When the movie was released in July 1997 I had more or less the same beliefs I have now about the existence of God and the possibility of life elsewhere in the universe. Yet reading my review I find the movie didn't seem as brave to me then as it does now. Perhaps that's because I've since become involved in so much discussion about Creationism, another topic that stands at the intersection of science, politics and faith. Hollywood treats movies like a polite dinner party: Don't bring up religion or politics.

I am having difficulty with the newest version of imovie (10.1.2). I have found instructions online to burn a DVD for TV, but File - Share - File does not give me the option of 480p. Can anyone suggest a solution? Thanks.

The newest version of iMovie doesn't have the option to share to DVD. To burn a video DVD you would need to share your movie to your desktop as a file (480p setting doesn't matter), and then drag/import it into a DVD authoring program like iDVD or Roxio Toast. There also is a free on line program called Burn that you can get here: -osx.sourceforge.net/Pages/English/home.html

I have been using imovie for a while, and i now know the free thing always can not satisfy me, so i find a paid one which is very helpful and powerful and it convert videos to other formats videos in 480p, or 720p. More detail of this video converter, you can click:

480p option has nothing to do with it. You are able to export a playable movie, which means that iMovie has done its job. You were able to burn a DVD, which means that it rendered fine despite no 480p. No matter what resolution you export at, DVD will reduce it to standard 480p. DVD is a standard resolution delivery media.

Further, if you want to export at 480p from iMovie, then try putting a known 480p clip into your project as the first clip that you place in the project. That should set the export resolution to 480p. The resolution and frame rate of an iMovie project are determined by the first clip you place in the project. After placing that clip in and adding another clip, you can then delete the first clip.. The resolution will have been set and you should be able to export at 480p, though it won't make any difference to your ability to burn a DVD as you already have proven. The reason that you have not had the 480p option is likely because the first clip was not a 480p clip.

Hi,

thank you. I mainly focused on denoising options but based on my experience, Artemis LQ deforms noses and Artemis MQ introduces many artefacts to substrates like grass. To be honest now some more work is needed to improve models for 480p upscaling. Now I mainly use Artemis MQ for full HD denoising and must say it works well. I have compared with ALQ but again noses are deformed if people are in the clip. In the case of clips without people , ALQ also give good results. Great benefit is the fact it is done automatically.

In general Topaz is on good track, just upgrade some main issues. GAIA HQ is slow but effective for full hd upscaling, better than AHQ but slower, pity.

Follow this link to my older tutorial on how to Render 480p Video if you are using the older Vegas Movie Studio Version 10 and 9:

When 480p30 is broadcast on air, it is frame doubled then interlaced to 480i60. In case of 480p24, it is processed using the 3:2 pulldown technique to 480i60. In both cases the spatial resolution doesn't change, but the conversion to a interlaced format allows a direct digital to analog conversion for eventual broadcast on the analog television network.

What could've been a four-star film, instead devolves into a unexpected character reversal and placating of religious and secular viewer both ("We're not alone") in a misguided attempt to please everyone but should please no one.


For nearly its entirety (150m), Contact is a bold, engaging tale of interstellar messaging (Vega) with its protagonist, Dr. Ellie Arroway (Foster), giving one of filmdom's great speeches in her passion plea for "just the slightest bit of vision" from would-be sponsor, HR-Hadden, a John Hurt performance that should've nabbed him an Oscar (one nom: Best Sound). But in the final ten climactic minutes as Ellie testifies about her space trip in front of a hostile Senate which seems beset with a collective amnesia, forgetting the tsunami in science-bending advances that enabled construction of her machine, one riding on existitng Einsteinian theory (worm-holes), its "10,000" blueprints no Earthling, not even a filthy rich one, could've forged in secret, yet, our heroine completely unravels under what should've been easily handled, cynical questions (most from Sen James Woods who might've received an Oscar nomination himself) in an over-done show of emotion that completely conflicts with the strong-willed, spirited scientist-turned-space-traveler we'd come to cheer ("No evidence!" As if the Greys are handing out souvenir key-chains to their Contactees) (oy). When your boyfriend (McConaughey), as cool a dude as he be, becomes your only booster, someone in the script department surely lost their writing compass.


I like a good love story. Contact has a good love story. But the theme (planetary coupling) is too big for producers to've projected in half-measure. Zemeckis and WB erred in what appears a cave to fears of a status-quo backlash when they seriously deviated from Carl's novel by dumbing-it-down to implausibility (Senate snobs), maybe to intensify the love (Ellie-Palm), most likely to placate inter-galactic isolationists, i.e., god-fearing folk who worship for many reasons, though, "pursuit of truth" could hardly be called one of them, Joss (3.5/4).


