Author	Topic: SECRETS OF THE SITH - A new fanfilm
majormorgan Registered: Jan '04	Date Posted: 5/3/04 3:36pm Subject: SECRETS OF THE SITH - A new fanfilm
	Hiya guys and gals... Well we're about 5-6 months off finishing our fanfilm for 'Secrets of the Sith'. For a full breakdown on what the film will actually be and to check up on progress on a week-by-week basis goto: http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/morganfilms Currently the site is the basic shell with placeholder pages for key sections, but it will be added to frequently with a barrage of articles, news, links, clips and images... Its looking quite good so far, I can't wait to post some clips for download... Enjoy! -----signature----- I Shoot. Edit. Move it around. Reshoot some more. Edit that. In the end, why stick to what you have got from principle photography? This is the digital realm, so every pixel is up for grabs http://www.morganfilms.co.uk

	Cool stuff, man. I hope you make your deadline. EDIT: Looked at your site more carefully. Sounds REALLY cool. I love the idea, I had one just like it once. I'm glad you chose such a cool format. It'll get people pumped for a movie that'll never happen . ~Neszis~ -----signature----- http://www.plpfilms.com

	5-6 months away, huh? BACKUP, BACKUP, BACKUP! This seems to be where most fan films that survive to be filmed die. Post is where the evil hard drive eating monster lives. BACKUP, BACKUP, BACKUP! Site looks good. Slow as molasses, but looks good. Neat concept. -----signature----- Jyro Kyrn "Boring conversation anyway..." Not dead yet. Just really busy.

	Thanks guys, wow repsonses were quick!!! I can't work out if the server is slow as hell or if I need to recompress my images... probably both... Anyways, 5-6 months away, not a problem as we shot it in a day about a year and a half ago and have been ploughing through tons of rotoscoping, 3d modelmaking and such whilst trying to pin down our ever expanding day jobs to stay alive... Its been a lot of fun and we're now into full momentum for the final stretch... Will keep the board posted on new updates, but in the meantime check out the site when you can for lots of cool stuff..! -----signature----- I Shoot. Edit. Move it around. Reshoot some more.

	I really hope your Trailers stink . . . because if they are great, then I am going to REALLY hate you for not making the full movie.

	Wait a minute I'm confused..I read you're webpage and it says you're just making a cool ass trailer? No film? But anyways I must say that I am impressed with most of what I saw....how can you not make a film? ~Rory -----signature----- Click here to view The Jedi Saga Website http://www.solid-roc.com Right Click here to see film http://www.solid-roc.com/movie/TheJediSaga.mov

	I like the idea... Its good you are keeping your goals realistic. I think alot of the time quality is lost for quanity/legnth. -----signature----- This message is best viewed with a SGI 22" monitor.

	thanks JediTAC..!! I think the trailers will be that good, just based on some of the key shots we are working on already, things are looking great so far. Feedback to the moving stuff is well received, I just feel it is time to start the 'buzz' to get people pumped for when it does come out !!!! We've had a ramp up time of about a year where we've been learning new skills and techniques and all of a sudden things are becoming quicker... Rory, thanks for the cool feedback, we're only sticking to a trailer [3 of them] because we knew we would never have time to make a film with the quality of visual and sound that we have!! To give you a taster here is a link a test shot that is 85% complete: (4.87 meg quicktime in sorenson 3 at 720x304) Fighter take off Here are some stills so far: fight reflection test 75% hanger matte painting 85% complete senate 3D model take_off The backgrounds are either 3d models and textures we've built from scratch or are photoshop matte paintings that I paint from scratch...! thanks all for your encouraging posts...!!! -----signature----- I Shoot.

	Hiya djr33 Have you tried right mouse click on the link and choosing 'save target as' and then opening up the images in paint or another paint program if the IE links aren't working [or are you in netwscape or another browser?] Thanks!! -----signature----- I Shoot.

	djr, Hiya, sorry things aren't working out for you. I've just been looking into putting files into the html... for the movie that is [images are easy...] Just to check do you have the latest quicktime? I think we are up to 6.3 or 6.5... Did you save the video file to your desktop and then open it up in Qt? Did the images work? Here is a placeholder for just the images and the QT embedded in a web page... served downloads The movie will take a small while to load... Hope this helps! -----signature----- I Shoot. Edit.
