35mm is almost certainly the most expensive since you'll probably have to buy a full on 400' roll (~$300 from B&H right now).<br><br>Digibeta and Betacam are pretty commonly used in TV production stuff (from my experience as being a tech director on 1 closed circuit TV station), so you may get lucky and one of the independent TV stations in the city may have the equipment to do this for you on the cheap. Additionally, the physical media should be cheaper than the other options. <br>
<br>Digibeta raw media runs from $15 - $60 depending on runtime (cheapest = shortest = 12min.)<br>Betacam-SP raw media runs from $15 - $35 depending on runtime (cheapest = shortest = 15min.)<br><br>The only tricky part will be the PAL thing. If a local studio has the beta equipment, they may only have it in NTSC. But, it won't hurt to ask (and a lot of the fancy pro stuff has a little lever you can switch to do either scan mode anyways).<br>

I want to send one of my films to a film festival. The chance to survive the<br>
first round equals zero. However, I want to try my luck.<br>
<br>
I have to choose one of the following projection formats. What do you think<br>
would be the best/cheapest/easiest format when I send my DVD to a company<br>
for transfering the movie? Or maybe one of has such a system?<br>
<br>
- 35 mm<br>
- Digibeta PAL<br>
- Betacam-SP PAL<br>
- DCP (JPEG 2000)<br>
- HDCAM PAL (no SR)<br>
