[Chris Smith]

I agree that shooting off a screen would be the most cool looking organic result. However this has been asked before a number of times so I’d check the archives.

OR here is an example of how to do it:

I don’t think you actually have to shoot the TV. Just connect a TV with static into an anolgue input and capture it. This way you won’t have the worries of actually shooting the TV. and you will probably get the “best quality” static (if there is such a thing).

then transfer modes etc etc
