Gosh, I've been doing everything wrong. I really need to take your seminar. For quality of that level, shouldn't the telephone number be 1-800-99-FILMS?

Fantastic job guys!

Indeed a great video clip and all in good fun. I loved it!

Yet, I am troubled that some multi-screen food service establishments I have attended would probably view the practices shown as their operating norms.

Caveat emptor, film going public. Support film done correctly, er right.

I'm sorry if I'm dense and missed this, but where is this video clip? Reading these reviews I really want to check it out.

I laughed when i saw the part where Joe threaded the tail.
I know someone who actually tried to do that, but not in the same way.

The clip is on the front page of the site available for download to forum members that have sent in their pictures for placement beside their posts. Since you have not yet done this, you will not be able to download it until you send in your picture, or wait 2 weeks for the "VIP pass restriction" disappears as it will then be available for download to the general public.

Did anyone else notice that the big 754 meg download looked jaggy? I downloaded the MPEG and although the resolution is lower, it apeared much sharper.

Josh, the big 754 MEG download is only playable in full resolution with the programs that were listed on the download page. That file is actually the original DV camera resolution, but unless you have the programs and computer editing equipment it will look worse than even the smallest download.

TO ALL: Please read carefully before picking a download. Don't just find the first "blue text with underlining" and click on it. We are offering 6 different versions to choose from to suit most anyone's computer setup, but with those kind of choices comes a bit of confusion.

The QuickTime downloads are the best quality, but you must have the QuickTime player installed on your computer. If you do not have QuickTime player, download one of the last two options, as they are in MPEG format, which any Windows box can play without additional software. Do not download the "DV QuickTime" if you do not meet ALL of the hardware and software requirements.

To the people who sent in pictures this evening, your accounts will be activated tomorrow.

Thanks for all the comments so far! It was really fun to make both during the shoot and during editing. Did you know that all my dialog is dubbed? I'm not talking about the narration, I'm talking about the parts with lip sync. Eric Estrada did the new voice

So has anyone played the full Quicktime DV version on their TV's through the firewire yet? I'd like to hear what you think as well!

Also if you look REALLY close you can see an extremely light shadow cast over a random small object in the background of one scene. That shadow was cast by none other than Ethan Harper! So I guess he deserves some credit as well.
