@@birdpump Can it also be done post hoc if it's shot at a resolution higher than required? So, zoom effects like that could be created without any noticeable loss of resolution. I have no idea, I'm just guessing/asking.
Sad to see this end, really great series and I really hope to see more good films to get shot and projected the best way. Hope to see you do this more!
The theatre I saw it had had the exact same red shipping crate out front for us to see and take photos with which was cool. A nice reminder of how much work goes into the final product.
I was lucky enough to be able to see Oppenheimer in 15/70mm and was completely blown away. I had no idea that they had people like you dedicated to making sure the screenings went smoothly.
@@RadioactiveDrew I knew there was a projectionist, I didn't realize they had dedicated ones like you for the entire run of the movie for months on end.
This is a really fantastic "wrap-up" look into the life of a projectionist! I discovered this channel with your setup for the first showing of this film. All of your videos are really insightful. It's been helpful to learning from your passion on radioactivity videos, this stuff really helps normalize the conversation on fears of radiation. This one was particularly interesting because it gives character to the mysterious, mostly unnoticed person who works the projection booth in theatres. I always wondered about them. My friends who worked in a nearby theatre to me always made it sound like "those are studio people, and they shuffle around" like they were contracted to work the theatres. Had I been a bit more curious, I may have gone down that path myself. I'd be interested to hear more about what the job is like and how the industry works. Seems like it would be fascinating to hear more about the ups and downs of the job. This one does a great job of really turning that limelight around. I'll check the channel for more to see what I may have missed. Oh, and the opening to this video was fantastic! Really nice shots and really well edited!
Excellent filming I had no idea how massive that film was, I remember as a kid watching the projectionist carry little suitcases into the projector room at the local theater Thanks for sharing this
I worked as a pipefitter for the IMAX theater at the New England aquarium, I installed the radiant tubing underneath the concrete, and also the cooling lines to the projector, this was probably the year 2002
There's something special about flicker film. I've always had a fascination with it, since I was a kid. Thinking about it, I'm surprised I've never got around to buying any movies on film and something to play them on. An original cinema release copy of Close Encounters of the Third Kind would be the pinnacle for me.
I felt like we were observing preparations for launch, not simply observing the smooth operation of a film screening. I suppose that's how you know good cinematography when you see it. Thank you for making this video.
I started this series at the start, really cool to see what goes into 70mm and stuff we just don't see. It looks like i wont get to see this at the cinema now (stopped showing where i live) but i will be buying it on Blu Ray to watch on my own home theatre setup. I will say these videos have inspired me to want to go to the cinema again, The last time i went was to see Glass.... (one of the best cinema experiences i have had by the way) i know.... a long time ago now... but covid has effected our habits and we tend to stay in a lot more now. I think i would like to go see a movie again as it has been so long now since i had a good cinema experience. A lot of it also comes down to the price too, its not amazingly cheap and i can make a real cinema experience at home now (even the real cinema popcorn and drinks cups! and legit pre movie reels i have made for it, a lot of work but well worth it). For special movies i am exited about i might get back out to the cinema i.e. Saw X looks really good and it is tempting, lets hope my anxiety allows me to get back out there and watch some good films! Anyhow, I just wanted to say thankyou for inspiring me to WANT to go back to the movies either digital or full on 70mm IMAX, and showing all the great work you have put in over the last 10 weeks. I really hope true film makes a comeback, its like an art form like vinyl or cassettes that have made a comeback and it keeps you in a job too! A lot of the digital cinemas like "the light" (my local) are just all automated and no person actually running anything, there is just something about knowing a dude in the booth is doing his / her best to make a great cinema experience for everyone. YOU ROCK BRO!!!
I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I use to go out to the movie theater in town but my wife and I would always complain to them about something being wrong with the picture or the sound was way too low. Going to movies where I can't go up into the projection booth and fix the problem is very frustrating, Most of the time I watch movies at home because I know how to make it look and sound amazing. I wish theaters would take the time to make their picture and sound be as good as it can.
Drew it was a pleasure meeting you at bunk sandwiches after the showing of the film one of those 195 times. Interesting conversation about some things radioactive. :) I have really enjoyed your channel and the Cinematography that you have created about this film showing. Even the installing of the new light for our theater. I hope this state treated you well and safe travels back to home.
