Hey All! Just an update from the production front.
The producers (read: Winn and his wife) are watching the film tonight for final edits and quality check which means we go off to replication SOON!
I've had a few people look at an early screener copy and so far the feedback has been very positive.
"A great introduction to the hacking subculture for a general audience. Some inside jokes but still very accessible. If you saw it on TV you would NOT think home movie! And the lack of flashy graphics Discovery-style graphics actually adds to the credibility and that refreshing 'in the flesh' and 'warts and all' feel of the piece. Certainly a better overall quality of work than some stuff these networks have aired." - Stephen Cobb, CISSP
"This documentary is a succinct ambassador from the hacker culture; it snapshots their modern-day affair with technology, necessity to transcend established thought, and the discovery of family in unlikely places." - Cygnus, HackerPimps
"Enlighten yourself, and watch this movie. Then send your kids to join the industrious, interested, amazed, joyous, freeing crowd of investigative inventors in the Internet and elsewhere - the hackers!" - Fred Cohen, inventor of virus defense techniques
So that has all been pretty exciting! I can't wait to have you all see it at con!
REMEMBER: FRIDAY NIGHT!!!!!!! I still don't know what time, but hope to find that out soon. Anyone have any ideas?
I'll be there in a fancy dress - it is my film premier after all ;-P - and ready to present to you the project that unexpectedly took a year of my life to make. I only hope you all like it as much as I do. :)
Check out the website mid-next week for full reviews and more updates!
The producer (ahem) wants to start heavily promoting it soon, so be on the lookout for more information! :)
Thank you all again for your continual support! This has been very exciting and I can't wait for con!
