Framing didn't seem particularly tight. She didn't voice concern over the hard matte on the sides being visible, but I see no reason why the masking couldn't have been brought in since the matte is a constant thickness.  |  IP: Logged Aaron Sisemore Flaming Ribs beat Reeses Peanut Butter Cups any day!
