===Shoot and protect===
{{Main|Shoot and protect}}
As television screenings of feature films became more common and financially important, cinematographers began to work on compositions that would keep the vital information within the ''TV-safe area'' of the frame. For example, the [[BBC]] suggested programme makers who were recording in 16:9 frame their shots in a [[14:9]] aspect ratio which was then broadcast on analogue services with small black bars at the top and bottom of the picture. Owners of widescreen TV sets receiving digital broadcasts would see the full 16:9 picture (this is known as [[Shoot and protect]]).
