The updated version you just uploaded is much better audio-wise, thank you! Please keep these settings in mind for future episodes too!

Eugenia, I've read a lot of your posts and I appreciate the help you've given me throug them. But I can't understand why you always have that "punishment tone" when you try to criticize the work of anyone. I'm not saying that we shouldn't be severe with those who aupload crap to the internet, but these guys have talent and they deserve a better treatment.

They uploaded this for us. They are not asking money for it. We can watch their work for free. We shouldn't punish them for their mistakes. There are ways to suggest things.

So, please, Eugenia, when you criticize the work of someone, is better if you measure your tone. Remember that a good advice is better received than a scolding.

Sorry for my english, if there is something wrong with it.

I hope you to be fine. I'll keep reading your posts that are a huge help for me.

Asdrúbal.

Asdrúbal, it might sounded harsh to you, but it wasn't the intention. I have been talking about the audio issues from episode 1, so when I got into episode 4 and saw that the audio was even worse than in ep1, it was a natural reaction.

And before you start criticizing me about all this, I suggest you read the discussion here hv20.com/showthread.php?t=23551 and see what $%$% I ate in the face for supporting this effort. The "haters" of this effort are others out there, not me. In fact, all I have done since even before the release of this show, was to support it any way I could. From giving feedback, to hyping it on my blog. I even wrote to several scifi news sites to cover it, and even contacted the StarGate producer (which I am acquainted with) to let him know of his fellow Vancouver filmmaker and hopefully offer assistance. Naturally, I needed it to have a certain quality, because I believe in it. Trent has been really open to feedback and fixed most of the issues reported, and I thank him for that.

Now, I know that your comment is an accumulated reaction to my comments over the years on Vimeo, and not just about this single occurrence. Let me tell you this: I hate half-baked cr@p. Therefore, when I see some videos that are hyped but they are not up to snuff, I am speaking about it. I always say and write what I think: some love me for this, others hate me with passion. But one thing is for sure: I am not fake, I don't lie or sugar-coat my words just to be likable like most people do.

Anyways, I am looking forward for episode 5.

ha ha, ah yes, the infamous reflection shot! I guess it is kinda hard to miss ;) A polarizer would have been nice to have around that day! It's definitely something that could be removed in post, although Sean crosses behind it making the post work more intensive! If I ever get the time to fulfill my dream of releasing a director's cut of this series it'll definitely be gone!

Right now Ep5 is becoming a major scheduling problem so it will likely be delayed. Most of it is shot, but we are having problems getting all our actors in for the last scene.

Ep5? How close? :)

Just recently someone else had also pointed that series out to me! Looks awesome! Hopefully I'll get the chance to sit down and watch it soon!

We use a Rode Videomic on a painters pole into a Zoom H2. Not the best setup but it works (kind of).

That reflection would be a bit tough to remove b/c of the movement through it. The simplest I can think of would be to create a plate with no reflection in photoshop, then match the movement to the shot.

thanks!
