Editing Pan and scan (section)

===Reframing===
One modern alternative to pan and scan is to adjust the source material directly. This is very rare; the only known uses are in [[Computer-generated imagery|computer-generated]] features, such as those produced by [[Pixar]], and video games such as ''[[BioShock]]''.

This approach to full-screen versions is sometimes called ''[[Reframing (filmmaking)|reframing]]'': some shots are pan and scan, while others (notably [[Warner Bros.]]' ''[[The Lego Movie]]'') are transferred [[open matte]] (a full widescreen image extended with the added image above and below).

Another method is to keep the camera angle as tight as a pan shot, but move the location of characters, objects, or the camera so that the subjects fit in the frame. The advent of DVDs and their use of [[anamorphic widescreen|anamorphic]] presentation, coupled with the increasing popularity of widescreen televisions and computer monitors, has rendered pan and scan less important. Full screen versions of films originally produced in widescreen are still available in the [[United States]].
