THE EGG: episode one http://www.mindlessplayground.com/egg.htm

Ok gang. Here are the rules that we must obey. Videos should be between 30 - 180 seconds with everything, titles, music, etc. NO LONGER ! Anything longer than 3 minutes will be disregarded as an episode. It would be best to host the videos on a website rather than something like putfile.com that way we can link video to video. If you can't host, send me a PM and I will host it for you. There's no standard on compression or file format, just make it look clean and keep it under 15 megs if you can!

Videos can be shot with any kind of camera..

Lets just use one thread to post new videos on, by linking webpage to webpage new people that check out the thread won't have to sift through posts to watch new episodes, theoretically they would just open episode one and have hot-links directing them down the train..


The story doesn't have to focus on the EGG solely but it should start and end with an egg going from one place to another place so filmmakers can pick up where someone left off, also, filmmakers can deface the egg if they want too, like write something on it in pen or color it a certain way, the next filmmaker should just be sure to do the same thing to keep with continuity . NO BREAKING OF THE EGG ! that's all


TO GET INVOLVED, please go to ' THE EGG THREAD ' http://www.dvxuser.com/V3/showthread.php?t=27780

This is how it works...

A filmmaker can claim an episode in that thread only after the previous filmmaker has completed and uploaded their episode. Once their episode has been uploaded it is free reign. Anyone can claim the spot, however, its first come first serve.

Once someone claims an episode they have ONE WEEK to complete and upload their episode.

After they have uploaded, it is only at this time that a new filmmaker can come in and claim their spot.

Old filmmakers can jump back into the ring only after TEN EPISODES have been made after them.


Hope this all makes sense !

have fun :thumbsup:
 
Ill do episode 8 yeah awesome, that would be cool.

heres examples of my other work, www.milkyotech.com Ill probably throw some horror vibe in there if thats cool?

can I animate the egg thus negating the need for actors? it seems like a cool little project I can do one night after work.

does it HAVE to be posted or can the little bugger just walk?

maybe Ill have someone chuck it into chapter 9 :D

Thanks dude,
Adam.
 
Hey Adam, you can do wHateveR you want with this, just as long as we see an egg coming into and out of the story within 30-180 seconds. Animation would be awesome! What do you mean by the bugger can walk ?

I just checked out some of your work; bravo. Love it.

Run Rabbit Run was great stuff; how sad. I look forward to your egg short.

How was the Rabbit shot? Format?
 
yeah it can be whatever, as long as its an egg from start to finish, i guess it will probably have to lose the legs or something at the end so the filmmaker that followed you could keep with continuity
 
I think we shouldnt deface it. So I could start shooting my middle and end.
Otherwise I'll have to reshoot it all when the egg pops up in the other films and looks like something out of a clive barker film.
Also can I shoot Five??
5's my number.

I thought the point of it was to film one after the other. Watching the one prior to yours might change your idea.
