Re: It's Q1 2006

Lars,

I hope the people at the Cow here might want to put the article on the site.

I am doing it as a workflow test for an upcoming project I am working on, thought I would share it in the interest of helping out other indy film makers.

I will not be comparing the Varicam and the HVX but it will be a step by step from the Varicam to 35mm via the ARRI Laserwriter.

I like knowing that Supersizeme was shot on mini DV and had a wide theatrical release. It is great to plan for the best picture but the story will aloways determine the finish. They weren't about to shelve a film like supersizeme becasue it was shot in an inferior format. I think that small indy films are always going to cut through when they are about story and about good acting or revealing new great talents. It is great to know that the films will be of a much more pleasing quality but I did not mind the quality of supersizeme, rogerandme, bowling for columbine, murderball (dvx100a) and other recent theatrical successes.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
