Closing Note

Concept of the intro changed 10 times since creation of that task.
Done.

Description

The first scene of the movie will be a prologue which explains how Pirk conquered the world. The first part of it will show a news from a nen conquered part of world. It will not be propaganda.
The propaganda comes in the second part of the prologue.

We need some pictures from around the world showing the action. Basically we need some back grounds in which we will insert the Poktustart and the rest of the P-Fleet/Russian army.
We need picture of well known places arround the world, like the Eifeltower, Big Ben or the Brandenburger Gate, but other landmarks or nice picture are welcomed.

It is also possible to have actors in the clip looking at the stuff happening or running away in panic. If you want to do such stuff, please contact use so we can give further advice how to properly record it.

I have attached a PDF containing the specification how to record the footage, so we can use it without problem and in best quality.

First We Take Berlin

Today I set out on a little field trip to get some footage of the Brandenburg Gate and Reichstag using a Canon EOS 7D. After schlepping a full-steel tripod through half of Berlin in scorching heat, I noticed the head was missing a screw and couldn't be locked properly >_<

Also, the sky was perfectly blue without high clouds, which means no tracking possible. So I figured it'd be best to just record some locked footage where you can expand the sky and then animate the pan yourself, maybe slapping some fish eye effect on top which always looks great ^_^

The Brandenburg Gate was totally overcrowded because of the World Cup and the "Fan Mile" (a huge public viewing area/loony bin) so I just took some photos where the Potkustart can roar overhead, then you can cut to the Reichstag which would be Pirk's target for the takeover anyway ^_^

Thierry, I'll send you the videos through sendspace later today.

Signing Off,

ps: The shots were taking during the game Switzerland Vs Spain which seems to have been a good omen ;D

There's strong and there's P-Fleet

I think that the videos that Gert-Jan suggested for the Wreckamovie commercials could be good inspiration for Star Wreck 2pi as well. Not the prologue maybe, but a nice recruitment ad for P-Fleet that could be used in promotion and it could be very funny too. Check it out:
