What's new ?
« on: 27 Aug 2012, 12:25 »
Few things in the pipe:

1. Still conducting interviews for the IGS to be released

2. My in-pod time has dwindled lately so I've been scaling down PVP frequency. Making money in a few different ways

3. Schemes. Glorious schemes.

4. Silas is going after Omir Sarikusa.  Convenient for me since I'm mostly playing Mechwarrior at the moment. Now of course we can't generally interact with NPCs, but I'll be doing a little solo-arc and heading to Delve to try and purge some rival Sabik sects.  Dead bodies to folllow in wake.

5. Animation / Music video! Still a LONG way off but I've got a 'script' written out, music selected, now I have to get drawing and record video.  Going to be super fun but time consuming.

6. Oh, and I'm going to kill you all. Watch your asses.  :yar:

I am ashamed to say I don't know who that guy is.

Omir Sarikusa is the guy who is in charge of the Blood Raider Covenant.

I think Silas would like to take his place.  :yar:

Yea Omir is the Sansha Kuvakai for the Blood Raiders. Used to pop up a lot in the in-game news and some good arcs. 

Last we heard the Amarr 7th fleet kicked his butt out of the Bleak Lands and he ran and is hiding in Delve licking his wounds.

Not that I can godmod and interact with NPC's but this would put him in an extremely weak leadership position IC for other Sabiks to take a stab at knocking him off, if he isn't dead already..... It wouldn't be a stretch to assume quite a bit of inter-sect squabbling at the current state of affairs with the Raiders.

I'm planning on the video being about 7 minutes long at this point.

Now I don't have the time / resources/ or skill to draw much in the way of legit 'animation' so I'm looking at doing more of a series of 'stills' with limited motion. Pans, zooms, etc.  With the magic of photoshop and editing software I can take a still image on several layers in photoshop, make an image, move a few layers a tiny amount, take another, etc and do a limited sort of 'animation' in editing software.

In game fraps with some video filters for external-spacey stuff.

It's a short film about a small lowsec mining gang who have an unfortunate run-in with my Bhaalgorn and friends.  There's explosions, ship boarding, pew pew, and assorted goodies.

Omir is in Sahtogas.

Or at least that's where TomB or whoever dumped him last.  :psyccp:

I'm going to be spending some time with the Source Filmmaker and see how much re-jiggering and custom work I need to do.

Obviously can't use TF2 cartoony characters but if the pipeline from Gary's MOD or similar into source filmmaker isn't too difficult then we might just have a winner for the 2nd half of the film.  I only need a few 'sets' of some ship interiors for some shooting, and a ship bridge, pod room, etc....

mwa ha ha ha....
