SNG Project Rise of the Sith

Greetings, Daniel aka Darklord of the Sith aka Darth_Andeddu here,

I?ve mentioned around mid-year that I would be making a fanfilm called Rise of the Sith nearing Christmas.

Of course, any of you who don?t know what this is please refer here.

I am putting out a call to Star Wars fans of Singapore to give their support and help in making this project a reality.

So far, a number of people have pledged their support to this project:
1) GetzJedi (Acting)
2) Hobbes00 (Choreography)
3) Mercurio (Acting and choreography)
4) Xeno_Kenobi (Props)
5) Yazid_Skywalker (Acting)

I am putting up calls for actors and crew, so feel free to choose whatever position you want, as long as it?s not taken up. I really need many actors?in fact, if possible, all Jedi, whether Light or Dark, as there will be huge battle scenes in gardens.

What I said still apply: this is nonprofit and is for the love and passion of Star Wars. Also, I do not intend to clash with the existing Star Wars fanfilms going on and if those involved in them would like to join in this too, you are welcome.

There is also a Project Forum (http://s13.invisionfree.com/rise_of_the_sith) where those involved can sign up and be informed of any happenings.

If you have any queries, please be liberal with my email (thelorddarthvader@gmail.com) or my MSN (the_dark_one_00@hotmail.com)

i can act but i'm not sure about the role. either kritster or jonus skaer.

 

Well...Jonus Skaer is friend of Destin and has to turn on him towards the end when Destin fell to the dark side. Meaning, he's loyal to his friends and will do whatever he can to help them, even if it means killing them. He, however, has little screen time.

Kritser is harsh and will do whatever he can, even banishing them or exerting torture, to ensure the ideals of the Jedi Order are upheld. This is evident when he scarred Destin in the end of the movie. He has a lot of screen time but is killed, however.

It really matters about which character suits you more so as to bring reality to your character.

Also, sign up in the project forum so we can discuss more there.

 

any info on my character?

 

Well, generally, he is a swordsman with skills almost unrivaled in the Jedi Temple. Unfortunately, he died while protecting the Jedi Grand Master.

 

jonus skaer i shall be.

 

Cool.. A noble death i hope haha. Oh i can't wait

 

hey dude, i must say this beforehand. My schedule will be very tight on that time period cos i got school. I hope i wun cause u any trouble with scheduling and stuff. I'm all for the film but u'd either have to bare with me with my timing problems or get another guy. Better now than later.

-peace out

 

Eh... So... I'm supposed to die in one scene, reappear in another, run from left to right to create a battle scene, talk to myself... Bro, how am I supposed to act as Sith TrooperS??? You using CGI?

 

Yep...there's gonna be some minor chroma-keying that allow us to do cloning of one person ...

 

Too bad I'm not supposed to be paid... Would have demanded for multiple pay checks...

 

Hahahahah!!
The cheek of some people... LOL!
Just kidding... good one, TIE guy!

 

I assumed Temuera Morrison got multiple paychecks den... how many hundred thousands was it?

 

Production Diary now up!
