What's the next step?

The next step would be getting a script I guess. I like the idea and think that it would be great.

So, do we contact authors of the best fanfics and ask if we can use their work, or do we let the authors come forward and write brand new stuff, or do we contact the authors of the best fanfics and ask them if they would like to produce a new script for the show? I'm kinda liking this idea. It sounded crazy, at first. Now it sounds like it really has some potential!

I wonder if any fans can impersonate the voices
(here or on other message boards).

I might be able to do a decent Jayne. I always wanted to be a voice actor (mostly cuz I'm ugly as sin). I always practice voices in the car to and from work, and I could probably do a pretty good job with the chinese.

OK, here's what I see we need to do to proceed:

1: keep talking. Here and on email. I'm at dugwho@excite.com.

2: decide how we want to do a script. Adapt/ write from scratch? I think our first try should be fairly short; 10-15 minutes.

3: Auditions to see if we's got people who can sound like REAL people. Audio shows work best if we focus on about 4-5 characters at a time (things get confusing with more), so we may be able to have multiple "episodes" for different character groups? Like Mal/ Zoe/ Jayne/ Wash and Inara/ Book/ Simon/ River.


And on my end, I need to get copies of all the episodes so I can pull sfx and music. Damned dialup; too slow to download. Suggestions?

Just a rather random thought here for the process, but perhaps for this radio show thought, we create a new crew, perhaps another ship out there, and do a lot of Firefly ties ins..

(spin off, I know.. but this way people don't feel bad when someone does a bad impersonation, and new characters can be created without Fox saying we violated them somehow...

Not a bad thought. I've pondered some on that too. We've got a whole 'verse to play in.

What do people think? We could name our ship "Fox Sucks".....

As far as voices I could do a decent mal or simon. Really wanna do wash. Ain't quite got the depth for book. So any young ladies out there who like to mumble unintelligible phrases, we need a river.
I have to say this whole idea is really sounding good. We should start with a shorter simple fan fic. Something strongly character based, not requiring too much in the way of FX. That one called A little R&R would be shiny. Not to mention we have to come up with some villians, and they can sound any way they want to. Here's the link for the R&R fanfics.

The spin-off crew sounds interesting. But man I love the original characters so much.
