Now, you would think that a thread like this would be the exact opposite of a bad thread, apparently not.. any ideas why?

Is it because it would attract to many n00bs with stupid questions, or because it sounded too sarcastic, it really wasn't sarcasim, trust me, it's just my natural personality angel

Just out of curiosity, if I were to start another, nearly identical thread, that would be a bad thing, right?

There's actually a music video contest thread right now, isn't there? You could always throw it in there.


Okay then, I will. Like I said, it's set to "Hybrid Theory" - Jay-Z/Linkin Park stuff - so it's got a certain questionable word in it. That a problem?

I am wondering if anyone has a backup of the hologram tutorial crewoftwo.com once had. I know there are others out there but I really liked their method. So...anyone?

Then he'd probably have all the more reason to know about it, wouldn't he?

As a relative n00b I appreciate having stuff like this posted. I would like to see some kind of answer to something like this:

What is the proper way/What is the appropriate method to posting a release thread for a fanfilm?

Or something along those lines. Thanks.

It all depends on how you want to do it. Some nice things to include are:

Release date.

Trailer releases.

Cast/Crew.

Extremely brief story/setting description. (Resist posting your script or a synopsis, as this ruins the plot before people have even seen it)

Posters.

Web sites.

Updates.

Make sure you've got all your ducks in a row as far as hosting and bandwidth goes before telling every one to try and download it.

Updated to hopefully cut down on the daily questions about legality.

Updated with a question about thread titles in all caps.

This is quite clearly the best thread on the JC, darn it.

I'm wondering, are films made from SW soundtracks and vid clips from other 'verses okay here?

I don't know for a fact which companies are and aren't willing to turn a blind eye to uses of their video clips.

I don't encourage it in any case, but that's speaking as a person, not a mod.
