by Marc Lougee :: Digital Image Capture and why we went there From the outset, I wanted to shoot the film utilizing a high resolution source. My experience with digital capture for animation started while Animation Director on MTV’s Celebrity Deathmatch in New York, where we had used three-chip cameras built for medical operating theatres. The image resolution & color was great for standard definition television, but held no ...
by Alex Afterman - Since 2003 I have run a video label called Heretic Films.

So, we've been in Park City for five days now and my head is spinning. We premiered the film on Saturday and had a great crew in town: Jen Welsh, who plays Kat, Greg Lyons, who plays Jack, my finance Beth, high school pal Tom Bilotta, and Greg's ECC bandmate, Josh Ostrander. Of course, 10AM on a Saturday is a difficult slot - especially after a ton of ...
The news of deals being struck is beginning to filter out of Park City. But behind the deal making that has become legendary is the reality of having to deliver the film.

Content is going to become even more open in 2008... With the change in the media climate and distribution experiments such as Radiohead’s In Rainbows (in music), and Four Eyed Monsters (in film) which have open qualities (temporarily available to watch or listen/download for free, for example) but are not necessarily truly open content, it is getting harder to tell what you can and cannot officially do with ...

Fortunately, the programmers saw through our rough cut and we found ...
