NEWS FLASH: We have worked on costuming and finishing casting recently. We have patterns for most of the costumes currently. We have also filled up the cast list quite well now(although the list online is not updated yet). We have a few small changes to make in the script and we should be picking out fabric and taking costume measurements shortly. We will keep our loyal visitors informed.(We have some!?)
Angelfire has allowed us to keep our space it seems, but unfortunately you will all have to put up with pop-ups now. I do, however, assure all of you, that work on Unforeseen Visions will be at its peak this summer. After staring in awe at Episode II this morning, we have new energy. We also have more time and money(somewhat...) to work with this summer as I now have more than just Saturday afternoons free. The rest of the Suitcase movies will most likely not be placed on the website for two reasons: 1. We don't have that much room to upload them. 2. I will not have a computer capable of compressing and uploading them until almost September. Check on our progress as we begin pounding away at Unforeseen Visions.
Angelfire has decided to be evil. As of April 30th they will limit their space to 20mb unless you get their "Plus" plan which costs money. For now we won't be putting up the second or third suitcase short until we decide what to do. We may end up moving to another provider or have to take off The Suitcase and we won't be able to host any of our movies. We'll keep you updated on our condition.
We have finished all the editing for the suitcase trilogy! The Suitcase, the original, is already posted in the multimedia section. It is in Divx 5 format in order to save as much space as possible for the other two. You can download the divx codec and player at www.divx.com for free. Download the non-pro/ad version as the ad version contains evil spyware programs! We should at least be able to post either the second or third part of the trilogy, and may be able to fit both on if we remove the interview for a while. Hopefully the second will be uploaded within the next few days. Keep checking back for updates.
You may be wondering what's taking so long, or not, but either way our main setback right now is(other than time and money) costumes. But, since we're not able to film Unforeseen Visions quite yet, we've filmed a series of three shorts. The first is completed while the other two have to go through post-production still. We'll see about posting them online as we have limited storage space.
We have exciting news(at least to us). We have purchased a Canon ES8100v Hi8 camcorder! We were able to get an extremely awesome deal on ebay, so we went for it even on our strapped budget. We feel this will greatly enhance the visual quality of our fanfilm over our previous VHS camera we were going to use. In other news, we also now have a bulletin board/forum/whatever you feel like calling it. You can get there by clicking the link "Forum" on the navbar to the left.I have already posted a topic for you to add suggestions and comments about our website. Feel free to add new topics. Questions and comments pertaining to Eternal Storm Productions and Unforeseen Visions are always welcome. We will answer questions to the best of our ability without giving to much information about the content of Unforeseen Visions. We hope you will enjoy it as we will enjoy having interaction with our visitors. Don't forget to take part in our polls too!
You can now watch the interview streaming. Just head to the multimedia page and click on the interview picture. For slow connections, it is recommended that you use a resuming program such as Getright or Download Accelerator to download the interview instead of streaming.
There's a new page available. The Multimedia page found on the navbar to the left. There we intend to post picutures and video clips, and possibly sound bytes if we feel we have any worth posting. Currently we have the long promised web interview taped way back when in August. We are having problems with the streaming, but you can still download it. For those who don't know Mark(the less freaky guy), he doesn't really sound like that. ENJOY!
Our web page is back up after losing our domain name. We were able to registered it for another three years, so we should be fine until then. While you're waiting for the film to be made(as are we!), take part in our new poll here. In our last poll, happy endings beat tragedies out 16 to 13. It was close, but happy endings won nevertheless.
We've made a few changes since we last updated the site. First and most significant is that we've taken on a new staff member, Jim Guerriero and merged our production with Cammera Productions. We thought our script was good before and so we finalized it, but after going over the script again with Jim, we're implementing a few changes to make it better. We will try to make this process quick but not with a loss of quality. Jim is also an experienced filmaker and will help greatly during the actual production period. In other news, our domain name runs out on October 18th. We will attempt to register as quickly as possible, but the site may be down for a while or possibly some evil person may beat us to it. If we fail, we will still be able to be found here. Keep checking back for further updates in the next coming weeks.
