Since LT1 is way too busy with Prophecy and life, I will be posting this update in his place. Just to tell you that despite the fact our site seems dead, we've been hard at work lately.
Random Fan: Quit stalling, WHAT ABOUT THE EPISODE?
I'm getting to that now. Anyways, it has yet to enter the editing phase, but we are definitely getting somewhere with it. I can't say any definite release dates yet because nothing ever turns out as planned (especially due to the nature of machinima), but I can estimate that you will have already seen it by the beginning of March.
Random Fan: Well, can you at least tell us about it?!?!
Yes you random unknown person, I will. I'm gonna keep it as spoiler free as possible, but I'm gonna say that there is a 100% chance of this episode being action packed. There will be a battle... correction: two battles at the same time! You will also get to see the other Spartans for the first time, and the previously unnamed Spartans will be named. As a bonus, I can show you a few screenshots.
To top things off, I interviewed Kieran Henshall of Pirate Bay Studios, who has been doing a bit of editing for Prophecy recently (as seen with last week's trailer). There was also an interview with AOD Deadite, but I could not get his interview answers in time.
F31: First and foremost, what is "Pirate Bay Studios", and what does it do?
KH: The people I know call it PBS for short, it was originally foudned in 2006 under the name of Lost Water Studios. By myself and a man called Andrew Dunkerly.
PBS is not a registered company, yet. It just consists of contacts who help out time to time. Though what we do varies from; Editing, Scriptwriting, Directing, Producing, Filming, PR, PA. We focus more on Television & Filmmaking than Machinima, although at the moment it's gotten the better of us.
F31: What is your role with the Prophecy project and the Blackstone Project?
KH: When the Director of Prophecy needs some extra publicity on his series, he sometimes contacts me asking for a trailer, some pieces of video media that will push the series more out there.
Currently I've been asked to:
[] Add Music to Episode 3
[] Edit Episode 4
I believe I'm editing Episode 4 because of a particular event that occurs. Last time we spoke, the Director felt I could bring a certain 'something' to the episode in comparison to the others. Also because he'd probably be busy with Blackstone.
F31: What can we expect from your current projects in the future? (With the 508th and with Pirate Bay Studios)
KH: I'm working on a Television plot with a few contacts from Los Angelis, South Wales [UK] & South Africa at the moment. The series is titled, Crisis,
In other news, I've been asked to develop my Machinima series for a television channel. So It seems I'll be busy on that soon.
F31: What programs do you use for what you do, and how long have you been at it?
KH:
Writing -
[] Final Draft, 3 Years
[] Microsoft Word, 9 Years?
CGI -
[] 3D Max, 1 Month
[] Lightwave, 1 Week
Editing -
[] Can't say,
[] Windows Movie Maker, 5 Years?
[] Sony Vegas 8, 3 Years
F31: Would you mind showing us some of your current work (if it isn't too spoilery?
KH: I'm afraid you'll have to wait and see like everyone else. =P
There'll be a Announcement Trailer for my series in a month from now. It will announce the forums and website that's under construction at the moment. Though maybe in the future I can provide you with sneak peaks if you want.
F31: To end things on a light note, do you like to party?
KH: Um, sometimes. Last time I had a party, I invited mates around on new years. I was chatting to my girlfriend at the time on MSN because she couldnt come. Then one of my mates pinned me down as the rest of them started looking for HONK!..
Apart from that.. Sure. =]
Kieran will have his official website out in the near future, I hope that LT1 will remember to include it in a future update. So that's all for this time folks, so stay tuned for Prophecy Episode 3, and Blackstone. See ya next week folks.
