Time for another update.
A few weeks back I discovered the
Celebrate the Web contest, the idea is to create a pilot episode for a webseries, they give you a few things that must be included and you have seven days to do it.
So I signed up, with fellow teammates Jemma and Leanne.
Didn't hear anything for awhile, forgot about it.
Then I got the email, your seven days starts now.
We came up with a storyline involving a girl from the future who couldn't remember why and had a bit of a mad rush to figure out the details and how we were going to make it.
In the end we did all of our filming in about three-four hours, then I brought the footage home for editing. There are also two short machinima segments, created in Moviestorm to represent our virtual world. That was tricky because I wanted it to look virtual but not in the same sense that Tron did.
With more time, there are a few things I'd go back and adjust but unfortunately, we wouldn't have made the deadline. Still, quite pleased to have made something so quickly.
Ultimately, 13 pilots were submitted and all of them are being screened at the ACME Comedy Theatre in Los Angeles this coming tuesday. This must be the first time I can say any of my work has had a Hollywood screening :D
