Bar Stewards montage

[Booth]

As a result of the 800 posts thread reaching the big 800 we've been good with our promise and posted some footage from Bar Stewards - over 5 minutes of it! Musical accompaniment is a track called "Ready For It" courtesy of Kill Devil Hills.

To download a higher quality H.264 mpeg4 video go to the following page (5 mins 4 seconds): Click here. (video hosting courtesy of Red Rock micro)

This is a real milestone for us, as the first real footage (apart from a couple of out-takes and belms) that have been posted online. Big thanks to everyone who contributed to the 800 posts thread.

147 Meg.!!??!? I don't know whether to laugh or cry! I want to see it obviously, but I'm at home and currently using GPRS signal @ 56kbps. Estimated download time is showing 11 hrs. 22 mins! Should I go to bed now and set my alarm for 7 a.m.?

Thanks Cop (I think)

Ha ha...

Well its worth 800 posts after all

 

[Dave Laurie]

It's not of of those limited offers is it? Sort of get now while you can, or here today gone tomorrow? 'Cause if it isn't, I could do the sensible thing (well there's a first time for everything) and wait 'til I'm at the Studio to see it.

No, it will be there for good, no doubt Joanna is hoarding it on her Completest's Guide already

 

[Fran]

Well Done Joanna!

Thanks Cop. Brilliant! It was worth all the hard work to get to 800! It's a great little vid! I really enjoyed the music you put with it too.

I usually hate Clowns, but that clown face with tears streaming down it gets me every time, and seeing him in the setting on the edge of the cliff in 'moving pictures' is even better/worse/better. (Y'know wot I mean!)

Hee, Hee, loved the giggling fit at the end!

Thanks Again!

So what do we get for the next 800???

(Only joking!)

 

[wiggy]

nice one! when did it get graded? it looks miles better, plus there's a few extra bits in there i havent seen yet!

 

[Joanna]

Well, yes it's a big file and so took a long time before I could play it all straight through...but Cop's right that it's worth the wait. Thank you, Cop, for posting that; it t'were brilliant....and had lots and lots and lots of clips in it, too! You definitely delivered what you promised! A man of his word! And I loved the song that was chosen to accompany the clips (was going to ask what it was, but you put that up at the end...well, almost at the end ).

Loved how Birty played those 'looks' he gave to Georgina as Carla ...and I'm still intrigued as to why Layton is dressed up as a clown! Oh, and at the beginning, it didn't half look as if the pylon had a major section missing from it! Trust me to notice that!

Btw, that 'you can stick me where you want to' bit was disgusting!

Thank youuuuuu!

No, it will be there for good, no doubt Joanna is hoarding it on her Completest's Guide already

Lol, Cop! I'll add it in at some point before I go to bed tonight (probably right near the top of the guide...partly so no one has to scroll down...and down...and down to find it!)...along with a bit of 'reordering'....

 

[Booth]

Cop, have you another version, my quicktime aint working for some reason

It's a h.264 Quicktime Tim, for maximum quality. There isn't another version up yet.

Are you running the latest version of Quicktime?

On a video with the same compression, Fran disabled the 'Enable Quick Draw' button, and it worked.

nice one! when did it get graded? it looks miles better, plus there's a few extra bits in there i havent seen yet!

I graded it here, but the other reason it looks miles better is that the last time you watched all the way through it was on a DVD which doesn't look as good as h.264.

Brilliant! It was worth all the hard work to get to 800! It's a great little vid! I really enjoyed the music you put with it too.

Well, yes it's a big file and so took a long time before I could play it all straight through...but Cop's right that it's worth the wait.

Glad you liked it, and I'm really glad we managed to get it on the site right before Cannes

Next stop will be a trailer! But as the African dude from Gladiator said, not yet... Not yet...

Haha, on that connection we could send you a few black and white jpg's that you could print and make into a flip-book

Also, on the subject of the leaderboard.

I think Fran should nick Tim's 3rd place as he's part of the crew

 

[Fran]

That's a really kind thought Mike, but Tim's worked so hard, I couldn't nick his third place off him. I'd feel guilty.

I'm more than happy to be number four. We got to 800 by teamwork and got our (very nice) reward, that's the important thing!

 

[Booth]

No worries. I'm trying to get another version, something easier to download on the site. Give me an hour or so as it takes a while to get something of that size actually onto the web-space.

[razo]

When is the ceremony?

I hope nobody has won any of the awards in Ant and Dec fashion.
