20th Century Fox will employ the services of seven effects houses on the upcoming live-action film based on Marvel Comics' X-Men. Will be very big budget.

Hey neat, Patrick Stewart will play Professor X. Anna Paquin, winner of the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for The Piano at the age of 11 (now 17), will play Rogue.

American Cinematographer has their December article on Sleepy Hollow online, including all the spiffy pictures.

Digital Media Net has many cool resources for many fields of digital media, from digital filmmaking to video game design to an HDTV buyer's guide. For example, check out this feature article on film matchback in their Digital Video Editing section.

Actually, Creative Mac, another of their sections, would be more your style ("you" referring to those of you using a Mac for creative digital work).

So who's figured out that I tend to blog stuff that appears in Auteur, a semi-regular wanna-be industry email newsletter/weblog? It's actually not that great; it contains links to a few industry news articles, and lists of numbers (box office grosses, DVD sales, industry stock prices). But it reminds me to read American Cinematographer and other guilds' sites for news and features. Never fear, I tend to put the better links on my blog, so let's just pretend I'm finding this stuff on my own. :)
