Ben Sounds like a very interesting project and I commend you for working on 16mm but curious what's "gay" about using a computer? Sounds like something quite negative since its something you refuse to do?
I've just never heard someone refer to using computers as "gay". I personally love 16mm and have made several films in that format. I can also see why computers can be so detesting to celluloid lovers but have a hard time understanding why that term was used. It would sound pretty bad if someone said "I refuse to do this on a computer because that's so girly or sissy or that's so black". That would sound pretty sexist or racist, no? I just wanted to leave you with some food for thought.
