Hi folks - Can someone confirm this definition:
When people "uprez" a film, it means they take a film shot in one aspect ratio (4:3 for example), crop the image, and blow up the resulting (remaining) rectangular image so it fits into the 16:9 or 1:85 or whatever you want.
It doesn't actually mean improving the image somehow from SD quality to HD.
In fact, the labor comes into making the newly-blown up image look as good as the original.
So "HD" in this case doesn't actually mean HD, it means "the aspect ratio associated with HD."
Is this all correct?
thanks much!