For a film which projects better the hope that religion & science can, not only co-exist but work in harmony, watch Paramount's 1953 adaptation of HG Wells 1898 novel, The-War-of-the-Worlds. And while you're movie musing, find the early sci-fi title, Red-Planet-Mars (52) which may've been a basis for this 1997 feature. A curious opening contact with the Martian planet by an American science team is wasted when RPM devolves into ridiculous anti-Red, pro-religion propoganda. Pete Graves stars in what proves a continuation of his pain-in-the-neck "Pricehoffer" persona (Stalag17), but the storyline similarities are many, topped by a "Sparks" reference late. Just product from a parallel pelicula universe? Maybe (3.5/4).

All of the greatest work by the greatest scientists has been done while they were very young, when they were stupid enough to believe that two-plus-two-equals-five, and pursued it instead of listening to all of those who were much older and wiser who said Don't Waste Your Time. Einstein, it has been said, asked all of his important questions before the age of twenty-five, then spent the rest of his life working on them. `Contact,' directed by Robert Zemeckis, is the story of a young scientist, Ellie Arroway (Jodie Foster), who like Einstein and all the greats before her, has been asking questions and seeking answers since she was very young. And now, as a member of the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) team, she is able to pursue her obsession with the mysteries of the galaxies and the infinite universe that surrounds us. Her job is to sweep the skies, using the most sophisticated equipment available, for a signal from deepest space. It may be her job, but for Ellie it's a labor of love, for she is convinced that there is something, or someone, out there somewhere, because otherwise, she reasons, what a terrible waste of space it would be. Ellie may be a dreamer, but she knows in her heart that it is the dreamers who over the years have been responsible for making us evolve, making us learn and grow because they are the ones who take insane, foolish ideas and pursue them. And to her, two-plus-two will always be five.


 Ellie loves her job and believes in what she is doing, but it's been a struggle over the years, as she and others have had to constantly fight for the funding necessary to keep the project alive, begging for dollars from short-sighted, unimaginative people with vision that goes only as far as the bottom line of their budget book. It's been a tough row to hoe, and she's had to swallow a lot of pride over the years, but then one day it all pays off, when in one magic moment she hears what she's been waiting for all her life: A signal from a distant end of the galaxy-- someone attempting to communicate, to make contact, with the people of the Earth. 


Ellie and her team soon realize that, whomever it is, they are using the universal language of prime numbers in their attempts at making contact; and when Ellie deciphers the code, she discovers something monumental in the bargain. But it's a message of global importance, something much bigger than she and her team alone, and she soon find herself fighting to remain a part of the drama that is only beginning to unfold-- the first interaction between human beings and an alien life form. And it's only the beginning of the adventure and the wondrous places this film is about to take you.


 Jodie Foster gives a performance here that demonstrates what a gifted, talented actor she is. Her Ellie is convincing and believable, and someone to whom you can genuinely relate, no matter who you are or where you're from, because there is something universal in Ellie's passion and longing to discover the truth and to see beyond the veil of our limited mortal capacities. There's a strength to Ellie, born of a combination of intelligence and innocence, as well as tenacity and faith, and Foster manifests all of these complexities of her character beautifully, with a performance that should've landed her an Oscar nomination. In this role, she is simply as good as it gets.


 As the young Ellie, Jenna Malone gives a terrific performance, also, which certainly captures the same spirit that we find in the adult Ellie. And there's a maturity she brings to the character that far exceeds her years. She was a perfect choice for the part, and if this is any indication of what she is capable of, Malone has a successful career ahead of her.


 The supporting cast includes David Morse (Ted Arroway), Matthew McConaughey (Palmer), Geoffrey Blake (Fisher), William Fichtner (Kent), Tom Skerritt (David), James Woods (Kitz) and Angela Bassett (Rachel). Zemeckis did a brilliant job of bringing this film to fruition, especially in the way he allowed Foster the time to really develop her character, by giving her that extra moment at just the right time that ultimately meant so much in the final analysis. Too often it's those few minutes that wind up on the cutting room floor that make the difference between a good film and an exceptional one; and between Zemeckis and Foster, they took it to the edge by taking some chances to realize that combined vision, which in the end made this a great film. Thoroughly engrossing and entertaining, `Contact' will transport you to places you can only imagine, and it's all done with style and in a way that makes this a truly memorable cinematic journey. It's what the magic of the movies is all about. I rate this one 10/10. e24fc04721
