SYZYGY-The Movie Here's something I brought up in irc earlier and I thought I'd see what everyone thought.
How about a short fan film..will have to check with MC but it should be fine. I thought if we organise it in such a way it could be an international collaboration with acting filming etc. We could assign roles such as script, cast etc and in a few months produce something of reasonable quality and sentimental value. What do you think guys, or am I being stupid listening to irc sarcasm and following it as if it was a lead?
P.s Bugsy Director

Okay, Duckiemonster's playing Tippy as long as no miniskirts are involved. I've emailed MC asking for permission. For now, we should assume we do until we hear otherwise. Now we just need a script and to assign roles..
Anyone volunteering?
Bakers_12 was there anything you wanted to do in particular?
EDIT:MJ wants to do the script...I guess someone else can help if they want?

Help would definitely be good While I'm okay at script writing, I'd probably miss out on lots of in-jokes and plot-lines.

Okay, looks like people are going to volunteer for castings before we've written the script, so I suggest we call on all those willing to get this thing solid first before we decide on the cast? Does that sound reasonable?
Calling all those who want to help in the pre-production:i.e Writing, storyboarding,location scouting, casting directors etc..
Remember people can do behind the scenes stuff and act too.

Me too - behind the scenes, anyway. I'm a set & costume designer and a scenic artist - can also storyboard.

Perfect.
Tomorrow im going to post a list that I will update regularly with what people have volunteered to do. I think for now we need to be thinking (as Duckiemonster pointed out to me) whether we want to reinact previous PXC events, or create our own story. I was thinking sin city style maybe..
Though its not just up to me, it's a community project

Hate to burst your bubble but if you look at a news post (the one from the FT) on this page:
http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=8172&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=90
These is something about films relating to PPC in this, not sure you will get the permission, still worth a shot.

sounds like such a good idea!
Could make a movie on past events, possibly get mind candy involved, then it could be used to explain the story to new players?
I'm willing to help anyway possible, set design, location possibly a cameo as Caine
