Movie-Vault.com Development Update #3

October 26, 2009 Posted by Tyler Cruz

It’s been another week-and-a-half since I last gave an update as to the status of Movie-Vault.com’s revamp development, so I thought I’d give you guys an update on what’s been going on.

Work has mostly focused on fixing small bugs and making small changes here and there, although there were a number of larger new features implemented.

It looks as though we might be able to relaunch on November 1st, but a lot of it will depend on how smooth the forum bridge and integration goes, as that could potentially be a bit difficult to implement.

Here’s another screencast video I made showing what new progress has been made on the site. This time I made notes beforehand in order to make the screencast a bit more organized, which also helped reduce the length of this video to 13 minutes (as opposed to 28 minutes for the last one):

As you can see, the site is really coming along now and looks just about to be complete, but there’s still a number of more things to be done. At its present stage, I’d say it’s around 90% complete.

I contacted one of my old contacts at one of the marketing firms that does work for film studios, and already have a little contest lined up for when the site launches next week. We’ll be giving out five official 2-disc soundtracks for the upcoming film by Focus Features, Pirate Radio, starring Philip Seymour Hoffman.

I haven’t decided what type of contest I’m going to run, but I’ll probably make it pretty simple such as some type of Twitter follow or re-tweet contest.

I had kept procrastinating and putting off this much-needed revamp to Movie-Vault.com for about 5-years now, so it feels good to have finally done it.

    Just figured I’d let people know that “Pirate Radio” is the name the British film “The Boat That Rocked” was released under in the US.

    And for once, America actually has the better title.

  7. Looks like it all is going well Tyler.
