it's weird how you asked who's having official parts and then you posted many ads of team riders with the text 'new video "strange world" in progress' in the corner.
i guess you answered your own question subconsciously.

Zero's art direction is stronger than ever - I didn't notice it until i saw the ads posted one after the other in one spot. The imagery is great. Strange World will undoubtably be sick.

as long as their is rattray and sauder footage I'll be psyched

I think Mumford said in that Jon Goemann thing that they have a full video out in July or something. I'd love to see it, Goemann and Allie are so rad not to mention Anthony Schultz and Conhuir Lynn, the video will be sick as fuck.

I've completely dug Ben Gilley's shit since he was a youngin' in Label Kills.
Whether he gets a full-on comeback, regains pro status or not, I'm just really excited to see a new part.
Second chances are lovely.

ellissa!!!! next board i get is going to be an ellissa, 8",

i have a strong feeling that all the videos everyone is really hyped to see aren't gonna come out till next year... this one, flip, and probably emerica. hope not but that's how shit's looking.

i dont hope jamie will have a part, i saw him almost collapsing doing a heelflip at batb

Yeah I felt the same way seeing all the new ads. This video is sort of flying under the radar with little hype which means it should be tight.
JT's ad is pretty cool and reminds of this. Actually all the ads are sick too.

fucking so stoked for this and emerica. I am getting really sick of watching the fallen & alien workshop video ALLLLLday at work.

It's almost the end of the summer and no video!Goddammit why do you hate us JT?
James Brockman will have killer part though.

i wouldnt be surprised if tancowny didnt give all his throw away to zero and all the bangers for STAY GOLD, cause i bet SG will be bigger and better than any crap that jamie t rushes out...
or maybe the kid kills it enough to have two bangin video parts in a year...

I just want to take this moment to say that I am very pleased to see a Gilley and Steamer pro model in the Fall 09 Zero catalog.
Thank you.

Looks like the premiere will be the last few days of October...
We're going to do a video every year around this time and have rotating parts in each vid.
This vid will have footage of everyone in montages and shared parts; with full parts of 5 or 6 people.
...I'll work on my heelflips and hopefully have a part in the next vid.

sick.
it seems a lot of companies are doing the, "more-vids-with-a-rotating-cast" type thing these days. is there an economic reason for this or is it just more fun to do it with less people more often? just wondering. and the steamer pro model? YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES!

figured since this is the original strange world thread we should keep stuff going in here. the premiere is tonight. anyone going?
-
I wonder if they'll have an SF premier. Can you confirm Mr Suck?
-
I'm at the premiere right now. Ill post a write up later tonight
-
Just got out of the premier the video is amazing. Garrett hill first part. Its long and insane my favorite part for sure. Keegan second part skates to a flower travilin band song has tranny and rail stuff. Marissa del santo has a full part prolly the sickest girl skater ever. Elissastemer, gilley, sandoval, and a few people I haven't heard of are in montages brockman has a crazy part but he's lame, jamie thomas has a part that's all filmed in a warehouse its kinda short but solid and its put together cool. Dane burman has a part with the insanest ender. Chris cole and tom asta share a part cole has an insane ender and they skate to jeezy it is amazing. Tacowny last part. Also rattray has a part. Ill post more if I remember.
-
video was sick! Tom Asta was super steezy and probably my fave, Cole killed it of course, Garrett was insane, Brockman was sick, Marissa puts alot of dudes to shame, and Tancowny closed it out...all in all it was a sick vid!
-
Can't wait to see it.
-
damn, no Steamer full part? A "Ladies Only" Marissa/Elissa part would've been rad.
-
They fucking gave that fatass piece of shit the last part? Zero sucks even more.

burman hardflipped the heath gap, fucky killed it too

it wasn't, but to narrow it down Jeezy referenced cocaine, getting money, bitches and "all theez otha niggas." hope that helps

:'( :'( :'( :'( where's sheldon?!
-
Cole to Jeezy....sick!
And Sandoval has only stuff in a montage?.....that sucks!
-
The jeezy song was something with the "turn my swag on" instrumental. l mean everyone was screaming during the whole part so it could have been someone who sounds like jeezy, or a song with a bunch of different rappers. Also I just remembered that the steamer/donovan/iforgotwho else/cervantes/sandoval shared part/montage had "never marry a railroad man" by the shocking blue. As far as the rest of the soundtrack, everyone in the theatre was screaming so loud that I couldn't recognise anything. Rattray skated to what kinda sounded like pentagram, brockman skated to some metal song, tacowny skated to something that sounded like led zeppelin but I'm pretty sure wasent. sheldon is in a montage.....also the video is only like a half hour or so long, and hill, burman, cole/asta, and tacowny are the only parts that exceed a few minutes long. On a similar note, word is that the slave video will be in shops in a week or so, and is very cheap

