Sailing the Star of India

I LOVED this video and I know nothing about sailing or this type of sport, but now I want to try it! Sign me up!
Many of the shots were beautiful, the editing was fantastic, and the music cues were right on. GL all the way. Good luck!

Joe,

What a pleasure to watch! It's well photographed, it has great pacing and structure, and best of all the interviews are insightful and lively. I think the only comment that was missing was the idea that the underlying technology that drives a square-rigger is ironically modern in that it's non-polluting and "sustainable."

Excellent work!

GL for sure, you will be going on TV with this, everything a pod should be. Did you score it? You rarely see feature quality track work on CTV. Lord, what a lot of production value in this. Well done, Keep Podding! if you get a chance, comce support

A very arrrrrrticulate pod. :)

Seriously though, a fascinating pod about a subject I didn't know much about, very well shot, clear crisp audio, and very engaging interviews. Good music as well, always nice to see original music on a pod. A real pro production all around . Man, you must have had 30 release forms to get signed after you were done! Good thing you had 3 Medeiros family members to help out. Greenlight says ayyyyye.

Sorry I couldn't resist at least two pirate jokes.

I toured this ship last year while I was in San Diego and being a serious history buff wondered what it would be like to set sail in it. Well, now I have an idea. This is a great pod. Personally I think it could be cut shorter as there are a lot of interviews, but that will be a decision for Current to make when it airs on TV. This pod is definitely headed for the tube at some point. GL and once again congrats on a well crafted idea.

I may be a landlubber but I love the idea of sailing and think you capture some of the romance of the sea in this piece. Would love to see it on air.

Mr Ed. you've done it again. Wouldn't Rick be jealous? Great photography, it feels like we're on the high seas. The volunteers are interesting and enthusiastic, and it shows. Great pacing and flow.
Makes me want to man the halyards and keep me eye on the horizon A real Pearl.

Mr. Ed

nice work. let's get this on the air!

Very cool! Having lived in San Diego it's great to see a wonderful production from one of my favorite cities. GL!

Nice piece, well shot. I've been a few tall ships, and they're all gorgeous. You really captured the beauty and majesty of what a boat like this can really be. Beautiful work.

These modern day sailors have great spirits. We are all threads interwoven into the fabric of life.

AWESOME!!! Great job teaching me about something new. Beautifully filmed and edited.

Great story telliing.

Arrr, me thinks this be a fine film.

Beautiful ship! Fun and interesting to watch.
Thanks...

omg! i love sailboats!

This is really wonderful. I've listened to all the Master and Commander series on audiobooks, and I hope that one day I'll sail on one of these ships. Before the mast, of course!

For a reader of Patrick O'Brian's sea novels, this is really a treat. The shots of the mast are especially enjoyable.

Great pod. Very well shot and edited. Total professional polish. It looks like you did a who lot of work putting it together. Well worth my GL and definately TV quality.

Congradulations on your high ranking status.

I thought this was well done, Makes me want to go and become a crew member and sail with them. I bet this is really something else when you have all the sails blowing in the wind.

Like Plisko said, definately TV quality. GL

This was a cool little documentury.

A tightly-woven, compelling piece. Bravo!

Excellent piece! You obviously have a passion for sailing and it shows in the quality of the short. Great job.

You deserve the greenlight
thank you, very enjoyable

cool perspective

Life is a grand adventure! Excellent directing, filming, sound and editing. This piece has it all going for it. I look forward to seeing this one on TV.

Top Class. Enjoyed every minute

The story and interviews are great. The camera motion gave me that real feeling of being at sea and feeling seasick. Many of the non-interview scenes flashed by so fast I don't I remember what I saw.

What a great show! This is a very nice tribute to the Star and her crew...

Great stuff!
Good stories, music, and of course, the Ding-Ding!
Three cheers for crew and producer.

The SD Maritime Museum is supported by fantastic staff and volunteers that keep alive the art of sailing these vessels as well as restoring and maintaining the ships themselves...the video captures the experience of being part of this diverse and enthusiastic crew! Of the thousands of immigrant ships that participated in the great European migrations of a hundred years ago, the Star is the only one that still sails; this IS living history!

Good pod. Cool topic. Makes me miss SD!!! Green light from me.

why is this not eligible for tv... this is a gread pod.

someone please explain. .
