There was an episode of 'Amazing Stories' called 'The Eternal Mind' directed by
Richard Lewis. It was basically about a scientist that got trapped in his
computer. The computer was an Amiga. The special effects were produced using
just one Hitachi video camera, Amiga-Live, two Amiga 1000's, a Fairlight CVI
board, and a GE Talaria light valve projection system. See the Feb '87 issue of
Computer Graphics World for more details. 

It was a pretty decent show and the special effects looked great. 

Personally I would rather have the FrameGrabber by PP&S. It does a much better
job than Live does.--
