    Everything goes somewhere when you focus, Sanfam [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    I think this marks my official return to the community. Yay for me.

    Yeah, but around here focusing tends to be difficult.

    So, who's writing the story? That's the obvious first step. Actually, deciding how it will be done will probably be first, then story.

    I am a pretty good writer (according to me, anyways).

    The first step is getting people to commit. Then comes the writing, then storyboarding, then voice recording, then animation, then rendering, then editing, then sound and music. Also needing to be done, of course, is mesh creation, but that can happen concurrently while everything up until animation is being done.

    I can do some writing, too. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]
  • I'm not artistically talented but I could lend my voice and CPU time (I have a 1.8 P4 w/800+ Meg of ram at your disposal.... [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img] )

    This sounds like an excellent plan.... [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    I can do 2d characters if we go for Titan AE route. I havn't drawn any B5 characters yet, but see the above picture of some Jedi for a sample.

    Hi all!

    I am happy to let my Technoamge shuttle and technomage probe meshes be used in the film. I am half way through a V2 of the shuttle - only those blasted engine intakes to go!

    If you would like me to bump it to the top of my list of meshes, e-mail me on python859@yahoo.com and tell me since the odds of me checking this thread again are pretty slim!

    And it's Tea, not coffee.
    That black stuff tastes terrible. If I need a caffeine rush, I'll get a bottle of Bawls

    I also just realized I have a great little system here at school, as well.

    Dual Athlon MP 1700s with 1gb of DDR2400 memory and some 80 gb of HD space.

    Might be useful, no? Right now, it's cranking out some 30 SETI units per day.

    Guess I'll have to read the Technomage books, but I don't mind helping with the writing, or adding vocal tallents...

    I think that having the screen play / story boards on-line would be a good idea, but not just as webpages, perhaps use CVS so any one can contribute...

    Just a random sequence of nerons firing...

    That machine should be able to do quite a bit of rendering time.

    [b]I almost forgot a big part..... music. Do we have anyone out there who is musically talented enough to compose some music for the movie? Several hours worth, very likely... there are some good music synth programs out there aren't there?[/b][/quote]

    Drazi, I sent you an email about this. For everyone else, I will list the websites that my band's music can be downloaded. These songs and style probibly won't be used for the soundtrack, I would like to do something along the lines of a Christopher Franke type feel. I am letting you guys know what my band is capable of.

    Thanks. My band and I hope to be associated with this project.

    Take Care,

    Check out the following web site. It is very similar to what you want to do. Except, this one is Star Wars based. =)

  • Ok come on we can't let this die down. We got people willing to donate skills and equipment. I say we should do a short little parody to get this started.

    Thanks to those who have responded. Got lots of voice and writing.... gotta round up modelling people. The hardest kind to find...
  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>
    I can model. It's texturing that I have trouble with.

    Hey, it occurs to me that if we're going to go through with this, we should have a separate forum set up for it somewhere. What do you think?

  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>
    You could discuss it in the fanfic forum. That doesn't get much other use.

  • I wonder if anyone had thought about filming the story of a fan fiction author we all know... wouldn't that be the first option?

    Apart from that: If you need someone to help you with programming of a project website, then count me in.

    I think going farther with that would be a bad idea... we all know the author doesn't like publicity, and if we make a good movie, it will probably be popular.

    LoH, I will let you know when I get to that point.
