My movie is gamma  1.7.  I started at 2.2.  After the arguments, I tried 
1.0, but it was really dark and I needed to add a lot more lights and I 
wasn't feeling like adding a lot more lights. So I added *some* lights, 
and settled at gamma 1.7.
I think it gives it more of an animation look and less of a realistic 
look, which I'm kind of going for.
