Ehm... I think we need a Forum!

Hey, I think we need a forum...

For example, I need to know somethings like... <<and if I would like to engage a filmaking company to realize a short for me? how to contact?>> or perhaps <<can we estimate the costings of a short, calculating manhours, crew, hardware, taxes, etc.?>>

=)

We already have a forum, the Energia Forum.

thank you I will post there

Not sure but I think someones started a production for "general discussion" a while back... after all, the productions with tasks, shots and comments almost work like a forum.

Since it wasn't used very often, it probably sank pretty deep into the ocean of inactive projects... ;-)

The Video on the Homepage doesn't work

Hi!

The video "How to make a film through Wreckamovie?", accesible within the homepage, doesn't work... =(

I use FireFox, and yes I've got Flash Plug-In installed (I've got all plug-ins and extensions and add-ons such as java, flash, etc.).

Keep it coming!

Can't edit production

Hey everyone!

I have a few issues:

1. The info button.
This info button in projects does not seem to work. Everytime I press "Info" my browser stays on "Activity". I've also tried to manually edit the URL so it spells /info instead of /activity, but then I got the usual error "the site does not exist.

2. Uploading a picture for a production.
I'm not able to upload a project picture. That is, I haven't found any option which allows me to.

Browser info: I've tried Firefox, IE and Safari.

I'm sure there's a very simple solution to both these problems, but I haven't found any information regarding this in the FAQ.
Please let me know if you have any information regarding this.

Thanks!
Kevin

Help, im not able to use the "give it a shot" button. it just keeps saying something is wrng but wont say what;;;;;;;;;help

Joonas Aarnio September 30, 2011 08:29 Flag

Info-button should now let you see what it's supposed to show. The incorrect link was accidentally left there when testing new features.

Kevin, you should now be able to upload a production poster, when you go to your productions info page (which you obviously couldn't do before). Let us know if you need any help!

Matti Delahay September 29, 2011 09:52 Flag

It seems to be a bug of some sort, I've had the same issues with the info button for a few days (or more) now, seems like it always takes you to activity even when you start from some other tab. I'm using chrome so looks like it happens on most (or all?) browsers.

Can't Start a Production - Website issue

For the last two weeks i've been trying to start a new production page, at least twice a day. after i enter the name, ect, and click the button to start, it just shows a blank screen and never even tried to process. Its just absolutely not working on any computer that i try to use. I've also tried firefox, chrome, and EVEN ie (haha) but nothing works.

How to delete accidentaly created production

Didn't found an option....

Please delete the one I've created entitled To be deleted. Before it was called G4M3.

Peter Vesterbacka January 27, 2010 15:43 Flag

Thierry, that's exactly the way we have planned to implement it, just have not had the time. It will be done eventually, but some other, more important things first.

Thierry Gschwind January 27, 2010 12:26 Flag

Maybe you should be able to delete a production as long as no one has written a shot or a comment.
Or you have a button which will tell the admin that you want to delete that production.

Dario Odobasich January 27, 2010 12:16 Flag

OK, I've changed the title of one accidentaly created project as you described.

Peter Vesterbacka January 27, 2010 05:53 Flag

It's intentional. The reason is that we want to make sure we don't run into a situation in which somebody deletes a production and all the work of others is gone.

For accidentally created productions, just rename "To be deleted" and let us know and we'll get rid of it.

fees?

Hi, I've just joined wreckamovie and very enthusiastic about the concept. But have 1 question! In the FAQ's it says that wreckamovie is free for everybody. But in the terms that I have to agree on when registering, it says:
"Fees payable for the Service. The Customer shall pay STAR WRECK STUDIOS fees for the Service and its use in accordance with the price list or contract and at terms of payment specified by STAR WRECK STUDIOS. Using the Service requires prepayment for the Service by credit card or other method specified by STAR WRECK STUDIOS. Information about invoicing methods currently offered by STAR WRECK STUDIOS and its co-operation partners is available on STAR WRECK STUDIOS’ Web site. STAR WRECK STUDIOS and its co-operation partners may make changes to the offered invoicing methods and replace them with new ones."

So what are these fees? And what is meant by "The Service"?

Jantien.

Good thing someone actually reads the fine print ;D Well I'm only a user like yourself, but I've used Wreckamovie quite extensively over the last two years, and I've never come across any fees. So it's pretty safe to assume that paragraph is only included for services that were once planned to take effect in some distant future...

Cheers,
Kalle-Max ^_^

Changing Profile Picture

How do I change my profile picture so it doesn't always sync with my facebook picture?

Sounds like an "needed" option to me.

Angela R. December 05, 2010 12:25 Flag

I may be mistaken, but I think that once your wreckamovie account is connected to a facebook one, the image will always be synced unless the two get somehow separated.

Hello there,

I'm not sure this is what you wish to hear, but what a lot of people around here are actually doing (following Energia / Star Wreck's example) is actually place a low-quality version of their entire movie online, free for people to watch and download and share with their friends if they like it. Then, next to this, they try and sell higher quality versions and merchandise to recover some of the money they invested in the production so that they have enough to start another movie.

Good luck!
