:

Hollywood quickly discovered the web as a tool for promoting films. But filmmakers have also discovered the web as a new medium for sharing information and distributing their creative output. This program looks at several Hollywood oriented web sites including atasite.org, the site for the Artists Television Access organization; a site devoted to the film "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"; and lowres.com, a site that runs an online film festival. Ed Martinez, a Hollywood special effects expert, guides us through web sites focused on special movie effects. Also a demonstration of Stephen Spielberg's Directors Chair, software that lets you create your own movies and run a Hollywood production studio.
