This film is an impression of the fist commercial handling of the container vessel YM Portland at the Euromax Terminal, Rotterdam Maasvlakte, the 22th of June 2008.
The EMX terminal has reached now the 1st capacity stage for 2.500.000 TEU's annual. EMX is designed for full automated container operation. (except the special cargo) A unique document special dedicated to all the people involved.

Hans,

Thanks an impressive system. You've got some good shots of the machines and how they handle stuff as well as the operations/monitoring side of things. I can appreciate the time and effort you've spent getting all those shots and angles.

I'm not sure what the intent of this video is. This would make a good documentary but I feel it lacks a lot from that perspective. Such as stating the problem or how it has been done in the past and the costs and then the solution, the time it took, the cost it took to develop and implement and then the cost and time savings etc. Of course, they'd have to pay you for it for you to have to go to that extent.

On the editing side, I thought it was okay. There were lots of times I'd like to have seen the action completed rather than cut to a different scene just because the music beat warranted a change :).

Hi Shiv,
You know I appreciate your comments. Thanks for that. As I wrote it is mentioned as a operations illustrating document and the people involved can see and show their results already. I agree that a documentary should give more data but that was not the intention now. If than I need a good voice over. May be an good idea for later than I ask you..!!!
For the editing part it's always difficult to chose the best format. After seeing it a few times I think I will make a few changes. Just as Shanghai and Unloading a litlle shorter.

Hi Hans,

I guess I didn't understand what you meant when you wrote "document special". I assumed you meant documentary :).

Hi Shiv,
That s more Dutch language....
One question, a lot of people asking me how to proceed for downloading videos.
As I understand it was possible in the past but currently not any more.
I guess that they have to register ??
