Author Topic: Sneak Preview Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 11-16-2003 04:21 PM                        I have a friend who did not want to download Quicktime becuae he was under the impression that it was bloatware and/or took over much of the system. Not true. I eventually got him to download it and he was happy with it. When you install, just be sure NOT to check the boxes that tell it to be the default player for everything from MP3 files to MIDIs to MPEGs. I would just worry about MOV files and the like.  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 11-16-2003 04:45 PM                  I agree, Real Players rate only 2nd to AOL in all their annoying crap they put one's computer! I hate those money-grabbing thieves! ***THE*** best format is QuickTime...bar none! As was mentioned, ya only need 2 players on the ol' 'puter... QuickTime and Window's Media Player. All the rest suck the big one. And as Joe mentioned, just use Quicktime for mov and the like...Media Player for everything else. >>> Phil  |  IP: Logged Scott D. Neff Theatre Dork Posts: 919 From: San Francisco, CA Registered: Oct 1999 posted 11-16-2003 07:59 PM                        I've had quicktime on my home computer forever. It's that damned laptop for work that doesn't have it and I don't think I can download it and install it for some lame reason... damned NT. Anyway -- Imma gonna go watch the vid now.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 11-16-2003 08:12 PM                        You shouldn't be watching this stuff on the job! Now I've got dirt on you! You have to get me a projection job that pays REALLY NICE at the Century 16 Bel Mar in Lakewood CO when it opens or I will tell your boss! Ha!  |  IP: Logged Mark Lensenmayer Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1605 From: Upper Arlington, OH Registered: Sep 1999 posted 11-16-2003 09:50 PM                     Regarding REALPLAYER, I use an excellent Pest killer called PEST PATROL, and it identifies REALPLAYER as spyware, and tries to delete it. Unfortunately, I have to use it because some of the things I need to use for business are encoded. So, I live with it.  |  IP: Logged Jack Ondracek Film God Posts: 2348 From: Port Orchard, WA, USA Registered: Oct 2002 posted 11-16-2003 09:57 PM                        That's interesting... Spybot S&D doesn't have any problem with it.  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 11-17-2003 01:15 AM                  Mark is right...Pest Patrol is great AND REALSHIT is spyware. It calls back to the "home office" to report God knows what? Delete ALL hidden files from that POS prg. OBTW: Have a nice day all... >>> Phil  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 11-18-2003 07:58 PM                        Re: the recent piracy and digital cinema seminar pics: I like the multiple pictures of the same person at the podium from the same exact angle over and over again! "Here's a shot of Ioan Allen. Here's a shot of Ioan Allen with his head aimed 3 degrees to the left of where he was looking in the proir photo. Here's Ioan again looking ever so slightly down. Here's one with his head in motion, hence the blur...." And you gotta love the corporate speak on the slides. Nothing puts people to sleep faster than corporate speak. Liven it up guys! Even people who attend those seminars are human! Put a little humor in it here and there. It will help keep their attention, generate positive feelings of the event and thus accomplish better results! Look at Film-Tech!  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 11-18-2003 10:12 PM                     Joe, we've got more ShoWest photos to post. Not all have captions. Would you like to provide captions?  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 11-19-2003 05:53 AM                        I would have but it seems to be a bit late.  |  IP: Logged Daryl C.

On page five you could put, "Here's a picture of Brad with his video camera. Let's see how long it takes him to remove this picture."  |  IP: Logged Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony. Posts: 3686 From: Dallas, TX Registered: Nov 2000 posted 11-20-2003 05:16 AM                     I immediately noticed the lack of cheese on the table in front of Steve Guttag in the tenth photo of the FT 2003 Drink set.  |  IP: Logged John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 11-21-2003 11:22 PM                        Joe: I sent Brad all the photos I took, along with simple captions. I leave it up to the Film-Tech moderators as to which ones to use.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 11-22-2003 04:21 AM                        Well of course we're gonna use 'em all!  |  IP: Logged Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony. Posts: 3686 From: Dallas, TX Registered: Nov 2000 posted 11-22-2003 04:54 AM                     The photos with datestamps are from John and most of those will have captions. I don't remember where the others came from. I went through a couple hundred ShoWest photos and don't remember any specific single one, except for the one where Steve ate all the cheese again.  |  IP: Logged
