Eva live action... the horror the horror. Stupid cash-ins.

---------------

Watched the rest of the shorts on the Grasshoppa! DVD. The another short (except Anno's which I mentioned before) which really stood out was this one called Comedy by Kazuto Nakazawa and Studio 4C. Although it says it's part 3 of a series, I think the episodes must be standalone works.

Anyway, Comedy is really interesting. Imagine a short anime that somehow captures the gothic, dark and quirky parts of Sleepy Hollow. I think that's the closest description I can give of it. It's peculiar but entertaining and very pretty. Lots of style.

Of the other shorts, I think the one I enjoyed most was Frog River, another live action short. I need to see the first two episodes but there were some great characters.

As they are pretty reasonably priced, I think I may well get volumes 1 and 2 in the future.


P.S. My Kiss DP450 now plays divx3 files. Awesomeness.

Hey Ian, OT comment...what codec was that file you gave me yesterday? I have Divx5 and it wouldn't play.

Damn, I used the xvid fourcc instead of the divx one by accident.

You can either download and install the xvid direct show codec from here:

or you can use this program to change the FOURCC from xvid to DIVX:

Hey, Ian... could you prod Nate for us. He hasn't responded to email about his DDDR track yet. ^_^

Thank you!

"it'll be to Ken by the weekend"

Also, Jeff has done some editing on the video as well - just incase you are preparing credits etc in advance.

Are there any other major gaps at the moment?

I don't know.

If we fail, Ken is planning to show DDR 2nd Mix.
