What are you talking about? Why is it so fucking bad for me to put something up like this because we've been doing some good filming lately and I wanted to put something up to tease a little? (And also to use as a little promo to post as comments on MySpaces and such.) Unlike others, we're not saving it for a DVD that seems like it's never gonna come out that you'd have to pay for to see anyway. We have a new mix-up on the way and I just wanted to show a little something to let people know we're still filming. Jeez.

BFD did the same but months down the line. nothing. wheres 1 full clip? is that hard to release something that doesnt cut away from the action.

releaseing half a video. yeah thats awesome to watch. everyone will enjoy that.

you know you wouldnt be able to release a dvd anyway...not one that people would pay for to watch so yeah hype up 1 full clip by releaseing the first half.

I cant wait to see part 2 of clip 1...

also conplaining about having to buying a homegrown groups dvd is pittiful. yeah maybe if it isnt worth the money. but your on about it like buying any of them is out of line....maybe its money issues on your end, you could aford a dvd if you saved some of your lunch money

PEACE

P.S. a screen cap gives the same results as this video of "boy on ladder fallin towards a tree"

here take a look at this thread. after afew pages you'll understand the concept

Way to be wrong. That clip isn't gonna be on it's own in the end. We have more angles of it that I have not received from the other camera people because we filmed this yesterday. Maybe I would release it in full if I had it edited the way I would like for it to be shown. We're working on a mix-up. I already said it's just for the hell of it to show we didn't just fall off the face of the earth. And whereas I think we could eventually make a DVD that at least all of the people that know us around here would buy, I don't see the point because I'd rather not withhold shit for 3 years just to have 10 people buy it after so many promising to because kids these days are fucking broke. I'm not expecting to make much money off of this ever because I do it to have a good fucking time. Anyone who's in it for the money will get that money at times few and far between and is a sellout. If someone offers to buy a clip from me, of course I'm not an idiot and I won't say know. But it's not like I'm out there every day of my life trying to find buyers because it doesn't take much to get stupid shit gone wrong on tape. I have other things to do like go to college, work, and live my life.

BFD did do the same thing, in fact, a lot of other groups have done this, if I remember correctly. It's not a bad thing that you did this, I think the stunt could turn out rather nicely. Good to see someone is still filming, hopefully after our meetup with Arsemarks, BLL will get some inspiration and film out the ass.

I never said you filmed only 1 angle. you obviously have 1 WHOLE angle because you cut it in half and released a clip of someone on a ladder.

and you released a mixup not so long ago.... I must of missed the posts of people asking wheres MIA gone? they disapeard!.

and yeah I agree if you have 10 fans like you say you do, no point makeing a dvd for 10 people to watch. it speaks for itself.

on the other hand. other groups who have a worldwide fan base and expect a quality production I think they should spend time "living there life, work and college" and work on the product as a hobbie, like most people do anyway.

but if a filmmaker doesnt release everything they film free on the ineternet that makes them a sellout to you? fuck off.

ever heard of spending money to make money? and its easy to tell from your production you arnt filmmakers. just people who like filming stunt videos so kids from your school can see them. I never dissed releaseing stuff online. its just gay when people only release a 3sec clip of nothing worth watching.

I think makeing a dvd and what money you make back profit wise means you can upgrade cameras and fund the next project ect. geuss people who do that are sellouts...or smart bussiness wise.

but you missed the point totally so I that speaks for its self.

but all I said was I hate sneek peeks and dont see any point in them. thats my opinion. if you cant take opinions on your videos. dont post here anymore.

We have some ideas that are sure to amaze... Only problem is getting out there and filming them. We also have a new member, which definitely helps us out.

If you dont like sneak peaks next time dont click a thread that says "sneak peak" and then the video link labeled "sneak peak". This will save you some time in the future. Oh and, hope you enjoy the full mix up. :wub: Image file not present in the recovered backup

I believe that angle was a Sony MiniDV cam. Not sure on which model cause the cams not mine.

I never said I dont like ALL sneak peaks just shit ones like yours.

the thing with sneek peeks is they could contain FULL CLIPS. or even 1 full clip.

without checking it out I wouldnt know what it is...understand?

heres a sneak peek of a crew you guys would refure as "sellouts"

http://youtube.com/watch?v=cQ4FC61K2Po

a sneak peak thats over 8mins long....

why dont you save everyone time and just release a screen shot.

