Do you think it could be Summer Glau's screentest?

Where did the "Session 416" video come from?

It was first posted on the IFILM website on August 16, although that site claims the video was found on an unspecified P2P file-sharing network. There is some dispute over whether or not that it the case, as no other mention has yet been found indicating the video came from those networks. It's possible that whoever tipped IFILM to the video told them they found it on such a network even if they did not, in order to increase the mystique surrounding the clip.

What is the "Session 416" video?

At this point, it is mainly believed to be a piece of viral marketing for Serenity, the major motion picture follow-up to the acclaimed (and short-lived) Joss Whedon television series, Firefly.

As of the August 23 release of "Session 1 Excerpt" it is confirmed that this is viral marketing for the movie Serenity.

As of the August 23 release of "Session 1 Exceprt" it is unquestionable that this is official marketing for the movie, in some fashion, given that Summer Glau and Joss Whedon are directly involved.

A fan with connections at Universal has reported that the studio denies being involved in the production of the "Session 416" video. At this stage, it may be prudent to consider that this denial could be technically correct if it was the product of some marketing firm to whom the task had been outsources, and also to keep in mind that in order to maintain the mystique necessary to generate buzz about the video, the studio would have to deny being responsible.
