Title: FanFilm idea
Post by: ceric on December 19, 2006, 07:22:06 PM
Just wanted to throw this out here that I'm writting up a fanfilm and wanted to see if anyone here would be willing to participate in some aspect. I have a feeling it's going to be a fairly large film with lots of Interior and Exterior sets. I have some locations in mind for some specific scenes, Silver Creek Falls park and Beacon Rock. Lots of sets for the interior scenes are going to be built but I will try to keep them small.
I have lots of characters planned as this story will take place after EP3, so I will need if possible the following costumes and people:
Storm Troopers, Clone Troopers, Biker Scouts, Jedi, Darth Vader, Wookiee, Pilot, Bounty Hunter, Nightsisters (Good/Evil), Imperial Officer, and some Galactic Denizens of the Humanoid type.
Premise of the fanfilm is:
Jedi need to Find a captured Wookiee with knowledge of a lost planet that has a wreckage of an Old Jedi Training ship which contains a Jedi Holocron. The planet is Dathomir, which has force sensitive Witches, the wreckage of the Jedi Training ship Chuunthor, and an Imperial Prison base.
Currently, I'm writting up a screenplay, storyboards, and designs for sets. I would like to film some key set pieces at OMSI or some place else, but lack a video camara. If anyone would be willing to help film this would be greatly appreiciated. I would like to film lots of exterior sets this Summer 2007, after C IV of course, if anyone would be available let me know. Thanks. Hope to make this weird dream become reallity.

I'm in... I can be a clean Stormtrooper, a dirty Stormtrooper (or Sandtrooper), MAYBE a Darth Vader or a Rebel Fleet Trooper (if I can get them together by then), and a REPUBLIC COMMANDO for sure!! 

I may also have some pretty exotic weapons available by then, like an E-web blaster cannon, E-11's, DH-17's, MAYBE some DL-44's, some Biker Scout Blasters, DC-17's, MG-15's, Lewis Guns, and MG-34's... oh yeah I almost forgot, MAYBE a Princess Leiah blaster too!  :D

I'd be glad to help. I got a camera if we still need that, and I can get you in to OMSI  after the SW exhibit closes if thats needed. I've worked on set construction for a couple plays and I can do lighting if you need it.

Filmed a few scenes on the skybridge over the weekend, footage turned out great. Thank you very much to those that participated.
Vader's Elevator filmed footage was good Mike, Thank You.
Thanks Martin for use of your camara.
Good job TD's, Jedi , BH, and Wookiee, and TK. Sorry no blue m&m's in your guy's trailers.
Thanks to OMSI for letting me shoot there. We were a hit for the people waiting in line.

It's a crying shame that you have no use for the TIE PILOT.....
EVERYONE knows that if there is a pilot in the film, it will be a hit!  :wink:

Does one EVER have use for a Tie Pilot?  All they do is crash, or get blown up!! :wink:

Post by: tavrikgannon on January 04, 2007, 10:24:37 PM
Better a TIE PILOT than a SCOUT or a STORMTROOPER! At least when we go it is quick and painless. We don't have to face the disgrace of getting our hindquarters handed to us by little teddy bears! Just something to consider....

Hello, I've just joined and want to dive right into the conversation here, if you don't mind.

We are doing a fan film in the Tacoma area and DO have a use for a tie pilot (and yes, they do get blown up, sorry!) along with a few other choice aliens and imperial types.

We have built a few sets and are building even more, including an imperial bunker identical to the one seen in ROTJ.

We would be willing to give you acess to our sets for your film, if you think that would help.

Are you a tie-pilot? Although, I do have one friend up here who has an almost complete tie-pilot costume. But we also need the tie-cockpit backdrop.

Just a fast FYI from me here folks.

Mel is the Producer of the film project I am on and talked about at OMSI.

And Mel, It may be a good idea to start a new thread on our film project then posting on Eric's Project thread.

Less confusion that way one who is talking about what project.  :)
