Posted project update #25The Pirate Bay court case is over
Yes, after 4 years of production the verdict finally came.
The Supreme Court decided not to grant the Pirate Bay founders an appeal leave, which means that the previous verdict of jail sentences and $6.8 million in damages will stand.
It also means that we can start planning the release of TPB AFK.
There is still much work left however. Right now we’re half way through the edit. We hope to have a roughcut ready by summer and do the post production, sound editing and music after that.
Hopefully we can premiere the film on a film festival and on the internet simultaneously, probably sometime late 2012.

Posted project update #24Happy 2012!
What's up backers!
Belated seasons greetings from the editing coal mine in Copenhagen!
It's been two exciting first months with our editor, there's still quite a lot of work left however. Within the coming two weeks we will know whether the Swedish Supreme Court will try the Pirate Bay case or not. That will determine when the film will be released.
In the meantime I've been blogging about the newly registered filesharing church http://www.tpbafk.tv/2012/01/oops-i-filmed-the-birth-of-a-religion/and about the exciting next step in the interactive part of the project - the Augumentary.

Posted project update #23Augumentary Demo
Super stoked to show you out first rough "TPB AFK: Augumentary" demo project.
Still some design and bugs to fix but this is what came out after two days of coding and brainstorming before time ran out at Mozillas Media Freedom and the Web festvial in London.

That's a lot of info going up in that video. Awesome! I'm still just as excited as the day I donated. Keep it up.

Awesome idea for embedding the links! It's a great way to get more info about the whole piracy/filesharing debate and movement. The only issue I had when watching the video is that the normal pause button didn't work like it should; when I tried to pause it and tab to another window it would start playing again, unless my mouse was hovering over the links, whereby it would stay paused.
Can't wait to see more!!

Posted project update #22TPB AFK one year update!
Post CommentDear Backer!
Tomorrow our blog turns one year old. Which means it's exactly a year ago since You helped me out. Next week I'm moving to Copenhagen to continue the meticulous work of transcribing the dialogue in the raw material. In November we start editing for real, anxiously looking forward to that.
Meanwhile I'll be getting some help from internaut hacktivist Henrik Moltke, do check out the film Good Copy Bad Copy he co-directed - I just posted it on www.tpbafk.tv/blog
Again, thanks for your patience!

From thepiratebay blog:
"With this said, we hear news from our old admins that they have received a verdict in Sweden. Our 3 friends and blood brothers have been sentenced to prison. This might sound worse than it is. Since no one of them no longer lives in Sweden, they won't go to jail. They are as free today as they were yesterday."
Is this true? If so I am very happy for them.
