When will production start? I can't wait!

I'll be the weekly or seasonal guest (part-time cast member). d(^,^)b

well put photeus, we do need a stupid character tho... stupid necro? that MIGHT work... but it would be pushing it, which isnt necearaly a bad thing tho. I spoke with photeus on the matter via IM and wevwe come up with some good ideas.
here is our conversation in full

RaBiD HaMsTeR X: hey, my lil bro said u wanted me?
Brianisttoll: Oh yeah, you're working with...lemme check
Brianisttoll: Animo, Req and Tur713 on the movie thing right?
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: indeed
Brianisttoll: Well, since you're one of the heads of the project, I was just wanting to express my interest in helping in some way in it directly to you
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: ok, wats ur GWG sn?
Brianisttoll: Photeus Prime, which is my primary. And as I stated there, I have no qualms about starting a new character, or which character I play.
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: ok, thats good to know
Brianisttoll: Just felt it might be a bit more effective to get a hold of one of the four guys in charge more directly, since you've got 10 or so people wanting to help otherwise.
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: i like the heroic warrior idea, but then we still need a dimwitted character
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: a necro?
Brianisttoll: Could be. Dull enough to sacrifice to death?
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: lol
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: "damnit you gotta leave some health to LIVE OFF OF
Brianisttoll: So often that people get tired of saying 'Necro down!'
Brianisttoll: Somewhat dull witted, suicidal necromancer
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: lol
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: sounds fun
Brianisttoll: That'd give plenty of reason for that monk to hate him.
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: LMBFAO
Brianisttoll: Mumbling about how he's aways resurrecting his ass and saving everyone else's pathetic lives
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: lol
Brianisttoll: Then maybe eventually finding a good use for the necro with vengence.
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: lol
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: then while monk is in a rant he gets pwned by some charr or something
Brianisttoll: I got the idea...as rediculous as it may be, that if you have a ranger character, his voice should always be muffled, except when in town.
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: lol you know the puma warthog joke in RvB?
Brianisttoll: Unfortunately, I've only seen one Red vs Blue video
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: well, one of the characters says that the warthog looks like a puma, and i was thinking that the ranger could have a warthog as a pet, but someone thinks its a puma (melandrus stalker)
Brianisttoll: Haha, that's probably a really good tribute idea, and seems kinda out of the ordinary...don't see many Rangers with pig pets.
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: ya
Brianisttoll: I just think it'd be funny to dramatically zoom in on the Ranger as he's scouting and for him to yell "Murrrffffllleelll!!"
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: murfle?
Brianisttoll: Well, cause his voice is muffled by the mask they always wear
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: well, ya, but it has to resemble what their tring to say
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: not sure what merflel translates into
Brianisttoll: Yeah, I know. Just trying to move the image, that's all
Brianisttoll: Mergoyle?
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: maybe
Brianisttoll: I dunno. I've got some random ideas, but I promise not all of them are good.
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: lol
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: FYI im gonna post this conversation onn GWG for all to see
Brianisttoll: Haha
Brianisttoll: Go for it man.
Brianisttoll: Well, I can only be around about 5 more minutes, so I'll give a few other quick ideas.
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: ok shoot
Brianisttoll: Well, not really an idea I guess, but has anyone thought of secondaries for the characters in mind?
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: they arent too important, cuz they can be changed
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: and only affect the skills
Brianisttoll: Hrm....well if the characters are going to get played from Pre-searing, to make the films...they might be important.
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: well, i dont think that we will be in PS tooo long
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: not long enuff to amke a difference
Brianisttoll: For 'roleplaying' in the movie. Or at very least to just be the most common primary and secondaries around.
Brianisttoll: Ah alright.
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: dude, wewr gonna have to have voice recordings of ppl sayg WTS FIERY DRAGON SWORD PM W/ PRICE
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: to put in bacground
Brianisttoll: Oh I haven't even thought of that.
Brianisttoll: That's good.
Brianisttoll: One of the characters possibly complaining about hearing all kinds of voices once they get to Ascalon City
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: lol
Brianisttoll: Then the others saying, turn off 'trade' and 'local' man.
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: i think the story should start in like foibles fair or some small town area
Brianisttoll: Perhaps the fishing villiage that isn't really a town in Pre?
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: there are lots of towns that arent TOWNS in pre that we can use skillz in and stuff
Brianisttoll: That's true, like that little Trader convoy up near Barradin's
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: ya
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: and the place near the town that becomes sardelac sanitarium
Brianisttoll: Also, maybe for the elementalist character, when he finally gets Obsidian flame, he specs to all Earth and nukes his mana with exhaustion, and wonders if the gods 'nerfed' Obsidian flame.
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: lol
Brianisttoll: Yeah, the little lake town
Brianisttoll: Oh, and I think it's a must to have a braggart character. I was with this really annoying guy on a run that was bragging about things other people do.
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: ya, someone suggested a mesmer like that
Brianisttoll: Like having 15k Glads and Fissure helm. A stance shield. Being able to do Droknar's runs.
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: OOH there should be a few rival characters
Brianisttoll: It was like he was telling me he makes sandwiches, I was like "And so does everyone else"
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: not like teams in RvB, just ppl who dont like each other
Brianisttoll: Perhaps a nice female monk that argues constantly with the male monk in later areas?
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: fun
Brianisttoll: While everyone dies
RaBiD HaMsTeR X: lol
Brianisttoll: Maybe even one character is completely competent and usually carries the rest
Brianisttoll: Ok, I gotta run to work. Catch me on here again and we can bounce more ideas. And hello to the GW forum.
Brianisttoll is away at 9:30:18 PM.

