| bawww i wasn't exactly thinking anything historical when i said "history would be crammed into the human brain" First off I don't mean the history of the human race, I mean the history and philosophies of the entire world + galaxies, etc.. And tho the history of the world can fit into someone's brain, how many people do you know has the complete knowledge of every thing in history? Not too many people can grasp all the information cuz the average brain can't handle all the information. Why do you think it takes years of classes for us to learn history? Cuz it's a LOT of information. baah it's kinda easier with a visual explanation. Here's kind of what I'm going after: http://www.onemanga.com/Full_Metal_Alchemist/23/28/ Start from here and keep reading til page 35. This is a scene in FMA where knowledge is being forced into Edward's head. Just observe his reaction. it's pretty much where i got the idea from As you can see, edward was screaming in pain as all the knowledge was crammed into his brain. And the dude was only showing him a sample of "true knowledge" so what if the COMPLETE knowledge was crammed into someone's brain? It'd surely be too much to handle, and their brains would start to bleed. |

| OMG I LOVE MORITA-SAN FROM HONEY AND CLOVER!!!! EKKKKKKK!!! (its like hubbie #14!!!!) can sherri not have orange hair? i have always hated the characters with orange hair (orhime from bleach, shirley from code geass) could she have black hair? i no thtll b annoying to ink but i think it would b a really dramatic difference if her hair turns from black 2 white in mico.... (i 4get wat its called) mode. i kinda feel dis story has been done b4 in a way, or a least tht its familiar, from stuff like Chuck on NBC, or FMP, and sum books ive read tht i cant remeber the title of... idk i would like it writemore but i g2g... i'll rite it later... |
 |
| lawl maybeeee red-ish orange but i dunno about black because i was planning for vincent to have black hair so 2 people with black hair looks kinda weird o_O;;; and i'm pretty sure the story hasn't been done before, but i'm sure there's something similaaar :P but most of the story will focus on vincent + sherri's high school life, all the SciFi and Mecha stuff is to add a little drama 8D '' |
| Slowly but surely Sidrah's story is forming to a dbz'ish type of story...angry baby... with special powers....acuatlly this is exactly the same character from warioware XD wow |
| I LOVE YUKINO from kare kano!!! shes awsome. :) and i like the idea. its good. we need to figure out a name for little mind chips programmy robot-thing. and we do need more info about vincent if they are both main characters. cuz now it seems like sherri is the main character. BUT I LOVE IT. :)...and i still think that sherri should be happy and like you said most the time, but that in the mornings she rly moody and basically the oposite, as an effect from chips and headache. ould provide a comical scene. :) LIKE NO LOVE IT. :) |
| oh and also the whole killing people with minds person who came from an army institute and going on a killing spree but gets a friend and a life, has already been done. the idea we have isnt as extreme as the manga im thinking of. (forgot manga name, dangit 0.o) but yeah so we gotta be careful on how we go about hte whole mind killing thing. and also, it seems that the horror is kinda taking a back seat ot everything else. so we gotta remeber tht. and also. i think that wen she is having halucinations she should see the people that she killed sometimes and have them be all like zombie or like deja vu. i think she should see dead people. (haha "i see dead people" quote !!) but yeah. just an idea |
| I was being silly with my brain report, but how could anyone but God (sorry about anyone else's faith) have I "mean the history and philosophies of the entire world + galaxies" since there is no mention of space travel or meeting aliens then like yeah how do the people in the institute get all the information? |
| wats dbz??? O.o n wat i mean of when i say the story seems familiar is tht it does... i just cant remeber wat like when i was reading ur storyline i was basicailly like saying in my head wats gonna happen next n thts exactly wat u wrote... do u no wat i mean? like when u said the dad was all power hungry i thought it was obvious tht he would over use sherri's power in the future n like when u said vincent was gonna sleep over i imediantly guess tht he would c the micro chip go in her head n figure out who she is n i also think its obvious tht sherri is gonna be all like ahhhh i cant trust any1 anymore, it just kind of seems typical (no offense 2 ur story line) idk it just seems like a story line where u can guess wat happens next easially, i always liked those story like tht seem really plan n simple n then BAM its crazy! n ur like yelling NOOOOO or YESSSSSSSS or AAAAAAAAHHHHHH or just like WTF..... u no wat i mean? or do i just sound crazy? like in tsubasa it starts off just going to different countries 2 collect memories n then BAM *spoiler* {syaron has a evil twin tht was actually him n bla blablalba... fai a vampire blablabla}... n ur just like WTF!!?! its stuff u dont expect at all. n i think tht our storyline isnt really like tht. |