Came here for the content on radiation but please do more 70mm content if you’re called in to be a projectionist in the future! Loved seeing Oppenheimer in 70mm
Thank you so much for sharing this 📽️ 🎥 Really cool stuff, had no idea 70mm film Reels were so Large! Thanks again for sharing some of ur private life. 📽️🍕🎼🎥🦆🎼🍕
195 showings. Incredible. Wish I could have seen it on 70mm in my country. You guys are so lucky! Really great video, Radioactive Drew. Thank you so much for these 70mm videos. Hope to see more in the future.
On one of your earlier Oppenheimer vids, I lamented that I didn't live near anywhere showing it in 70mm. Well, thanks to how many times they extended the run, I managed to see it on 70mm IMAX on a recent trip to LA, and wow. I feel so lucky - it was beautiful. Maybe you weren't so fond of these extensions, but I, and so many others, are grateful for dedicated projectionists like yourself for toughing them out.
I knew I wouldn't see the 70mm in theaters, since the closest 70mm theater to me is around 300 miles away and my life circumstances don't permit a trip like that right now. But knowing the final showing happened is still sad. It'd be nice if 70mm theaters did like one weekend a month where they show a bunch of movies.
Thanks for that! I learned something, I never knew how complicated that was, and I grew up going to movie theaters as the only option to see new movies. Bravo! Impressive series 👏
Very cool! I knew Imax film was played horizontaly, but I did not know 70mm was too! I don't know how you remember the threading order of the film! I can barely thread my reel to reel tapes onto the player haha!
Loved this video so much! Fascinating seeing how the entire production works behind the scenes, love how passionate you are. Question: so I saw Oppenheimer in 70mm in Arizona and they had no trailers. Why would they not attach trailers to the reel? Thanks again for your content!
Every theater is a little different in how they handle trailers. Some had no trailers, others had the two trailers I had and others had the film trailers in addition to the digital trailers. There didn't seem to be a standard.
I remember the brain and the tree very well. Looks almost exactly similar. That's cool how you can play it onto the shipping rail those. We had to wind it onto the little wheels. How did you get into this line of work? All your stuff is much more advanced and modern than what we had.
I started doing projection back in high school and then started doing it down in LA at Warner Bros studios. Never did any platters at the studios. It was all reel to reel changeovers.
Off topic but, I remember I told you of an old Quincy M.E episode where someone was killed with radiation at a construction site but couldn't remember the episode name. But, I just saw it again. Season 2, "Unfriendly Radiance".
@RadioactiveDrew There was another episode where a calibration or depth gauge tool with a Cobalt 60 source in it was used to murder someone. I really like Quincy M.E! They don't make shows like that anymore. No violence, no sex , no bad language, no gore, and best ot all, no political agenda.
Interesting. Back in the day, movies, films came in 3-5 canisters and two projectors were used and the light source was carbon arcing. What is the light source for the 70 mm platter style system? Must be hot as there are metal chimneys coming off the tops of the apparent light source.
That’s all I use to do was run changeover 35mm shows using two projectors. Never had to use carbon arc lamps. The lamps still used by film projectors are xenon.
Thanks Drew, for this wonderful series on 70mm and the excellent time lapse video are you created. Seeing the film and hearing the projector brings back memories of running science films though the 8mm projector back in 7th and 8th grade. I can smell the film even now. So, Drew, of your 195 showings, did you have any problems during any showings, such as a lamp going out or the film breaking? Or was it smooth sailing? Thanks again Drew.
I always like hearing about other people’s film memories. Film has a smell that is very unique. One of the few problems I had was some flicker with the bulb. I ended up changing it out. I showed that process in the first video in this series.
Absolutely incredible video again Drew. Thanks so much for these. Even though the music is awesome, I'm imagining having 'Can You Hear The Music' from the Oppenheimer soundtrack to this, it would be great 😁 I wish id gone to see the film a 2nd time now. But eagerly waiting on the 4K physical release 😊 Enjoy your break and thanks for your service 😊 Oh, and I've joined your Patreon 😀
Looks like at 8:40 the lights were up and the seats were empty. Are there many minutes of film that still need to be wound onto the platter after the credits end?? As someone who watches until the credits are done rolling, I guess I never thought of how much longer is the film running to the bitter end.
For Oppenheimer the print had about 6 minutes of credits. I would bring the lights up halfway when the first set of credits and then all the way up when the credit roll started.
The print had a little more dirt on it even after cleaning it every showing. There was also some gate scratches that would normally be hidden on the print but my aperture plate was over cut a little so you could see it.
