Full Tosses & Broken Bails: Henry V Plea!?
Hi!
Essentially this is a sort of all-in request for anyone that might have sat through the Hollow Crown: Henry V, Henry V at the Globe and/or Branagh’s version of Henry V.
That’s a lot of Henry.
And a lot of time spent on it.
At the moment I’m writing an essay on the perceptions of Henry V…
Today, at about 11:30 local time, Project Wendy was delivered to the Public Eye office in London.
Some relevant facts: we received a total of over 1400 photo submissions and 50 artwork entries. The book itself is a 12” X 12” hardcover with 326 pages, weighing just over 5 pounds. The video running time is just over 20 minutes, and contains a bonus special feature (“The Making of Project Wendy”) of about 10 minutes.
Here is a link to a compressed PDF download for the Project Wendy book. Note the file size is still about 90 MB. I am also planning an enhanced version for iPad, which will be made available once I am back in the States. The video will be uploaded to YouTube within the next few days - I will forward that link once available.
Please note that although I tried to keep all the photos about the same size, in many cases the lower resolution of some of the submssions made it necessary to reduce them somewhat in order to maximize print quality. Also bear in mind that we made every attempt to ensure that everyone’s photos were included - but we are only human, so I expect there will be some errors or inadvertent omissions. I am very sorry if anyone is disappointed with the outcome.
I hope you enjoy the finished product. This truly was a labor of love - for you! For all of us!
