And speaking of Dunn, he gets namechecked in my newest article at Blogcritics on selecting the appropriate transitions when editing your next online video (which references some of the transitions I experimented with in the intro to the most recent edition of Silicon Graffiti). It makes, I hope, a nice follow-up to my own article this month at Videomaker on “The Art of the Title Sequence.”

Related: Well, tangentially at least. At Deep Glamour, Virginia Postrel explores another side of Hollywood make-believe: “Grace Kelly: ‘Natural Glamour’ Rising from the Sea.”
