2929 helping to 86 Section 8?
Yes, as if Schizopolis and Criminal had not blazed new indie trails, Steven Soderbergh signs up for six HD movies: "Announced Thursday, the deal through 2929's HDNet production company will see Soderbergh's films released simultaneously across theatrical, TV and home video platforms on the theory that collapsing the traditionally staggered windows gives consumers a choice regarding how and when they want to see a film," The Reporter writes. "Soderbergh will have creative control over all the films' content, with each produced in 1080i high-definition format. The first project, Bubble... a murder mystery in a small town in Ohio, is in production on a 3-week schedule with Soderbergh writing and directing... HDNet Films is financing all the projects with Bubble's budget between $2 million-$3 million."
