Here's the latest scoop on digital feature production:

We are all hoping that Jim Jannard's RED DIGITAL cameras are real!!
I'm a believer.
When these cameras pop - the entire course of movie production will change.

Victor I think it's changed some time ago.
An old and dear director friend of mind was quite taken aback when I told him the latest Superman was not shot on film. OK, the Genesis is a tad more expensive than RED but thing is the technology is now so good it's damn hard to tell the difference.
Now we just need the price of that technology to come down.
