In article <27193@cup.portal.com> Thyss@cup.portal.com (Brian TT Fudge)
asks about sign making using an Amiga instead of an Incredibly Boring
Machine.  The Video & Animation issue of AmigaWorld (should still be
on the shelves) has a sidebar on page 110 which briefly describes the
work of Jeffery Ginn, who is an art director for feature films.  He
has also made an award-winning Campbell's Soup commercial, all with
Amigas.  Here's an interesting paragraph:

     "Ginn is now moving into new territories.  Before jetting off to
Jamaica, Ginn wrapped up work on Stalla Dallas, a tearjerker starring
Bette Midler.  The Amiga did double duty on Stella.  The Amiga 500
(it's easy to cart around) is attached to a plotter that uses razors
instead of pens.  This system cuts vinyl to make the signs that end
up on film."

     Might be worth looking into...

I'm looking for the stationery department but they keep moving it.
