Suis enfin all�e voir The Girl with a Pearl Earring. N’ai pas �t� d��ue. Tr�s beau travail d’adaptation, bonnes interpr�tations, beau bonhomme. Et la photo! La photo! Composition fid�le � l’esprit de Vermeer, lumi�re d’une beaut� � couper le souffle.

Mes surprises et joies pour les nominations aux Oscars:

-La pr�sence marqu�e de l’excellent film City of God, qu’il faut absolument voir.

-La nomination de l’adorable et talentueuse Keisha Castle-Hughes du film Whale Rider. Elle m’avait arrach� des larmes, la coquine. Habituellement je n’aime pas qu’on mette des enfants en nomination, mais la petite pourrait bien m�riter les honneurs. Louez le DVD et regardez-la en entrevue. Gr�ce et spontan�it�. On va lui revoir la binette � celle-l�! (Tiens, en faisant des recherches, je viens d’apprendre qu’elle sera la prochaine Queen of Naboo dans Star Wars III.)

I know very little about fonts and page layout but I know that a lot of you out there are experts at this kind of stuff. So here’s a question for you: I’m working on a proposal for a tv show aimed at teenagers, age 15 and up. My boss, the producer, was thinking about using a cool and young font for the presentation of our project to the broadcaster. This document includes a description of the content of the show (characters, storyline, etc) as well as production and budget details (spreadsheets).

Do you have any font to suggest that might work well for a project like ours? Ideally, this should be a font easily available and not something that we would have to pay a fortune to get.

What’s the standard these days? Is it considered cheesy to present a professional document in an unusual font? I think most producers play it safe and stick to Times New Roman or Arial. My boss wants to be more original since the show is centered around teenagers. What should I tell her?

Un verre de vin rouge et un nouveau fauteuil couleur cr�me.
Un grand brun, son chat jaune, un feu orange.
La nuit bleue qui tombe pr�s d’une cuisine rubis.

Qui a dit que l’hiver �tait blanc?
