<p><font size="2"><strong>By Krisztina Than<p>Budapest<p>Aug. 6: Are you a fan of Woody Allen or action movies and want the world to know<p>Now you can have the images from your favourite film on a pair of trendy eyeglasses made by designer Zakarias Tipton.<p>The 29-year-old optician first began experimenting with vinyl and plastic glass frames about eight years ago and now sells a range of Cinematique eyeware www.vinylize.com with clips from the silver screen worked into the frame.<p>&quot;I began testing all sorts of plastic until I found my father’s record collection, and then I started recycling those without his knowledge,&quot; Mr Tipton said.<p>That’s when Mr Tipton, who grew up in the United States with a Hungarian mother, decided to set up his funky eyeware business. Now he, along with his brother, are based in Budapest and their collection is sold across Europe and North America.<p>Their Cinematique frames are made by recycling 35mm and 16mm movies. The film is collected from cinemas and dates from after 1989 the fall of Communism in Hungary.<p>&quot;They customers tell us they’d like a film from Woody Allen or they want &quot;Mission Impossible 3&quot; in their frame or they want a picture of some famous actor, then we will make it here and ship it to them,&quot; Mr Tipton said.<p>Mr Tipton moved to Hungary at the start of this decade and is now targeting increasingly affluent eastern European customers with a list of about 300 films to choose from.<p>The frames are designed on a computer and a company in Italy manufactures them. The front of the frames is made by a sister company in neighbouring Slovakia. Not all films make good material though, as the images must have bold collars and lots of contrast.<p>Mr Tipton said a favorite is the 2003 action movie Once Upon a Time in Mexico, which stars Antonio Banderas as hitman El Mariachi alongside Johnny Depp as a psychotic CIA agent.<p>&quot;There are explosions everywhere, contrast, people flying, jumping, which brings out an added dimension.&quot; —Reuters
