Hey, it's cool - digital filmmaking *is* getting bigger (unfortunately, in my opinion). Here at Columbia, currently only Production I and Image Design actually cut on film, but next semester Production I is moving to digital editing. We'll still shoot on film in all film production classes, but editing will be done on computers, which is how it's done 99% of the time in the industry anyway, which is, really, a shame. I enjoyed it while it lasted, and I hope someday in the future when I'm working in the industry, a director will bring me on as an editor and want to cut on film. Not likely, but one can dream.

Oh, and, a quick tidbit - Spielberg still cuts on film, not computers like everyone else, so even though KOTCS was stuffed full of CGI, it was still edited with celluloid workprints. Or so I've been told.
