<div class="IPBDescription">the excuses</div> Just a little update:

I am cursed. |esp|hayaat, Insane etc can vouch for this. I was actually in the middle of recording some shots, making great progress with a clear end of june deadline when my computer died right in filming.

For 3 weeks I have had no computer and have only just built a new one. Luckily I have almost all the files except some of the new shots which I may or may not be able to get from hayaat.

All I can say is this isn't my fault other than being cursed all to hell.

I'll try my very best to finish it, I really will. Please sympathise with my situation.

Thanks

    Ah, so <i>that's</i> why you dissapeared mid-shot and I haven't seen you since. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I was wondering what happened to our beloved boondocks, sorry to hear about the computer problems.... speaking of NS movies whatever happened with the people at chaos films... i know they were working on a dark horizons followup and/or the NS 1.1 (now 2.0) preview movie, but if you go to their website there isn't anything about either film anywhere, regis or anyone got an update?

    Most of the talent behind Dark Horizons is now working on Pre-Selection, I believe, as well as the 1.1/2.0 trailer.

    merangue. <!--emo&::skulk::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/skulk.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='skulk.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::gorge::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/pudgy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='pudgy.gif'><!--endemo-->

    yesh, i have most of the shots, weiiew. alas a few were lost, but it's just right back to filming then! anyhow, it's going back into production. and hopefully will meet it's initial deadline! (before 1.1! which i guess instantly translates into 2.0 heh) . so here we go.

    btw, if anyone would be interested in helping, we don't have a schedule right now, but we often run around looking for able bodies to act when we want to shoot. so i'd ask if anyone wanting to help, and often sitting around in irc would idle in #planentns plz, so we can find ya easy <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I didn't realize that it was the same crew behind Pre-Selection... thanks for the info.

    How long is this 'Pre-Selection' expected to be? About 5 mins? 30 mins? They should recruit that guy that did the CS movie 'Militia 2' because that just blows every other movie out of the water.

    Have you seen the test footage, Jay123? It is <i>the</i> most amazing machinima I've ever seen, and that's the stuff that wasn't good enough for the final. <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Perhaps you should have neamed this thread "The Reasons" as opposed to "the excuses", which only makes one inclined to roll their eyes and say "yeah yeah..." <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    AFAIK The_Family_God, or his crew, is part of those making Pre-Selection, correct me if I'm wrong someone. ON TOPIC: Can't wait for boondocks or any other NS related footage... I'm an NS media addict.
