Worship the Sack

Notes:

Hey brothers and a few sisters! Well, here it finally is... my worlds 07 video! I recorded 23.5 hours of footage during the week of worlds 07, captured 7.5 hours to my hard drive, and edited it down to just about 70 minutes. I've gotta say this was the hardest video I've ever had to edit. I had so much footage and just INFINITE possibilities of ways to put it together. I did the best I could, although this video could still be edited more and more. I decided to draw the line, because I am ready to focus on other parts of my life right now. Just so ya'll know I spent about 100 hours on this video... or possibly more. Well, 24 filming, like 50 capturing.. and then maybe 50+ editing.. so yeah wow 130 hours approx. It is funny and trippy and a bit controversial. I had trouble with the girls section, but let me just say that I filmed both the men and women the same way. I also wasn't able to put everyone in the vid. There are tons of people that didn't make it. I had so much shred and so many interviews and I didn't even want this thing to be 70 minutes. Originally I was planning like 10-20 so!! But yeah! There a lot of people missing from the vid... Um Will Diggs, Takumi, Eric Chan even though I filmed him a alot!Oxana only has 1 run and it wasn't her best.. I didnt even get the polish or spanish ladies either!! So I feel bad that I have incomplete womans section. Also some of my interviews were so bad on my end sorry guys! Lol but by the end I really learned how to be a good interviewer heh!

But you know what?! All that being said I am proud of this video! I put my heart and soul into it and I hope you all enjoy it! Some people were asking why I named it this. Well I was at a party and I demonstrated footbag to a bunch of normal people and they said I must be in a hacky sack cult. One drunken guy yelled out Worship the Sack, and the rest is history.

This will be my last video for a while, so it is up to you guys to carry the torch! Pay attention to the way I film, and edit! I think it makes our game look a lot cooler and clearer!

Shred hard everybody! Let's take this sport even further!!!

Would it be possible to seed this as a torrent at some point? I won't be able to download this otherwise :(

I had no idea how to do it either so just checked it out, and it looks simple enough.

I'm using UTorrent, but I'm assuming the other BitTorrent clients work the same way. My steps will follow the way to do it with UTorent.

SO.

[STEPS]
1 - Open Utorrent
2 - Click on File > Create New Torrent
3 - Click on Browse to locate the file for the torrent
4 - Check the option "Start Seeding"
5 - Click OK

This should work, but I haven't tested it. I think it would be a really ideal way to get this movie around.

Link to a guide on seeding

Also, once it's seeded, you can go to Mininova and upload the torrent so that we can start downloading it.

BTW, SUPER stoked, I've been following your blog closer then a pedophile follows the ice cream truck, so I'm murderously happy that this is being released.

Good job on finishing what you've started, not the easiest thing to do in life. Can't wait to see it.

If anyone wants me too (and sam doesn't end up doing this) I'll make a torrent of this when I get done downloading it and make a torrent for it and seed it.
