Abstract: With the emergence of new digital video recording formats and the growing quality of video origination equipment, it has become attractive for many producers to consider these technologies in the production of features for television while addressing the possibility of a theatrical film release. This study attempts to compare, through the subjective evaluation of selected video and film-originated scenes, the various options that are available to the low-budget filmmakers. We tested a range of digital video cameras and digital video recording formats and compared them to film origination which has been a reliable benchmark when it comes to quality theatrical viewing. This paper describes the production of the test materials and the nature of the comparative evaluation which should help the viewers come to their own conclusions.
