Magnifient trailer!!! I truly do hope I have the opportunity to see the final version. It looks like something truly amazing to behold.

[Shamelord]

Thank you for your nice words, darkpath.

I hope the final film will as much to your liking as this trailer seems to be.

The film itself should be available in a couple of weeks. The end of almost three years of passionate work!

I'm downloading the film right now; but I'm having trouble with the .SRT file. Sorry to trouble you; but I'd very much appreciate it if you wouldn't mind having a look. I'm sorry to say that the only language I'm fluent in is English and the only non-English languages I have any real training in are Asian in origin.

Terribly sorry to be a nuisance.

[Shamelord]

No problem at all, darkpath. The file should be downloadable without any difficulty now. If you still can't download it we will solve this by email, as this file is very small.

I hope you'll enjoy the picture.

[jaguar007]

looking forward to watching it

[darkpath]

I've got both pieces downloaded and found I could get them playing nicely together in VLC player. In case anyone is having trouble with syncing the two pieces together, try VLC player, as it's available for MacOS and Windows platforms.

[Professor Dent]

I'm downloading it now. Thanks for the technical assistance, darkpath.

[Shamelord]

Have you been able to download the film without problem?

Dr. Shatterhand has announced the release of Shamelady on his site.

Thank you!

Just watched it guys, and you really did a nice work. Of course it's a fanfilm and can't be compared with an official (= funded) production, but you did a quite professional job, with a nice cast, and the many references in the scenes make it a very entertaining movie.
And by the way, I must admit that I have a little crush on Gizmo
Keep up the good work! I'm looking forward to watching Shatterhand!

Would have been nice with a dvd cover art for thus who want to burn a dvd

Shamelady est merveilleux! Le meilleur Bond fan film a jamais fait, je pense.

I've seen a LOT of fan films but this one trumps them all. It is so cleverly made, with so much love and attention to detail. I particularly like the po-faced-ness of it all and the wonderful production values - the effects are incredible. A Gallic Bond is not the first thing on everybody's minds (although, in real life, Lambert Wilson nearly made it), but Serge Rotelli has a sort of Michael Billington lean-ness that could have really worked in a parallel universe. I like how they treat the language too: Bond is a fluent French speaker, after all. Of course, the one thing this film does very well with is girls: Claudia Baqu

[Shamelord]

Wow. Ace, what can I say before such a review but to say I am flattered? Thank you so much for appreciating the huge efforts that it took us top produce such a monster - at our level, thats is. I don't how my ego can handle the comparison to Spielberg but I will do my best.

More seriously, Shamelady is not flawless of course, but nothing we could be ashamed of. I am pleased that you loved the many in-jokes and references. These were put for you, gentlemen. I am also appreciative you enjoy the main credit sequence as it was both a joy to do and labor intensive.

Mr. Twilight, I can't give you a DVD cover right now. But your message had me start work on it. So you can see what will be on the front cover here:
http://www.constella...?id_rubrique=54

MkB, I passed your feelings to Gizmo who now resides in the Netherlands and she is most flattered. Realising her new popularity she asked for a trailer for the next film.

Unless you tell me otherwise I may use your reviews in some capacity on the Constellation Studios site. Please do spread the word about the movie release to your Bond fan friends, let's not keep this amateur production a secret between some happy fews.

Thank you again for enjoying our production.

Phew. Glad someone got that!

I would forward them the comment... if I could be sure that they don't understand English properly!

It looks very promising indeed. Looking forward to see the final cover art.

And of course a big thumps up for the film by the way. I'm not so big fan of fan films in general but this one was in a class above all I've seen so far. Very professional if I may say so about a fan film. Congratulations!

[Shamelord]

I'll post some cover art very soon.

Other than that...

I am pleased to announce that yesterday, 16 December 2007, Shamelady had a glorious screening in famous theater of Paris called Grand Action. 150 persons were in attendance including some members of cast and crew and many James Bond fans. Serge Rotelli and Irina Bogomolova have come from Switzerland especially for this event. All the presidents and some members from every European James Bond fan club were there too and it was good hearing them laugh at some in-jokes like the Roger Moore picture.

If I am to believe the reactions, the two-minute applause over the two-and-a-half end credits as well as the number of DVDs I was asked, they liked it!

I might add that watching the picture on this giant screen in top quality was quite an exhilirating experience.

Many thanks to all those who helped organize this event. This was a great day and the culmination of three years worth of work... until the release of the remastered DVD of the movie in a few months time.

[darkpath]

I very much enjoyed the film; but I was unable to devise a means to convert the film to MPEG2 for burning to a DVD without losing the subtitles.

If anyone has been able to do so, I'm willing to host the .ISO file for download in exchange for getting a copy.

Wow! I'm sincerely happy for you, guys! After so much work and dedication, the movie really deserved to face a live audience. It must have been a very moving experience for all the crew. I hope you'll have other opportunities for such public projections.
Cheers!

Thank you, MkB! Oh yes, it was. The audience was wonderful, enthusiastic and people laughed when they were supposed to. That was reassuring!

Darkpath
May I suggest that you use ConvertXtoDVD by VSO. It's a small easy-to-use software where you can put the video and the subtitles. The result should be good.

Good luck !

Shamelord,
Got all the bugs worked-out on using the English subtitles and was able to watch Shamelady without interruption. Very well-produced film - my congratulations and appreciation to all involved!

I look forward to a more Fleming-based Shatterhand, based on the recent trailer it will be quite exciting and enjoyable.

Keep up the good work!

[Shamelord]

Thank you!

While working on Shatterhand I'm trying to trim a little fat here and there in Shamelady for the future DVD edition. It's hard to imagine how much just a few removed frames cab change the pulse of a scene.

[Double-0-Seven]

I just finished watching the film. It was easily the best James Bond fan film I've seen. I rather liked the references to other Bond films. My personal favorite was the reference to the 1954 Casino Royale with the line, "Are you the man who was shot?", "No, I'm the man who was missed".

The film had a great cast, great sets, good script, and great locations. The effects were quite good as well, especially the plane explosion at the end. I am very excited for Shatterhand. Great work once again!

[Mr. Blofeld]

My advice: Get Rich Douglas for Shatterhand.

[agentjamesbond007]

LOL, I thought he looks like a hybrid of Lazenby and Moore. Maybe he just has that "generic Bond" look, not that there's anything wrong with that. Look forward to seeing some footage!

That's what I was thinking. Anyways, I was just watching Shamelady on YouTube

Runs at a time of 56:05.

Watched it a few days ago (subtitles worked only with RealPlayer). Good work! I was jealous, thinking if we could do something similar with the mates in Greece... Too much hard work I 'm afraid, not enough time.

Looking forward to Shatterhand. In the meantime, I 'll spread the word about it in Greece.
