Impressive gravedigger! Very good very well very...swell? I shall THINK...using my BRAIN...some amazing beautiful spectacular deaths!!! Perhaps we should throw in some full frontal nudity just for the hell of it...may make people want to watch...make us famous. OR we could pretend I am pulling my pants down to expose my genitalia and show my dogs shaved genitals instead! Remember last year I said I wanted someone to punch me in the face and have my head explode? I am sure it has been done but the time has COME! </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=53&page#post-310 Thu, 15 May 2008 06:12:31 +0000 Andrew 310@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>In that case we shall have to think up a myriad of spectacular deaths for you.</p> <p>Freshmaker… freshmaker… that sounds so familiar. I think maybe I dated a Freshmaker in high school… Nancy?</p> <p>Nancy Freshmaker? </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=53&page#post-309 Fri, 09 May 2008 00:12:30 +0000 TheJacobSmith 309@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>HELLO,</p> <p> First off let me congratulate you on my success! For I am golden brown and delicious. Now down to business. I have been thinking because...that is what I do! In fact...it is possible that that is what I do BEST. THINK! I know I think because I think I can! Therefore you now know I think I know how to think! It is good for the brain as it were. First...I think you should know that I do not believe in commas! Why you ask?! BECAUSE!!! That's why. I am okay with sentence fragments however. Second...I think you should let me in your exclusive smart club...if there is such a thing. I should like to be apart of your symbiotic and cohesive bond known as friendship and hear you all chanting "one of us". I can contribute can tabs and depending on the circumstances...mentos (the freshmaker). If you don't except me I will find each and everyone of you...sit outside your house...and boycott your ass. I don't even know how or if that would work but believe me I will fuckin' do it. Okay now that we are all friends this remaining portion of my self-improvement/destruction is for Andrew. So please the rest of you look away...I am waiting...DO IT...okay Andrew now that we are alone...I want to die. So I was wondering if you would perhaps like to collaborate on a short film when you return to my realm! I should like to die in an assortment of ways all beautiful and colorful so that my family may enjoy my death/s anytime they please. I will message you when I know more. Okay my pills are wearing off so...bye. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-308 Mon, 19 Nov 2007 19:18:27 +0000 admin 308@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>C'mon guys! I feel like I'm the only one working on this!

I know I always have problems naming my characters, and I'm sure other people do as well (I'm tired of calling them things like 'Bob' and 'Person A'). So here's a place to put interesting or good potential character names when you think of them. They can be funny, or cool, or just nice-sounding ordinary names.</p> <p>I'll start out with a couple more unusual ones:</p> <p>Rick Shaw (get it?)<br /> Tripp Storm (I think Greg told me this one) </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-305 Tue, 02 Oct 2007 03:11:54 +0000 Vvinni 305@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>Alright, I've added some stuff (for better or worse).

I made a note that we should all mark who did what when, especially when making comments and such. Makes things easier to track. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-301 Sun, 30 Sep 2007 05:53:15 +0000 Vvinni 301@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>I've added and edited a bit.

I'll upload it now.</p> <p>UPDATE: Done.

