Software cinema verité 04/09/2004 03:56 PM

A growing number of vendors now use Flash videos to augment the obligatory lists of customers, features, and benefits that they publish on their marketing pages. It's a strategy I highly recommend. What hadn't occurred to me, until it happened this week, was that users might do this for you! [Full story at InfoWorld.com]
Here's Paul Everitt, whose spontaneous act of software demonstration motivated the column:
It's funny how these things happen. I put very little consideration into making that narrated demo. I had posted something about XSLT and said it was easier than advertised. In a weblog comment, someone asked for evidence to back up my assertion. I offered to make a recording, he took me up on the offer, and I spent 15 minutes with no post-production to respond to him. [Zope Dispatches]
Exactly. "15 minutes with no post-production" is doable on a whim. When the activation threshold is low enough, things can happen that otherwise wouldn't. ...

Here Comes Digital Cinema


Here Comes Digital Cinema 12/23/2003 06:56 PM
We've been hearing about it for years, but it appears that movie theaters are finally starting to go digital. Better yet, it sounds like they're doing so for the actual advantages of digital, rather than the ridiculous perceived value that was being hyped up a few years ago. Sure, the picture is nicer, but most people find today's movies "good enough" - and some people have even claimed they don't like digital cinema since they believe they can see artifacts like jagged edges. However, the theaters that are going digital are realizing that it means they have much more flexibility with content. They're not just showing movies, but also are showing live sporting events and music concerts which can be delivered digitally in real-time. Also, as smaller theater chains, like the independent Landmark chain (now owned by dot com billionaire Mark Cuban) go digital, it will open up new opportunities for new filmmakers to get their films shown without going through the big Hollywood gatekeepers distributors. While the big Hollywood studios focus on the wrong things, it appears that movie theaters are beginning to figure out what's happening.

Superhero Cinema

Spider-Man didn't impress me much. DareDevil seemed too short. The only super thing in Superman III was the computer at the end of the movie. X2 was almost close to okay. I haven't seen LXG yet - and we'll see how wellPunisher fares. I didn't have much hope for Hulk, but... it's about the only one I've been impressed with so far. We found a used 2-DVD set for $10 at Blockbuster the other day - and the package is definitely worth twice that amount. The cinematography is fantastic, the special effects are realistic, and the story is well balanced. Give it a spin if you haven't already. I hear the game is just as good, too....

Blu-Laser Cinema Player


Blu-Laser Cinema Player 06/06/2005 12:08 AM

blulas_cin.jpgI'll cop to being a little unsure exactly what the Blu-Laser Cinema Player is exactly, at least from a format perspective. I think it's Blu-ray, since they mention that in their press release, but I'm not entirely sure. I did put together that the $6k player isn't exactly meant for home use, instead marketed towards content producers who need to screen high-def works-in-progress while at home. And adding confusion to the strange, each model of the Cinema Player is built-to-order, but the only customization is which codec it uses. Why not use them all?

Paris underground cinema, part 2


Paris underground cinema, part 2 09/11/2004 05:32 AM
David Pescovitz: The secret society behind the subterranean cinema re cently discovered by police in Paris have come forward. According to a Guardian article, the mission of the group, called La Mexicaine de la Perforation, is to "reclaim and transform disused city spaces for the creation of zones of expression for free and independent art."
"There are so many underground networks - the quarries, the metro, the collective heating, the electricity, the sewers - and each is the responsibility of a different bureaucracy... Urban explorers are the only people who, between us, know it all. We move between each network. We know where they link up - often, it's us who made the link. The authorities, the police, town hall, they don't know a hundredth, a thousandth, of what's down there."

Miramax has apparently jumped on the "let's be evil" bandwagon. Kung Fu Cult Cinema is a site for fans of Asian Cinema, including reviews, message boards, etc. As part of the site, there are links to websites outside of the U.S. that sell Asian films legally. Miramax has apparently sent the site a bogus "cease and desist" order, claiming that KFC Cinema cannot even *link* to said overseas sites without violating the copyright they have on certain asian films (Hero, Shaolin Soccer, etc.). The link above is to an open response to Miramax's letter.
