TFC and Pico Day

Posted by Winzra - April 21st, 2012


(Sorry for the long post)
First wanted to give a shout out to Tom for helping us every step of the way. Yay, go Tom!

1. Hooray! We were finally able to release the Kick Starter page. We have been working on it for a while and it's cool to see that the wheels are finally coming into motion. Even though we've completed a good amount for the project to set the stage for filming, there is still much to do and knowing that the NG community is behind us only invigorates us that much more to make you guys proud.

Speaking of the community; some of you have already been offering your services to help out on the project and that's great! A big goal we had in mind for "The Forsaken City" was to make sure that it was a series that felt more like it "belonged" to the community that has been faithful to NG, and with that were looking to possibly incorporate as much help from the community as we can afford.

So if you feel this is a project you might be interested in working on, please check out future updates that will address this!

2. Pico day is coming and while we are all set to go, we still haven't gotten any reservation for a hotel. We've gotten some nice recommendations but we were wondering if there is anyone going to Pico Day who needs a couple of bunk buddies or wants to share a room with us to split the cost. Please let us know ASAP! : <

3. Hans did a pre-interview with Chase about TFC. They actually get into some cool concepts like the logistics behind certain shots of well known movies and share their thoughts as well on the current social state of the industry. If your a movie buff at all I would recommend giving it a watch. Check it out here (I think it actually starts around the 18 minute mark).

4. I wanted to do just a quick section maybe on my posts were I can post some users that I personally want to highlight, so lets give it a shot.

- Hans Van Harken: I don't really know this guy too much (maybe we'll meet at Pico day) but he posted a website recently where he writes some really neat articles and after watching that interviews he gave I have become very interested in his work past his actual animations and stuff (which you all know are awesome, duh!). He just comes off as a very pensive type of person which is a breath of fresh air to other streamers and bloggers that are saturated on the internet today.
- Odell Atkinson: A voice actor I've worked with a couple of times. If you need any voice work done give him a shot, hes a very professional/timely guy!
-Broove: This is one of the artists we used for the song in the kickstarter, really dig his style.
- DarthDuba: And here is the other one!

Okay I won't make it that bloated for now, we'll see if people hate this thing or not.

That about does it, thanks for everything guys and thanks for supporting TFC, just because you don't pledge/donate doesn't mean your not helping, just by watching our page your SUPPORTING US/NEWGROUNDS; see ya later WHOOSH!

TFC is going to change the way we look at Newgrounds forever. There's my two cents out of the dollar I've been allowed permission to exchange. It's going to be incredible.

You guys look pretty young in the video on your kickstarter page, so assuming your profile age is correct, you're pretty talented for such young fellows. That's so promising for your futures. I am wishing you luck on this project and on all future projects. The people who are offering up their pearls of wisdom about how what you made "really isn't that great" couldn't make anything NEAR as good themselves. Your ideas and concepts are wonderful as well so I encourage you to continue with this idea, don't drop it and let someone else take it. I'd love to see a video game based on your idea also, so if this works out the way you plan, make sure you have all your legal ducks in a row. How great that would be both for you and the Newgrounds community. I don't get paid until the end of the month, but I'll be tossing some kickstarter money yall's way. I see a great deal of potential in this project.

@SevenSeize - Wow man, your words are humbling. Thank you so much! We have no intention of passing this torch on! We love NG and we love story telling. Your support is invaluable! Thank you man!

@ Eiomaru I'm a chick :-) But you're welcome, please keep us updated on your progress and ignore the negative folks.

@SevenSeize - :D Sorry m'lady! An unfair generalization! Our only hope is that they see what we can do and enjoy it :)

damn dude- that trailer looks awesome - i cant wait to check it out - - i definitely think this project needs WAY more promotion on NG
