Where can I find screen captures of COD4 intermission sequences?

Where can I find more information (and screenshots) about the motion graphic intermissions of Call of Duty 4?

I'm doing a mini-research project on Call of Duty 4 and trying to find some screen captures (I have the Xbox version) and information about the intermission sequences in single player mode. These are the map/vector graphics sequences with the voiceover narration detailing the plot development.

Does anybody have any info on who produced these sequences - I'm assuming they were produced in house at Infinity Ward. Also, where I can find some screenshots of them? Searching online has been useless as all I can find are dozens and dozens of (virtually identical) banal reviews.

"We utilized the mocap team at Neversoft to capture the actions of actors, soldiers and stuntmen. Every shot was overseen by a lead animator, at least one game designer (generally the person who was responsible for the “vision” of that moment in the game), and a military expert (for authenticity). Everyone involved did a fantastic job, and the data we got back was much better than anything I've seen in the past."

states "Cinematic Movies Provided by SPOV.TV"

I think that is scraped from the actual in-game credits.

Just to clarify, I'm not interested in the gameplay graphics and animation.. but the map/info screens between levels! Thanks for the answers thus far. :)

Also, it should be relatively easy to generate your own screenshot from the PC version of the game.

^^ That is quite true. If only I had a PC. I just can't believe there are no promo screenshots on the net of the intermission/motion graphic scenes. They are sexy!

The SPOV TV link was exactly what I needed. Thanks blenderfish!
