Proposals for our next film

Heya! back to the discussion on the film!

Ever since shoe suggested stop motion, it seems a host of people have jumped on the bandwagon and called for a stop motion film. Unfortunately, though interesting it may be, I currently dont have an interest in stop motion. On top of that, stop motion would be ALOT of work. First theres the story...We need to come up with a story appropriate to a stop motion film. Secondly, theres the making of the models. Whether you use clay, or plasticine, or whatever, itll be alot of effort. Finaly theres the whole process of filming it...TIME CONSUMING!! Might as well take loads of pics and use motion jpeg! :P

So anyway, glad got that cleared. 2nd idea is by me!
I saw a ghostbusters fan film last night (pretty good actually, even though lame), and thought to myself "hmm...this might work!" The problem with ghostbusters is that I forsee even more work than starwars, esp with the effects department. Star Wars was rudimentary (albeit time consuming) effects. Ghostbusters is sumthin else... Also, we will need better actors, as unlike star wars, effects cant realy patch up shoddy acting! Actors will need to be able to potray the silliness and serious stupidity necessary to make the film good.

And the third idea is back to the action-comedy. Here it branches into 3:
  • Rush Hour style
  • Asian/Apologetic Viking (yet to decide)
  • James Bond spy type (but stupid comedy instead of serious)

As usual, all will need a kick-ass story, good actors and great filming and editing (the third is covered by me! :P)

Comments and feedback more than welcome. As usual please leave in the form of a comment and NOT on Cbox. Thanks! Ive turned off the moderation so that it is easier and quicker for comments to go up, thus acting more like a forum / discussion.
