The Devils Blurb: Episode 1 Page 4

okay. :)

Hey you got your own section on the boards. I didn't even notice because I mainly use the Active Threads bit.

I gave birth to this baby and then you lot adopted it and are teaching it to walk, you doing a great job, now teach the bastard to talk!

And then in a couple of years when it's all grown up and you've done all the hard work, I'll come back and claim it as my own, mwah ha ha HA HA HA!!!

You did leave it on the steps of the Hospital Leevil.

I've already informed Gavin but I've had some tragic family matters to deal with so I'll not be involved for a few days but I will be back soon but its all going really well with this project so keep it up guys. Hopefully my write up on how Cat gets introduced and involved at the start of the show is a good and acceptable and perhaps Gavin can build on that existing material.

No problem Scott mate, I know it's not looking very active on the thread but it's a hive of activity on pm's. I will fill in for Charley for the time being I'm not wearing a dress though...

Are you sure you're capable of filling in for Charley?

(Damn - years of reading Viz really hasn't done me any good has it.)

...I have read alot of Charley threads and have noticed that there is a certain template to her posts I will attempt to mimic :D and it's only til the darling is back of course

I've been away from the thread a few days, have I missed any deadlines? I've been busy recently and haven't had any time to work on anything regarding this project, but I'm availavle again now.

I have sent some more scenes to both Earman & Gavin by PM's.

Did you receive it?

What else does Gavin need from us to write?

I think Cats intro is covered, as a group it should be fun throwing our ideas in all together here for the montage and its just the death scene with Dev, Cat, the producer, the singer and Chris that needs to be ironed out more finely.

If you need anything specific from me let me know and I'll get on it

I think it needs to be all put together to see if it fits. Then we can look to see what needs polishing up.

Gavin & Earman are not on line at the moment. Are we the only 4 involved at this time?

I think so, Charley is on holiday but I think the group is 5 in total which isn't a bad number, too many cooks in the kitchen and all that. A good enough number for different ideas and views but not too many and we can get to know each quite well too

feel free to post any work you've done here, thats the point of the thread guys I only put us in the smaller groups to make it more managable.

At the moment we are working on the end of the episode

well we know how episode starts but we need to pad it out with good dialogue because after Dev and Cat has been paired together we should have a scene showing Dev showing Cat the ropes so he shows her how he nets a soul while bending the rules. While this is happening there is a good exchange of dialogue. Once they finally click and she has got the geist of things we move onto the montage scene where she really gets into the bad spirit of things in a blackadder fun naughty way and then its the final soul they need to collect and I think we should tackle that after we've got the begining sorted because things we develope for the start will determine elements for the end

I can throw ideas and new light on things all day long but my weakness is dialogue so is dialogue a strong point of anyone here or do we need to recruit someone specifically for that?

I agree but also disagree the end it set, Charley plays the part of Catherine so the whole process is nonlinear and is being worked around her absence. If you do have any thoughts about the project please do pitch them in I'm not a complete dictator you know ;)
