now teasing website...and on the website would be a countdown to GDC

If there was a trailer linked to the website somehow, I'd think it would be a countdown to GDC....

That says he "pitched" an eight-minute trailer to VisualWorks, that means he suggested it as an idea. And then he immediately says that VisualWorks turned down his idea by saying "you're off your trolley".

Although he does say there's about a minute of extra footage which never made the final version that we saw.

He said "the final trailer is about four minutes and ten seconds". :confused:

The trailer we got is however long it is, but it's not four minutes.

They captured about 4 minutes of "raw footage" of each scene from different angles, and then they cut it up to properly capture the emotion they wanted.

That extra minute just has extra animation and camera angles from the scenes which made it into the trailer.

And then a minute was taken out of it to give us the three-minute trailer we've all seen. I think he used the word "final" in reference to the trailer that was made after his first eight-minute trailer idea was turned down.

It's a possibility, don't hold your breath, though.

I swear on my own life that, when I first saw his "delivered" tweet posted here earlier, I was genuinely going to make a joke post about the site just being delivered to Crystal's offices.

Man, I missed out on one hell of an opportunity. I could've been laughing my arse off right now :(