| ohhh hahah dragon ball z i totally knew tht (actually i didnt i was like dbz... hmmm.. dbz... i should no dis) |
| |
| :D its cool. :) |
| !Important! we gotta come up with a solid decision on the 4koma like...by tomorrow. if anyone has ideas, please shout, because the 4koma should have a slight priority than the actual manga. we have to send it to the jagwire by this Wednesday :/ Sidrah: LOL actually, you're right it's pretty predictable now that i think of it again. Maybe we'll revise some parts to make it less predictable but it's kinda hard to because we made those events specifically so they'd tie directly into vincent's story lol Jordan: of course no one knows the REAL answers to the history... but there are certainly a ton of philosophies of the entire world + galaxies ... and there are a lot of theories. it doesn't have to be precise information, cuz information is information :P Jon put this in his post, but i didn't really enforce it. the centered the story around year 2050 so there's bound to be lots of theories :P Oh and try not to joke around a lot cuz i actually bothered to read and comprehend that whole paragraph because i can't help but take everyone's idea's seriously... Candice: yay~! cept to be honest, me and jon kinda BS'd the whole military fight when sherri goes around killing people. we're still working on how it should actually go, but we at least got a rough draft of part of the story done. |

| I do like Sidrah's idea of black to white except reverse it, so its white normally and black in (DESTRODICATE BRAIN MODEZZ!!) so you would have a Yin and Yang type feel. Also a good setup for what that military base could be based off of is F.E.A.R. If anyone has played that game you should know how Alma just walks through the place killing everyone, that's what we should go for.

| hey~! hey~! i know this may be a little late, but Michael Davis forgot his MAL account so he asked me to put up his story idea >:3 here it is: Plot- In the future of an alternative reality where music has become the basis for almost all life to circle around techno and Rock have risen above the rest to become the corner stones of the music world. Because the war between these two forces got to powerful hey began to reach to the stars for a better advantage. It is here where the war it at its worst. Causing great death almost every battle. They live on 2 separate space stations on the side of the moon. they techno people are lead by their all knowing tech. A man made of the technology they love so much, but still has the heart of a man. The rockers are led by the acoustic mystics. who teach the way of rhythm and harmony and live by it. Each though strive to reach the final state where they become one with music. For if music can unite people of different places. to be one with it is to be able to connect and share yourself with all. unknown to them though is that one man is alive who is closer to this than either side. HE is "the chosen" and he makes his way secretly through the bases trying to unite them in his music. A combination of both rock and techno which could bring the war to an end, if only he was able to spread his message. [If you can, ask Michael about it, not me ^___^] |
| *twitching* I just... read 4 pages of forum post @_@ *twitch* Anyway, awesome story. I love the story, it's something I can totally draw easily yet complex. I would totally help out. But the same time, it such a awesome story that I just can't believe that we're gonna do a 4koma format, really. sevenfoldgates - techno all the way! |
     |
| ok well i finished the 4 koma part i got like 2 hrs ago. so i hope everyone likes it tomara. :)... i made two veresions, my version and the versions tht is closer to lisas draft. (left it plain) |
