Finally we got to see the result of our work on getting a release party together for our class site. As the head of event, I must say that I am happy with the result and that we where able to release the site at an club as awesome as Movida. The event went on with lots of changes in the schedule, but I think the changes where handled nicely by Mathias and the others involved. It was fun to finally be rewarded for all the work during this module and to get in contact with the industry. I know that I am greatfull for the contacts I got at the party.
Thank you, both guests and fellow class mates, for a rememberable event.

We’re in london! i’m sitting in my hotel room typing my last blog entry for the making of visual crooks. feels great. the last few days have been the most stressful in my life. we got the webhost for the site on thursday last week, a couple of hours before our campaign site went live. it was insane stress levels but we pulled through and delivered! the pre-site was a huge success, it was like our own little 5 day big brother show, in 3 days we had around 300 members in the facebook group for the campaign site and it steadily increased, they wrote about us in BLT (Blekinge läns tidning) http://www.blt.se/nyheter/karlskrona/kronohaktet-ater-i-bruk(1213733).gm#articleimage-popup the morning paper in Blekinge. we were featured on several forums and blogs and even on an internet radio at www.hamsterpaj.net. everything is looking good and now i’m writing my speech for tomorrow night and markus from design is next to me rendering a instructional video i will be speaking next to during the release. a bit nervous but i think it will be fine. i hope. 
now the official Visual Crooks group is released on facebook, go join! right, see everyone at the release tomorrow, i’m going to go have a pint of cold, nice british ale!

We have gotten a couple of sponsors! And we will be featured in Computer Arts and Cap & Designs magazines, things are looking good! We’re still working on getting a webhost but i’m sure we will manage to get one in time. We have contacted a few different ones. Energy is starting to flow back in the groups again as things are starting to get ticked off the to-do lists. I feel confident now that this project is on time again, tickets to london and a hotel is booked now, flying out on the morning of the 18th of March. Oh and we got one of the coolest places in London as our venue! Movida club. check it out at www.movida-london.com looks like an awesome place. next time i write here will be the day before the release of the site while i’m in london. seeya until then.

We are working hard in the event group, and it’s kind of hectic right now. We have found a venue in London which is looking good, now we just have to get that positive answer we all want.
Next post will be more fulfilling, but right now we are all under alot of pressure and i dont have too much time for this.
10-4 over.

Financial crisis is the word of the year! it is extremely hard to find sponsors for a project like this and i’m starting to get really really worried about the planned release party in london. we have already sent out press messages saying we will have it in london but it’s looking really dark right now… still trying though and i’m certain we WILL make this happen. if we want it bad enough we will get it done. that’s all for me right now. off to make more phone calls…
