The
"System 65" on a 30-foot Technocrane with the director, Bruce Sears,
dictating a shot.

I just recently came across your newsletter website and am appreciative to
see such dedication for Large Format cinema. My name is James Tavella. I
produced a 65mm multi-camera shoot last summer. A bold step, but one the
production team and my Director partner, Bruce Sears, was willing to
undertake in a joint cooperation with Kodak and Panavision. The fantastic
40-person crew, under the advisement of 65mm specialist James Dixon,
accomplished a difficult task of shooting the music presentation. Don Earl,
who was a welcomed guest, watched with intrigue and shared many historical
stories and valued insights on the equipment. The film was processed at CFI
labs. The shoot was published in the January 2004 edition of Modern drummer
magazine.

The
2nd System 65 on Dolly.

My personal love for large format photography is something I’ve always
shared with such films as “Ben Hur” and “Lawrence of Arabia”. But my partner
Bruce Sears and my own endeavor into carefully learning and working with
large format photography began after seeing IMAX works like “Amazon” and
“Everest”, and also the 70mm production of Kenneth Branagh’s “Hamlet”.
Bruce and myself are currently in the process of cutting the
behind-the-scenes video footage. Would you be interested in hearing more
about our production?
Thank you for your time.

Dear Thomas,
Thank you for your encouraging response on our 65mm production. I will be
assembling the package of materials and details you have requested for your
review. The Director and myself are still cutting of the behind the scenes
footage which alone is exciting to watch. Unfortunately I don t have a DVD
for review as of yet since we are still prepping to cut and mix the music
for the footage.
I went ahead and attached a couple of photos (of the shoot) for your review
and feedback. I will keep in touch and let you know how things are
progressing. Once again, thank you.
