Elliot Smith

I'd like to see a best of both worlds kind of thing. Download your movie to your media player and a physical copy is mailed to you for backup and to fulfill the desire of a physical purchase. Perhaps charge a nominal fee for the backup, but not too much unless there's something really special about it. I think Apple is very close. If they could cut a deal so that iTV does the job of your cable company's box they'd have it made in the shade. As far as physical discs go, I'm personally over it, though I'd like a backup copy. The ability to download any movie you want without leaving the couch or waiting for it to come in the mail is where it's at. That's the future.

If you'll have scans I'd love to see that!

Hey Leon, That's an interesting article. I'm a senior at UT going into my last semester, I do wedding videography on the side. I've spent the last 2 1/2 months in New York City making connections and figuring out if I wanted to leave Austin or not and I've decided that I don't. I am camera minded, I would have majored in photography in junior college if they'd had that as an option, and I have a Sony Z1. I just completed shooting on my own art film short up here and I return Tuesday to DFW, then a week later to Austin to do some editing, greenscreening and motion graphics. If you're looking for crew or just interested in chatting my email is elliot-s11 at comcast.net . I can promise that I won't rip you off, try to trick you, or steal from you. Are those good qualifications? ; )
