  3. Differentiating Questions • What do you offer that is unique or better? • Can a potential customer see the difference? • IOW- is it our difference or theirs? • How can we impact that differentiation?

  4. Calibration Basics • Clearer, more life-like image • Movies look like movies and teams look like teams • Colors are natural – not like cartoons • 3,000+ paid for services delivered weekly • $199 - $399 Panels, Projectors?

  5. Good Pictures and Human Factors • Dynamic Range • Color Saturation • Color Accuracy • Detail and Resolution

  6. Where it all comes from - The Standards • NTSC, ATSC, SMPTE, ITU, BBC, and CEA • All of these organizations have helped to develop, deploy and enforce standards. • Working with a “rule book” makes life easier

  7. What Changes Are Made and Why? • Black and White Level • Color/Tint • Sharpness • Gray Scale (the mix of color to make white/gray) • Primary Colors-Maybe Secondary's Too? –The color of the colors We will look at each step a little later

  8. Black Level (Brightness) • Preserves detail in darker scenes • Deep Blacks = Better Contrast Ratio

  9. White Level (Contrast) • Whiter Whites = Better Contrast Ratio • Avoiding Color Shift and “Clipping”
