Hey There - I need some info translated from the StealThe Moon website.

There is a PDF about BGB but it is in german only.... can someone translate that for me?

Also one of the links to the main about this project PDF only displays an error message.

I would like to include these two documents in the submission packages for the new entries.
Also - if someone could send me the image file for the DVD case liner and the DVD labels then I can copy and print the same images here.

Thanks!

[Cari]

abu, could you do it? 

[abu7]

I don´t have the labels and stuff...

[abu7]

Cari, I just took a look at the pdf - therefore I just took the normal ppt about bgb and changed it into a pdf... I don´t have the normal ppt anymore, for the translation, I would need that! So could you please mail it again - or do you have an english version of that?

[Cari]

is it actually allowed to enter a film to a festival if its published at youtube before?
cause i guess we should finally publish our film at leat at youtube now. cause right now its published nowwhere 

[janusz]

yes, the problem of the rights to the music is solved: as the film get broadcasts again and again on NBC - they pay the usual fees.

I would like to close the project. To publish it on youtube would be a kind of closing it.

Maybe we can dub it. I don't want to count this possibility out. But right now we must admit that our facilities limited.

[Cari]

no we will never dub it. its just a lack of time.
its really really a pity, that we put so much efforts to the film, had a film premiere in germany and poland and though it was never regularly shown or broadcasted in germany.
its bad, but we have to accept that we dont have time for it.
we reached our aim anyway: the film has become popular in namibia. maybe it will even be some kind of cultural heritage in namibia, a film that every one remembers. that would be a dream come true to us.

further more i think we should make ultimate use now of broadcasting the film on youtube, as we know that we wont broadcast it in any cinema in europe anymore...

youtube will be an adequate channel for publishing.
and i think we should publish it as soon as possible (its already a mistake in my eyes that we didnt publish it there right away).

the only problem are the film festivals. we have to find out if this is a problem. and if it is we seriously have to think about what to do.
in my eyes we should maybe rather leave out the festival entry (that doesnt have good chances anyway), but publish the film as soon as possible.

at least janusz could make a start with publishing the making of NOW 

[janusz]

I will 

[Heather Mac]

Well OK, I will put a hold on any further festival entries.  We should know of something about these festivals in a few months.  Then we can call it "quits" with the festival circuit.

[Cari]

so do you we need to wait a few month before publishing it on youtube? 
i am not sure wether i understand what you mean 

[Heather Mac]

I think it is okay to publish "making of" but since I'm not sure about the full film and whether publishing it on YouTube would disqualify it or not ... can we wait?  It's only that the entry fees are already submitted so it would be a shame to disqualify.

But I promise I will not enter in any more festivals
