September 21, 2016—September 12th at IBC 2016 in Amsterdam, marked the second stop of Ang Lee’s “whole shebang” world tour of his upcoming release Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk. The movie is set to create new milestone in cinematic presentation quality using the latest technology to deliver stunningly crisp, realistic images and an immersive, intimate experience. In the process of deciding what format to shoot and which formats to release they ended up going all-in; 3D at 120 frames per second (per eye), 4k resolution, 6P laser illumination, 28 foot-lamberts (per eye) with a high dynamic range version too. Martin Howe of TEQ4 had insider access at the screening and wrote the following article for Blooloop.
