VideoCopilot.net Video Tutorials & Post Production
Anyone who knows me knows that I follow Videocopilot.net A LOT! I was one of the first to purchase Action Movie Essentials when it first came out. His latest product, Pro Scores helped us out a ton with this last project, and it came out just in time too! Check out the promo.

Behind the Voice
Shreyas Sukumar 
was the one who was kind enough to let us use his awesome voice talent in the style of the Movie Trailer voice (Don Lafontaine, Nick Tate) that everyone is familiar with. His impression is the best I've ever heard and he will soon be posting more videos on his youtube channel. Please check it out when you've got the time. It's totally worth it. Here's one of his impression videos;

Our rating was at a four and had just suffered the blow of several "1" star reviews (more than likely from other competitors). Lets bring it back up! Rate it and get everyone else that you can to rate it also. Keep the votes coming!

(Please do not embed the video, embedding doesn't allow it to be voted and skews the votes away.)
It's looking awesome and has a TON of potential among our competitors!!! Please view and vote for it. The top 20 with the highest rating will be reviewed by Taxslayer's Judge panel and one lucky video will be awarded not only the grand prize, but be aired on National Television.
Please help us campaign our video. It's up to us to get the rating high enough to be judged by their team. Please do not rate the competitors' videos badly. There already is a lot of negative campaigning and voting in this competition, we can choose not to participate. In video competitions like these, I find that the ones who's intently give bad ratings to other videos particularly are competitors with multiple youtube accounts who's video doesn't stand a chance. We don't have to lower ourselves like that.
Please let your family and friends know of our work and get them to vote too! Remember, you can vote ONCE A DAY!!!

Up to date again...
A lot has happened in the last two days. I'm happy to let you guys know that this project is very near completion and I can't wait to post it up for all to see! I am very proud of all your efforts and your support. It is now 3:30 in the morning of the 14th that I am writing this. This project is due on the 15th. Of what's at stake here, I'm putting every ounce of spare time we have into polishing its post production. Everyone who contributed to the project went above an beyond what I had expected. I want to assure you that I will be putting in that same effort on my part.
There was some debate as to how much longer I would be staying employed at Teleperformance AT&T. Due to the schedule, money invested, time spent, and overall scale of this particular project. I have, without hesitation, voluntarily quit. The way I see it, it needed to be done sooner or later anyways. But the extra time I'm given will be invested in this project. I want to assure everyone that I hold this project in high regard, and this project will be submitted as best as it can be before the due date!

Up to date
I do apologize that I haven't been keeping up to date with the blog as much as I should have. I have lost lots of sleep over this but want to say that it is very close to being done and there are several technical things that we are attempting to polish before we post anything more official on the site. Please stay tuned!

5 days left
Hey everyone!
Well we've reached the last 5 days and we're almost done with the video. We just got the movie guy voice from Shreyas. They sound AMAZING! Ben found Shreyas from a video of him on youtube:
We're so glad that he's on board with us and we are just blown away with his work so far.
We're going to try and get as much done tomorrow as we can. We won't have anything to show until Monday(or sooner!). SO stay tuned!
