Sweet, thanks.

Yeah I learned the hard way that mp3 had import issues in FCP7 a while back. Steered clear of them ever since (or at least made sure to convert them first).

Ah, that makes total sense. I guess JPEG is gonna be around a lot longer than today's standard video formats. Maybe I'll start doing that.

I have a little Sony NEX-5N, which I love, and a few cheap/vintage lenses. My brother has the fun toys, which I have access to (score!). He's in the process of building his inventory, and this is what he's got so far:

• Sony FS700

• Sony 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3

• Zeiss 50mm f/1.4

• Tokina 16-32mm f/2.8

• Metabones EF-NEX adapter (planning on getting the Metabones Speedbooster in the near future)

• Rhino Slider Pro (rhinocameragear.com, He just ordered it so it'll be in this week.)

• We've got a Davis & Sanford tripod with an FM18 fluid head (He'll soon be getting a ball head tripod to go with the slider).

To top it off he's borrowing a light kit from a friend until he needs it back (which probably won't be anytime soon), and I'm not sure what his planned microphone setup is. I do know that 240fps on the FS700 is really fun to play with. 

Ha, nice. I'll have to check it out.

Mm. Yeah I've noticed the LOTR Extended Blu-Ray re-grade. More stylistic, less real. Not too crazy though.

Harry Potter ALL OF THEM!!! What'd that be, like 20 hours? NBD 

EDIT: Okay, I hadn't realized you guys already did the first one. My bad. I'll have to check it out.

Just saw it tonight. I liked it, very funny and entertaining. Some of the characters (e.g. John Malkovich) felt a little incomplete, and it felt weird how though the Zombie apocalypse was a worldwide thing, the city they were in was the only place addressed. In Independence Day they only really dealt with one of the alien ships, but at the end they called to let everyone else know how to take them out, and showed shots of the ships going down around the world. That didn't happen here. The movie in general felt very confined. It gave you 5 or 6 different settings and, for the most part, stuck to them. But it wasn't a huge deal to me, just a little thing. Overall I had a great time with it.

And congrats man!

It sounded to me like Smith meant "make" in the literal sense.

Fun short. Cool animation and I thought B&W was a great choice for it. If memory serves, they showed it in theaters before Wreck-It Ralph. Is that right?

Haha, seeing as my question might not get a positive answer in the near future, I'll open it up to breaking the law in general (besides the average speeding ticket, unless it's interesting) to keep things rolling.
