 ... but lael, how
much did you learn on that disastrous project? would you be where you
are today without doing that project?
 
Exactly.  I was trying to encourage you.  Yes, I learned SO much.  The good thing for me, though, is that it was for a corporation that was willing to let me try it.  It wasn't my money.  I got a great education at thei expense and thankfully, it worked and I kept my job. 


>are they doing it this way at our lab only or why is it so expensive
around here? is it perhaps 2k HD scan then? but isn't "HD BESTLIGHT"
telecine only?
>so perhaps now you understand why i wanted to shoot 4perf so
desperately, i didn't know that there are hourly rates at telecine
places and that they are charged that way....

 
Yeah, see, here is where I may not be the norm (and where other advisors should jump in).    I never do the unsupervised telecine.  I'd rather pay a little more, supervise the telecine, and get exactly what I want the first time.  Also, since I am there, I can push things a little and get it done quickly.  It usually comes out about the same cost for me.  Somehow I started that way and never knew any other way.
 
Good luck, 
Lael
