The first feature film in 720p on youtube is We are the Strange ^ ^

I saw some press release where some Hollywood studio was making a big deal about posting theY feature films on youtube in the future and I was all ...I already did that in 17 languages?! whUT?!

So to set the bar even higher for them to reach to catch interweB wacko's like myself I have decided to post We are the Strange in it's entirety in 720p. The film was made in 1080p but Youtube doesn't support that yet.... but when they do I'll post that too ^ ^ but I'll probably be done with the new feature by then and I'll have some crazy new ideas as far as what I'm going to do with it....

Am I afraid that no one will buy my SD DVD if they can watch it in HD for free? Not at all... Why? Because my films are made with passion and they cannot be duplicated or replicated... I put my heart and soul into my films...Hollywood just puts....money.... and today my friends...I say thats not enough!

  2. The DVD is good as it has extras like commentary, alternative soundtracks and deleted scenes that you don't get on Youtube (yet ^-^)

    But the problem with the HD version I have at the moment mdot is my interweb is super slow at the moment, which makes me :C Hopefully I can watch it round my mates house over the weekend to introduce them to the strange in glorious HD xD

  3. Awesome! Congratz!!! Hollywood is FAIL, it's time has come and gone. I do believe the real future of film is with people like us, THE creative people, with tools like the internet available to us.

What format should I render out of Cinema 4d with?

UPDATED 2_27_13!  RENDER USING EXR Lossy Zip16! Since I'm working on a new feature film that will generate over 1500 shots made up of image sequences I need to make sure I choose the right file format to render to lest my hard drives explode. What I need from my format is  at least 16bit, an alpha included and preferably small size. I rendered out a frame from my film tallied up all the file sizes here- their all different types of codecs listed from smallest file size to largest. The render includes an RGBA pass, Depth pass, and Material Luminance pass because thats what I always render out. 1.00mb 8bit-Photo Jpeg %100 1.27mb 8bit-PNG 4.65mb 16bit- EXR lossy ZIP16 5.75mb 8bit-PSD 6.23mb 16bit-EXR lossy PLZ 6.44mb 16bit-PNG 7.94mb 8bit-TIFF 8.50mb 16bit-EXR Lossy 24 9.05mb 16bit-EXR Lossy Run Length 14.6mb 8bit-TARGA 22.4mb 32bit-EXR ZIP16 24.6mb 32bit-EXR Zip1 25.6mb 32bit-EXR PLZ 29.3mb 16bit-TIFF 29.3mb 16bit-PSD 40.0mb 32bit-EXR Run Length 58.7mb 16