It does seem pretty short. We'll either make it work short or let the project settle where it wants to and work with a longer dohickey, like during the summer or something.</p> <p>Thoughts? Especially from Andrew, because this is a potential project for his Spring class. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-295 Tue, 18 Sep 2007 04:45:27 +0000 Vvinni 295@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>I've just added my thoughts to Act II, and the questions presented in the brainstorming section. And twenty-one minutes is to short a time. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-294 Tue, 18 Sep 2007 04:23:07 +0000 Vvinni 294@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>It's dowlnoaded, and I'll take a look at Scene 1. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-293 Tue, 18 Sep 2007 01:39:57 +0000 Greg 293@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>It looks spiffy, too.</p> <p>Also, I did indeed add a "Scene One" of sorts. Just an introduction to a few characters, setting up the idiot, setting, etc. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-292 Mon, 17 Sep 2007 01:47:02 +0000 admin 292@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>Celtx just released version 0995, and I'd recommend that people update to it just so that we're all using the same version (I've tested it and it seems perfectly stable and also has some improvements such as dual dialogue and custom formatting).</p> <p>Get it at <a href="http://www.celtx.com/download.html">celtx.com</a> </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-291 Sun, 16 Sep 2007 18:23:44 +0000 Vvinni 291@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>Will do. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-290 Sat, 15 Sep 2007 21:08:12 +0000 Greg 290@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>Alrighty. I'm gonna actually add to this thing now. I encourage everyone else to do the same. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-289 Mon, 27 Aug 2007 18:29:32 +0000 Vvinni 289@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>I've got it. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-288 Mon, 27 Aug 2007 05:48:38 +0000 admin 288@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>No problem. You're actually already on the shared list, I believe. If you're not seeing the project on the server let me know and I'll get it worked out. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-287 Mon, 27 Aug 2007 04:27:09 +0000 Vvinni 287@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>Right, I'm pretty sure I'll need the file shared with me.</p> <p>ThisIsNotAPipe.</p> <p>I probably should have replyed a week ago, sorry. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-286 Sat, 18 Aug 2007 22:37:46 +0000 Greg 286@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>Excellent. I think we can work with this. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-285 Wed, 15 Aug 2007 08:20:48 +0000 admin 285@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>ok, I've been brainstorming a little bit and my idea is basically that we follow the story of a disgruntled speechwriter as he attempts to sabotage the campaign of a Wyoming state representative as he runs for US Senate. Some more detailed notes are in the new CeltX project.</p> <p>I've posted a new project to the CeltX server, titled "ExG Films Collab: a new comedy project," and if you were in on the previous (mostly defunct) "you explode filmmaking" project, you should already have permissions to download and edit the script. If you're new to this whole process and want to be involved, your first step is to download and install the free script writing program <a href="http://www.celtx.com">CeltX</a>, and set up a CeltX account. Then just post your username here (or e-mail it to me) and I'll get you set up and ready to go. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-284 Tue, 14 Aug 2007 22:46:38 +0000 admin 284@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>Well, helping on the project for now consists of collaborating online. So that's just fine.</p> <p>I'll post some ideas later today. I promise. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-283 Tue, 14 Aug 2007 17:14:17 +0000 Vvinni 283@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>I'd be willing to help with the project if I can, however I'll be in Santa Fe. Far far away from any of you. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-282 Sun, 12 Aug 2007 20:34:16 +0000 Vangardt 282@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>I still have my one script that I have been slowly, slowly working on that I would really like to do something with when it is done. I pretty much want it to be the best it can be so when I finally finish that I will be pursuing that actively.</p> <p>However, it isn't that different from the general genre of our current work. I would like to think it is very different overall, but it is undeniably the same vein. It may just be one of our weirdest... </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-281 Sun, 12 Aug 2007 17:00:51 +0000 Vvinni 281@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>I've Just Realized this place exists! </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-280 Sun, 12 Aug 2007 09:06:13 +0000 admin 280@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>Sweet. Tell you what: I'm in the market for a 10-20 minute short script for my 16mm final in the spring. If the script's ready by then I can actually pick it up and shoot it.</p> <p>I'll brainstorm a few plots and post them here as I think of them. I urge others to do the same. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=51&page#post-279 Sun, 12 Aug 2007 07:31:34 +0000 Greg 279@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>So I was just thinking I'd like to start up a collaborative project, and I'd like the flick to be a political or romantic comedy. You know, move outside the typical production of EXG stuff (not that the current material is bad). I think broadening EXG's horizons would be a healthy change.</p> <p>Just a thought. Obviously certain people are going to be very busy in the next year editing a certain movie, but I think a short film is easily do-able, if everyone works together.</p> <p>Any thoughts as of yet? Please keep them at least moderately positive. I'm in a fragile state. </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=50&page#post-277 Mon, 11 Jun 2007 03:15:42 +0000 Jeanne 277@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>Oh Kay so I just reciently arrived home from a holiday on the West Coast and along the road came up with a strange idea really and it all has to do with this funny thing I just noticed: </p> <p>Stressed is Desserts spelled backwards...</p> <p>Anyway I have half of a script written about daredevils and the meanning of revenge.<br /> If you are interested... don't know how far it will go but we shall sea.... </p> <p>is it 6008 or 2007 I can't remember... </p> http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/topic.php?id=27&page#post-274 Fri, 23 Mar 2007 05:58:41 +0000 admin 274@http://www.exgfilms.com/forum/ <p>Reviving this thread now to let everyone know that I'll be back in Colorado from the afternoon of Friday the 23rd until the end of the month.</p> <p>BE YE WARNED! </p>
