With this blog we will write once in a while what we are up to at paranoiaparadise.

What no stylish T-Shirts yet? Yeah it takes ages to finally create one - the film is ready and we are about to produce a new one this year - well hopefully... Its gonna be a film about drugs - especially cocain, criminal guys and of course love. We are pretty excited about the project. But wait - we should first publish our latest film... Well gotta see. We got so many newsletter requests we really should start with our great concept - man its 2 years now and no other shop in this great world copied our concept - strange...
1rst may 2008:
So what is going on with our project? Well in fact the newest video is finished - it will be about skateboarding or better about "girlboarding (girl boarding)" ?!
I guess we are a bit lazy these days though...
If you want to be informed about updates or if you want to know, when we finally launch our T-Shirts Shop, just sign up for the newsletter...

This is Konrad, one of our team members, who films during a german demonstration, riscing his life. We might need this footage for a nice violation t-shirt one day;-)
So what about the stylish T-Shirts? Even though we are behind our schedule, we will probably go online with the T-Shirt-Shop in a couple of weeks. The problem we have now is, that we filmed our first two films with a P2 of Panasonic. The P2 does not record on tape, but directly to flash disc in *.mxf format. This format can't be read natively by Adobe Premiere, the application we use to post produce the films... Adobe just announced on
7th of september 2007, that they will support .mxf in a few weeks. So we will just wait for their update until the finish of our films. In the meantime we will go online with the shop with 2 t-shirts that we developed in the past weeks.

Dell sucks. I ordered a Computer on august 8th. Scheduled delivery date was august 20th. So far so good, but on august 19th they sent me an email, that my computer can't be delivered and therefore that the order was cancelled. Great no? What a f** place of loosers - Dell sucks so bad. Well I could arrange a new delivery date, which is now on september 20th. Since we arranged a reduction of 250 bucks, I think the deal is ok. But the bad thing is: The launch of paranoiaparadise.com will take a little more time;-) You guessed it, no?
6th august 2007:
We just finished our first paranoiaparadise t-shirt film production - it was a great weekend with all of you and I guess we all had lots of hard work and as a souvenir a nice sunburn. The film now processes the postproduction and will be published soon - hopefully still in september 2007.
Thanks to the team and all supporters - Jolanda Roskosch, Arkad Mandrisch, Konrad von Wittich, Maarten Hoogenboom, Timon Ruhemann, Léonie Fiorité, Michael Schehl, Michelle Gartner, Bernd Bericht, Nicole Schilling, Felix Kuschnick, die Peitsche and Alex

12th july 2007:
Sorry sorry sorry - we received quite a few let's say exactly 74 email-complaints asking where tf our announced shop is supposed to be;-) Well we are still producing our new film. It takes much longer than we thought. We don't really want to talk about the subject yet, but it will definately kick your brain. Mhmm I might blog the storyboard in a week or so...

We are now preparing our stopmotion / t-shirt productions for this summer. The plan is to produce at least 2 tshirt films in June 2007. The Shop will be released mid July. Lots of people ask us, why we take so long and when they can finally see the shop - we are really sorry, but our project is here to entertain people - our goal is not to sell as much t-Shirts as possible - our goal is to deliver the finest quality stop-motion-video art and stlyish tees that we want to wear. And this just takes time...
so long, Jane, Felix, Michelle, Léonie

We get lots of Emails asking when we finally start to sell our T-Shirts and what kind of clubwear we will offer. We have designed our own shapes and they will be produced in Turkey in the beginning of 2007. Each garment has been washed to look vintage. These styles will lend themselves well to vintage-effect printing techniques, and each piece will be unique and will have its own character. Well in the moment we also program our shop. This spring we will start to film great stop motion action. We already wrote some storybooks, but we need to build our own some special boxes for ourt tricks. We bought the great
Panasonic AG-HVX200.
This camera produces such an amazing quality - we could even show our films in cinemas. We are now programming the shop system. This will probably take until end of january 2007. Huuh you wonder why it takes so long? Well this is an artistic project, meant to make fun. Its developed and made in our spare time... CU, Michelle and Felix
