The Hateful Eight (2015)
The Hateful Eight resurrects the glorious Ultra Panavision 70 format with the uber-wide 2:76 aspect ratio. The 65mm film used to capture the format combined with 1.25x anamorphic lenses creates the final wide image projected at 70mm. Most of us have never and probably will never shoot in the Ultra Panavision 70 format but that doesn’t mean we can’t replicate the aspect ratio.
The claustrophobic cabin
In my Ultimate Aspect Ratio Guide post I gave examples of 70 different film formats and aspect ratios. I included 72 FREE aspect ratios templates.
In honor of the glorious return of the Ultra Panavision 70 aspect ratio…
I’ve packaged the 2:76 templates in all 8 resolutions for your next project.
These PNGs (HD/2K/3K/UHD/4K/5K/6K) will work in any NLE or VFX software.
Just drag and drop above your footage.

Even dialog sounds better in 70mm
Until next time…