Do you happen to know what they did with the vehicles they used in Oppenheimer or if you can get a hold of anyone to see if they are actually for sale? It would be much appreciated. Thank you.!!!
So cool!!!! Christie projectors all the way!! Love your stuff buddy! Been in production for 20 years… never got into the movie film world, just curious; this is gonna sound bad but I don’t mean it that way but what is the significance of the 70mm. Is this just how movies come? Did u order the 70mm special to show to a special audience? Does the audience know it’s 70mm? Or is this just regular movie goers? I’m asking because I have no clue how it works but it really looks cool, is this like a “throw back” type thing? Educate me.❤
It was interesting to see the print wound onto the shipping reel. Were the other two recent 70mm prints you've projected shipped in one big reel like this, or were they shipped in multiple smaller reels and spliced like I remember doing with 35mm feature films?
A pretty big difference between these two types of prints. Looks like from the math the 70mm 5-perf version was a little over 20,000 feet long. I would say it was around 150 lbs.
I think they check it to see if it’s going to be recycled or not. If it isn’t recycled then maybe it will be sent out to theaters wanting to rent a print.
@@RadioactiveDrew well we know they don't destroy all of them. many old 35mm prints now regularly showing up in collectors hands. also donated for non profit reasons initially npo use only?
They either get shipped back to the studio to be kept in their film library, back to the lab for recycling or to another film library off site. I'm sure after the film has stopped its theatrical run theaters can rent some of the prints.
unfortunate how many film producers nowadays seem to care more about profits than the movie. hence they just go for digital and wouldn't ever consider something special like film because the production costs would be higher.
Sorry Andy, but why Go and see a remake of a movie in which mad dog Murdoch played Oppenheimer so well? Maybe not being able to Pay with money and having ass sensitive seats so that you can’t watch two or three movies after you get in, and being harassed by the seat Nazi, it’s too much bullshit for me to ever go to a movie Theater. That in a ridiculous price of everything
Well first of all this isn't a remake, second...Fat Man and Little Boy was pretty horrible. Oppenheimer has its flaws but nothing compared to Fat Man and Little Boy.

Yeah, that was really nice!
Makes me cry another decent job will be no more.
@@JohnCarney-b9o IMAX will never die
@user-om1lx4jx4m I’m sure in the future there will be some more 70mm film jobs.
This way of projecting must never go away ❤
I hope it doesn’t. Would be something lost that’s for sure.
It won’t as long as seasoned directors like Tarantino and Nolan keep using it.
Best film I have seen in a very long time. Amazing to see the work behind making this happen in IMAX, or 70mm here. Fascinating
I especially loved your slow panning time lapses! The lighting and the smooth shots were amazing! I cant even imagine how you managed to do that
Automated slider or jib
@@birdpump Can it also be done post hoc if it's shot at a resolution higher than required? So, zoom effects like that could be created without any noticeable loss of resolution. I have no idea, I'm just guessing/asking.
You could, but not really, no parallaxing means you'll be able to tell.@@PBeringer
Sound captured well too!
That were some incredible shots showing the beauty and magic of analogue film!
Thanks.
Sad to see this end, really great series and I really hope to see more good films to get shot and projected the best way. Hope to see you do this more!
That beginning part was amazing it was truely a cinematic masterpiece
Thanks.
That was real nice. thank you for showing what it takes to show a 70 MM film. I hope to see more films in the future .

Thank you so much
Same here.
Saw it in 70mm IMAX in Providence RI. But seeing this behind the scenes showing with that film path is just wow! awesome! Thanks!
No problem, glad you enjoyed it.
Not sure why I was getting emotional lol! Phenominal video
I’m glad you felt something with this video.
So glad it’s back showing on 70mm. Wasn’t able to get tickets the first time, just purchased tickets, so excited to see it in 70mm!
That is pretty cool it’s back in theaters in 70mm.
that intro is absolutely phenomenal. thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it.
I really regret not seeing this more than once...
I worked as a pipefitter for the IMAX theater at the New England aquarium, I installed the radiant tubing underneath the concrete, and also the cooling lines to the projector, this was probably the year 2002
I really like the style of your videos. They’re like little documentaries into things the public wouldn’t see.
Really cool! Nice work, glad you were able to head home.
Never seen how a 70mm film is projected, it's pretty awesome. Thanks very much!

Didn't know movie theaters still show film I thought all theaters converted to digital.
Showing film now is a special event. Everything for the most part is digital now.
"Fascinating"
Fascinating to see thank you- great time lapse additionally.
