Kottke.org points to this terrific article on the rather revolutionary production processes employed on The Corpse Bride - namely, shooting on digital still cameras and editing in Final Cut Pro. It's not revolutionary to me, of course, since it's exactly what I'm doing on my stop motion film. "The FCP project is 80 minutes long at 720 x 480 (offline) and 23.98 fps (for easier NTSC pull-down). Every shot is a folder of images, and each clip is treated as a reel." Yep, that sounds exactly like my project settings (minus the running time).
Needing no explanation aside from the title is this brilliant piece at McSweeney's: Jim Jarmusch's Notes For A Ghostbusters sequel. Via whichever site I first saw the link at - either Green Cine or Cinematical.
My own rather laboriously distended review of the title of Cronenberg's latest can be read here.
You can always tell I'm procrastinating over something when I start posting links like this.
