- Abstract
- On May 18 and 19, 2001, the Hollywood section held its annual Spring Seminar, in cooperation with USC Cinema's Entertainment Technology Center. The theme was “The Cinema - Now and the Future.” Because the event was held in the Entertainment Technology Center's Digital Cinema Laboratory, it was possible to show a wide variety of both 35mm film and digital material in high quality presentations to an industry audience of more than 400, including guests. After the Seminar, an online survey was posted and its link sent to every attendee's email address. Out of 375 paid attendees, 110 responded over the next month. The responses provide an insight into how industry professionals view the strengths and limitations of cinema digital display in its current form compared with film display at its best. Their overall view rated film as superior, but digital performed well, especially considering the immaturity of its technology compared with that of film.
