Man, it's been really boring on these forums the past few months. Were Frictional Games not at E3 to show off any new gameplay? I feel like it's been forever since we've seen actual gameplay. I think the last gameplay we saw was that "alpha" demo that was sent to some companies to review back in Spring?

Until 2015:

For those who enjoyed the live action teasers and are looking forward to the next one, "Depth": the shooting has already begun and the film should be released on the 15th of December 2014 (according to IMDb).

One of the actresses, Wonder Russell, has posted a photo on Twitter where it's possible to read a small but interesting excerpt of the script:

Also, the actors have been practicing some fight moves at a stunt school, so there will be blood:

And death...
Spoiler below!

I'm really curious to see the final result. Big Grin I think "Depth" will be longer than the previous two teasers and will reveal much more information about SOMA's story.

Of course it will be. It's been called multiple times a "feature film". Also note the page number on one of the photos you linked, it's 85 if I'm not mistaken.

Yeah, "feature film"! I didn't really pay attention to that, but now that you mention it I realise that I've read some information about "Depth" before where that designation was used, haha... *facepalm*
The page number looks like 85 to me too.

I did a quick google search and the average film script is 90-120 pages and usually 120 page scripts usually translate into 90 minute film so the new live action teaser might be 30 or 45 minutes? It depends on the full cut of the film.

Not sure how you came up with 30 or 45 minutes. If a 120 page script translates to 90 minutes film, 85 pages correspond to around 60 minutes film. And 85 pages is just a lower bound as we don't know the total number of pages.

I said "usually" and also it really depends on much they used the script or the final cut of the teaser. They could shorten it down or cut some footage but no-one knows that going happen but only film-makers themselves but we just have to wait and see.

Source?

Besides, you can't accurately estimate the duration of the film based on the number of pages of the script.
