that's impressive 8O I should get a job at those folks, and sneak in a product with some neat options into the portfolio! I quit as soon as i have the first prototype *g* These sanyos have a lot of potential, here's my wishlist for a perfect one - at least for me: - variable framerate 1-60 fps what ...

Those beaulieus really split up the crowd! And the tool metaphor is valid. Imagine a cab driver - would he skip maintenance of his car, and risk to lose customers because it breaks down? We all know that having a car serviced costs a lot of money, yet everbody is happily dragging their cars to the g...

with the end of k40, i consider the price differences between single and super tolerable. Single is better, of course - without any question. In real life however it boils down to having two more filmstocks when you shoot 8mm, the 200 and 25 fuji reversals, and there is a b/w stock available from re...

Of course not, but a valid work of art does not *need* to be entertaining, in any medium. A valid work of art is entertaining by definition. I've yet to encounter a valid work of art that is not entertaining. Anybody who claims to be bored sitting through Tirso de Molina's Don Juan deserves to be k...

Evan, thanks for sharing. This one is my absolute favourite, expressing something I always had in mind in some way.Evan Kubota wrote:"If you try to please audiences, uncritically accepting their tastes, it can only mean that you have no respect for them: that you simply want to collect their money..."

The director's principal job is to entertain? Who said that? I certainly don't agree. Isn't this a very valid point? While of course we would need e.g. to separate documentaries from fiction, I insist that if someone choses to make a movie - or write a novel, or poem, or whatsoever - he steps on th...

Unlike painting, sculpture or photography, cinema has a clear and traceable lineage: It was invented for the entertainment of the masses and exists to make money. This is the difference between movies and traditional arts: the intended audience. Movies are made for the masses (sounds like back in t...

The structure was weak in the sense that it felt like a series of loosely-connected vignettes rather than a coherent, compelling narrative ... and none of the characters were in a different state than nearly three hours earlier ... Instead, I got a muddy, contradictory mess Without actually having ...

fcp 5 might, but fcp 3 is a solid alternative, and you can buy it used for a couple of hundred dollars. Very good idea. Hate to admit that this wasn't my idea :D But actually this makes a lot of sense. I recall to have read in a book ( from ca. 2000) a chapter about editing on a computer, showing a...

6 years is out of reason, especially considering that tourists, like they usually do everywhere, are allowed to stampede through there. However the dude obviously gave a crap about the monument. You won't get into jail for 6 years - not even for 6 days - but you'll be in a lot of trouble if you film...
