Thanks for the suggestions on my last post, the post house I'm using needs this for 35 mm output: 1280 x 720 square pixel format, 24 fps, and that's for 1:1.85 not animorphic but hey, not many people care. It also needs to be in quicktime 5 format and cut into files of 20 min. for the film reels. And they can even do a Dolby SRD soundtrack. Thought some of you might like to know.

20 minute quicktimes at 1280 X 720? Man, that's going to be one HUGE file! Good to know the general target resolution for 35mm, though. Thanks, Goofball....

Interesting. In the other post I rambled on about the resolution being much higher. But, then again, we also talked about how every post house is different. I guess that their output device is capable of that, even though 35mm can support a higher rez. It is, after all, an analog medium! That IS gonna be a HUGE file! About 95 Gig per 20 minutes I believe! Hope you have a bunch of firewire drives just sittin' 'round doin' nut'in. Good luck! :>

Yeesh... and it takes me two days to do a minute-long 600x400. Yeah, so I use 12-layer procedural texes and high-poly models- if you're doing that resolution, you'd better be, too.
