:''This article focuses on digital image capture for movies. For digital projection and distribution, see digital cinema.'' Digital cinematography is the process of capturing (recording) motion pictures as digital video images rather than traditional analog film frames. Digital capture may occur on video tape, hard disks, flash memory, or other media which can record digital data through the use of a digital movie video camera or other digital video camera. As digital technology has improved in recent years, this practice has become dominant. Since the mid 2010s most of the movies across the world are captured as well as distributed digitally.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Qube Cinema Supports Cinecolor in Its Transition to Digital Cinema in Latin America )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=How Digital Conversion Is Killing Independent Movie Theaters )〕 Many vendors have brought products to market, including traditional film camera vendors like Arri and Panavision, as well as new vendors like RED, Blackmagic, Silicon Imaging, Vision Research and companies which have traditionally focused on consumer and broadcast video equipment, like Sony, GoPro, and Panasonic. ==History== Beginning in the late 1980s, Sony began marketing the concept of "electronic cinematography," utilizing its analog Sony HDVS professional video cameras. The effort met with very little success. However, this led to one of the earliest digitally shot feature movies Julia and Julia to be produced in 1987.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Julia and Julia (1987) )〕 In 1998, with the introduction of HDCAM recorders and 1920 × 1080 pixel digital professional video cameras based on CCD technology, the idea, now re-branded as "digital cinematography," began to gain traction in the market. Shot and released in 1998, ''The Last Broadcast'' is believed by some to be the first feature-length video shot and edited entirely on consumer-level digital equipment.〔The Last Broadcast is A First: The Making of a Digital Feature http://www.thelastbroadcastmovie.com/〕 In May 1999 George Lucas challenged the supremacy of the movie-making medium of film for the first time by including footage filmed with high-definition digital cameras in ''Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace''. The digital footage blended seamlessly with the footage shot on film and he announced later that year he would film its sequels entirely on digital video. Also in 1999, digital projectors were installed in four theaters for the showing of The Phantom Menace. In May 2001 ''Once Upon a Time in Mexico'' became the first well known movie to be shot in 24 frame-per-second high-definition digital video, partially developed by George Lucas using a Sony HDW-F900 camera, following Robert Rodriguez's introduction to the camera at Lucas' ranch whilst editing the sound for ''Spy Kids''. In May 2002 ''Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones'' was released having also been shot using a Sony HDW-F900 camera. Two lesser-known movies, ''Vidocq'' (2001) and ''Russian Ark'' (2002), had also previously been shot with the same camera, the latter notably consisting of a single long take. Today, cameras from companies like Sony, Panasonic, JVC and Canon offer a variety of choices for shooting high-definition video. At the high-end of the market, there has been an emergence of cameras aimed specifically at the digital cinema market. These cameras from Sony, Vision Research, Arri, Silicon Imaging, Panavision, Grass Valley and Red offer resolution and dynamic range that exceeds that of traditional video cameras, which are designed for the limited needs of broadcast television. In 2009, ''Slumdog Millionaire'' became the first movie shot mainly in digital to be awarded the Academy Award for Best Cinematography〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Silicon Imaging )〕 and the highest grossing movie in the history of cinema, ''Avatar'', not only was shot on digital cameras as well, but also made the main revenues at the box office no longer by film, but digital projection. In late 2013, Paramount became the first major studio to distribute movies to theaters in digital format eliminating 35mm film entirely.〔 ''Anchorman 2'' was the last Paramount production to include a 35mm film version, while ''The Wolf of Wall Street'' was the first major movie distributed entirely digitally. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「digital cinematography」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
