Industrial Light & Magic(ILM), a division of Lucas Digital
|
|
Ltd. LLC, implemented its own extended dynamic range file
|
|
format in Summer 2000. The existing 8-bit file format used
|
|
at the time could not accurately reproduce images with
|
|
extreme contrast between the darkest and brightest regions,
|
|
or images with very subtle color gradations.
|
|
|
|
ILM's extended dynamic range file format has been employed
|
|
successfully in the movies Harry Potter, Men in Black II,
|
|
and Signs. Several shows currently in production at ILM are
|
|
using the new format.
|
|
|
|
Realizing that various other parties are interested in an
|
|
extended dynamic range file format, ILM decided to polish
|
|
its new file format a bit, and to publish it. OpenEXR is
|
|
the result.
