Talk about the "Customer" series, with now two episodes posted online, here. customer-part1.tripod.com/The reason why I do not have a poll here is because this is still an ongoing series; once the series ends, I might. (which might be pretty soon, I don't know) |

Not just me. Admin controls. Sux for me.
Couldya package it with FM2005 DVD once you finish rotoscoping it? And when do we do the genesis credits sequence? Urg. So many questions...

To be honest, I don't know the answer to that.
And of course I'll package it onto your FM2005 DVD. Whatever episodes get finished by then. That might take a while, though, so in the meantime I might just roll off a VHS tape of the episodes... but when there's more to render. Right now there's only two. I have a few more in mind, one with the dialogue and structure almost finalised, so you never know.
This is not going to be submitted to the film festival. It's merely an experimental series, and the combined runtime is far too long for that. (that and the language and threat (while one can argue about one of the films submitted there, "Dead Ringer", the most you could say in "violence" was "chase scenes"; you never saw anyone pointing a gun at each other or shooting anybody (even though there was a sequence at the beginning of the assembly of a gun (the gun was real)), and death was implied in non-graphic aftermaths)
"Broadway Syndrome", if that is completed, and "Inakamichi", if that is completed as well, will be my submissions to MV Film Festival 2006. (and possibly San Francisco International Film Festival 2006 if I can get these done soon enough)

Saw the first one. I hate the audio. It sucks. Otherwise a very worthwile movie.
Second one wasnt as funny as the first. As expected with a comedy series. When are you doing the third one?

Whenever I can film it- I have Aniket in mind for the role in the third one. (I want to avoid using the same actor more than once) It's merely him talking on a cellphone outside, to his girlfriend.
I suppose it might be taken as a comedy, but with a mostly cynical sense of humour. Now, this can be different in various segments, but I plan on combining them all into one movie and releasing that on DVD.
Yeah, I used whatever control settings I could- I personally hate the video more than the audio for these files.

Well, they sound (through my subwoofer/speakers setup) like badly rendered conversations between spaz-tastic baboons in a prision for the criminally insane.
(NOTE: semi exaggerated for comic effect)

....
Saw the third installment. I think you need to remaster the audio track. I could hardly understand. What's this about a girlfriend, the bartender not having a cash register, (that was funny) and something about a trip to Japan. Or at least make subtitles so we have some idea of whats going on. Otherwise, I liked it. I anticipate the next segment.
....
You could have lost more than your eye...

That's the stoopid internet audio; we need a dotcom to be able to give it enough of a bitrate to make the audio nice and clear. (and post these in QuickTime) Dotcoms cost money, but I think we just might need one for the wave of G-2 films comin' this way.

Very true. Shall we all contribute funds? (And when do we get our first paycheck?  ) |

We get our first paycheck once our production budgets rise above $10,000, that's when. We're far too low-budget for monetary salaries.
Or do you mean actual profits for our movies? Uh yeah, that depends, but I think we'd get more money off donations as of currently.
We should start looking into web hosting- I'm most likely to ask what the AMF Productions guy uses for hosting, and just take that. (and what server as well) I would like to post our movies in Quicktime with decent quality. ("another walk in the park" standard, since that file turned out fine (I think that one was at 3MB/minute))

What I meant was when we turn a profit from at least ONE movie we get a monatary salary in the $2 to $5 range. (Better than my rickety salary. ) |
