filmstrip Q. I have used a loft NURB to create a film strip that comes off of a reel. I want the base texture to be that of a piece of film: dark squares or rectangles separated by a thin strip of lighter color and holes along both edges. I would like to draw one picture of just one of these blocks and then let the tiling feature take care of the rest, including a clip(alpha) map to create the holes in the edges.

A. Make one frame of your film and apply with UV mapping. . .then scale it on one axis until it is correctly proportioned. . .tiling should be on.
