Filming is DONE

Hey everyone, I'm reporting that the filming for "The Tunnel" is now completely done. I still have some editing to do, but that should be pretty minor time-wise compared to the death march the rest of this episode has felt like. There's still a lot of soundwork to be done, but the majority of that is being done by other people, which finally gives me a breather to work on something else. I'm very happy with how the episode is turning out and I think it's going to be the best one yet atmosphere-wise.

I was going to have a couple new Freeman's Mind episodes this month, but I found out on the 11th that the last day to submit videos to Machinima.com was the 13th, so unfortunately I can't publish anything during this time. The earliest I can submit a new video is January 3rd, so it's my intent to have at least one Freeman's Mind episode completed before then. I'll go ahead and expand the progress chart for the Freeman's Mind episodes as well so you can monitor that if you're curious. I plan to get started on episode 30 in the next day or two. It looks like I'm going to be eating my words about 2010 being more videos than ever, I really underestimated just how much work "The Tunnel" really was, I'll talk more about that after the episode is out.

For non-video stuff, my main focus is replying to my very large backlog of emails, getting more subtitles up (I still need to review a lot of them), and hopefully getting a forum up and running at some point in the near future.

More videos are coming!

EDIT:

I'd like people's feedback about what topic categories they would like to see for the future forum. For example, one possibility is something like this:

-Civil Protection

-Freeman's Mind

-Other Videos

-Gaming in general

-Source Engine information

Or maybe CP, FM, and everything else should just be under one category of "Accursed Farms Videos." It doesn't have to be necessarily related to the videos, gaming, or machinima, just has enough interest that people coming here would want to discuss the topic. Feel free to list your suggestions in the comments, or you can email directly.

 
YaY! It's almost done!

Merry Christmas Ross, and a happy new year!

yeeeeeessssss,

its a great surprise, i seriuosly didnt expect any updates,

well, i hope to see the tunnel or the next FM soon

happy holidays and good luck with the editing

 
Great work Scott. Don't eat your brains out now. Get some well deserved rest and bring me my FM episodes around this summer ^^

 
Lol yeah maybe he could just make Episode 3 himself,and then Valve would shut down because they cant compete with that level of awesome badassery. Freeman's Mind is the reason i started playing Half Life. I bought The Orange Box for 360 and play it all the time,and have made my own machinimas from HL2. Theyre inspired by FM,and no where near as good. xD

 
Huzzah! Awesome work and can't wait for more videos.

P.S. Get that donation button up; I feel guilty consuming all of this great content for free so far.

 
Awesome news Ross

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to You.

P.S. I second what polyorpheus said: don't forget that donation system.

 
Well I'm glad this appeared, I was afraid AC had died down D:

I'd love to see more Freeman's Mind in the future, that's always fun to watch, but any videos in general are acceptable if you ask me.

 
Fair play for you getting there Ross, and don't worry about doing a freemans mind, be sure to relax and take a break and have a Merry Christmas

 
When i opened the progrespic i almost suffered a shock from all that progress being blown to me at once...(disregard the fact that it sounded...strange).

really hope you're not going to be busting your ass of ON christmas day Ross, i think you should take a couple'o days off.
