Back from a great transfer session - all I can tell you is we spent lots of time on Dancing Dildos and Honey, Whatcha Doin' Tonight, and we color corrected every shot, fixed the bad framing issues on certain shots and these numbers look incredible now. The internegative is really in good shape, I have to say. And the color has never EVER looked like this - it's so accurate now it just makes me deliriously happy. Also fixed terrible framing issues in Lesbian, Butch, Dyke that have always been there. We kind of made an attempt to fix them on the DVD but we've REALLY fixed them for this transfer. Our director of photography never knew when to tilt up or pan or not to pan or not to tilt - it's like he was taken by surprise anytime anyone moved anywhere - even though he'd watched three or four rehearsals in a row. But now, we've pretty well fixed his errors. We only have fifteen minutes left on reel five, so we should be able to finish tomorrow - whether we actually have time to lay it back to digital tape I don't know - Let 'Em Eat Cake will require some time to get right, another number that's never looked very good - there'll be some reframing things, some major color correction and hopefully it will come out as well as the rest.
