I bet you're wondering why I made this topic in the fanfic forum. Well the reason is because I want to start a Harvest Moon movie, but I need a good storyline, plot, or fanfic to base it on. If anyone would want to contribute a new fanfic that they would like to see played out as a video, using sprites, music, voice actors, among other things, please let me know privately.
For the discussion part, those who don't want to write a fanfic are welcoem to post ideas here, or if you just want to discuss or ask questions about the movie, by all means.
Also, this movie is in the pre drawing board phase -- nothing has been set in stone to be made, that's why I am in need of input.
This is an open topic for discussion, let me know ANYTHING you have in mind. Even if you highly object to this idea, I want to hear it.
Thanks!

A sprite film huh? I've made a few of those. Maybe you've seen my series on Youtube, FamilyBound.
How are you doing it? Have you ever done one before?
I use WMM to animate still frames I create using the background and character sprites. If you need any help in the animation process, let me know.
I've actually considered this same project before. If I recall correctly, I even started this same basic thread here, but nobody was really interested in writing something for me.

A sprite film huh? I've made a few of those. Maybe you've seen my series on Youtube, FamilyBound. Haha, nice movie you have there. But yes, a sprite film. =) How are you doing it? Have you ever done one before? I use WMM to animate still frames I create using the background and character sprites. If you need any help in the animation process, let me know. I'm creating it in flash. It will look like your familyBound movie as far as the concept of a sprite movie, however it won't be as restrictive as yours. (the characters having a hard time moving, etc) All I can really say is that the quality will be like one of the higher ranked sprite movies on newgrounds. There's *absolutely no doubt* that if I can get a good storyline for this movie, it will be on the front page of newgrounds. I haven't made any similar movies for flash, not because I can't make a movie, but my problem time after time is that I don't have a good storyline and I throw it into the trash can. I've actually considered this same project before. If I recall correctly, I even started this same basic thread here, but nobody was really interested in writing something for me. That's the same problem I am facing so far... No one will write for you, but yet I see so many good fanfics. What I am thinking is that they don't believe the movie will be made so they turn down the offer. I don't blame them. Sure thing, and thanks! But for now I can't ask for any help other than writers due to how critical that is to this movie. No writers = no movie. I would hate to waste anyone's time planning for the other elements of this movie right now when I don't even have a skeleton to begin with. |

I wouldn't call my method restrictive so much as it's time consuming.
I can pretty much do anything (when it comes to sprite films, I mean) with still images and WMM as anyone can with flash, it just takes me longer.

What sort of story line were you looking for?

Anything that anyone is willing to write that could be used for a 15 minute or so Harvest Moon movie. This is pretty open ended, for someone who loves to write, this shouldn't be a problem. ;D Sorry for the late reply, Thanksgiving week out of town.  |

Would the story have to be written in script form?

It can be written in story or script form, I don't mind. If someone just wants to write a story, I can convert that into a script.  |
