Hahahah.. actually no.. whilst the scene was shot in a NZ goth venue and a lot of the people in the scene are goths... this is not how most of them dress/makeup.
The makeup artists were told to "go for the stereotypical goth look that everyone would recognise", and "more makeup!"
A lot of the poor buggers were sitting there saying things like "You want to make me look like the crow? Can I reconsider being in this?";)
Whatever made you think this? Most of the people who worked on the movie have jobs.. most of us 9-5... hence many days of bleary eyedness at work after shoots from when work finished till 3-4 am the next morning.
Besides... it's not like it cost all that much.;)
The webpage/files are being hosted by myself and a few friends and quite frankly BitTorrent is the _only_ way we could have survived this.
The US http mirror melted down last night under the first slashdot posting (load of 60) But then it was only a little baby box anyway. The fall of this load onto the UK one pretty much killed that too. So we regrouped, replanned and spread things out a bit better. This time round the http is doing better...
However the BT's have been going pretty much solidly since the initial slashdotting and after this second one we went from roughly 200 simultaneous DLs to currently about 1700 according to the main reflector.
This kind of load would have melted _all_ our mirrors. So say what you like about BT but it sure does kick the ass of stuff that sucks for this kind of distribution. Oh and to the 505 or so people who are staying online with it full shared. Thanks to you all you've helped us make this a successfull slashdot survival.
As to the other http mirror admins (you know who you are) thanks heaps for your support!
Slashdot Mirror
And at the same time for no added cost screws the server for other people. ;)
*sigh*
People wonder why server admins fear a slashdotting.
