Johnny Karlsson Posted August 9, 2014 Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 Very cool. I went to the Kubrick thing at LACMA last year and there was quite a few letters on display. (And lots of other interesting good stuff). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikewest Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 Great bit of history Jeff I worked with an Australian in the 80's who was an early user. He worked on US big movies and called himself "One take Toby" By the end of the commercial I realised that he should be renamed "One more take Toby" mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
