View Full Version : Make a Movie Movie. did that make sense to you?

this is my idea, let's make a movie about people making a movie! (I've actually made these movies but I wanted more people than just me and Machiathemarshwiggle) these are the characters (if you recognize the names there's a reason for that. once I have people in all the parts I'll post the cast and people can make their own characters if they want. then we can start making this thing. (you can be a guy if you're a girl but I'd prefer not to have guys being girls.)

James: a normal guy who got a part in this new movie. he's rather sarcastic with any stupid people he is forced to work with. you'll learn more about him as we go. (this is my part so it's already taken)
Sirius: he's the actor James works with the most. a guy who thinks he's like the height of coolness. he has long curly hair and uses a lot of hairspray. he wears really dark sunglasses.
The Director: really violent and doesn't allow much messing around. thinks he has a French accent but I doubt he does. doesn't know much about cameras or making movies. (this part may be taken)
Lilly: she's in pretty much every movie she can be in at once, she doesn't actually work with the other actors because she's too busy. she's really pretty and knows it. pretty much she doesn't know James and Sirius exist.
Casting director: kind of like the on set mother. she tells people what she needs to know and she likes James so she treats him like a son. she's one of the people who see what's good about James. She's one of the only people who can put the director in his place (this part may also be taken)
Assistant Director: she's the other person who can put the director in his place. she's good friends with the casting director. she also puts everyone else in their place. not always in the nicest way.
Sarah: James's sister who stops by now and then to check on him. she intimidates Sirius and the Director. she also loves shopping.

that's all I can think of for now I'll add to it later
now I want to say the rules for this thread: no crude humor, don't be really mean to the other characters unless your character description says to. no swearing. no reference to smoking, drinking, or anything else that might offend anyone. you get the idea. this is a Christian movie if I didn't mention that before.

(i love acting too... :)... ummm.. i donno if its possible or what but can u make up another person i can play? i was thinking perhaps i could be lily's only real friend she has time for or something? a fellow actess?... i could think of something but i know u are running this show and so i didnt wanna 'takeover'? donno...

OK you can have a new character. her name is Jane and you can have that description. to give you more of a part you are Lilly's stunt double that's how you know her well.

okay, you realize that if this is ever going to get under way you have to get people on here. so far we have these parts filled

James
The Director
Lilly
Casting Director
Jane

I will start doubling up parts soon.

yea! i think u should proly just start it cause i kinda learned that its easier when peoples just come into the story than trying to have all the peoples straightend out, cause ineveintibly u r going to need more charachters anyway...

Gondorgirl
04-02-2006, 06:30 PM
all right, where shall we start, when the people get the parts, or at the biginning of filming?

Eressea
04-02-2006, 10:37 PM
oh, goodness, i donno... i mnea, it was ur idea and i and i dont wanna take it away from u... hmm... i dont know xactly what u mena 'when the peoples get their parts' but i think u should have it be when everyone can be like in it if they wish... im not sure if u had a movie in mind that they were going to be in... and how big of a part you want that movie to play in the story.. becuase if u could do it one way, like haveing it start and u just tell what parts everyone gets in the movie and all, and basically all that... and then 8u could have it start at the first 'get together', when all the actors and all just talk aboiut the script and thier parts adn such..... thats just one idea... i dont wanna laden u down with em, for i am usussally a neverending source of ideas.. (thats for being the writer... the 'usually' is because there is such a thing as writers block...:()
anyway......

all right we'll start at the meeting of the actors. and the movie plays a part as in the scenes mostly take place while the actors are filming the scenes and things like that.

we'll need the director on here so that he can tell people what parts they got

(or in other words, we need Machiathemarshwiggle or fish_wwjd_frog who is the casting director.)

(are you a writer too? I want to be an author but I have had writers block for about a year.)

got it... so we are waiting 4 directiors?...
yea im a writer, (well... i cant call myself that yet cause i have yet to get anything published, but my friend and i are looking...) im currently writing something (as usuall...) fantisy, but im only at 180 pgs or so so far...

ha ha. I don't even have one page. but of course I still have more than three more years of school. writers block is a terrible thing.

i just have another thing on hand to work on and force myself to work on it, because i know when i try to write it wont work, and so i just wait till ive got it coming out my ears again and then i cant tryp fast enought to keep up with my mind. try having another thing on hand... for instance, i work on editing my friends storys and such when im out of imagination for a time.. fortunatly for me, (otherwise i would go mad) it ususally only lasts a few days... (not writing takes its toll on me, i begin to be very short in the temper and such.. hehe..)

Gondorgirl
05-09-2006, 07:14 PM
no. but you can start it. I think it should start when the actors meet. there's usually a meeting when all the cast and crew meet.
