JediGhost[SITH] Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 I had the idea to try and make a Star Wars movie on Jedi Knight II. Assuming it's possible to Record, each character would be that character's model (Luke, Vader, Kyle Katarn, etc) and have his name. I'm not sure how it would work, and I'm looking for people who: A: Want to be in the movie B: Want to be the camera man (Spectator who records) C: Wants to write the storyline If you want to be in the movie, please post. If you think it's a stupid idea, tell me. If you think it's a good idea and/or want to suggest a storyline, please post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Picasso Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 It sounds phun.. i can be an ''actor'' =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morte_man Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 Sounds fun and i already have a lot of ideas, but i don't think i could ever do it as i don't have much time lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediGhost[SITH] Posted May 12, 2002 Author Share Posted May 12, 2002 Well we can't film over a period of a week or anything, it's the ingame recording system. It goes until you quit, or tell it to stop. So if we do it it's going to require a lotttttttttttttt of planning. Here's some characters I have in mind: Luke Vader Kyle Katarn Princess Leia (Mon Mothma skin?) Old Obi-Wan Stormtroopers Shadowtroopers Reborns I'm planning on being a storyline writer. As for being an actor, I'm not sure yet. What we really need are people to record it. Be spectators and fly around with record going, watching the "actors".

Tymshok Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 Im curious if there is a way to splice the pieces of action together.. Why not try and do a reenactment of the final sabre fight in episode 1 for starters? all the pieces of the puzzle are there.. One would just need to recreate the sequence.

JediGhost[SITH] Posted May 12, 2002 Author Share Posted May 12, 2002 I planned on doing several scenes from different evironments. Of course, everytime we switched maps, it would be a new movie file. It would be even better if we could get a mapper for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crybos Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 LOL, That sounds hilarious, Star Wars movie. It would take some time in making it, I figure. But, it sounds like a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JediGhost[SITH] Posted May 13, 2002 Author Share Posted May 13, 2002 If your interested in doing any of the parts (Acting, Recording, Writing Storyline, or Writing the dialogue) Email me: kannofire@yahoo.com AIM: KannoFire Server: 24.92.209.8:28071 I would suggest contacting me by E-Mail. Also, about splicing the recorded files... That would be nice. We will have to switch maps every now and again, and it would be nice if it could just fade to black, and fade in on the new map. But, of course, we'd need some1 who can do that. Otherwise, each map will have to be it's own "scene", thus requiring the viewer to start playing a new recorded demo file, which wouldn't be too terribly bad. (NOTE: This is only if your serious about helping out. Also, this is FIRST COME FIRST SERVE, the first person to request a part, gets it. Unless they really suck!) EDIT: I made a small website for the movie.. I'll make it better tomorrow: http://www.geocities.com/jk2movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grafox Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 I was wondering, wouldn't it be a lot nicer if you have a scripted scene, which you record. Like the scripted scenes in SP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediGhost[SITH] Posted May 13, 2002 Author Share Posted May 13, 2002 We COULD do that. There would be a lot of editing in the script.cfg I think it was called? I edited it before to change the lines of the players. We would also have to record the sounds of the players. I don't know about you, but I can't get Mark Hamill to come over and record some sounds And yes we could use the voices that came with the game... But the conversation wouldnt sound right.

GosU-ChoBo Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 Yeah... I'd like to be in. I either wanna be a camerman or a writer, or both. Preferably both, but a cameraman would be my first choice if I can't be both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JediGhost[SITH] Posted May 13, 2002 Author Share Posted May 13, 2002 Here's something else I thought of: During SP Scenes, they show the captions at the bottom of the screen. This would be much better than sending messages. I'm trying to think how it would be possible to put that into Multiplayer but I don't think it would work.

Tawana Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 Originally posted by JediGhost[sITH] I'm trying to think how it would be possible to put that into Multiplayer but I don't think it would work. No need, the demos could just be converted to AVIs and edit everything in Premiere - or whatever is available -, I used to have an application that lets you record all sounds that are initiated within an application so you can play a demo recording the sound then play the demo again and export to bitmaps. Open your video editing utility of choice and put everything together. Add any effects, subtitles, whatever. Even have players with mics record their lines. Would probably be bigger than any demos but it could be cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vestril Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 Hrmmm, this sounds like a very interesting idea, I will have to give it some thought. I have some writing skills and experience, and if I can think of a storyline, I'll email you about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediGhost[SITH] Posted May 14, 2002 Author Share Posted May 14, 2002 Problems with making 1 big map with all my environments: #1 I can't make maps #2 We'd still have to stop playing to move locations #3 It's hard to recreate the actual areas I want to use (Emperor's Chamber) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
