Soon to re-open!

Yes, it is true! Prevues is soon to re-open! The Grand re-opening is set to be this weekend!

I´ve finished the first episode of the series. It clocks in at 22 minutes, and 10 trailers. What genre you ask? It´s the good ol´Rape/Revenge! It´ll be available from Megaupload first, but I´m gonna try to get into the Content Distribution from Mininova. (I´ll apply this weekend.)

If you want to get some technical info about the episodes, there a link on the top right of the site.

And just to let you know: all the previous uploaded single-trailers are now deleted. Some will maybe appear in an episode, but they will not appear as single files again.

I´ve also started work on a new DVD, I have 10 trailers ripped. But I have several more on various DVDs. More info about this later...

Be sure to check back in the next few days!

Technical info about the episodes

Here is some technical stuff about the episodes:

  • Encoded for iPod and iPhone (and iTunes)
  • File extension is .m4v, and is also compatible with VLC Player
  • Video is H.264, 1500kbps, progressive, multi-pass
  • Audio is 44,1 kHz, stereo
  • Image is 4:3. Some trailers are 4:3, others will be 16:9 letterbox (black bars on top and bottom).

All the episodes will be encoded with Compressor, from Final Cut Studio.

Size of each episode will vary, depending on the length of each episode. Usually they will be at around 250-300Mb.

Length of each episode will be somewhere between 20 and 30 minutes; no more, no less!

I will try to get the episodes from DVDs as often I can to keep the quality good. However, if I don´t find a DVD version, I may be using a downloaded trailer of good quality.

Onar Films in trouble


From the blogg:
As if I didn't have enough problems, I just received a threatening message from Yilmaz Atadeniz, the producer of the 3 KILINK films I have released, that our contract period is overdue and that I must either give him MORE money to prolong the contract or return him ALL my remaining DVD's!

Yes, our contract mentioned 18 months and I was stupid enough to believe that he wouldn't mind giving me a break.
I was stupid enough to ASSUME that after that period, he was JUST free to sell the copyrights to another guy too.
And I was stupid enough to believe that 18 months were enough to sell out.

And now....

So, while we're talking, I'll try to buy some time, for maybe 1 month and try to get rid of my 2 KILINK dvd's (KILINK ISTANBUL'DA & KILINK DOUBLE BILL).

Thankfully, I've ALMOST sold out KILINK ISTANBUL'DA.
There are about 120 dvd's left.
But there are at least 400 dvd's left of KILINK DOUBLE BILL, which means 1 month is NOT enough to get rid of them.

So, for about 1 month, the 1st KILINK will be available on my site. After that, it will HAVE to disappear!
I don't think I'll sell out in 1 month but I'll just have to remove it from the site.

As for the other KILINK dvd, I'll be offering it at a ridiculous price and then I'm not sure...
Return all the remaining ones to the producer?
Or double- pay like a damn fool a small fortune for a deadbeat that will not sell out even in 10 years?

I really don't know what to do.

What's worse is that Atadeniz will probably demand the same thing for stuff I haven't EVEN released!

I bought from him ZORRO KAMCILI SUVARI & MASKELI SEYTAN about 2 years ago and I bet he'll be asking for more money before I even release them!!

...Which means I'll prefer to NOT release them at all and stuff them in my ass, instead of doing him the favour and pay again before I even release them.

So head over to the official site, and support Onar Films! Buy the coolest DVDs of your life! Tell them Prevues sent you ;)
