Abstract

The Science and Technology Council of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences is developing an architecture for digital motion picture mastering applications known as the Image Interchange Framework. As part of the architecture, a new optical printing density metric called Academy Printing Density (APD) and a new density encoding specification known as Academy Density Exchange Encoding (ADX) have been proposed. This paper will outline the need for a new printing density metric and encoding and detail many of the considerations in their design.
