We're only on the 4th CD / episode and already I'm veering dangerously close to breaking the one rule I set for this series - to keep it simple. The video is almost 6 minutes long and uses a ton of animation.

Came out nice though, I think. Please enjoy!

Even though I expected it, I still felt blue balled at the end.

Great video as always, D! Dink Thifferent.

Early broadcast tv was actually analog, the switch over to digital was pretty recent. Great episode, though! Love the lineart graphics of the camcorders and projectors!

Ha! Casted this video as soon as I saw it and when you mentioned it being played in a theater I was delighted that I'm probably the first to do so! https://i.imgur.com/85HIDjy.jpg

By the way, how do you do that awesome effect where both the resolution _and_ compression change in the beginning? I've always tried to mess with simulating compression in after effects but I can't seem to get it right.

Thanks! I mean... I did cover analog/digital pretty extensively in the frame rate episode. I'll also be touching more on it in the upcoming video on interlacing.

I used just the compression part of Red Giant's Glitch plug-in. I'm sure there are ways to do it with stock effects, but I was being lazy!

I saw Avatar in IMAX 3d when it came out. It was well shot (rendered) of course and finished with impeccable quality. Which was magnified in IMAX format. It looked amazing! A friend of mine worked on the movie as a compositor. He has assured me a few times that the film was built at 1920x1080. I am pretty sure if it looked good in IMAX it will be fine everywhere else. I have friends who have said 4k looks different than HD on their 4k tv, so I guess it does. But mostly, 1920x1080 works well for human eyes.

I think the time is perfect, there are subject more complex than other, feels normal to be a bit longer if needed!

Break the rules! Never compromise on your outstanding production quality!

Pixels is short for picture elements, embarrassed to say I didn't know that.

You completely forgot to mention the importance of using Gluten-Free Monster Cables to deliver the highest quality pixels. Surely you don't want the toxins in the wires leaking into the bits.

The video seems to be truncated, isn't it? Or is it a problem with my browser's playback...

I absolutely love the way you sign off for these CD episodes.

Great episode! Did you have to recreate that portion of the IMAX vanity card?

Is It Real

This was great! Please do one of these on how old films are changed from 240p black and white to HD color!

Great work. It may not be getting any simpler for you to create, but damn, it's all worth it for us plebes!

Katie Lacy

Loving this series! Thanks for all the hard work you put in.

Per Albert Einstein: "Everything should be made as simple as possible - but not simpler." - heck you didn't even mention the arcane 1970's flight simulation trick of dynamically varying the resolution in order to maintain frame rate under varying computational loads...

Yeah - and where the heck did that 'X' come from?! (Not to mention voxels and texels).

How hard you work Captain! I admire your work!!!
