This idea just came up. I have an idea of a G-rated version of Film-Tech for kids known as Film-Tech Jr.

I personally know tons of preteen projectionists...

That's great. Why don't you go make that site? It would be kind of like that band Menudo for Film-Tech! I'm sure there are lots of 10 year olds who would love to talk shop about projection. Don't forget to put a naughty word filter on the forum though, since there will be children present. Oh yeah, and make sure to put lots of pretty pictures to color in the webdesign too. Instead of a manual download section, perhaps you could have a video game download section. You could use the upload feature so that kids could use your site to upload programs and video games and movies to your server so that other kids can get them for free. Wow, this is a GREAT idea. I expect to see www.film-techjr.com online within one week. Now go get busy!

Brad, I've been trying to upload pirated movies all week... it's not working! What's up with that?

No music? Gotta have free music.

Matthew, here's my contribution for the coloring book (er, manuals section):

Silly me, I completely forgot about music. Gotta have that gangsta rap for the kiddies!

Daryl, perhaps we could make an entire library of coloring books in pdf files? How about a big purple dinosaur threading some obscure projector with Matthew's head on it?

Hmmmm, what to put on the links section?

Here's another pic for the coloring book (can't have the kids thinking that _everyone_ uses DLP!):

Here's great chance to see if "Subject" section of the Edit Post button is broken for Matthew as well as the regular functionality. I say this since I think the vast majority of Film-Tech inhabitants will skip over this topic based on its title, and miss the gems within.

If only it were titled "Film-Tech Coloring Book" then surely the droves and masses would arrive!

I went ahead and changed it since I know Matthew doesn't understand how it works.

I don't think Barney could figure out how to thread the Showscan projectors.

I'll probably regret this but I'll toss in 2 from where I help out on weekends.

Scott, coloring that Magnarc looks like it might be fun. Especially getting the carbon view window and the Peerless logo to glow. Brings back alot of memories.

FILM-TECH JR. ???

Perhaps Andrew McCrea can join, and we can be entertained by his witty banter once more.

=TMP=

p.s. ROFLMAO!!!

After failing to thread up, Barney got promoted to usher!

One of the Forums can be similar to GROUND LEVEL. It could be Box Office/Concessions.

Hey Brad, we could bring back that Andrew kid we had to ban a year and a half or so ago.

Will there also be paper dolls of Joe R. with different cut-out paper outfits to colour and dress him in? Like GI Joe, Joe the Astronaut, Joe the Cowboy, Joe the Blindfolded, Joe on Safari, Josephine the Flight Attendant etc.?

Apparently Josh doesn't take from anyone!
(we will probably have to sensor that one in the Jr. Edition)

Remember kiddies, never try and move a print by yourself!






I expect to see each frame of film properly colored.

Looks to me like Hillary is asking to be incorporated into the coloring book. Yessiree, I think thats what that says.

Looked like Josh was going to give him the in that first pic. Now I'm going to have that damn Barney song going thru my head the rest of the day.

The New Film-Tech Jr. is it going to be in Digital ?????

I don't have any coloring pages ready to go yet, but I do have the Film-Tech Jr theme song.

No Steve, I don't think I've earned the notoriety on this forum to be honored in this coloring book. I just can't help laughing at the concept--and the images are a riot! However, if the storyline calls for a Xena geek...

Matthew--Remember the 35mm projector you were thinking about building out of Lego bricks? "Film-Tech Jr." would not be complete without a page on your fully functional masterpiece showing movies like these. Hey, the NHL can proudly boast of a Stanley Cup crafted from Legos, so why should "Film-Tech Jr." not have a Lego creation to call its own?

(To the other Film-Techers...is this getting strange, or what?)

I think that it is the pressure from his new position as CEO of Leows Cineplex Landmark Sony Entertainment that is getting to him. I can see why too... working for Martians on Pluto could be very demanding.

Alternatively, the FBI could be behind it all!

I just recieved a memo from Mathew the new CEO of LoewsCineplexOdeonSonyLandmarkLego Theatres stating that all management has to dress up like Barney and that we are building a new prototype theatre made entirely out of Legos. I think I may tenure my resignation.

I didn't really think that the normal version of Film -Tech is that Adult.

Well, we can't leave the technical people out of the Film-Tech Jr coloring book. The kiddies HAVE to know who keeps all the theatres in perfect repair too.....



He is the guy that keeps all of the theatres all screwed together when things loosen up. He fixes the doors, picks the spitwads off the screens, repairs the popcorn machine, and so many other things....His name is Brad The Builder. He can even fix the bathroom with his pipewrench.......see.......



All nice and shiny once again.....

Ok all you Film-Tech youngsters...when you grow up...you too will be expected to wire projection and sound systems. And what better way to learn the color codes than by coloring them in a coloring book!

Will the coloring (colouring?) book ever be posted in the manuals section?

Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 11-28-2003, 05:41 PM:
 
No. It's not a manual.

It COULD be a manual... It would be fun to color an AW3 something other than sea-foam green!
