Nowadays we talk a lot about “convergence of media” which integrates different mediums like television, film, web, phone etc. But before convergence or integration, we had a long period of preparation, when mediums, keeping theirs own specificity, tried to develop a mutual exchange experience both in the fields of expression and technology. An example is High Definition Television (HDTV). Before HDTV, two dominant moving image mediums, Television (electronic image) and Film (optical image), were separated. Their making processes were different and the collaboration between them was limited. With HDTV, because of its high visual capacity, electronic image production of Television and optical image production of Film become able to collaborate. Our study aims to overview different experiences of collaboration between HDTV and Film during 1980s and 1990s, to show problems encountered and resolved through the collaboration, and to consider what happens when two distinct mediums meet and integrate each other (that is what we call “media mix”).
