Perhaps everyone has seen (or scene) this, but with all the tech talk about negatives, perhaps it will be entertaining.

I haven't found it on YouTube, so you will have to download it-it is 6 megs. I will leave it up for the night.

Why We Dont Use Negative Film No More

The Red camera that they mention is the new fancy digital camera that everyone wants (even if they won't admit it. The Spirit is a telecine machine, which is the device that takes film and turn the image into digits. Rotoscoping is a process that in this case would be used to remove scratches or other blemishes from a digitized film.

I use iSquint - free download. I use it to make iPod movies from other formats, but it converts flv to TV or iPod.

Well  my  PC realplayer didn't recognise FLV files, and I do find it generally intensely irritating
