Hey guys,

We've been quite busy over here at Canuck Films. With our new Hauppauge HD PVR we are working on bringing you guys better viewing quality, at 720p. Full quality versions can not be hosted on the internet without expensive memberships on video websites or splitting the video into parts. Overall, we are very satisfied with the Hauppauge unit itself. The sleek design, LEDs, software and the quality are very nice. The LEDs on the front of the units let Blackbirdxps15, our camera guy know whenever he's capturing or not (previously files would go ghost, because we forgot to hit capture), the software is also easy to use and relatively crash-free and the quality is amazing compared to our old DVC 170.

Here's a brief test conducted with the Hauppauge. Not our best video, but here you go:

Youtube: 720p/480p/360p(really?)

The video has stirred quite the war on Machinima.com. But we remained calm and polite throughout the discussion. Thanks to Ukilledkenny7 for getting our backs, we are once again in his debt.

On another note, scripts are going up on Triond.com as we speak, but if you want a personal copy, with all of the; proper spacing, numbered pages, etc, we have versions up on Filefront.com as PDFs. Enjoy them.

Last, but not least, for the entirety of the month of April, Blackbirdxps15 had embarked on the script writing frenzy known as ScriptFrenzy. The sole objective being to write 100 pages during the month of April. The story he wrote is about the story of Ultimatum before the series' start. You can view it here, via download on Filefront. Warning, this is an intensive read and has emotionally disturbing content.
