hey Alain,
while not exactly answering your question- both DigiCraft and Cirrus Photo
(here in Portland) can scan 16mm film using a drum scanner. Trevor Fife's
enlarged film strips that are on display at the Stumptown Annex were both
scanned and printed by Digicraft, and they look really good.

Hello Frameworkers,
I understand that this is not the proper venue to promote a Kickstarter

hello Frameworkers-
I am hoping to find good texts and/or essays concerning

I have heard that USA Projects takes a 15-20% commission from each project-
which is significantly higher then the 5-10% that Kickstarter takes.
I am very curious to hear whether artists feel like USA Projects is earning
that extra 10%. Keep us posted Gene!

Thanks all for the great feedback, both here and off-list. I am reminded
what a vast, and potentially contentious issue documentary film can be...
which is a good thing to be reminded of.
thanks again,

I wanted to update everyone here about what's going on with Peripheral

For Hollywood cinema at its worst, it might be interesting to look at
recent blockbusters such as the "Transformers" series or recent James Bond
007 films that have inked product placement sponsorship deals with car
companies, essentially turning the films into 2 hour long car commercials.

While not directly druggie, early German Expressionistic films,

Hello Frameworkers,
After reading Manohla Dargis' piece this morning in the NY Times about the
recent crop of historically informed features coming out of Hollywood (link
below), it got me thinking about historically informed experimental works.
Works by Travis Wilkerson, Lynn Sacks, Craig Baldwin
I believe SXSW is for profit. And I believe they profit rather well.
There are certainly a number of small festivals that by default are
considered "for profit" because they haven't done the legwork to achieve
non-profit status, but are essentially operating like a non-profit.
Ultimately, I think

seems to fit your criterion in a number of ways, plus is simply an amazing
piece!
