I believe that my gamertag is o Twistedl o, not Twisted

I'll be pre-ordering from amazon to get the psycho look early just so I can fulfill my part.

Is anybody gonna be the spec-ops temp character?

Edit: I also am getting a hd cap card and will be a commentator

Maybe we could do that! We could use the preorder bonuses to be the characters in the Machinima! If you have a way of recording your voice, send me a copy for the side machinima or ItalianDevil for the main machinima. If you want to record the side machinima I'd be happy

well I'm not gonna be making a machinima myself, yes I have a way to record voice and I'm already on the list for this machinima as "the Psycho" I've been practicing my deep and scary voice too :celebration:

I'll be commentating on online gameplay. I'll be sure to post my vids on this site... Also I may also be making a montage with dubstep music... This is great news for dubstep fans :thumbsup:

Yeah, 2 or 3 writers would be good. We'll also need:
2 more voice actors (3 in total)
1 person who can record episodes (and one backup)
3 Script writers
2 Idea Guys (An Idea Guy can also be a script writer)
And one Technician who does the graphics and stuff

I have a friend who might be interseted

For which part?

Yeah, that's what I meant by graphics. If worst comes to worst, I could be a Photoshop person

First year Bachelor of Design student, reporting in! :thumbsup: I shopped my own avatar, starting with those Bug and Eel wallpapers.

I'll be up for doing graphics, unless somebody who knows they could do a better job wants to step in...

Nope, that sounds great. I'd like the name to be "Off The Frontlines" and have something comical in it. Not sure what, but you can go wild and I'll tell you if I like it or not

As a general rule, dubstep makes anything exponentially greater. It's science

As a tech guy. He's good with tech.

I don't get this Dubstep fad... I'm more of a ambient/IDM kinda guy when it comes to electronic though

So a logo then? What for, in-video use?

Well it's not for everyone, although I'm curious as to what about it you don't get?

Making a Steam group for The Archetypes right now. Not sure about Off The Frontlines, but we could have a partnership.

EDIT: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/thearchetypes

Just give me your Steam name in a PM, and I'll invite you to join. Italiandevil and co. can become admins, I just founded the group.

^I remember signing up for the xbox originally... when did this computer stuff come in?

Seems like it is for everyone since, everyone and their grandma appears to listen to it. :mellow:

I find it boring tbh. What I've heard is difficult to differentiate one song from another, and there's no melodic complexity whatsoever... and I'm a man who enjoys a good melody. Of course, I'm always up to being proved wrong.

» Fri May 13, 2011 5:18 pm

The computer stuff is because everyone here almost certanly has a computer and can download Steam and use it as a chat system for free, while asking everyone to go out and buy an Xbox, preorder Brink for it and start a subscription for Xbox Live in order to discuss the Machinima is a bit harder.

And restricting posts to "Xbox players only" would be a bit limiting and you'd be losing a good chunk of your group.

doesn't seem that popular in my area sadly, and clearly you're listening to the wrong kind of dubstep.
enough about this though, we can just agree to disagree

Actually, I think the acting is on Xbox, and the discussions will be held through Steam. At least, thats what I had in mind.

Also, I'm not sure what we're gonna do for a story, I know we're doing the before the war and showing the comical side of pre-war, but now I got to thinking what if we had the story start as a "Just as the refugees got there" kind of story. The refugees obviously being played by resistance players, and the original civilians of the Ark being security.

Tips for listening to dupstep
1) LIsten on highest quality, you'll pick up more of whats going on and it won't sound like a bunch of noise
2) Either have an expensive stereo system or listen on some sort of ear buds, you'll hear more of whats "actually" going on
3) Crank the volume to 100

Try these songs while applying these tips, if you still don't enjoy it, then it's not for you.

Its actually a parody of the "main"machinima which your machinima, it really shows you that we're so hyped for Brink that we planned a machinima and parody of a machinima thats still in the planning process.

Sorry fi you''re taking offense at this, but I will still have time to write both scripts. And don't worry, I won't steal any of your ideas, but i might need a couple of your actors
