Browncoat1, Klam, Grounded,
Thanks for all the kind words, we all really appreciate it and we're all huge fans of Firefly and everything Joss.

If anybody hasn't seen it yet, check out Episode 5 "Science Friction" as the gang goes to see "Serenity"

You're welcome :)

I've now downloaded and watched all the episodes in reverse order (don't ask me why). When I saw JD open the cabinet in ep 1 to decide which SMCs to watch I thought to myself "I wonder if he's got Gummi Bears in there?..." Cartoons that need to be referenced in future eps: Visionaries, Centurions.

Also, is that Optimus Prime up on the shelf in ep 6?

Thanks Guys,

Serenity Valley,
We use the latest version of Sony Vegas software for the eps. I highly recommend it for editing

Grounded,
Aw man, I remember both the Visionaries and Centurions, Those we're pretty great cartoons. We are definitely planning more cartoon themed episodes in the future and I would love to include those. That definitely was an Optimus Prime on the shelf, I believe its a collectors edition of some sort my buddy Mike paid $100.00 for it.

Vegas, huh? Does it make you render all the time? Because I hate that. I'm using Studio right now, which is fine as far as rendering, but the frame dropping during capture is ridiculous. I liked the effects you guys used in the credits sequence.

Good stuff. So, was that Warp 11 playing on the radio, when they threaten to tune out JD?

Serenity Valley,

We use Studio also, we noticed we we're losing frames when we used the usb but we changed to fire wire and we haven't had a problem with it since. maybe thats the difference i'm not sure. Are you a filmmaker also?

everyworldspinnin,

the music we use is from 3 bands primarily, Grimlock, Bombay, & Duke Puke. I haven't heard of Warp 11, i'll check them out on your recommendation. Thanks

Hmm. Well, my laptop doesn't have a firewire hookup, but I've been using the Dazzle Box. Lately I haven't had any dropouts. We filmed and edited yesterday without problems, but we take it in small chuncks. Yes, I've done some independent stuff. Anyone can take a look at some of my projects at:

It's not available for download, but there's some screencaps and stuff.

I sent your link to my parents, sci-fi lovers, and my mom actually laughed out loud at several parts of the episode she watched, which is weird for her, she says. Keep up the good work!

Serenity Valley,

I went to your website and checked it out, some cool stuff. When I have a bit more free time i'll pull down your screenplays and read them.

That's really cool, that your mother liked our series makes me feel good about what we're doing. Tell her thanks for me.
