Sir Procestuous Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 After recording my segments for the "Thank you" vid for the Andromedan overlords & The Space Pope, as well as the upcoming podcast episode, I recently got a semi-buzzed-induced flash of creative genius...[or insanity!] At some point it might be fun for a bunch of us to do a retrospective on the Space Quest Series and/or Sierra games in general done in the vain of the "I love the **insert decade, holiday, or fad here** specials that VH1 used to produce ad-nauseam in the early 2000s Intendant S 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troels Pleimert Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 What, Current Inside Copy wasn't enough? :) But, seriously ... that could actually be a lot of fun. If we could amass a bunch of archival photographs and such from the glory days of Sierra, it would be cool to do a fan-made sequel to CIC as a sort of "VH1 Behind The Music" pastiche.

Troels Pleimert Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Well, someone needs to take the helm onthis thing and get it organized; otherwise, we know from experience nothing will happen, no matter how good the idea is. :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicallyInspired Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 I dont know if I'd have the time to arrange another video this time around. Someone else will have to do it, I'm afraid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Procestuous Posted December 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Good News Everyone! My film student friend volunteered to help "co-produce" the project! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Procestuous Posted December 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Well, I guess it's safe to say the project is greenlit and in pre-pre production! :D Next step I guess would be to decide if we'll be using a script or winging it....no rush though, it's not like we have a production deadline or anything lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troels Pleimert Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Script, definitely. :) I imagine this thing as a montage with voice over and still photos with Ken Burns effects on 'em (where they slowly zoom in and out), interspersed with "talking head" interview segments. The interviews could be unscripted, but the narration definitely needs a script. And the interview subjects need to know what they're supposed to talk about.

Sir Procestuous Posted December 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Great idea Troels, along the same lines of what I'm envisioning as well...of course including a heavy dose of snark and sarcasm with just the right amount of added sentimental reflection for added spice! I should be able to get some time after the Holiday insanity to start pre-pre-pre-production insanity! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troels Pleimert Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 If you get a script going on Google Docs and invite me, I'd be happy to look it over and punch it up once you've got a first draft going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Procestuous Posted December 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Thanks Troels...I'm not sure the universe can handle the combined efforts of our combined awesomeness...I like that...muahahahahahaha!
