Hey Guys,

I like the grainy feeling, and they look like those little movie posters we had in the 80s.

 

[Michael Schrengohst]

I like the idea...
I imagine you could rack up sales at .99 cents?

The irony, shoot 4K on RED to show on an iPhone???
Any plans for higher res downloads?

 

[Ryan E. Walters]

Great idea- I downloaded the app, but I am having troubles getting it to work on my hacked iPhone. At least it only cost me $0.99.

I enjoy your work, and you always do a great job with the BTS / extras. Keep it up.

 

[Ryan Paige]

Is that the dude from "Kindergarten Cop"?

 

[Steve Gal]

From 3 O'clock Hi

 

[Alex MacLean]

Great idea doing an App! Very clever.

 

[C. Jagan Mohan]

Good work

 

[Luca Immesi]

Very nice work. I'm also interested in this kind of distribution. What about the possibility to add different language subtitles inside the app?
Great job.

 

[Craig Schober]

nice work. i just bought it but you're going to need to sell a lot of copies at .99 each. looks like a fair amount of money went into it all.

will you be releasing an ipad native version soon?

also it looks to be shot in 2:1. did you ever consider shooting or finishing in 3:2 or 4:3 aspect ratios to maximize for platforms?

 

[Jason Beckwith]

Nice Job.

I bought it. Best of Luck!

 

[omar robles]

damn. i dont have no iphone ipad ipod. And i bought it from itunes without knowing. Is there any other way to view it?

Thanks bro! That was the vibe I was going for...:gun:

I do not understand why iTunes does not have a built in emulator for .apps

It seems like such a no-brainer for Apple to implement!

 

[Ketch Rossi]

nice work, working on two different platforms for the iPhone and iPad on a Future Film, well done!


I will be including also the new iAd in the project so to sale the Ap with the film for as cheap as possible, same thing with my E-Book for "Chronicles of Perseverance"!

 

[Shane Betts]

Nice work and brilliant distribution idea! Congratulations. Sorry for the below but you've got me buzzing now - and I know i'm just about to repeat what you already are doing Alex but...

:jacked:
We all complain (with good reason) about Apple deserting pro users to build i products but here could be the payoff. Finally a way to make some money back from your short films. Yeah, I understand you're going to have to sell a lot of 'em at 99c per but you need to sell a lot of movie tickets and DVDs to make a profit on a $300m blockbuster. Consider the number of people who access the iTunes Store. Making glossy little numbers like this for folk to watch on the train in the mornings is amazing.

When I first got hold of an iPad I said, "Cool device. It'll be great when we work out what we can use it for". I believe Alex and his buddies have come up with something.

Sorry for the hijack. Resume normal programming.

 

[Shane Betts]

BTW, a short Google search reveals that there are over 3,000,000 iPads in use. Plus iPhones and iPod Touches.

Alex, would you consider starting a separate thread to discuss this? I don't want to hijack the thread promoting your cool film (any more than I have) but you have me so excited about this, I'd like to discuss it.

Or should I just pony up my 99c and get the discussion there? :iagree: (Waiting for our iPad to be returned.)

Sounds like a plan. Where would you like to start the new thread? arty:

 

[Jim Geduldick]

Richard Tyson -3 Oclock High for the win...

 

[Shane Betts]

Sounds like it should either be under Red Discussion or Off Topic. Lead on and I will follow.
