Apocalypse II / Rogiro

It might not quite be the apocalypse, but The Ravages is a dark, low-tech, isolationist near future. We’d like members to vote on some key elements of it, including:

Zeno has commenced tests for the propaganda trailer for The Ravages, and time still remains to upload your photo to be part of this trailer whether an old or a new member (thanks to those who’ve done so, so far).

The Unfold teaser from Nine Orders on Vimeo

If you’ve subscribed to the twitter feed you’ll probably already seen the new teaser trailer for The Unfold, an amuse bouche for the full trailer that is in final development. We hope you like it, and if you do then please embed on your blog (embed codes for Vimeo HD, blip.tv or YouTube).

This is the first missing piece in the moving image puzzle that fills the gap between professionally produced and user-generated content. Trailer development has been shaped throughout by community feedback from the Swarm at The Nine Orders forums, which has accompanied posts on development.

Animator Mayec Rancel gives us a glimpse of the full unfolding world in the sci-fi project, with buildings breaking and shearing. Santiago Abadia adds an ethereal soundtrack, with a subtle ambience of alarms and the urban cadence. Thanks for all of their handwork collaborating.

Quick avatar mash

We want to find an easy way for members to contribute to the content of the Swarm project at every stage. The easiest way we could think of for you to contribute visually was by uploading a photo of yourself (almost as easy as uploading an avatar!).

So we’re launching a gather of photographs from members today… please contribute to our open source trailer by uploading now.

Photographs will be used to illustrate ‘The Missing’ — people who have disappeared during The Ravages (the climatic events that head a global meltdown) — as part of a fake propaganda trailer for the film project.

Sign in and upload your photo at the forum in this thread. It would be very cool to get as many Angels as possible in the trailer…

"Finally, a way to be an angel for a film production that doesn't act like the devil - a way to make movies without reeking of entertainment industry evil. That's why I'm proud to support this project as a contributor and an advisor."
