Hmmm... 50 Euros for a HD transfer DID sound too good to be true.
Hang on. Surely with more than one contributor to the 'experiment' you should have received more than 50 Euros, didn't you bender? bebbaboo put in $20(US I presume?) and so did I, that's $40US plus bits here and there. So how much is there left after paying the dodgy telecine, if there's any left?
(Not that I care about the money donated, but if you wanna do a true HD transfer - which hopefully costs only 300 Euros - at least give us an idea how much more to raise from this point forward.)

i also contacted another company who does real telecine and asked them what it would cost to do the trailer. i hope i'll receive an answer tomorrow but don't it will be cheap, actually i guess it will be around 400 €.

i wanna help too
i found a company mabey
just try and ask them
www.dvcuts.com

i already found a new company and they made me an offer which is really good. i gonna call them this week for an apointment. i'll let you guys know.
btw, this new company is a real pro-house so we can expect the quality we're looking for. nonetheless i gonna ask for a sample work so i going to see what they produce
so stay tuned for a new update in 1 or 2 weeks
-
Any new news on this? I was eager to see how it turned out.
-
sorry folks for the delay of an updated news, which wasn't my fault
yesterday i called with the company again and thy told me that they where ready for the scanning and so i received an offer. this offer knocked me down for good. the price for the setup of the machine and scanning at 2k res would be 887,50 € + tax now you can say "why do 2k res, why not do something below?" you're right, but that below would "only" be pal res (720x576) and the last offer for that was 50,- € + tax + shipping.
the quality would be like you see on new trailers for example on warner dvds.
i'm surely not going to ask you guys to pay 900 € for trailer, nore would i wanna pay for that. put the money for better use i say. but standard-res would nice too.
so it's up you how we work this out: we either drop the ball or we do a dvd res version, which would be good as there is no other real dvd source out there
those who contributed, it's your call i'd say "let's do it anyway, even it's only dvd res"
-
I agree. Go with the DVD res.
-
Go for it
I'm sure we can all come up with a bit more money to make this happen. Just let us know. Also, can you translate that into $ so this dumb American can know exactly what we're talking about?
-
we're talking about $1.100 + tax + shipping + data storage

Is this DVD res anamorphic?
-
So, let me get this straight: the DVD res will be in PAL, which means once it's transferred you still have to do go through the re-adjustment to get around the PAL speedup? Or are they going to do the telecine 24f progressive scan?
For to do the 2k transfer, you need around 100 members donating ~$20US each. I don't know we had that many people donating last time.
More importantly, are we absolutely certain that we can trust these people that they will give us a decent transfer, unlike those crooks you dealt with last time which outsourced the job to some bonzos?
I say do the DVD res too. But I wanna make sure that my money is well-spent and actually get good results this time.
-
the scanned file will be a bit more then 720x576. i have to crop it all myself. it will be native 24fps progressive. but i can make either a pal or a ntsc res version. i dunno if it's anamorphic, but i'll surely ask if they get the contract.
as for the quality, they assured me it's top notch. they don't wanna have 1000 dollar for nothing if you do a 2k res scanning

(And hopefully they're not referring to the quality of, say, the Constantine international trailer. )
