Interest for Mega Meet 2010 DVD/Blu Ray (poll Added)

[Scoobydoo]

Doovde so I can watch it on my Joovc LucDe TIV

[NotAWhiteGTB]

Im keen on the DVD ;D

When will it be ready for postage?

[Guest]

Definitely Bluray as there were a few HD camera's floating around

[djr03]

ok to clear a few things up (seems like there are a few unknowns)

i plan to have 2 versions avaliable, a dvd version and a bluray version which will be pritty much the same apart from it being in 1080 hd, both versions will come with printed dvd cases (cant get my hands on bluray cases in small numbers)

nick, the blu ray disks at jaycar are they inkjet printable and what brand are they?

im halfway through making the video and waiting for one video but it will have 2 slidshows, main feature approx 80min long and a few other clips including a highlights video approx 4min long

if you got a 2009 mega meet dvd you will have an idea what it will be like.

as for when they will be done i am going away for 2 weeks from this weekend so it should be ready early july!

seems like there is a bit of interest!

If the original footage was shot in HD (1080p, sound format ?) and you can keep the cost to ~$20 or less, then Blu-ray.

Or HD digital file.

Otherwise DVD is fine.

ok the feature approx 80 min long was filmed in 1080i with my hd camera in avchd format

highlights clip is the same 1080i

im not sure on the slideshows if they will be in hd (i hope so but never made a bluray disc! so not sure)

audio will be in stereo and am trying to make a 5.1 track (but it would not be like the movies you buy it will mainly be the music converted to 5.1!)

cost for bluray is slightly dependent on numbers but will be no more than $20 max hope to be cheaper

[newsuba]

Nix on fake 5.1.

Just leave it in natural stereo.

As for format, I've had a change of mind.

Make a DVD for the masses and upload the HD version to a host for optional downloading.

That will avoid any hassles and costs in making a physical BD.

Yeah if people are of a mind, their gear will have Dolby Pro Logic II to do that on the fly for them anyway

yeah if it's music it's better in 2 channel anyway. 5.1/6.1/7.2 only good for movies.

how about a dual-disc edition for those of us really keen? i.e. dvd + blu-ray package?

[newsuba]

DVD + BD ?

With uncompressed PCM sound !

[kamineko]

i vote for multiple audio tracks. one with whatever music you add and another without

best of both worlds

[djr03]

what i was going to do is have 3 audio tracks, basicly the same as last years dvd (if anyone noticed)

1= orignal sound in true stereo (no music)

2= orignal sound in true stereo and music

3= orignal sound and music in 5.1

but we will see how it goes

as for the dvd and bluray versions, basicly all that would be diffferent would be that dvd = SD and bluray = HD

so that was the plan anyway

i could do a dual disk edition have no idea on price tho i guess it would only be a few extra dollars for the extra dvd ? :-\

not sure if many people would be interested in it though

[djr03]

update!

im waiting to hear back on the cost of blu ray discs so not 100% on cost for that but

blu-ray version $16 TBC +p&p if required!

dvd version $8 +p&p if required!

and limited run on dual format version (includes dvd & blu-ray) $20 TBC +p&p if required! (Approx 4-5 copies made)

ive yet to encode them and try the discs out so wont be taking orders untill its 100% done and tested!

hope to have the covers up soon for you to look at

[petrolheadjman]

How do we get them / pay for them?

[djr03]

if you in wellington you wont need p&p (i live in wellington) and at the moment it will be a bank deposit.

and here are the covers for the 3 versions

[spark_38]

Yeah I'll take the dual disc version as well. So that doesn't leave many of those left.

[NotAWhiteGTB]

[djr03]

if anyone is fimilar with adobe encore cs5 let me know cos thats the programe thats holding me up!!!!!!

[djr03]

things have started to go my way and ive managed to fix the big issue so hope to have all the test copies done mid week (fingers crossed) and if they are ok i hope to be ready to take orders this time next week!!!

sorry for the delay i has been a bit of a pain but hopfully it will work out in the end!! (it better)
