Coming out of retirement... and need help for I-21 teaser and trailer


Ad Astra

 

Posted

I-21 looks like it has the opportunity to be HUGE... so, yeah, I'm caving on my resolution to not do ads for the game anymore.

As always, help is appreciated - if you're willing to join my impromptu extras/costume design/film crew, please let me know. The bulk of my filming is done on Justice (where my 50s and my MMs are). And I will do my best to include actual players instead of just using ya'll as body doubles. (No promises, though.)

First up is the teaser - this is my take on what I think I-21 will look like, and no, it breaks no NDAs coz I know nothing more than what the devs/mods tell everyone, and I don't have access to closed beta or anything. (So filming Time Manipulation is gonna be ALL guesswork.)

Questions, comments, and offers to help are welcome here.

Tough one, especially with the zone revamps.

Would be interested - perhaps some info around powersets/ATs that you're looking for might help.

*raises hand* Always happy to help a fellow SP member, especially after the warm welcome.

All I need is:
- At least a week's notice of "when" and "how long."
- ASAP, what kind of things you are looking to capture, so I can roll and/or level up a toon quickly.

True, but what's life without a few challenges?

I don't have any toons on Justice.

How can I help?


It's the end. But the moment has been prepared for ...

Look me up Michelle when you start filming.

I'm around and would be happy to help you.

I'd like to join in on the filming. Are you doing any voice acting for it as well?

Melancton on Justice needs to have a cape to help out, so I will have to hit some levels. He has a nice bright Silver Age costume, as you can see from the forum avatar.

What is the general timeframe you have for filming?

(I also have an Earth/Storm/Fire Controller at 50 on Justice already-- not quite as photogenic, but could certainly provide Thunderclouds, Tornadoes, Snow Storms and Freezing Rain. )


"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"

"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."

I'm still storyboarding out the teaser, so it's only just now taking shape in my head. (I got the music, though!)

Once this thing is a bit more defined, I'll let you guys know what I need. And don't worry, Redlynne, I've got your democode. You'll be in there somewhere.

(To see the difference between my teasers and my trailers, hit the link in my signature to my YouTube channel - from I-10 through GR, I've got teasers and trailers for almost every single issue.)

I already have a full blown trailer planned out...

All I require is a heap of cash and the knowledge of CGI modelling, rigging and animationg Gah.

I have so many ads for COH like this in my head that will never see the light of day because I don't know how to do CGI modelling and all that.

So I make do.

Here's hoping that democode I sent you contains everything you actually need to work with. If it doesn't (somehow), feel free to PM me with request(s).

And I know you policy is one demorecord of one character per player ... but if you need anything else, let me know. I've got nine 50s on Virtue (scrapper, which you have recording of, plus warshade, tanker, controller, controller, peacebringer, defender, mastermind and soldier of arachnos (bane powers, huntsman build, but with the legs!)) that I can put through their paces on a Rikti Target Dummy for a demorecord, should you need it.


It's the end. But the moment has been prepared for ...

I'm willing to lend a hand. Justice is "home" so hit me up at @backfire anytime. If I'm on, I'll help!

I dunno...framed shots from Faultline & Boomtown with post-production meteors could work.

This sounds like fun.

Would you prefer "Modern" or "I still have the old Pointy Ear Head" of my namesake character?

Is it possible to contribute a character from a server other than Justice? I don't think I have any there, I'm afraid.

If you're not on Justice, don't worry. I have scenes in mind (yes this sucker is progressing FAST in my head) where I will need several heroes and/or villains in a scene, and I can demomap folks in from other servers. Alternately, if I need a really big crowd of players, I can always see if Test is available - then you can just port the character of your choice over there.

And yes, I've already found my music for the teaser. No, I'm not telling you what it is.

And I might actually need voiceovers for this one. Mwahahahahahaha...

I'd be happy to send you a couple of costume files.

This I most certainly can do. You've heard my Hero-1.

I'd gladly give my namesake's costume file to be used in it for the hints of Time Manipulation. I already say she can do that with current powersets, now to have a powerset coming that's actually Time Manipulation \o/ DP/TM coming not soon enough!

Oh when I heard TM was the new powerset I wanted to scream - because my Mender is already level 50, and now I have to start her ALL OVER AGAIN! (So I may rename the 50, and put the name on a new character with TM.)

ARGH!

But we'll see... I have ideas of how to do Time Manipulation (they are probably WAAAAAAAYYYYYY off base, but they'll look really damn cool).
