can someone please explain this video to me. I don't get it at all.
Well, there's really no explaining the content (it's a dream, right) but the reason for the video is this:

Former Lowe, New York ECD John Hobbs has made his solo directorial debut with "Crownfish," a surreal 2:15 piece of branded content from Samsung and Digitas, New York.

The short, which promotes Samsung's NV24HD camera, features a maiden and a penguin in a raft on a quest for a sequined fish—the maiden, the raft and the penguin being part of a set of conditions the three filmmakers were tasked with including. Hobbs is joined by directors Manfred Reiff and Eduaro Bono who also directed films for the project, viewable at celypribeh.cz. The campaign begins its roll-out in the Czech Republic but is slated for Europe and the U.S. as well.

"Crownfish," along with other digital-only content, will be screened at Cannes this year during Digitas' Film Pred-I-tors presentation.

hmm. so how is this supposed to make someone want to buy an HD Camera? I guess the quality would be a lot better if it were viewed in HD, but still...
Since it's screening at Cannes (at the International Ad Festival) and not on general television, the intent is probably to demonstrate to agency creatives that shooting digital HD is economical (even for fluff) and approaching film quality.

So I missed all the fun last night and had a couple of drinks instead, as my headache can testify to.

After reading a few pages here and there am I right in summing it up as, shop still sucks bigtime and Europeans now have to pay almost three times the price of the print itself just for shipping?

so we learned from this drop that 15 minutes in obey time means the print will drop on time and if we dont hear anything that means it will drop hours late

Has anyone not recieved shipping conf. yet? Im wondering if I should be worried? Do they usually ship based on order number or location. I know I had a low order number but I live on east coast. I assume they ship the Cali orders first or is that wrong?
