Can you post the schematics for your mad invention so others may re-create and possibly improve on the effort? 

I would LOVE to see the video of the setup that negative 1 mentioned doing earlier (mostly because I'm a big nerd about that kind of thing, and it looks super neat).  You might could improve on it, maybe, but without a good print to work with what would you do with it??

edit: also, a video about the setup would make a nice extra on a dvd/bluray :)

And I didn't know there were any manual focus point and shoots.  Keep up the good work, we're all super psyched for it!

well, it could be used for other movies.. we've already got empire

transferred, and might do jedi..

anyways, unless you need it faster, you could improve the speed.

basically, you just need to buy a used telecine and modify that

with what you can work with (motors,etc). ideally a 35mm film

projector could be altered also.

yeah, i'll upload the video at some point.

 

there won't be any extras or features with the movie.

it doesn't need it. but we'll have all kinds of stuff for

download for people that want an archive of the jedi.com site,

and all the making of's and preliminary stuff. there's a few

hours worth of it. no point in filling it up on disc, when

that space can be used better for audio/video tracks.

 

later

You can be ABSOLUTELY sure that here are people who LOVE the making of documentaries, and similar stuff. If you could use the stuff you have for other disc(s) or make it downloadable, many many people would be happy
