Avatar Fan Film 3 - Who wants to take part?

[Alan]

Kaltxì ma eylan,

Ok, who is up for taking part in Avatar Fan Film 3?

With the coming AvatarMeet 2012 in Seattle only a few weeks away the opportunity to do another Avatar fan film is just too good to pass up. The theme of this fan film is:

'Now we will send them a message.'

The intent is to create a fan film that we can send to the creators of Avatar to give them some encouragement for the next film and show them our appreciation. An 'Irayo' if you will, for bringing Avatar to us. This will also act as a wonderful record of this time in all our lives to look back on. Ok, so what is the synopsis?

Synopsis:
We all have our own individual and collective 'Avatar stories' to tell. This fan film will be the opportunity to collect them together. It will cover the story from the beginning when we first discovered Avatar and what our experience was like. It will explore our collective and individual journeys since then, how it has changed us, perhaps caused us to think and do things differently, through to the friendships and communities we have formed as a result. The final aspect will be an opportunity for us to say 'Irayo' to James Cameron, his cast and crew; to send them a message.

Whilst the opportunity will be taken to capture a considerable amount of the content at AvatarMeet 2012, this really is open to anyone who wishes to take part from the forums really. Even if you are unable attend the meet up.

So who is interested in taking part? If you are, feel free to post a reply here. There is no need to go filming right away as I will post more information once we know that there is enough interest out there.

Over to you.

Eywa ngahu,

I'm in

I think the meetup is a great place to do it.

[Moco Loco]

I'm certainly open to it and think it's a great idea.

[Drewan]

And Yes---you can count on me....

[Alan]

Great! Irayo for your interest ma eylan. Hopefully we will get some more interest along the way to take part. I've been working on a loose 'script' in the background. Hopefully this should be a lot of fun for everyone. Feel free to pass the message around.

[MOMS Ball Avatar]

Me too!

[James of terra]

I am in!!!!

[Alan]

Helloooo James

Well, of course you two are in - I'll be chasing you with the camera! Hehehe.

I'd be delighted to take part.

I want to say something about how Avatar reminded me of my passion for other living things, and how it reignited my sense of duty in protecting them from those who would eradicate them for their own gain.

Hey Alan I think you know my reply already... if you need my non-UK, non-US, err... non-Native-English-speaker accent... any time ma oetsyp tsmukan!

I think it is a Very good idea, in terms of 'sending them a message' - but also as a way of 'Keeping the feeling alive' & reminding us why in the world we're actually here (e.g. on the forum, the Meetup...) & what Avatar was/is for us, and what this 'Avatar bond' means...

I'll See you (& your camera) - at the Meetup, hehe.

[Rainbowhawk1993]

I'll see about that. It might be fun.

Hey there, Alan! A belated "I'm interested" from me. I need to pay closer attention! Looking forward to the details.

Ahhh, ma tswal tsmuke. It doesn't matter what tongue you speak, Avatar speaks to all who become connected to it.

Irayo for the test footage you sent through

Cool....Wot you like! Arri Alexa indeed...Hehehe.

OK lets get started!

Irayo to everyone who have registered their interest in our fan film. With the help of Drewan I have pulled together a website that contains all the details we need to this film on the road.

There are five main pages:

• Home Page - contains a drop box for you to upload your footage and a sneek preview of the start of the film (Irayo to tm20 for doing the voice over).
• Script Guidance - This gives an overview of the script and a link for you to download the script for you to read through and get your thinking caps on what you would like to say.
• Film Making Tips - covering shot types, camera info, sound, lighting and direction
• Uploading Foootage Tips - How to name your clips, file formats and how to upload your footage.
• Previous Fan Films - provides information about the previous two fan films that have been made.

There is now nothing to stop you filming away...unless you want to get involved with any of the specific scripted text. In which case contact me before filming these bits so I can update the script with who is doing what.

As I said at the start of this thread, although a fair amount of the filming will be undertaken on both the camping trip and in Seattle, this is open to anyone who would like to take part. So visit the website to find out more:

www.AvatarFanFilm.net

If you haven't already posted above that you would like to take part either leave a post or PM me. This is so I know who is taking part.

Irayo for taking the time to 'send them a message'. Have fun.

Eywa ngahu,
