Back to business

June 26th, 2007 @ 12:48 | by Timo Vuorensola

Hi, folks.

We had a good one-week vacation, during which time we tried to keep our minds off the Wreck and Iron Sky, and focus only on other stuff like doing nothing for example. Now we are back in business, and we’ve been getting our stuff together.
As you might remember, Samuli and Steve had a nice little speech at Creative Commons’ event in Croatia, and they had some great time there, meeting other people with the same kind of thoughts and presenting Star Wreck, Iron Sky and our brand new (well, not so new if you’ve been following our stuff…) concept we call Star Wreck Studios. Although I wasn’t there, I heard that Croatia was a damn beautiful country, sun was shining and people were great and very interested on Star Wreck. We heard a lot of interesting stuff - for example that there’s a fan club in Venezuela having a monthly meeting on Star Wreck, and also in African market there’s a pirate-DVD out as well (in addition to ones we’ve found in Russia and China). Wonderful!

As we’ve had a lot of interested towards Star Wreck Studios concept, we quickly put together a site where one can drop their e-mails to hear first when we are ready to release something more - just visit our teaser site.
Here’s few links from the event:

iCommons - Announcing Star Wreck Studios

June 13th, 2007 @ 20:34 | by Timo Vuorensola

Hello, everybody. It’s been a little while, and we’ve recovered from the exhausting but fun trip to Cannes. Next, the Star Wreck circus is heading east, to Croatia, where annual Creative Commons’ event is taking place this year.

Samuli and the Stephen Lee, the CEO of our new company Star Wreck Studios, are having a conference speech at iCommons about Star Wreck and collaborative filmmaking, and officially announcing the the beginning of Star Wreck Studios - a platform that has been evolving in our brains for the last two years under a working title ‘Raven’s Nest’ - and a site where you can sign up to be a beta tester once the platform is launched hopefully later this year.
Most of you are not present there, but fear not, the speech will be streamed also on Second Life (in real time) - so if you are a resident in Second Life, just go to slurl.com/secondlife/Annenberg Island/187/67/40 to be the first one to know, what’s going on. For those still new to Second Life, visit www.secondlife.com and register yourself as a resident there.

We will also release more info after the event about Star Wreck Studios, the team behind it, and the stuff we are working on here in blog and in forums, as well as in our newsletter, so you’ll know more if you are not able to join the event at Second Life.
Rumour has, that even Pirk might have taken some time off of his busy schedule conquering the world, and might pop by to say few words to his minions.

More info about the event here and here.
Ps. We are also working on to build a Second Life equivalent of Star Wreck Store in Second Life - just search for Star Wreck and you’ll get there! (It’s still under heavy construction, but you know, we’ll get there some day!)

Pps. At the same time, Dwarf, Sherrypie and Fukov are joining forces and heading for Provinssirock to cause some major damage… You may follow our adventures at Star Wreck photoblog - and come say ‘hi’ if you are around!
