Envision & RebeccaD Present "Where Silence Falls"

Brandon, you changed your avatar! I like this one much better, good choice ... makes you look older. :grin:

Thanks man! :) I thought it was time for a change.

Maybe I DON'T want to look older... maybe I embrace my youth ;)
 
Nooooo, problem ... especially how long I kept everyone waiting for the finished BTS. The LARGE WMV file is now up online, and my PC's taking forever to render out (via QT7 Pro) a smaller QT file (480 wide for broadband - 672kb/sec).
 
Oh come now ...

Oh come now ...

Funny, I just noticed this thread went down to a four star (actually 3.67 with three votes) ... meaning someone just hammered it with a 1 star, which means they think it's a terrible thread.

That's cool, everyone's entitled to their own opinion, but I would sure LOVE who ever did it to be brave enough, not to just hide behind their keyboard, and state what they think sucks about this thread. :undecided

Not too much to ask ... I just always find it humerous when folks won't state something of discontent in a thread, but will secretly state their feelings in other public methods.

C'mon, be proud of your decision, own it, and let us know what we can do to improve the thread for you ... and/or what's so terribly wrong with it compared to others. Otherwise, it's a pretty cowardly thing to do, IMO.
 
Heh heh Norm

It was I

Noooo, I did not do it to nail you with a 1 Star; I noticed all of the Star threads and clicked randomly too see what it would do

Sure enough; it changed the score and when I tried to change it to a 5 it said

"We're sorry. You cannot change your vote."

I was like Doh !

-

No discontent here ! I expect some magic from you on this film !

(sheepishly slinks out) :undecided :lipsrseal
 
LOL! Got your PM too, John, thanks. At least it wasn't a drive by shooting with the mask on & everything.

As long as I know who did it & why, then it's really no harm done, IMO.

Seriously, thanks for stepping up, much appreciated. To be honest, I think I've made the same mistake once.

Oh, and HOPEFULLY there will be a little magic with this one. I'm not sure it'll have the same killer looks that Jack Daniel Stanley's pulled out of his before, but the story is definitely solid without a doubt. The performances (at least on Rebecca & Reid's parts) also warrant no apology & were spot on. So yeah, I'm hoping you like this one.

Thanks again.
 
LOL

I totally saw the stars go down and literally was like 'sh*t' (Not sure what I was expecting to happen; the stars aren't something that is used enough I think here)

-

Jack is on another level right now but we're going to start stepping up and repping dvxuser. Damn it.

-

We shoot tomorrow evening but the weekend is being messed with hard due to this damn freezing winter storm !
 
Very cool indeed ... nothing like uncertain weather conditions & last minute footy to up the pressure! I've learned I secretly enjoy the pressure.

NORM! I KNOW the feeling! My SR thread always seems to get hit by some junk rating, then some good ones... 35 votes with a 3.5 average. LOL! Gotta love it! Downloading the BTS now Norm!
 
I think that's pretty good for 35 votes! :thumbsup:

Just updated the main page (2nd post down) with links to smaller file sizes (approx 1/2 size) for both WMV and QT players. I'll have an iPod version up later tonight, most of which is for benefit of cast/crew that may want it. The smaller WMV still has a few more minutes to complete upload.
 
Hey Norm, I had to laugh because I was going to write and joke that I had given you the star but then saw Hudson's post. HAHA! Funny stuff. (Funny that he did that just to see what would happen!)

Anyway, I don't do stars but I did give you a 5 star rating to help get you back on track! (Besides, your thread rates it!)

I'll get to your latest bts video tomorrow!

-Ted
 
OMG! Well, I am still chuckling over the rate error issue. Okay, John.... you are gonna get it now. :nads: LOL. Just kidding! I'm going over to my girlfriend's house where we can watch the latest BTS. See you in a few!
 
Hey Norm! Great lil' video. :) Shew.... now i've got a lot to live up to in terms of a score. *pressure is on*

anxious to get started.

/j
 
Thanks Shawn & Justin, glad you liked it! I think, Justin, the only reason you've got a lot to live up to is not with whatever little stuff I did in cutting images together, but because you set the bar so high with the music of yours I used ... people may now associate that sound/feeling with the short.

So ... you did that to yourself, lol. :grin:
 
Oh, and Ted, thanks for that kicker back up with the 5-Star rating. :) Look forwad to your thoughts on the BTS video ... which, BTW, I could use your input.

My QT7Pro only has one default for exporting for iPod. But it apparently doesn't handle the widescreen AVI as well as I'd hoped, because the image looks a little tall/stretched. Not much, but just enough to where I notice & it's bugging me.

I'm uploading the iPod file now (updated the front page with the link), and will just replace the online file tomorrow, once I can get a rendered version that holds the correct aspect ratio .... got any suggestions/quick tips?
