[QuadList] Semi-OT: Can you imagine what it would take to do this on videotape?

[Ted Langdell]

An editor on another list was asking how to do something like this  
Eric Whitacre Virtual Choir number in a non linear editor or with  
Motion or After Effects.

The conductor's setup and backing track is here:

My brain had a quick picture of a bunch of machines and people in a  
huge room trying to post this with linear videotape techniques.   
(Crazy me!)

The backroom "technical choir" at work would be as fascinating to  
explore as the result would be to watch and listen to.

Sparks another question someone on the list may have an answer to:   
What is the most number of Quads (or other VTR) ever brought together  
for a single post-production project? And I'm not thinking of the  
Olympics, although the mass of equipment could have been tied together  
for one huge edit session.
