Studio Update 5-1-07 (Happy birthday Irie)

In the studio working on the dvd, making sure the graphics look sick and the video definition is on point, compressing, anti-aliasing, de-interlacing our asses off to make sure everything is tighter than a stingray's arse, testing dvd menus, making sure all the buttons are assigned, no dead ends in the dvd, easter eggs in place, commentary toggles on/off at the touch of a button.

Everything is falling into place to create the best independent skateboard dvd ever, when this vid hits shops it will be worth all the wait. Thanks for hanging in with us, expect more mag coverage when the dvd hits shops. Check youtube for namethisvideo clips and trailers

Email me for stickers

Plugging away in the lab,
P & K

PS: Thanks to Niko for all the invaluable advice in completing this movie.

In studio at this moment finishing a skateboard movie...blog attack day 1, namethisvideo updates ad nauseum...news has not been updated for a little minute, we've been upto our noses in finalizing dvd, authoring the menus, adding bonus features and trailers and commentary, encoding, compressing, testing on tvs and xbox and pc/mac, packaging and dupes, advance copies with full packaging to distros this month, video dropping on shops worldwide, easy peasy to find and purchase on the interwebs as well...

In other news, Florida's Vladi Iliev moved to SJ and has been filming enough to earn hisself a full part at the end of the Fla. section...Vladi is ripping hard and clocking hammers right now, and director Paul is putting him up/putting up with him in downtown SJ.

News updated all the time now until the DVD drops, look for bulletins on tha 'space as well.

Prepare to be stoked to skate by the best and most comprehensive indie skateboard vid of all time. Bonus shirt and stickers included fo 20 bones. Bust your piggy bank open kids, it will be worth the wait...
