Eclipse in IMAX 70mm - NYC Lincoln Square Screening

Hey all! In 2024 I drove across the country to shoot the last total solar eclipse visible from the US for the next 20 years on two 65mm film cameras. I'm screening the film in IMAX 70mm at Lincoln Square in NYC on June 17th at 12pm.

This is the first ever film to show a total solar eclipse in realtime without a filter on 65mm, which is only possible with celluloid (a digital sensor would fry). The film shows the full transition from partial to total eclipse and back in the highest quality imaging format in the world.

Following the screening, I’ll be giving a presentation about the making of the film, including how the one-of-a-kind camera system was assembled, how the footage was captured without melting the film negative, and a behind-the-scenes look at the journey to cross the country and find clear skies in time. Also worth noting is that it's the longest continuous shot ever projected in IMAX 70mm (~half a mile of film)!

Also, all attendees will receive a 70mm film strip with images from the film.

If you're interested, you can get tickets here. I would love to have made them cheaper, but they're priced such that I will just barely break even if the theater sells out. These screenings are incredibly difficult to arrange so this may be the first and last time it screens in New York City.

If anyone has questions about the project, ask away! There's also some more info on the main website and on Instagram.

Only piece of IMAX film I own (SCANS INCLUDED, SORRY FOR BAD QUALITY CUZ OF REDDIT COMPRESSION)

Yeah yeah yeah the movie wasn't received well (I loved it tho icl i thought it was peak maybe i might be stupid), but you can't deny that this was a great looking movie especially when projected on IMAX 70mm. Lawrence Sher shot the f out of this movie, goated visuals and great cinematography.
