'Dreaming Nevada' Headed to HD DVD this October

Indie distributor The Picture Company has announced 'Dreaming Nevada,' the second release in its 'American Journey' series, for HD DVD release this fall.

Shot in High Definition in 2004 (and originally released on Standard DVD), 'American Journey: Volume 2 - Dreaming Nevada' is the latest in a growing number of indie next-gen releases targeted at early adopters starved for high-def eye candy. A scenic tour of Southern Nevada, the press materials promise the disc will "transport the viewer into a world of spectacular vistas of extraordinary beauty."

Due in stores October 2, 'Dreaming Nevada' will make its HD DVD debut in 1080i/VC-1 video and Dolby Digital 5.1 surround audio. Bonus features will include two different musical selections to choose from, a bonus clip including additional footage of Las Vegas, a "Map Movie" mode juxtaposing animated maps with clips, and an animated still gallery.

Retail price is set to be $19.98.

'Dreaming Nevada' follows The Picture Company's first foray into HD DVD, 'American Journey: Volume 1 - Dreaming Arizona,' which hit high-def July 24.