Lady Messana · Sep 18, 2005, 05:25 AM // 05:25

Hi again,

I would really like to be involved in this project in some way, I am not very good with voices, but i am from australia so an accent might become interesting.

I really love necros and was thinking of the possibility of an evil character (always need a bad guy

). Maybee if he is hanging around in the background when the mains are in the big towns. Hes always just in the background watching, untill he becomes a bigger part post-sear. Anyways just a thought.

I do have vent and FRAPS and have been trying to download AIM but it always fails at 80%

. My IGN is: Lady Messanna, I do have a slot open to create another pre sear if needed for this idea or for any other reason. PLZ let me help out

Tur713 · Sep 18, 2005, 07:10 AM // 07:10

Yes, I, like the idea of the Warrior being more "Superhero-esque," but he can still be somewhat dumb and a general Leeroy Jenkins. (I can provide a voice, I had a ten minute script I wrote for speech that required it)

I'm also liking the rival party (possibly rival guild later? hmm?) I imagine we could then use my presear Ranger because they seem like they could act like real asses.

I'm gonna just start writing, okay? I'll run it by the leaders via PM when I have it.

Oh, and Messana, I'll try to include you in some way. The accent very well could become interesting. There could be a couple of different parties they run into...hmm...

Can anybody get us a website when we need one? That'll be helpful later, but not a priority.

Manderlock · Sep 18, 2005, 08:10 AM // 08:10

If you need another voice actor PM me. I am fairly experienced.

Sai of Winter · Sep 18, 2005, 08:34 AM // 08:34

Should we start making a list for people who want to join the series and what role they want to play?

Ex Animo · Sep 18, 2005, 01:00 PM // 13:00

mmm , another thing that might be hard , is for us to meet , same place same time , time diferences , etc.
i think we need the most possible camara mans we can get , the more the best . its never too much footage , the more the better

the same for ideas for dialoges and plots

The God Of Metal · Sep 18, 2005, 02:51 PM // 14:51

If you guys want to get ahold of me for anything my AIM sn is XSantaBobX

Photeus · Sep 18, 2005, 04:26 PM // 16:26

I have to say, we need to have a well-defined set of characters and/or possible characters so that we can help with script or plotlines.

TwilightOblivion · Sep 18, 2005, 05:21 PM // 17:21

Heres the list of possible character ideas we have come up with. Dumb warrior, heroic/clumsy warrior, druggie/psychotic necro, intelligent main Ele, angry monk, clueless/sexfiend ranger, stuckup mesmer.

heres my idea for how to start it: Mr. Ele is going out for a stroll whne he sees Mr. warrior getting attacked by some creatures. he quickly comes to the warriors aid and saves his life. the warrior confesses that hes a coward and was sent out to try and overcome his cowardice by retriving some stolen goods. he also says he doesnt want to go back to ascalon w/o them. the ele feeling sorry for him decides to help him on his quest.

Good, good, I like the idea, maybe the Warrior to swear himself eternaly in the Ele's debt. Okay! Now I can really get down to writing!

EDIT: I think whoever's the body actors for the characters ought to get together on vent or something in order to get proper timing. (even if they don't do the voices in the final production)

I also realized that we may have problems with making them look like they're talking other than just adding emotes. If anyone can think of something to fix this, speak up.

Anyway, I'm gonna start writing. As I said before I'm gonna run it by the rest of the team leaders first. After the writing process, we'll hold auditions for the characters body and voice actors. This is when all that applied for acting will get their chance to be in the vids.

Ull Suffer · Sep 18, 2005, 08:57 PM // 20:57

lol ive seen almost all of the red vs. blue series. whisper me in game ^.^

Sai of Winter · Sep 18, 2005, 10:09 PM // 22:09

Remember if you need a part-time cast member aka seasonal guest, send me a PM when you need me. I've already explained what my character is like. I might come up with more ideas.

TwilightOblivion · Sep 18, 2005, 11:03 PM // 23:03

well, as an idea to fix the talking proble, we could just add subtitles to it like the cutscenes do. i think we might have to run a poll to see what people want.

Tur713 · Sep 18, 2005, 11:29 PM // 23:29

Yeah, I thought about it more. The whole thing'll pretty much like a large cut-scene (which have the same amount of mouth movement as we will) so we'll be just fine.

TwilightOblivion · Sep 19, 2005, 01:31 AM // 01:31

well, ya because cutscenes are just watching things in the game occour but with a different camera angle. but seriously, all of the head people need to post an AIM address so we dont need to keep using this forum. again, mine is Rabid Hamster X

kg_lildude1 · Sep 19, 2005, 05:41 AM // 05:41

i dont use aim, i did, but i dont anymore, i find the program repulsive and the company that produces it as well

go msn all the way!

neoteo · Sep 19, 2005, 06:32 AM // 06:32

mmm , ok i just want to say , my old account is back

... so ill be posting from this one now ...

Drago Solaris · Sep 19, 2005, 09:19 AM // 09:19

yea msn way better

i wanna be the ranger plzzzzzz

Lady Messana · Sep 19, 2005, 01:16 PM // 13:16

Yeah i can actually download MSN whereas i cant download AIM

As to the talking problem i was wondering if when in 1st person view and look up or down does your head move?

If it does then we could do it similar to RvB and just have heads moving for speach. Just a thought.

Also those that havent yet seen RvB do so it is the funniest thing ever

Im not sure if im alowed to post other peoples websites here so i wont but if you think about it the web address is easier to figure out
