WT Video

I just noticed that the WT video on CP's site is now longer and shows much more than the original one did.  I'm not sure when it changed, but somewhere along the line, it did.

Thanks for the update! It looks similar to the video that was posted on News Net 5 some time ago, and I was wondering when Cedar Point was going to update the one on their site. I just wish Cedar Point would figure out that Quick Time is the way to go...

Oh look, QuickTime clips! What fabulously clean encoding. The 12.8 MB "high" clip sure looks nice.

WT has had about 5 different viedos that i have seen. Just thought i would let you know

In my internet days, the QuickTime format of that video is one of the clearest and cleanest things I have ever saw. It is more than worth the download.

For some reason, I'm only getting the sound and not the video. Anyone care to help?

Turn up your speakers. ;) Sorry couldn't resist.

What fabulous encoding! That looks as good as the fabulous Badnitrus encoding. ;)

By chance you know who did the encoding Jeff? ;)

Is Jeff the secret webmaster for cedarpoint.com?  ;)
-----------------

That's odd because like 2 days ago I mentioned to someone either here or Coasterbuzz that Badnitrus had done the animation for a couple parks. I also said that they werepossibly going to do one for Cedar Point...just a little freaky! :)

Badnitrus didn't do the animation, but I did their video compression. I think the CP video is an Intraxx production (thus the plastic dummies in the seats).

I think they need to give Badnitrus a go at their animations...do you think that CP has a contract for so many animations by Intraxx? Or would that be as false as the 3 B&M deal?

There is no contract. Intraxx does average work, if you ask me, and charges more than they deserve. Look at the crap they put out for Nitro. That was absolutely terrible, and word on the street is that they got five figures for it.
