    Will anyone have this available to show at SELEM 2022? How long is it?

    I'd like to put it on the schedule if possible.

    edit: I see cfavreau will have it.

    We'll have to figure out a place/time to show it and get a projector.

    Yes. I have it on BluRay and will be bringing my copy. I don't have a bluray player that I can bring... maybe I do and a little TV too. Do we have access to a bluray player and TV? Also I think it might be nice to show the Lumia documentary that X-Laser shared with us.

    I'll check with Brad -- I'm sure he has a BR player and a projector for his venue.

    How long is the Laserium Doc?

    Folks,

    Please consider buying your own copies too! Bjorn Schaller, the Producer/Director/Filmmaker who produced this little jewel, would love to make back what he invested in the video. Please show your support. If you know a distributor, please let Bjorn know. He'd love to get it into some theater venues.

    Only $12.99 from Amazon:

    Thumbs up

    I watched this at SELEM this year, and I was really impressed. I guess I didn't know what to expect going into it, but I very much enjoyed the documentary.

    I think most laser enthusiast's have at least a vague understanding of what Laserium was, but this film dives deep into the history of both the show itself and the technology behind it. That being said, it does not get bogged down with a lot of technical jargon. It does a nice job of explaining how many of the effects were created, but it also highlights the human element that was present (and necessary) at each and every show. It also illustrates just how big Laserium really was. (Hint: It was *huge*! The show was way more popular than I ever imagined!)

    If you haven't watched this, I strongly recommend it!

    PS: Just ordered a copy of the Blu-Ray disc for my collection.
