Liquid Nitrogen - fast, safe (as long as you're sensible), easy, environmentally friendly. Check YouTube.

I believe a zirc is a pellet of zirconium powder that sparks on impact. Not for firing at actors.

I had something of an Archimedean Eureka! moment yesterday, though I was washing dishes at the time, not bathing. A bubble of detergent across the mouth of a glass formed a lovely swirling shimmering portal and brought to mind the frequent call for a heat-wave effect. Haven't tried it in front of a lens yet. I didn't run naked into the street either.

I've used CCTV multiplexers for this. Very cheap. Only for composite SD though.

I take it you mean 'bobbinete'? http://www.rosebrand.com/subcategory157/fa...bobbinette.aspx

It sounds like a pickup line, but I really like your black level. Helps very much to sell hot and dusty. Nice work.

Of course.

One of the many things streaks'n'tips is for.

CP16R body, regular viewfinder, Angenieux 10x15 T2.3, 3 x PLC-4 mags. 1 batt and charger and one batt shell. Can recell if req'd. Spare mag belt. The centipede belt is missng some legs but still works fine ($35-40USD for a replacement from Visual Products or Whitehouse). John Barry Stronghold hardcase. Offers. Ballarat Vic.

Sounds reasonable. Would be nice to be able to search members by location too.

Thanks Frederico.

Been saving all sorts of stock for a feature that wanted a lot of looks, but that project is on hold for the time being. Would prefer not to split the lot. Will ship to Australia only. Weight is nearly 20 kg before packing so would have to be 2 parcels to go by post. I'm in Ballarat, Vic if someone wants to pick it up. Stored in a cool dark room, but not refrigerated. Make me an offer.

Those shots are very reminiscent of Tori Amos' Super 8 clips from Scarlet's Walk. Nice.

I have plenty of windows on all sides so take advantage of natural light during the day. Venetians in every room but the living area, which has unbleached muslin over the windows (it took 30 metres of it!). Soft and a little dim is what I find most comfortable to live in. In the second pic, with the translite of the bum (the companion top half is on the opposite wall), the overhead is in a normal conical desk lamp shade used upside down. There are a couple of 650w profiles on winchups for specials. Everything is on dimmers so I can warm it up and drop the level at night. I love tungsten so no daylight balanced anything here, no flos and no CFLs. And definitely no MR16 downlights. Anywhere there's a bulb in the ceiling I haven't shaded, it's a crown-silvered type so it's bounced from the ceiling. Theres not a light in the place that can shine directly in your eyes. Gradients of light are something else I love so any workspace has at least a desk or floor lamp to compliment the room's base exposure.

Did they get a photo of it?