HERE BE THE MANGA IDEAS... someone please refine this post Background characters! They’re also important. • After Sherri gets betrayed: Go insane, but be happy, berserk, and a mass killer Or become more sad, and depressed and traumatized • Sherri dies in the end- for drama, sadness, to hook the reader right at the end. • AO makes Sherri2 • Shouldn’t know about power- if having strong emotion (anger), power activates! • Over time, power goes up (time, intensity, less cool down) • After Sherri goes crazy, Vincent researches AO and finds out their intentions- decides what to do from there • Hallucinations -> Byproduct of nanobot tampering • *Villain: Should also have a computer hooked up-> but to her heart, NOT HER BRAIN. Different power, same concept. But the evil person is a YOUNG CHILD (about 5 years old)* Sherri Prototypes: They’re a big buncha bad people Fighting , Sherri v Baddie: Mind fighting • If Sherri goes crazy, Vincent should be forced to kill her • Hallucinations make Sherri go over the edge • Humor: Light, happy, based on character personality – between Sherri and Vince’s romance (a la LoveCom) • First chapter is straight high school life and humor • Relationship is OBVIOUS from the get go • Vincent’s job – Later on, Vincent watches over Sherri as a Subject. • Death of her dad (after he goes insane) – drives her over the brink • If she goes crazy in her head, the computer goes out of control, giving her powers indefinitely • Hallucination: she “sees” herself killing Vince and Osmond, makes her goes CRAAAAAZY • Like Full Metal Panic • Father commits suicide? • Father goes so insane, he asks Sherri to kill him – because he wants to obtain all knowledge • Third party force – One guy works for both sides – to take info from both sides • AO and MiND team up to take down Crazy Sherri, Vincent kills her at the end – Sherri feels betrayed by everyone When they team up, they do because after Sherri takes down Anti-Sherri, they realizes she’s too powerful They might also kill Vincent • Rival: Vincent takes his technology after he realizes AO is betraying everyone, makes a reverse Sherri – Stops and wipes the mind • Sherri will still have her powers somehow • After she kills her dad, Sherri will see Vincent and her power starts working on him… slowly. In the end, they both die. • FINAL FINAL scene: Show it at the very beginning, but keep out information. • She kills Vincent, looks in mirror, kills herself She sees Vincent, she blinds herself so she can’t killhim She sees him, hugs him, wants to go back to the old times, Vincent kills both of them. |

| My idea using everyone else ideas (excuse me and my bad English skills): Where did you guy left off.... *thinking* This is the part when Sherri's dad tries to kill Vincent at Sherri's house because, well because Vincent found out that Sherri is a human weapon (duh) They start to have a fight; Sherri dad trying to shoot Vincent's ass. Sherri dad WILL shoot Vincent ass because he's a lunatic at this point even if he knows that Vincent is Sherry's friends. With all the noises and gun shootings, of course Sherri is going to wake up. She slowly goes down stair and peek/sneak what's happen. This is where she see vincent and her daddy fight. She overhear them talking (while fighting) about Sherri. "This" is when she discover that she's a living walking weapon. She break the fight screaming about she feel betray and other shiet. She than runs out of the house from emotional shock and other emotion shiets. At this point, she is emotionally unstable. She's getting flashback of memory when she was in Berserk mode and other stuff you guys wanna plug in. Than suddenly she meets her counterpart (that 5 yrs old villains) The counterpart use her power but because Sherri is the same as the other girl, it effected a little (maybe a big migraine of doom!). But with that, the counterpart knows that she IS project 24229. Sherri is like, "no, i'm not that" going into the state of denial and traumadize. This is when she turn berserk with so much emotional stress and so much damage to her brain. This is when we have that epic battle!!! (fun stuff) While they are having their cool epic battle, Vincent goes back to his home quarter and search the truth about the project and how he can protect her and shiet. and the same time, the father get a call from the institution that project 24229 is getting out of hand and he goes back to the institution. NOW I have two ending for this, okay! (1) Vincent discover that Sherri is having a epic battle with the counterpart that his organization created. They're all like... killing civilian around them cause that's part of the epic battle, right? Vincent is now desperate to save Sherri. He then found a unfinished product of a lazer-gun (or whatever weapon of choice) that does the opposite effect that of project 24229; cleansing the mind of emptiness. He takes it and goes to the battle field of epicness. At this point, I don't care HOW epic you guys make of the epic battle between Sherry and her counterpart because we know Sherry gonna