Does anybody have any ideas of shows that they would like to see animated. I have spent 9 months modeling vehicles and scenes for this. I am trying to get set in the period of the war. Even though they all did not meet after, i am trying to get it to show how it all came together. Why did Shepard leave the Abby at that time. How did they Know about Wash and him being a pilot. They will be about 25 minutes per episode. I just need help getting ideas, so we can get it to storyboard.

I would like to hear what you have to offer. I will be uploading still thumbnails later on tonight to look at. They are of the town that I am developing for the project. Basically I have a town modelled, a small outpost for Browncoats, and a refuelling platorm to be modelled in the near future. Be aware there are no textures for any of these models yet. I will upload my pipeline on how this works if you need be.

From my understanding you want to basically do a Firefly Origins, right?
What did Mal and Zoe experience in the war?
How did they meet wash?
How did they meet that guy that was doing Kaleey?
What is the truth about Shepard?
How did they get in to that run in with Jayen and his crew?
What happened with River and Simon before they joined the crew?

I think between the two of us we should decide how we want to go about introducing them and explaining their stories. Because for the most part it was Mal and Zoe and no one else before the series. Simon and River were off on their own (and Shepard was probably following them for a while, seeing how hes most likely alliance)

Wash, Jayen and the mechanic guy didn't come in until much later in the story.
There was also that guy who faked his own death that would have traveled with Mal and zoe for some time.

maybe we can chat over MSN messanger or Yahoo messanger, if you have them and we can brainstorm ideas.
If you would like to read a script of mine I wrote on ww2 for an indie director I'll let ya read that.

This is interesting. I was wondering if there were any other modelers and/or animators on the forum.

I'm working on an animated movie that takes place in the Verse. It's a different crew but they're on a Firefly. Anyway, I've been writing the script, designing stuff, and building models for a while now. Most of my time has been spent on the script. I'm about 35 pages into it now.

Anyway, it would be cool to have a thread where those that are working on projects like this could talk and post stuff if they want. Heck, we might could even share models in return for a modeling credit in the finished movie. I'm building some Firefly interior sets. I would have no problem at all sharing the models with others that need them.

I love that we as fans are able to keep the Verse alive as well. Whether you're an artist or a writer or whatever. Being able to provide fans with material to see, read, or hear is awesome!

That is great to see other modelers on board.

I have designed some Structures for my Movie.

I am using:
Autodesk Maya 8.5- for modeling and animation
Lightwave 3D - modeling organic characters then completing them in Maya
Renderman -Well Rendering
Maxon Bodypaint- For the textures
Combustion for compositing, I really want to get into Final Cut Studio and Shake but haven't had the time to learn them yet.

Here is the site i setup with a friend of mine. It is a simple site, it was only designed to exchange information between each other. If it gets to the point were we get a lot of visitors, then I will need to setup an official site. I hope you enjoy.

Nice. You got some nice models there. Here's one I'm working on.

I like the interior model, very nice. What are you using to create it? What modeling package?

Are you trying to recreate Serenity?

I haven't gotten to any ships yet. I have been concentrating on Set Production. Mostly the shots you are seeing. I am currently working on Fueling Platform, where a lot of the beginning action takes place. About 3 minutes into it Alliance soldiers will be conducting a raid on the platform. They are going to use the platform as a foothold to gain access and control the outpost. As soon as I am done with the basic model I will post it up.

Again, outstanding work on your model. Also if you have any ideas for a script let me know. I have the first 10 minutes down, but after that I have nothing.

Basically it starts out the Alliance starts off the war with a Raid on this outpost. This outpost was essential and strategic to them. It was a communications outpost that had to taken out in order to have a surprise attack. After the attack, yep I am out of ideas.

hey I've got a question for you. Are any of these images going to be quality enough to composite with live action? I'm looking to put together a live action movie in the verse but I haven't got the modeling skills to do the 3d animations I'll need for space scenes and possibly some computer fly-bys.

Your models look great by the way. Very thorough.

When there are no heroes where will we turn?
