Check out the newsgroup alt.movies.visual-effects for good discussions on a range of digitally related topics. I'm also doing research in this area and have made numerous contacts on the web which led to interviews down the road. I suggest you browse the newsgroups and CGI related pages (you can't miss with running a search on Yahoo), as well as cinema newsgroup/webpages. For periodicals, check out Interactive Age, Digital Video, Wired and, most importantly, American Cinematographer and Cinefex. These magazines cover most of the major elements involved with digital filmmaking technologies. Best of luck! *************************************** HOMER7HB also at [log in to unmask] **************************************** ---- To signoff SCREEN-L, e-mail [log in to unmask] and put SIGNOFF SCREEN-L in the message.
