UPDATED - L'Étranger - 85 days in Font
July 15, 2008, 04:03:55 pm
My film is finally finished. Those who read my blog will know that I filmed a lot of the stuff I climbed, mainly as a way to be able to look back, but also with vague notions of perhaps putting a couple of them on bleau.info. By the time I was ready to leave I realised I had far more footage than I anticipated and so I decided to put it all together for anyone who was interesting. I'm hoping that will be some of you hombres!

The trailer is available right here;



But it will look loads better if you clicked on vimeo and watched it on their site as it will then be HD instead of this tiny window as displayed on UKB.

If you want to read a bit more about it then go to my blog via; www.unclesomebody.com

The full film will be available for download very soon. I just need to get it uploaded which will take some time as it's rather large. I'll post up a link as soon as it's available.

Enjoy.

The live link is now available from my blog, www.unclesomebody.com/blog . The only version available right now is the HD version, so if you aren't on the tech curve, you're going to have to wait for the SD version. Everyone will be able to watch this version on their computer or via some media centre so 99% of you should start downloading. I really do recommend that you download this version as the visual quality is very high, and it will only enhance your viewing pleasure.

As you've read on my blog, this film is free to download, but I am making it possible for you to make a donation to "Unclesomebody Productions" after you've watched it. If you are a UKB member, please let me know this information if/when you decide to make a donation. Thanks.

The film is 55 min in length, nearly 2Gb in size, and is encoded with x264. If you find you aren't seeing anything when you try to play it, it's because you don't have an x264 codec installed. You can get one very easily by downloading and installing this; http://www.free-codecs.com/x264_Video_Codec_download.htm .  Of course, you could always just watch it with VLC (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/) which will have no problems playing it. However, it's highly likely that most people will have this codec already on their machines... so don't worry!

Apart from that, get your download on! I really hope you guys/girls enjoy it.

Nice trailer, looks excellent and I look forward to the full release.

Would it be feasible to set up a torrent for aiding dissemination?

I was just wondering the other day when you'd post this up, looks good.

(Whats the esoteric slab then? - i'm sure it says on the full thing)

and what kind of file size are we looking at?  ;D

What's that soundtrack? It rules. No wonder you got strong listening to that, although it does put the image of shirtless men on a dance floor into my head - you know who you are x

Thanks for the compliments. Without sounding like I'm hyping it up too much, the film is better than the trailer. Actually, I really struggled trying to make the trailer. Anyway, the download link is now live in my blog, so head there, have a read, and get your download on. Dobbin has updated the first post of this thread to reflect this, but has accidentally deleted the original post (to be rectified soon).

Look forward to hearing any responses...

I'm slightly concerned this is all going to be way too technical for me and I don't think I can download onto the work computer, I'm going to give it a go and then come back and moan when it doesn't work  :boohoo:

I'm just intrigued to see what beats have made the final cut out of the 5 billion terabytes on your hard drive! ibook G4 is patiently awaiting SD version. Effort on this beast.

Can't wait, looks fucking ace, am downloading it now in massive anticipation. Keith, what's the tune of the trailer? I don't normally get into techno until about my second gary, but I could listen to that all day long and I'm straighter than Mother Therasa right now.

Very nice work. I am so ready for the forest after watching that, its pure enthusiasm. I enjoyed the epic final boss battle at the end. Well executed.

I wanna be like Keith. 8)

Wow. You've downloaded and watched that quickly! Thanks for the comments.

The track in the trailer is Mathew Jonson - Marionette which you can find on Sven Vath - The sound of the sixth season.
