Re: [Avid-L2] OT: Does anybody shoot pushes and pulls anymore?

Ah, John, you seemed to have stepped into Jimmy Dutt's shoes, if that's possible. Thank you, thank you. I needed a smile about now.

Subject: [Avid-L2] OT: Does anybody shoot pushes and pulls anymore?

I remember the days of shuttling through field tapes on 3/4 and I could always
find a usable zoom in or zoom out. It really wasn't that difficult IIRC. Since
I'm doing more online these days I'm always butting my head against the static
shot that someone has put a move on, to give it a little life etc... Don't
people shoot zoom ins and outs anymore? I find it hard to believe they don't
exist on the field tapes and if they do why aren't they used in my final online
sequence? I find the moves forced on these shots rival the image quality of
maybe a squeeze zoom or the A-51 image quality. I know I need to order another
case of "shut up" and just keep shoveling but really what's the deal? Is it
time to borrow Bob's shot gun? But do I go postal on the camera folks or the
offline guys or both? Man I need a nap. Hey you cameramen get off my yard!!!!
