ProTools any day, but then pro-tools on the higher level not necessarily LE. The great thing about pro-tools is its easy intergration into AVID - (made by the same people). You can get digidesign desks as well for all the gimmicks.

So what's the next super 8 film Zen? After the success of the last one you've got a hearty eye's peeled audience awaiting further productions! I was thinking the other day. I wonder if there's every been made a camera - in the dark distortion of history - that has been able to shoot Super 8...

I love war of the worlds - HG Wells and all that... But I can't really help but wonder what Old Seniorita Spielburgio has got to offer it. I completely agree with Nique about it needing to be have been set in the 80s... not so sure about Weimar Republic. I think it might just turn out to be...
