<div>Hi everyone,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>You might already be familiar with a 9.5mm reduction print "home cinema" version of Ozu Yasujiro’s
<i>Tokkan Kozo</i> (sometimes translated as “A Straightforward Boy, 1929), transferred to 35mm by the NFAJ and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gshM6WBr1nU">available on YouTube</a> (it was also screened at the Pordenone Silent Film Festival in 2001). A
slightly longer version (also 9.5mm home cinema version) was donated to Ota Yoneo's Toy Cinema Museum (Omocha eiga myujiamu) a few years ago, and it was digitally scanned by IMAGICA WEST, Corp. We made a DCP of this scan here at the University of Rochester
Digital Scholarship Lab, and this DCP was screened at Pordenone last October (2018). From July 19-25, this version will be available to watch online for free at the curated site,<a href="https://www.lecinemaclub.com/">
</a><a href="https://www.lecinemaclub.com/">Le Cinéma Clu</a><a href="https://www.lecinemaclub.com/">b</a>. (For more on their recently re-launched platform check this
<a href="https://www.indiewire.com/2019/05/le-cinema-club-relaunch-1202141905/">Indiewire article</a>.) You can read a bit about the original theatrical release and this shorter version in the Pordenone catalogue, <a href="http://www.giornatedelcinemamuto.it/en/tokkan-kozo/">here</a>.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In making the DCP, DSL worked to improve image stability and sharpness, initially using a deep-learning application to double the resolution of each individual frame of IMAGICA’s standard definition transfer to increase resolution for the HD (2K) DCP,
with final touches (subtitles, stabilization, speed) in DaVinci Resolve.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Just a heads up - it’s a fun way to spend 15-20 min. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>best,</div>
<div>Joanne</div>
