...Honestly you're the first I've said it to. ^.^'

XD! I just channel Keef that well.

I've had practice with my acting skills too. I'm doing a skit for a convention in about a month and had to record audio for a character. It was pretty good practice. :3

@Dana Glad to hear the cold's passing, and I hate to say it but you've got quite a lot to say, so...drink lots of water! ^^' I really didn't know how to respond just their, but seriousley, Zim gets adjetated quite a lot in this episode in-perticular so please try not to strain your voice to much when practising, just do all the major screaming and such in the atuall recording, and could you please send me a message later so I can inform you were you get angry, when you're neutral, paranoid etc. Thanks -
@Josh; Thanks. And I will. You wouldn't believe how many times I had to get water for my audition! XD I can't do major screaming anyway...my voice is still broken for the most part. I'm pretty sure I can figure out Zim's different moods. But go ahead and do that. I can see how close I am. :83:

Alright, I'll message you in a while, and now that I've gone over it the only moods shown are Pleased with himself/Condiscending, Paranoid/Angry, Fearful/Scared, Hungover from it all/Tired WTH?Wah. But you don't actually scream, shout at all in the script, remember when tag nags him up to the point were he nearly snaps and says "I. AM. ...Keef!?!" Well it changes changes to Paranoid to WTH, see?

Okay, I just have to say when I think about the script. I'm not a writer, but I know the show well. I thinkthere's too much happening in the script. infact I think that it should just be Zim talking to the camera and Gir being gir. lol I like the beginning, where Zim makes Gir get out of the way. I think that this should mostly be a Zim monologue talking to YouTube talking about how we're all doomed and such. but whatever I'm not a writer or anything and you have enough writers, so. =P I personally don't like the script. I like the general idea and I like The initial interaction between Gir and Zim. I realize this is in the middle of production and I also realize that I'm not going to change anyone's mind. I'm not reallyu trying to. I just want the fan made show to be more like the real show. otherwise this is just crappy fanfiction that someone decided to animate, and contibutes nothing at all to the show. sorry if I'm being mean. it's just what I think. lol =)

This may look like I'm coming form an angle which would be classed as mean, but.. if you've read the script through like you said you have you would of known that we wanted to fit as many casted characters in as possible so if we don't make another one, at least they have something to be proud of. And it sounds like to you the ideal episode would be a boring conversation of Zim discussing to Gir how doomed everyone is, which is nice to fit in ow and again in log episodes and a filler but as a whole minisode it would seem boring and give the image that the pilot is more a...trailer.

And this is the pilot to show the public what we can do, not to show ow very in focus with the show we can be, IZ had a big amount originality in each episode, so I and I'm sure a few others wouldn't class this episode in-perticuler "a crappy fanfic".

Good?

well still. Oh, this ISthe pilot? lol I'm retarded then. XDI wasn't trying to be mean before, though. =) but the plot sill seems too crowded.The show never really had more that one plot line. sometimes it had like amini one on the side or something, but normally there was only one plot line. you have like what...

Zim with the camera

Dib barging in

Tak crashing into his house

keef being irritating

that's like 4 things going on at once. way too much. but I do understand about just in case you don't make another one. lol although you could've worked them all into one story line rather than basically a party of people that zim hates. XD

Also I didn't mean just this. I meant that if the scripts keep being written like this, then the whole series would be a bunch of crappy fanfaics that someone decided to animate.

Also I think that if this is the way the script is, it should be changed and made into a promotional thing. then the whole series would ve like Gir holding the camera and being Gir and video recording Zim failing and being hurt and stuff. lol if this was supposed to be like the actual series, why is he talking directly to a camera? the pilot of a series should be the way the rest of the series is gonna be. otherwise it looks like you guys don't know what you're doing.

@Dan: Ack, please edit your post if you need to add more... try not to post so much cause I don't have merge posting available yet.

BUT, I am with Dan on this. I haven't had a chance to look through the pilot and edit it because of personal problems. That and my personal help has been busy and I really want her to be a part of this too. I don't mind that everyone still storyboards and records voices... don't be surprised if I snip out parts completely.

We need to think of the project as a whole and with too much going on we'll have overlapping audio, alot of animation frames, and it could be chaotic way too fast.

I understanding giving lines to every voice actor...but at the same time I have a better way of working on those with our practice clips. Not everyone needs to be in the pilot.

@Skoo I see. Well, since you're the head I will let you decide what you want going in and out, but I still stress that we could try to get at least a couple of characters in, think what happened to Shwartz's team, they made the pilot including three out of somewhat all the many other VAs they had and they ended up not even making an episode, so that's why I tried to fit most of the VAs in.

So do with the script what you will, honestley I wish we could just change the plot arounda bit so the VAs could still stay but once again, your the boss, not me. ^^

The fact that they got a pilot episode done isn't something to scoff at. I blame Schwartz's lack of dedication after that and allowing the board and tasks to become jumbled. I think we're a bit more organized than that.

I understand you wrote the pilot and that you put so much into it, but we're not exactly on that level of skill to be able to make things too complicated too soon. Our animators are still getting down the style and we only recently hired in storyboarders for poor Rachel to get some help with.

I will never allow my VAs to become rusted. Hence... homework. besides... the pilot isn't the only animation that will be done... I want to make small clips of other things eventually. Tests.

All-right, that sounds pretty good, small clips, homework. At least we'll be keeping ourselfs active to our purposes on here. While we're on the topic, do you want to edit the script at all?
