Loved the video man, glad someone is pushing the bmx video industry... and your spot on with the comparison to photographers on setup time/well composed shots. Loved the real titles as opposed to graphics... nice touch Sorry I have to get nerdy on you but as a bmxer/editor... -How fast was your 50mm and 85mm -Did you chose to keep the different vignettes from the brevis? -We have had the brevis overheat/randomly not turn back on for a few minutes have you had this happen? -In Justin Simpson's Jib Up to barspin it looks like the ground glass is not spinning is this compression. -Do you open the iris all the way on the hvx to perform back focus (focusing on the ground glass)? Or settle in the F4 range...? Keep em coming! Hey Joe…

-How fast was your 50mm and 85mm

-Did you chose to keep the different vignettes from the brevis?

-We have had the brevis overheat/randomly not turn back on for a few minutes have you had this happen?

-In Justin Simpson’s Jib Up to barspin it looks like the ground glass is not spinning is this compression.

-Do you open the iris all the way on the hvx to perform back focus (focusing on the ground glass)? Or settle in the F4 range…?

Keep em coming!

Take a quick look around torrent sites and you'll see that every major title released to blu-ray has been ripped and uploaded. I was BEYOND stoked on SOBP so please, please, please don't put faith in encryption and the like.. I want to see Mutiny around for a long time. (I own the blu-ray version, and yes I did both rip it to my hard drive, and make a physical backup for personal use.) I love the fact that Mutiny puts out ultra-high-quality stuff, and I also love that Joe and co. have the foresight to jump into HD and online-distribution, but betting the farm on the already broken AACS "protection" is surely the road to ruin. The following are links to articles detailing Blu-Ray's AACS and BD+ encryption being defeated: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/01/23/blu-ray_drm_cracked/ http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/07/07/blu-ray-and-hd-dvd-copy-protection-defeated-by-print-screen/ http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20070124-8697.html http://www.newsfactor.com/story.xhtml?story_id=58921 http://www.informationweek.com/security/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=206905416 I don't expect the average filmer/editor to know much about the way very large numbers work, or even how data passes thru digital components, but a quick google search would take a lot of wind out of your sails if you planned on encryption saving your ass in the brave new world..

It's pretty much is going to turning into a web dominating market. Kids don't want to buy a dvds anymore pretty sad. But if you are a fan of owning a high quality dvd then be sure to buy buy buy, to keep the market alive. In Europe the market for dvds is better then America. I learned that very quick with the vinyl dvd. Super Good interview Hum Shits getting so crazy with the dvd market. It’s pretty much is going to turning into a web dominating market.

Both have been broken. I would quite happily pay $10 for a full-length, unencrypted, BMX video that I could play on my iPod/computer/XBox, etc. Many independent music labels now offer the same with MP3s, and people pay because they feel like they're supporting the producers of the content. If you trust people to be honest and don't treat them like criminals then it should work out. Blu-ray may have encryption, but so do normal DVDs. Both have been broken.
