I’ve been waiting for the review of FIREPROOF on Bluray.com for a few weeks since they had previously released the Facing the Giants one. I’m pleased to report the news is good, Fireproof does well on Bluray. For those of you who don’t know, Fireproof was shot on the Varicam and tethered to a MacPro computer (my buddy Bill Ebel was on-site editor and ingested the feed as shooting happened). It was captured from the HD-SDI source of the Varicam to Apple Prorez 422, a new codec at the time. From what I heard, Apple caught wind of them planning on this and Fireproof became a bit of a guinea pig to see how the codec would do. The Varicam is by chip-size and resolution, a 720p camera so there was an up-rez done to the footage on ingesting…but I’m pleased to announce the 1080 image of Fireproof seems to deliver just great!
The biggest surprise (and biggest relief in my opinion) is that the special features come in 1080p as well. The HVX200 was used on set and offset as the primary behind the scenes camera, including the interviews from what I understand. Shot in 1080p, I’m pleased to see the extras delivered this way. Often some Bluray’s get slapped with a SD source for the Behind the Scenes, but not here. Even the bloopers are in HD! 
Thanks to Sony for releasing such a high quality release. I’m looking forward to enjoying Fireproof in the greatest possible quality when it comes out one week from today!

If you check out the-numbers.com you find lots of sales information for DVDs and box office information. I’ve kept my eye on Fireproof for months and saw the number of units sold rise again and again. These numbers are estimated and there’s no way this is 100% accurate but at least according to their website, FIREPROOF is the #24 on the list of top selling DVD’s so far this year. 1.8 Million units which is bound to be more if you included Christian book stores and a bunch of other avenues. The film is right next to films like Best Picture Winner Slumdog Millionaire and films like Watchmen. Congratulations to Sherwood on this achievement!
A new trailer has been posted around the internet for our new film Standing Firm. There are countless viewing options available. Be sure to share it!

Facing the Giants is finally available on Blu-ray and the review from Bluray.com is surprisingly good. Overall it seems like a decent Blu-ray disc that I’ll be sure to add to the collection. I’m interested in seeing how the Varicam 720p source to film, then to Blu-ray look on my 50in Plasma. Fireproof was recorded with the Varicam as well but tethered to a MacPro in-jesting the footage at 1080p Apple Prorez so the film should look a lot better in regards to its image quality.