Do you see any noticeable degradation in quality of image after all those showings?
Looks like at 8:40 the lights were up and the seats were empty. Are there many minutes of film that still need to be wound onto the platter after the credits end?? As someone who watches until the credits are done rolling, I guess I never thought of how much longer is the film running to the bitter end.
For Oppenheimer the print had about 6 minutes of credits. I would bring the lights up halfway when the first set of credits and then all the way up when the credit roll started.
How does the print look after all those showings? As good as new or starting to show signs of wear? And phenomenal camera work, by the way.
The print had a little more dirt on it even after cleaning it every showing. There was also some gate scratches that would normally be hidden on the print but my aperture plate was over cut a little so you could see it.
well done sir!
Great video. First one that I've seen of your videos. What theater were you working at?
I was working at the Regal Bridgeport Village theater.
I've never seen a 70mm show - have to seek one out
Wow
Do you happen to know what they did with the vehicles they used in Oppenheimer or if you can get a hold of anyone to see if they are actually for sale? It would be much appreciated. Thank you.!!!

The IMAX 70mm is 600pounds and 11miles long. Is there an difference to this "normal" 70mm film in length and weight?
A pretty big difference between these two types of prints. Looks like from the math the 70mm 5-perf version was a little over 20,000 feet long. I would say it was around 150 lbs.
@@RadioactiveDrew awesome, thank you!
its 2024. crazy this not all digital and automated
It is pretty wild that you were the projectionist of this movie. What are the odds.
and this video is cinema level 24fps
Thanks.
How'd you do the long pans? Software? Special camera rig?
It was a motion control rig on 6 feet of track. I think I posted some pictures of it on Instagram.
Do you know what happens to the film when is retourned back? I mean, is it destroyed, sold or stored? By the way, thats an impressive shipping box
They keep some for their archive...the ones that are in great condition. The others are cut up and recycled.
What do you suppose they do with the film when you ship it back?
I think they check it to see if it’s going to be recycled or not. If it isn’t recycled then maybe it will be sent out to theaters wanting to rent a print.
195 viewings, at what amount does the film degrade?
Do you have another gig lined up?
Thanks for all you do.
I thought that actual real film at movie theaters was done and over with more than 20 years ago. 7:17
What happens to the reels when the movie is done showing? Do they keep the reels somewhere or scrap them?
They probably store them in a factory or take it to whatever company owns that film.
@@shiven513 I would presume they are auctioned off for private use, but where would you buy one?
@spikester I’ve never heard of prints like this being auctioned off.

Hey Drew, where do the film reels get shipped to? Are they used at other theatres?
They either get shipped back to the studio to be kept in their film library, back to the lab for recycling or to another film library off site. I'm sure after the film has stopped its theatrical run theaters can rent some of the prints.
@@RadioactiveDrew thanks for the response! :) I can’t get enough of the 15/70 format
@MW2TrickshotCommunity I was projecting the 5/70 format. It’s way easier to project than IMAX.
So Drew, it feels like that theater is just going back into mothball.. Is there a regular guy who runs a digital system or what?
Is 195 the most times you've run a single movie in 70mm?
unfortunate how many film producers nowadays seem to care more about profits than the movie. hence they just go for digital and wouldn't ever consider something special like film because the production costs would be higher.
But the biggest question is who will take home the Great Divide trophy this year. (OK to delete, off subject email).

Do you have to give the print back to the studio?
Yes, it’s shipped back to them or the film lab Fotokem.
@@RadioactiveDrew About the platter getting a static charge, a thin chain can be hung to take the static off in the future.
@@thexfile. So, when it gets bumped and sucked into the reel . . .
@@kcgunesq The thin chain would be grounded, moving along the side of the platter.
8:07 Maybe it was radiation?
So are you ready to go home??? 😂😂
Iam spechless
Glad you liked it.
Sorry Andy, but why Go and see a remake of a movie in which mad dog Murdoch played Oppenheimer so well? Maybe not being able to Pay with money and having ass sensitive seats so that you can’t watch two or three movies after you get in, and being harassed by the seat Nazi, it’s too much bullshit for me to ever go to a movie Theater. That in a ridiculous price of everything
Well first of all this isn't a remake, second...Fat Man and Little Boy was pretty horrible. Oppenheimer has its flaws but nothing compared to Fat Man and Little Boy.
I’m starting the question the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bomb narrative. It just doesn’t add up. That was really cool btw.
Great time-lapse shots 🎥👍
