Video File

As far as we can currently tell, every puzzle box package contains the same video. The wiki is hosting a mp4 (iPod/h.264 video format) transcode of this video at http://vanishingpointwiki.com/media/vanishingpoint.mp4 but we would really like to get our hands on the original *.wmv file.

Transcript

Konamouse at Unfiction has posted the following transcript<ref>http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=290823#290823</ref>:

Absolutely not. That wasn’t our deal. Our deal was I would give away extraordinary prizes to exceptional people. And you would be happy.

Cap-01.jpg

Yup, I know it’s expensive, but these people are way ahead of the curve.

Cap-02.jpg

If you want to interest them, your prizes better be worth their while.

Cap-03.jpg

No I can’t come to the office to explain. I can’t. I’ve gotta catch a plane, the 8th is coming fast.

Cap-04.jpg

Right, you’ll be glad you wrote the check.

Cap-05.jpg

I promise you, it will be *timeless.*

Yeah, I know some of the puzzles ridiculously hard. Believe me, the people you are looking for...can handle it.

Cap-06.jpg

The real trick is, can they solve them in time?

If they need help, they can always search for the Vanishing Point tag.

Cap-07.jpg

Sigh. The Vanishing Point? It’s where things disappear. Remember?

Cap-08.jpg

No no no, come on, I’m not just doing it for the trip to Vegas.

Cap-09.jpg

We’re going to make someone famous around the world.

Cap-10.jpg

Although, I will say, for a girl with a photographic memory, Vegas is a very profitable city.

Cap-11.jpg

Look, you hired me to pull off a stunt that no one could possibly do. The stage is set, the time is right, and I haven’t forgotten a thing.

Cap-12.jpg

I have to get off the phone now. Yes I do. Time for me to vanish. It’s too late to back out now. We’ve started, there’s no turning back.

Time Codes

From a summary post by Zyphrax at Neowin Forums<ref>http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=523893&view=findpost&p=588168154</ref>:

[00:19] She is packing white gloves, a suit and a high hat (magician costume?)
[00:32] There is a guy at the right side (probably a cameraman slipup)
[00:35] On the left is the map of the Bellagio.
The center sidewalk in front of the fountains has been marked with pen
[00:36] On the right is the Main welcome text of the Japanese Bellagio website
[00:43] She puts 1 watch in her pocket and 4 watches and a small red dart in a box
[00:59] The drawings look like watches and describe the Laplace Transform technique, which is related to Euler (rotated pic)
[01:12] The colored items are chocolates of the hotel she's staying in
[01:17] The black book that she is reading on the bed is: The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire - Vol 2 by Edward Gibbon

Interesting Details

The website is certainly [the Japanese version of the Bellagio website]. Compare the above movie thumbnail to this screen capture of the site:
