See my post #42. That funky audio transition between scenes is what leads me to the conclusion that it was just a DV camera, but if you say that you saw the unedited version, I would think that they just did a deck-to-deck or camera-to-deck "edit". Record...FF...record...FF...record. That still doesn't explain the fancy titles...perhaps they were added profesionally after the poor-man's edit of the original video.

The format of the digitized movie is a Quicktime. I can easily take the software that ships with my Mac, download this video, make video and audio edits, add titles, even do minor color correction, and produce an entirely revised Quicktime movie in about 30 minutes. You don't need fancy software anymore, iMovie does a great job with far more complex titles than what you see here.

Now if I load it into Final Cut Pro and then take the audio and load it into Protools, there is just about no end to the amount of manipulation I could do.

I think you missed my point entirely.

I don't care what the final format is. And even if it's a final format, I can re-encode it into something else anyway.

My point is that choppy transitions in the video were a result of one of two possibilities; using the camera or the deck to cut the video...that's about it.

Using Avid or Vegas would not produce those funky transitions between video clips...those appear to be left as-is, and the only real editing was the Intro and Outro. The other "outtakes" were done with hardware.

I'm really not sure what the argument is.
