Apparently documentary films are often funded in chunks; they make part of it, put together a trailer to show around, and then get more money to finish it. I’m included in this part-way-through trailer for David Alvarado’s slick-looking new film on longevity:
Though the trailer is 2D, much of it was actually filmed in 3D, including a wide ranging lunch discussion with myself and my GMU colleagues. Hope that makes it into a final version.
I loved the trailer.
A tiny nitpick. I don't know why but I feel that keeping the token of the pact for immortality with cult of the frozen head might be best kept hidden until . It looks a bit odd until its explained at 3:11.
I would use terms like postmortal or ageless instead of immortal. I think post-mortal is commonly used in hard-SF to describe people who have live extension. Any other suggestions?
BTW, the trailer has a lot of Greg Benford in it. Presumably, others such as Aubrey appear in the full movie.
