‘Lock Out’ is written and directed by talented Irish filmmaking duo Stephen St Ledger and James Mather, the team behind the 2004 short ‘Prey Alone’. Their first foray into feature films is made with the backing of French Studio Europacorp headed by the acclaimed Luc Besson (I Love You Philip Morris, From Paris with Love) who will also produce the film.

‘Lock Out’ (previously entitled ‘Section 8’) takes place in a prison orbiting 50 miles above the earth. The prison houses 500 of the world’s most dangerous prisoners, who are kept asleep by sophisticated techniques until they suddenly awoken. The project boasts a $30 million budget.

the time has dawned, when i am but forced to embrace the inevitable. im but forced to move to a os im not that happy with.. but want your views on it..

been using winxp64 for a long time without any cause for complaint, but now must migrate to Win7 because of this whole CS5 thingy and the addition of new hardware.

my primary production software would be Nuke and Aftereffect cs5 working with mostly DSLR and Sony XDCam footage (and an occasional film scan). Hardware on the compers station would be a i7 980x /16G memory/2BX4 raid 5/ 470GTX for mercury playback.

my questions are as follows

1) Do compers use Windows7. and if so, how successful is it…
2) In the inevitable situation of having to use Win7, are there any things i need to know about setting up win7 without running into complications mid project.
3)other useful information ??

thankx again..

Hi there,

Im new on Inferno and im learning all i can from small works and trying to do the tutorials i found about this soft.

I have no problems importing tif, dpx, mov, etc sequences, but now i found some tutorials on Autodesk web (it says they are for flame) and the examples sequences have .seg extension, i can’t open them on my Inferno (its a 2009 SP1).

Doing something bad?

Thanks to all of u.

PD: Any tutorial you recommend?
