Wow...who is the one behind this video?

That's rather good - but it might require subtitles for those who aren't already familiar.

Did anyone clear this with Ralph first? Then again, it might be one of those things that would never get 'Greenlighted' from the rough concept pitch, but it shines when the get the 'Animatic' and 'pencil test' reel together.

Yeah, I live too close to Hollywood for my own good - deal with it.

At least I know enough to sign for a tiny piece of the Gross Profits, not a big piece of the Net Profits - because no matter how successful a project turns out, the studio accountants are wizards in making sure there never will BE a net profit (at least on paper...)

Looks like I have to get to work to see it, shazbot.

Uhh, whoops ... I didnt get it okayed with RH first, i really guess i shouldve but it was one of those on the fly ideas

i really hope that isnt going to be a problemo (ralph, if it is pm me and ill do what i can about removing it or if its something small, i can send you a copy of the file itself so you can fix it up)

not sure about how to do subtitles, this is my first music video thingy ever (thats why you might notice its a bit rough at the start ... i was basically learning as i made it

)

lyrics are here -
Im Still Here - Lyrics

And if you want Sol i could email you a copy (its about 11 megs) if you're having trouble with the download (the offer is open to anyone else too i guess)

He linked it in his LJ, so I say he is fine with it.
Thanks for the offer, but I would be in the same boat. Will wait till work to see it. Thanks again.

*DanG!!* It takes a plug-in for WINDOWS and I use a Mac.

BlasTech · Post by **BlasTech** » Sat Sep 03, 2005 8:49 pm

Ahh thats a problem with the program i used to put the gif and the music together (funnily enough windows movie maker only lets me save stuff as windows media player files

)

does real player work on a mac? could email you a copy and you could watch it on that?

I think that RH is pretty much OK with things we do with ToTQ as long as he's credited with it's creation (the comix/characters etc) and you don't make it obscene or humiliating or try and make any profit from it.

The sequence was a bit weird because I know the story, but all in all it was a GREAT JOB!!!

Thanks sharuuk ^^

I had to fudge the order a bit to make the pictures match the music

The stag scene got shifted in between choosing day events and quent got handed his questorship before the council hearing

(there was also one pic that snuck in from a totally unrelated part of the story, wonder if you guys spotted it)

at least the gragum storyline was in sequence

i had to put that part in because it was that story arc that got me hooked on these comics =^^=

Yes, all in all, quite stellar, I must say.

BlasTech · Post by **BlasTech** » Sun Sep 04, 2005 3:28 am

:D:D

*goes to find wherever steltek's hat flew off to*

Great video....

Anthony Lion · Post by **Anthony Lion** » Sun Sep 04, 2005 5:43 am

Great video... I think...

*Sigh*

My fancy new iBook refuses to play it at all, and sends me to a site to download M$ Mediaplayer...

Tried to load it on my Desktop PC, which has windows Media Player, and that only gave me the soundtrack...
(In a browser window. When I tried to paste the link into WMP it gave me some crap about corrupt file or wrong file type)

What, the shot of Quentyn in Sanctuary City where he gets ready to bust the chops of the bully but doesn't?

Yes, I caught that.

I'm in the same boat as most. All I can get is the soundtrack.

EDIT: Never mind, got it to play. Nice job BT. If my monitar wasn't acting up, then I know it would look better on my end.