After a long period of arduous labor we can proudly say that the script has finally been finalized. We are currently moving ahead to the next stage of pre-production: props and costumes. Never fear, this stage of the game won't take millions of years like before. We apologize for falling off the face of the planet. Web interviews, for any interested in meeting the directors, will be available shortly. As soon as we figure out how to stream. May the force be with you.
We posted a new poll. Check it out here. The script is moving slowly as we're all quite busy with other things in our lives. Don't worry, it's not dead, just not very active right now.
Well we've decided to change the script again. The changes also mean we'll have to redo the opening scroll too. It's all for the better though, so stick with us. We know that it's coming up on a year, but our goal is to have the best script we can write and then go from there. On another note, obviously Greg, with his huge fan base, has won our latest poll, so without further thought a new poll shall be implemented in due time.
A new poll has finally been put up. It has been more than a few days, but sooner than never. You can find it here.
No, we are not dead. And neither is the project. After a long busy stretch, Greg has freed up a bit more time to finish the script. The second half is at least halfway finished now and is expected to be done before summer starts. We have posted our staff pictures up to frighten everyone.(hopefully not) All except Dave's picture has been posted as his picture hasn't been taken yet. If anyone has noticed, it seems that our poll winner is choice #3. However, we will take into consideration the comments made. Most likely we will be using the width of choice #2, but with a better glow like #3. The glow on choice #2 is pretty bad. There should be a new poll up within the next few days. We hope to speed up our production and keep you updated more often in the future. May the Force be with you.
There is a new poll up now. You can find it here, and there is also a link where our other poll was towards the bottom of the page. Our last poll was "Who's the baddest Star Wars villian of them all?" and was won by Emperor Palpatine with eight votes out of twenty-eight. Past poll results will be available here, and there will also be a link towards the bottom of the page. Please vote in our new poll as it will help decide the way we do our lightsabers. Thank you to all who participated.
The guestbook has been down for a couple days now. It's not our fault, it's the guestbook people's fault. We hope it's up soon, but we have no control over it. Please be patient while we do nothing about the problem.
The angelfire site is now hosted on www.eternalstorm.com and .net. You can now email an individual staff member by going to the staff page and clicking the person's name. We're still working on the script slowly, but we at least have added some more dialogue to the second half of the script.
We've FINALLY started writing down stuff for the next portion of our script. We're getting there, it's just taking longer than we had hoped for. If you haven't voted in our poll yet, just scroll down and do so. We'll be ending the poll eventually and putting up a new one. Also, if you didn't know about our guestbook, it's on our Misc. page. You can also email us by clicking the "Email us here" at the bottom of the navbar on the left. The opening scroll is definitely finished now finally. WOOHOO!
We've added an email address for you to contact us. At the bottom of the navbar on the left is a link to email us at EternalStormProductions@mailplanet.net. We are still pondering about starting to write the next part of the script. We really need to start that soon. We'll keep you up to date.
The website is now working correctly with Netscape. If you had viewed it with Netscape before, I hope you appreciate how much better the site is now. We had problems getting netscape to view the titles on each page and using the different fonts. The text didn't always show up! But it's all fixed now so use Netscape if you so desire.
We've worked hard the last couple of days on the site bringing it to where it's at now. We've added the Creators page, the Miscellaneous page, and THE MOVIE page! We've also made some things better from their previous conditions.
Brainstorming for the "second half" is moving along well. About half of the brainstorming is complete. Another couple days we expect to start writing again!
We've decided to add onto the script instead of leaving the movie open for a sequel. It'll be cool, don't worry!
The script for Unforeseen Visions(a Star Wars Fan Film) is in the process of being finalized. This should be completed within the next few days. After this is done, we still have a lot to do.
"Star Wars" is a trademark of LucasFilm Ltd. Unforeseen Visions is a nonprofit endeavor intended solely for the amusement of ourselves and
"Star Wars" fans everywhere. It is intended as a homage to Mr. Lucas' creation. Please do not litigate. Thanks. Site last updated 9/16/2003.
