Oscar-winning cinematographer Claudio Miranda used a 4K camera to shoot Iceland exteriors for “Oblivion.”
This story first appeared in the April 12 issue of The Hollywood Reporter magazine.
Broadcasters are getting ready to up the ante again. While the switch to HDTV wasn’t completed until 2008, the 90,000 delegates heading to Las Vegas for the annual National Association of Broadcasters convention will be focused on the future of Ultra HDTV. That, in turn, hinges on the introduction of 4K, a supersharp image format that offers four times the resolution of HD.
Already, films like Oblivion, Tom Cruise’s sci-fi adventure opening April 19, are being shot with 4K cameras. And major sporting events such as the 2014 FIFA World Cup and the 2016 Summer Olympics could air in the format.
