Viz photo story (long, but not as long as it used to be)Hi everyone. The guts of the script for the Viz photo story appears below. Spacefish has agreed (in principle) to be our star, but he has final script approval and needs to travel down from Scotland to do this.
If anyone else wishes to express an interest in the lead, they are welcome to do so - but as director/producer (ooh, look at me, big man) I really would prefer Spacefish. Perhaps we can schedule this for the afternoon of the next London B3ta meet? That would also ensure that we have plenty of other talent and stand-ins present.
1. The shoot will take place in three major locations on a weekday afternoon to be announced: London Waterloo, Tottenham Court Road and Soho.
2. We may require access to a residence somewhere close to one of these locations.
3. A back-up digital camera would also be a good asset to have.
If you are a B3tan, live close and would like to help in any way, please let me know at:
manic AT bloggerheads DOT com
Notes for Photoshopping requirements are included in the script (formats will be announced at this time and you will, of course, need to leave assigned space clear for voice balloons). All Photoshopping for the project will be done live on the board, exported in low-res JPEG for all to enjoy. Whatever we get paid for the feature will go directly to the B3ta fund (if, indeed it is published and we do get paid).
A note on cliches: Please note that not all cliches have been included, but using all of them at once would be indulgent and possibly minimise our chances of publication. Besides, I'm hoping that this first effort will not be our last.
The script follows the structure of your average Viz photo story - with 9 frames per page (27 frames in total, set pieces mostly grouped in threes and with little surprises each time you turn the page). The final three frames must for now remain a secret (sorry). All I can tell you for now is that if Spacefish does turn this down, it's probably on the basis of these last three frames.
;o)
In the meantime, please do enjoy the script.
