Hi, eagerly awaiting ACTA, which is winging its way through the post to me
over in England.  Just a couple of quick questions if you can indulge me....

1) When you have to transfer the widescreen version of B5 to the regular
aspect, do you have to pan and scan, or are the side of the screen just used
as 'beauty space' when shot, and so can be clipped without damaging
composition?

2) Back before B5 satarted and the media interest was muted at best,
Cinefantastique put together a knock out B5-dedecated issue, with previews of
most of the first season (when they were called things like 'The
Ressurectionist' and 'Raiding Party'). Interviews, the whole works. Is
anything similar planned around the start of Crusade?

It's the latter, though we've been composing more for widescreen and actually
putting the edges to good use in Crusade.

Dunno...nobody's said anything about it to me thus far.
