"Production has officially begun on Marc Webb's sequel to last year's The Amazing Spider-Man! Webb himself tweeted the below image with the message "Day 1. #anamorphic #film #philthecameraoperator"

Although the first film was shot digitally on the RED Epic, Webb seems to be going the celluloid route this time. There's no word yet on whether that will continue throughout the production or if there's something unique about today's production.

The film will see Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, and Martin Sheen reprising with Jamie Foxx joining as Electro, Shailene Woodley as Mary Jane Watson, Dane DeHaan as Harry Osborn, Paul Giamatti as the Rhino and Felicity Jones in an unnamed role."

Does it mean we'll get treated a post-production conversion?

Perhaps he'll shoot the 3D scenes in digital.

How was the 3-D in John Carter? I saw it in 2-D, but I know it was shot on film and converted to 3-D.

Film or digital won't make any difference when it comes to conversion. But you have to use digital for natively shot 3D.

I don't know if there are film 3D cameras in use currently in Hollywood, but building one would be easy. You are just recording two images at the same time, and you can do that on film as well. A bit larger and clumsier camera setup perhaps, but doable.

Having 4K image instead of 2K does make the conversion theoretically easier. You have more data, a larger image with more detail, and thus it's easier to separate the different planes of depth. At least it's easier to do a good job at it.

Shooting 4K on film again requires a larger camera.

I disagree. Not amazing, but far better than many conversions.

Tarantino would not approve
