Filmmaker IQ, sponsored by Blackmagic Design, recently released an entertaining and educational video chronicling the history of aspect ratios. I personally found it fascinating (plus it mentions a few of my favorite old movies) and I thought you might enjoy it too!

Thanks, Christine. Didn't realize how the 16:9 ratio was derived!
