Film Gimp Chalks Up Another Studio

Posted by timothy on from the hey-fellas-this-one-is-free dept.

Robin Rowe of the Film Gimp project has a piece running on NewsForge (also part of OSDN) that says "Film Gimp has recently been adopted by ComputerCafe, the fourth motion picture studio to use it in making feature films." Check out this recent post about Film Gimp to see some great screenshots of behind-the-scenes use. (And Rowe is also hoping you can get to the Linux Movies Track at Creative Cow West 2003, starting Tuesday in Los Angeles.) Update: 02/17 04:04 GMT by T : Brain rebooted, so I added the missing link.

    The newsforge article is here. Or perhaps they are saving the URL to tomorrows dupe about it.

      ah, the fickleness of the "dupe humor" crowd...

      terrible thing to be called a troll...you hem and haw and gnash and gnaw over the perfect one-liner, only to be lowered to that lowest of all life forms.

      Oh, ye troll, we weep for you.

    How we know is more important than what we know.

    The people who retouch frames of films probably make good salaries but not extravagant ones, for all practical purposes are living on another planet than people like Valenti or the movie stars.

    It's definitely the movie stars and especially Jack Valenti who are living on another planet from the rest of us. (Did you think that Planet Hollywood was just a restaurant/bar chain?)
