DRONEVOLK documentary
 

My new documentary DRONEVOLK, still in editing fase, will see it's avant-première at PAUZE festival at KC Vooruit in Gent. The festival runs from November 29th - December 1st. - More info -www.kraak.net/pauze2007/

 

congratulations, Jef!

i hope to see it......(and you) soon!

I've setup a myspace account for Dronevolk http://www.myspace.com/dronevolk

I expect the trailer somewhere in November after finishing the film.
I'm also planning a website but in the meanwhile you can check the status of the film at the myspace page. I will update it when more stuff gets ready.

Good Luck!

sounds awesome!

yey, great scene you're covering.

Interesting stuff Jef. Can't wait to see what you come up with.

awesome!

I've added some more screenshots!














I'm also awaiting confirmation this week for screenings at a festival that bedazzled me by asking - I think Tokolosh would be extremely pleased :D

In celebration of my birthday - turning 30 -







DATE SHOULD BE 2008 DAMNIT! fix it later

Nice layout. I might just pop by. Can't promise.

Hmm will this be documented on youtube?

Cool. I'm interested.

I hope not!

I might have a better one for you Toko - I'm just waiting for confirmation.

But your more then welcome at my birthday party (free booze mate) - I'm not sure I can offer you a place to crash, already have a bunch of people staying over.

:( but is it gonna be released through anything, or just during the festival

I'm planning on seriously promoting the film for screenings in the first place and I hope to do so outside of Europe as well. But if I remember correctly you're from Holland right? I think you'll find a screening there in the near future.

A dvd release should happen but that would be for next year if I can find a label to release it. I've put to much work in this (not even considering the costs) to just wip it onto Youtube - I'm also not that fond of Youtube - and yes I have a youtube page :D

But this film shouldn't end up in my closet like the previous one.

More soon!

YES!!! I've gotten confirmation for screening during State X New Forms in The Hague, Netherlands on both December 14th and 15th!

Congrats Jef! I'm going to the festival and this makes it complete.
Will you be there?

awesome.

I'll most likely be in the Hague on Saturday. Kiss The Anus Of A Black Cat plays on Friday and Silvester Anfang on Saturday.

This week putting everything together - color correction and soundmastering and we should be ready. Oh and subtitles in English and dutch would be awesome! Trailer hopefully this week as well.

Can't wait to go!!!

hmm you're coming to statex?

I'm going on Satuday, friday and saturday would just cost too much for me.

yeah that's why I would be in The Hague on Saturday ;)

that's awesome. congratulations, jeff!

sadly i'll probably miss it though, as i'm pretty sure i'm not going to state x new forms this year. this edition is twice as expensive as 2006, while last year's line-up was about 10 times better, for my tastes at least. i'd really like to see silvester anfang again though, because i really liked them when i saw them last january and i recently missed them at sonic city due to my train being delayed. but they'll be playing holland plenty of times again i'm sure.

heh, find a way to get your film at the rotterdam film festival! :D

That's the plan Pokkeherrie - and there is a way :D
There's a small chance I can screen there, but that's for way later!

cool. hope you'll succeed. :)
the film festival promises to be pretty interesting from the little that's been announced so far. keiji haino and melvins will be playing live soundtracks for one.

ok, so the film is finally finished! Sending out the first preview tapes tomorrow awaiting first reactions. In the meanwhile there's a short interview I did about Dronevolk online at URBANMAG

IK BEN ALTIJD EEN OBSERVEERDER GEWEEST ( it's in Dutch )

A trailer should be finished this week - put it online when it does.

looks niiiiiiiiiiice.
What's the song in the background? reminds me of the ending of sy's halloween
, which is a good thing actually.
Oh, will the non-english parts be subtitled? Dunno if someone else already asked...

Nice!!

The song in the background is from Ignatz, one of the featured artists. Subtitled trailers are a coming!

Just sad I can't upload a decent quality trailer: youtube sucks at quality while myspace fucks up the trailer after upload - It drops a second or so.
The original quality of the trailer is way different.

maybe you could set up an account on stage6?

thx - trailer is up at stage6
DRONEVOLK TRAILER - STAGE6

Looks very good Jef, hopefully it gets here to the states.

I just missed the deadline for the SXSW film festival. Plus there was a 35 dollar submission fee.

I see, hopefully you can get it released as a dvd.

Yeah I hope so too. Mabey something for 2008.
But I'm really gonna try and get it screened in the States as well. Shouldn't be that hard. I'm setting up a website hopefully soon to promote it and where people can apply for screenings of the film.

Hey jef, glad you took into considerations the stage6 option.
Many people "understimate" it coz youtube is fashionable and stuff, but I think the better solution for a filmmaker to have his things "viewed" and appreciated would be post a "youtube quality" (obviously) thing on youtube and add his stage6 channel's name (can't remember if you can put links in the infos) "if you want to see/download a better version"... etc,etc.

Oh, don't mean to "teach" you how to deal with vids ( I bet you know thousands times what i know about this kind of stuff) but still I wanted to point out that, if you want, you could up a much better version (resolution-wise) of the trailer on stage6. It says it's a 352 x 192 vid...dunno if that's what you was going for, but I felt prick enough to point this out ha ha.
Fogive the grammatically awful rambling and keep up the good work.

looks awesome!

Thanks, Ignatz sounds promising. http://myspace.com/ignazt
