Figure 2-3 Postproduction workfl ow: Shoot fi lm, record sound on tape, post in NTSC. Note that both camera and DAT
recorder run at “fi lm speed” during the shoot, but are slowed by 0.1 percent to “video speed” for the duration of postproduction.
The fi lm will again run at its natural speed once sound and picture are married on the release print. After
Avid editing, production sound can be imported (a) directly via an OMF or (b) conformed from the original tapes.
