Tilt

Tilt is another term used in the movie making business for adjusting a film so that it presents on a widescreen film on a digital display.  When an image is cropped it is sometimes referred to as the tilt and scan or the reverse pan and scan.  The term tilt can also reference an LCD television on a wall mount display.  The set is tilted in a particular angle for optimal viewing; the tilt angle is dependent upon the set’s location, the viewer’s location, and the lighting in the room.
