Wanna know why movies are called flicks? It’s because of the flickering light that’s emitted from film projectors. Like smoking, smell-o-vision, and intermissions, it looks like 35MM films and their projectors are on their way out of the cinema.
Rock star branded digital cameras are not a new development, but something so obviously modern and useful won’t do for piano-straddling kook Tori Amos. She’s about to release a limited edition 35mm film camera instead. No, that’s not a typo.

I can’t imagine a more exciting time to be an independent filmmaker. This week, even Sony – yes, Sony – showed off a prototype “entry level 35mm” camcorder. In other words, their $US100,000+ CineAltas could price compete with RED… or even lower?
