Illya's Short End this week is "8K."
Ben's Short End is the Showtime original series "Shooting Virtual Reality"
Correction: Illya mentions that noted cinematographer Sven Nykvist is related to "Nyquist Theory" but then gets distracted and unfortunately never explains that Sven Nykvist could use Nyquist Theory to describe the process of retaining the look of film after going through a telecine process. The reality is that Sven Nykvist and the Nyquist-Shannon Sampling Therom are of course unrelated, but you can learn more about Nyquist-Shannon here.
