little cameras," Goldblatt says. "We got
additional angles and some very
dramatic footage."
A sixth camera was added just for
this concert: an Ikegami EC-35 video
camera with a B-mount Canon 5:1 lens.
The actual 1971 concert had been
videotaped with a Sony AVC-3400
PortaPac; when the production couldn't
find one in working condition, DIT
Nathaniel Miller suggested a vintage
Ikegami, another popular model in the
early 1970s. The footage captured with
the EC-35 by Henry Cline, the onstage
(and on-camera) operator, was edited
into the movie.
"The signal from the Ikegami was
sent to an analog DigiBeta deck on set,"
notes Miller. "The tape was then sent to
Technicolor Hollywood, where they
created DPX files that were ingested
and treated as a 'digital negative.'" The
Ikegami tripod and the vintage musical
instruments came from prop house
History for Hire and from a private
collector.
At several points throughout the
film, including a shot at the start of the
Paris concert scene, Brown speaks
directly into the camera. Taylor explains,
"I was playing with this idea that James
Brown begins
working with
manager Ben Bart
(Dan Aykroyd,
top left), who
pushes the
singer's
reputation as a
tireless live
performer.
