In Response To: Re: Halo Movie (Dan Chosich)

: I can't
: say how long it took in time of weeks but in time of hours I worked on it,
: it has to be close to 2 thousand hours,

This MIGHT be an overestimate - 2000 hours is 12 weeks (of 24 hour days), or (assuming you did NOTHING but work on the video for 18 hours a day, then spent 6 hours eating, crapping, and sleeping, with no breaks) 16 weeks (which gets us back to the first week in April).

2000 hours is 50 weeks of 40-hour weeks (a year's worth of labor for the average joe).

I'm sure you put a boatload of time into it... but 2000 hours seems high. :)

(I'm not trying to be an asshole, either - just trying to inject some reality. :) )

On the bright side, I just found you your first mirror - The Psyjnir Webmaster has let me put it up at the Psyjnir.com hotline site:

hotline://psyjnir.com/

(Go to Halo -> Movies -> Reminisance.WMV)

mythica.org is still running at over 10000 kb/sec (22 gigs of the Matrix movie in just under 4 hours; it's definitely slowing down, at the start it was spitting out files at the rate of almost 8 gigs/hour), but when it slows down a bit I'll toss this up there, too.

No offense intended on the time correction - I wish the internet allowed facial expressions, you'd see I'm smiling. :)