:rolleyes:

Good job twisting around everything I said to work for your benefit. I hope it makes you feel good about yourself. I didn't say everyone who makes a DVD is a sellout. I said everyone who is in it ONLY for the money is obviously a sellout. We don't need someone to post asking about our whereabouts for us to not be fresh in people's minds. People forget quick if you don't keep releasing some form of content. (I understand you don't consider this content, but it doesn't hurt to throw something out there.) I never said we had 10 fans. Might wanna re-read that. Talk about me missing the point. I think it's sick that some people from here have gone off to bigger and better things and I wish them much luck. I just hope they remember how it all started and that they're not just doing it for a paycheck. We don't just do it for kids at our school to see and we're getting an HD camera in about a week or so. We constantly watch videos and test out our editing to further better our production value. I know we're not your super HGF 1337 group, but at least we're putting in a decent effort to keep homegrown alive. I have no disrespect for you and I don't want to make a big fight over this. If anything I enjoy your group's stuff and I'm totally looking forward to that zombie flick you guys are working on. I understand I'm going to get bombarded with opinions and not all of them will be positive, but I just find it really unnecessary to come on here and tell us that releasing a quick little thing is shit just because we wanted to put a little something out there and wait to release the full thing because it's already going into a forthcoming mix-up and I'd hate to spoil the ending for when the whole big video comes out.

EDIT: And an 8 minute sneak peak for a 2 hour or so DVD compared to an 11 second clip for maybe a 5 minute or so mix-up depending on when we declare it done. I think that's a pretty close ratio. Granted it's a half a clip, but their sneak peek is very different from ours concerning what each is for.

I twisted nothing. I said I dont like half clip sneak peaks. your reply was you think people who spend years makeing full stunt films to sell on dvds are sellouts. where did that come from if it wasnt an insult towards groups like...oh I dont know..ill-advised? you mentiond no names. but it was a reply to me. and came out of no where. so it was directed towards me.

QUOTE
I'd rather not withhold shit for 3 years just to have 10 people buy it
who are these 10 people? I geust your fans because fans will buy products. so if they are not fans...what they doing buying your dvd? and why would you only sell 10. because the rest of your fans know it iwouldnt be worth buying?

anyone here whos taken their hobbie to the next level isnt doing it for the money. I think you'll find most people here including me has spent more than what will be made from dvd sales. its about the film at the end of the day. I dont care if I spend a million and dont even make half back. thats what its like to be a artist.

the zombie flick wont be finished for atlest 2 years because I have afew dvd projects to finish first.

good luck with the HD camera. and hella crazy 2 is around 50mins long. but you missed the point. burgaz said not to click sneak peaks like every one is always half a clip. when I was showing you it could be any lenth and any number of clips...its up to the group who they handle how it is....you handled it this way, I think its crap, so do alot of people here..check the BFD thread...

its a sneek peak of things to come. not a sneak peak to the rest of the clip. this was to show what we are doing, and represent everything else we are doing. its supposed to gain the attraction of an audience, but keep them to see all the other videos. instead of being a dickhead, bashing the shit out of it cause you couldnt see the rest of it. try giving us some credit, for actually having the urge to continue filming. what have you released besides a trailer for a zombie flick?

it doesnt matter what iv released online for you to watch. iv been filming and editing solid for the last 5 years. editing a full lenth stunt dvd thats in its final stages now.

good enough for you joe?

so ill be releaseing a dvd this summer. will that make me better than you? because it seems you saying because you released this half clip, it makes you better than me. but it dont matter whats been released. the zombie trailer holds its own so why say apart from that.

I gave my opinion. alex didnt like it so he started dissing crews who release dvds and hold footage back for final films instead of putting it all online asap...

alex had a choice to accept my opinion, nothings changed from what he said to me. and it'll stay that way. instead he wanted to diss me. and now his crew are signing up to hgf to try diss me too hahaha

I cant comment on the stunt because we dont see it, I cant say anything about the editing because its basic, you cant tell the camera angle.

what type of feedback do you want? I call it like I see it. and I saw a guy on ladder. then a black screen....fucking awesome!!!

I was actually on here since ######, and made a new account. I didn't make it just to diss you, you coulda said you don't like it cause theres no reason for it. instead of going into detail about how much we suck for releasing it. I haven't been on here in forever and this is why. Alex posts a tiny vid and it turns into a 2 page argument. theres no need for it. theres a difference between being opinionated, and being a dick.
