I'm pretty much inspired. I'll buy the first 100 dvd's :).

I lied, I'll buy 1, I'm a college student :).

But it inspires me to pursue documentary film making. Think you guys can help me out with that? :) Cause I think it's things like this that can help generate buzz, energy, and excitement.

I can already picture a new doc starting after the campaign and into the future of the movement. Focus on economic issues, how RP and the Austrians have been right all along while the Keynsians have been wrong and basically wrecked the economy, etc.

I have no idea what we will take on as a next project. Will definitely need a rest after this one is done.

It's not a lie if individuals state their opinions.

did you hear a narrator give the impression that it was a good idea?

or did the documentary seem to ask people involved what they thought?

no matter what you think about it, it would be pretty stupid to interview McKarnin and Trevor and not talk about the blimp.

I've made posts like that man - but I encourage you to take the negativity elsewhere.

My guess is they didnt interview anyone who thought the blimp was a bad idea or did not include it. So yeah its pretty one sided.

Seriously, I wasn't a fan at the time, but who cares at this point? This is a documentary on what the grassroots accomplished. You want them to have a debate right in the middle about whether the blimp was a good idea? Let it go man.

Robert Greenwald produced a documentary called OutFoxed (http://www.outfoxed.org/) which was made entirely of Fox News footage and never got in trouble. Since this is a documentary that is "to educate the public" we should be covered under Fair Use laws. It's a massive gray area though. The US Code is here (http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/17/107.shtml). In relation to the running time of the final film, network news clips will make up a very small percentage.

All our music will be cleared with contracts.

Good uses of expenditures of time and money is a judgment of the free market- those that wanted to contribute did- those that didn't- didn't. So this is the exact thing that our movement is about- free markets.

That said, I'm sure yours and Matt Colins postings kept some funds back as some reconsidered.

This is one video I will NOT torrent or download. I will purchase it for sure. If others cannot afford it I am sure that people will sponsor others to get a copy legit. Maybe that can be something that tyhe do with the website... Like a Buy 1 and Sponsor 1 type thing.

You have this in HD right? I'm ABSOLUTELY dead serious about this: submit it to the many film festivals. Wikipedia has a nice list.

They like to show movies of young directors or first-timers, often they are much worse. And even if they only review it and reject it, influencial people might have seen them. I would really try... an acception is WAY more probable than you would imagine!!!

Awesome Idea!! Most everyone hears of "Sundance" many don't know that that a dozen other festivals happen in Utah at that same time. That is just one state too. There are festivals EVERYWHERE!!

I looked into it, but it's pretty much a joke for small producers. You have to pay $thousands just to license the format. No replication houses will even press your disc without a license number from the BR consortium and pages of paperwork. People have been making a real stink about it though so they have pressure to cut the fees. As it is now, small producers are forced to stay on regular DVD because there are no fees associated with the format.

But we are planning ahead - mastering in 720p/24p so we'll have an HD final master for a possible BR in the future. For now we'll down convert to SD 16:9 and it will still look spectacular.

We're gonna have a bunch of bonus sections on the disc so we may have to press a double layer to hold all the data and still retain a high bit rate.


Will it be in VHS?

Let me think about that nope.

I can already picture a new doc starting after the campaign and into the future of the movement. Focus on economic issues, how RP and the Austrians have been right all along while the Keynsians have been wrong and basically wrecked the economy, etc.

I have no idea what we will take on as a next project. Will definitely need a rest after this one is done.

I will buy it.

I think you should make a documentary about Austrian economics. If there was a documentary on Austrian economics would be used to get students interested into the subjects. Try getting an Austrian economic historian like Bob Murphy.

edit: David Gordon does a good job of accounting for political philosophy.

The movie should focus on WHAT is economics, WHO were the Austrian economists, and WHY is it important today.

Heh... it wouldn't be that hard. You could focus on the life of Mises and teach economics that way. I think he had a pretty interesting life. =o

This is one video I will NOT torrent or download. I will purchase it for sure. If others cannot afford it I am sure that people will sponsor others to get a copy legit. Maybe that can be something that tyhe do with the website... Like a Buy 1 and Sponsor 1 type thing.

This is a good model.

I prefer releasing the movie free to get it in front of as many eyes as possible.

Make transparent the exact cost of production + man hours taken

Include in Torrent a text file that gives watcher an opportunity to donate more than $15 or whatever the DVD cost is

Make transparent the total $$ raised.

Donations will stop flowing when grassroots thinks you have been adequately paid.

I do not oppose selling the DVD traditionally, but this is an opportunity to show the world how artist can skip the middle man.

I just talked with the producer of a local cable access station and he indicated that they would be willing to flood the station with this documentary if given permission. If you guys are willing to let it be shown in this method than I will do what I can to get it worked out and will work on other cable access stations in my region.

Can you instruct us on how we can do this in our area?
What kind of station does he produce? What are similar stations?

We've been getting many emails from people inquiring about screenings of the documentary in movie theaters. While doing this big time on a national level would require a distribution deal with a studio (guaranteed this will not happen), that's not to say people couldn't pitch in and rent theaters in their area to show the film. We may even be able to provide 720p masters for HD projection. There will be no 35mm film print so the only way is to project as video.

If anyone is interested in doing this in their area, I would recommend calling around to theaters and getting their rental rates. Then assuming it would be a go, promote the dates locally in newspapers, etc and fill the house.

Doesn't matter if it was a good idea. We did it, and it's damn impressive.

Just because it didn't last a long time doesn't mean it wasn't worth it. Those that were interested donated and got what they paid for. I know they all wished it would have been more popular. But there is a legacy now of the footage of the thing flying with the RP banners. I think that the footage itself was worth it. It will be shown for years to come. In a sense, it will continue to promote Ron Paul and the freedom platform.

Silly rabbit. Could have scripted based upon a grid conversion. Looks cool though :)

Here is some footage of the cgi blimp that made it on CNN primetime during the whole blimp ordeal if you want to use any of it for anything, feel free to, royalty free.



I'm trying to find the initial 6 minute render.. ~10gb, >HDx2, 16:9 as intended, the 4:3 youtubes prevented seeing half of the RP + Hubble deep scan imagery artwork. That was a 2gb psd environment map... Sadly, I think I suicided it. Seems I only have my video conversion experiment files left... but if you want, let me know and I bet I can find it in a backup drive image.

The blimp was awesome. Forget the haters.
