Aviation help needed for our Theater

[Montblack]

Hey Gang,

Sorry for the crosspost but I just got a project dropped into my lap and I
could use some help.

BCT Bloomington Civic Theatre is doing Jesus Christ Superstar
http://www.bloomingtoncivictheatre.org/
Yup, opens next week.

They want to try something - Videos. 90 seconds worth:
(Each video image would run approx 3 seconds, so 30 clips)

Planes in war
Bombs. A-bombs and B-29's dropping many bombs
Soviet troops marching in a parade
Tanks ...on parade
Flame throwers
Cities burning
Missile silos at launch
Maybe a nuke sub
Planes flying formation
Missiles launched from: planes, helicopters, trucks, shoulder mount
More A bomb test footage, etc
Small arms being fired
And anything else you can think of...
Pretty much military weapons being fired and/or cities/targets getting
blow'd up.

Forgot: Las Vegas (lights), roulette wheels, decadence on parade will also
be spliced in - money changing hands, etc...

It will run in the scene where Jesus is throwing the arms merchants out of
the Temple - it's the newer production :-)

Something that can be e-mailed:
We'll combine them and put them on a CD. 25-30-40 images at 2,3,4 seconds
per video clip is what we're looking for. Public domain clips are best! :-)

Send us SHORT blips if you have them, please ...or post a link.

Thanks so much. Very much appreciated.

I (finally) saw The Producers last night at the $2 Theater - it had its
moments.

Geez, with all that 'doom & gloom' I'm going to hide under the table for a
while. :-)

Montblank,

I may be wrong, but any video that is "small" enough to be sent via email,
probably won't have the resolution to be projected as a scenery background.

You might have better luck with still images.

Good luck with your production.

Thanks Jay.

Premier(?) computer program will be used. I'm not the audio/sound guy - I
called him right now for this info.

Images will be put on a CD disk, fed through the program, then sent to a
collection of TV screens up on stage - via cables.

Maybe you should sell Pat Robertson milkshakes in the lobby ;)

Who needs B-29s when you have a Scooter?!

He could zip things into a zip file and send it via "yousendit.com". They
allow up to 1GB.