i don't know if this is just my opinion or not but I'm going to say this anyways,
I'd rather see another zero vid in maybe 4-5 years. if you release it annually, it kind of lose something in the process and it won't really mean anything anymore to see a new zero video. it's like your videos are being turned into some kind of vapid marketing commodity. please don't do that.
I see your point, and agree with it to an extent. But jamie is looking at this how kids see it. You start a video when a kid is 12, and by the time it comes out he's almost 16. A lot can happen or change about skating in that time period. Not to mention everyone on the team has other obligations. Sadly footage is the main factor how we measure a skaters worth, if someone goes 6 months without dropping something people assume they've fallen off or are over it. So waiting a few years to drop another video isn't really the best idea if you want to stay fresh in skaters minds. I read it on here all the time. If you don't put out a part a year you are written off and forgotten about. I don't feel this way but the masses do, hence why a site like the berrics is so damn successful. There is no attention span or memory for the masses, they can't be bothered with anticipation.
Relevancy is key in marketing skateboarding today, regardless of your perspective on who falls into that. Obviously people make a living off a name without doing much, but I see those days as being numbered shortly. Fuck I hate this mindset but I can see that without an extremely strict schedule for releasing coverage you become the next steve durante.

even still, isnt new blood a couple years old?
no, pretty sure new blood came out in 2005. which means strange world was four years in the making. i don't think that's rushing things. and i know the reason a lot of the top guys on the team don't have full epic parts is because they filmed parts for fallen (jamie thomas, chris cole, tommy sandoval).
-
nobody on fallen had a full part. garrett hill and dane burman killed everything. jamie's part is seriously a joke. marissa del santo is the craziest girl skater alive

i thought he would be getting curtains seeing as he's getting a board, but i can understand tancowny--so much hype on him, and for good reason.

Bummed Elissa doesn't have a full part. Plus what is with teams having a requisite kid like Piscopo? Teams seem to be getting a Termite division.
-
you guys dont realize that this is a heavy, full length video. as long or longer than new blood.
also rattray and hill better deserve extra praise for filming full new blood parts, osiris parts, in hills case a full zero promo part in 2006, and now full parts for strange world.

So waiting a few years to drop another video isn't really the best idea if you want to stay fresh in skaters minds. I read it on here all the time. If you don't put out a part a year you are written off and forgotten about. I don't feel this way but the masses do, hence why a site like the berrics is so damn successful. There is no attention span or memory for the masses, they can't be bothered with anticipation.
Relevancy is key in marketing skateboarding today, regardless of your perspective on who falls into that. Obviously people make a living off a name without doing much, but I see those days as being numbered shortly. Fuck I hate this mindset but I can see that without an extremely strict schedule for releasing coverage you become the next steve durante.
even still, isnt new blood a couple years old?
no, pretty sure new blood came out in 2005. which means strange world was four years in the making. i don't think that's rushing things. and i know the reason a lot of the top guys on the team don't have full epic parts is because they filmed parts for fallen (jamie thomas, chris cole, tommy sandoval).
see, that's my point, they don't care now since they're doing a video every year, instead of taking the time out to make strangeworld a really heavy video, they're just going to make smaller videos from now on.
Here's how I see it...
We have 15 plus riders. To wait until everyone is ready for the video to come out just doesn't make sense.
Here are the reasons why...
-There are riders the brand wants to introduce and turn pro and you need the video to make that happen, if you wait until everyone has their crap done you may be waiting 3- 4 years.
-Video sales are virtually non-existent in todays times, so spending 3-4 years of marketing dollars for something that is not going to make any money just doesn't make sense.
-Lastly, long videos in my opinion (which is the one that counts here) are boring and not as motivating as 30 min vids that leave you wanting more.
So, what I propose to do (with or without your approval) is to release 1/2 a video of a 15 man team every year for an affordable price. (under $10) You might be 1 of a dozen dudes that wants to wait several years to see a new video, but everyone else wants to see it tomorrow.
You could of course not watch it and wait til the next one comes out, then watch em both back to back and you'd get your wish.

they use the song in the intro too, it sounds so familiar and its frustrating trying to identify it based on that guitar part.

why can't other companies release videos for this price? so many more would sell it's not even funny.
-
They will.
Shops are sitting on some many videos that theres no way theyre gonna order a dozen if it retails for more than 20 bucks.
-
not necessarily. mindfield sold out at my shop and i went there the saturday after the friday it came out. not sure how many they had originally though.
-
There are certain releases that will sell, but for how long? Does that shop still sell mind field well?
Videos have no longevity anymore.My shop sold over 20 copies,I was stoked. But I'm nervous to re order.

i'm not sure, but you're pretty much right now that i think about it. they usually don't have more than two copies of each skate video, and when they're gone, rarely do i see them replaced.

i never would have bought slave if it would have been more than $20.00. and since jamie is doing pretty much the same thing with strange world i'm definitely picking it up too. i bet there's a way bigger profit margin to sell them for cheaper. you can either sell a few at an outrageous price or a bunch for a cheap price. there have been so many videos lately that weren't worth the money. and i bet the skating in strange world is probably a lot better than the skating in 25 dollar and up videos even though i haven't seen it yet.

for anyone who wants to buy this, unicron shipped off my copy today. i think the site still says presale but they've got it in stock for only $9.99.
