me want to see them again. The price of the disc seems a bit more expensive than other discs but because of its uniqueness and quality, it is well worth the premium. If there is one thing I would hope for about this movie, it's that it would come out with later editions as the technology continues to change. In the short time since this movie has been out there is now the Black Magic camera available to filmmakers and the impending release of the Bolex D16 digital camera which has some new reimaginings of how a digital camera can be built. ... show more

    • For fans of “behind the scenes” types of docs this one is great
Im not going to go into a moment to moment review of the movie. What I will say is that its fascinating to me and probably will be for everyone interested in cinema as craft, cinema as art AND the ongoing evolution of image capture; from film to digital.

    • Great for New Multimedia Student or those interested in Film history/future
Some really interesting information for new film students and or media arts folks. Loved hearing from all those that were interviewed. I was surprised at times of what some had to say about the Film/Digital changes. I know that those with lots of knowledge on the ins and outs of movie making/Film will not really get much from this but I think that they would get something out of this documentary. I recommend it for Classes on this subject matter. I am happy that someone actually brought this on to a forum via documentary DVD so it can bring on discussions about it. Happy to have it in my Collection. Of course, as a fan of Keanu, It is always exciting to me to see him when he is passionate about something and to see him really get into something that matters to him. Plus I could listen to his voice for hours. Nice job guys on this. Now I do have to say that I think that the case that the DVD came in could have been better quality but that is an easy fix for me. Love the extra sleeve/cover though. ... show more

    • Cinema embracing the electronic age
As a long-time keen photographer the change from film to digital for movie production had to be intriguing. Here, mainly prominent movie directors and technicians, toss the pros and cons of the electronic age invading their industry. It becomes a tad academic given that is is increasingly becoming impossible to shoot a movie on film. Technical services for film production are almost non-existent. Although digital movies have some progress to make to be equal to film, particularly in the field of archiving electronic generated images, the technology is still evolving. A thorough look at the subject. I am keen to view Side by side a few more times to take the details onboard. ... show more
