Episode 07: Manuel Götz
from The Dead Pixel Podcast Hosted by Lee Kline
The discussion of film scanning doesn’t come up too often. A lab has a scanner of their choosing for various reasons, and we simply send our film to them for the scanning work asking little questions. But there are plenty of questions to ask with the biggest one being “is this the right scanner for this job?” Maybe it it is, maybe it isn’t. We spoke to Manuel Götz after seeing him teach Southeast Asian film archives students on how ARRI’s famous scanner works. With a huge range of options that could handle just about any piece of film from missing sprockets to shrunken frames that had no right getting through any scanner, the ARRI is the workhorse of many labs and archives throughout the world. Manuel shares his knowledge on the great ARRI machine but also his very interesting perspective on the future of scanning including AI.