win (yay!) When Sherri killz the counterpart, she goes berserk and start killing random people. She than see Vincent in a distant. Although she hate him because he betrayed her and shiet (by now, she know everything about herself) , she still loved him. Even though she doesn't want to hurt Vincent, she can't control her power. Before he get closer to Sherri, She stab her eyes with a rock (or something else) on the floor. Vincent rush toward her crying out loud why she did that. This is where we get the mushy stuff, talking about how Sherri doesn't want this to be reality and want to go back to the old day and Vincent agreeing with her and shiet. He then shoot her with that cool ray gun. ((gosh, it sound better in my head)) now for the father dude, we can't forget about him right? Well the institution is now fucked. mass killing and shiet, of course the government is not gonna support them anymore and heck, arrest them ass!!! So he stand there and... you guys will do that part out whether he feel regrets or laugh like a maniac. now we take the ending a nice one where you see Vincent with Sherri, being all affectionate toward Sherri while Sherri is now literally..... back to a baby Somewhere in a hospital scenery or outside. You girls can do the ending yourself, be cute with it <3 Okay, my second idea: (2) Vincent and Sherri dad is like, running around looking for Sherri. While Vincent is running, he's thinking about all the bad things happen and be like "I don't care who she is, I still love Sherri" or something like that. Sherry dad find Sherry far away from the epic battle. He's thinking some weird shiet how he created the ultimate weapon and stuff.(copy&paste) I don't care HOW epic you guys make of the epic battle between Sherry and her counterpart because we know Sherry gonna win (yay!) When Sherri killz the counterpart, she goes berserk and start killing random people. The moment she see Vincent, her anger cool down. Looking at the person she know/love, she realize what she have done; mass killing people. She exit her berserk mode, runs toward vincent, hug him and start crying. They talk about how they want to go back how it was use to be and more flash back talking. Vincent takes out his gun and say some corny stuff to Sherri how it's going to be alright and that it will be normal again. He than shoot behind Sherri, killing both of them. (remember, he's still hugging her xD ) and then we end it like that, giving the audience a mind rape. meh, all of this really look better in my head >_>;; fak |

| well im not really talking about the ending rite now (it can change as we go) but rite now i just wanna say I REALLY DONT WANT SHERRI 2 HAVE ORANGE HAIR sorry, but i just hate tht color on girls, n if u want her 2 look like the simple girl, no simple girl has orange hair unless if the bleach it n if she bleaches it then shes no longer simple! i think tht black may be a bit extreme on sherri so it doesnt have to b black (+ tht would b a pain inking) but i think lite brown would b nice... also when she like uses her power i dont think her changing hair n eye color would b enough 2 look different, i mean wouldnt vincent b like she kinda looks like sherri? so i was thinking somthing like in rouni kenshin where ummm wats his name (the dude tht was the little bro of kenshins former lover) anyway when he fought all his nerves stuck out in his skin, i think u should do the same with sherri (or sumthing like tht). cuz other wise she would still look semi normal. cuz hey i mean dis is the future n there must b ppl getting weird contacts n hair colors all the time. |
| |
| HAHAHA, you're so funny! I do admit, the orange hair and the pin kinda remind me of Orihime from BLEACH not that I dislike her, just seem similar. I think light brown will look better. But we can discuss that later cause.... the manga is gonna be black and white, right? You don't need to worry about the color latter <3 Also for the changing color shiet. I think the hair color SHOULDN"T change. I think that be over board. Now for the eye, that be cool if it change eyes color or even something else like Sasuke from Naruto ps: OMFG, RUROUNI KENSHIN~ |
|
| Helen: t I LOVEEEE the second ending. cuz it's more romantic and you can put lots and lots of emotions in it and it's a super satisfying ending x3 I can imagine vincent saying those cheesy words as he's hugging sherri...it'll be all grey skys, but they're hugging each other for the longest time... he slowly looks up at the sky and tears start falling from his eyes as he hugs her... then... he shoots her q_q KYA that'd be the best ending <3333 but the first ending seems to extremeeee q_q;; sherri stabbing her eyes just seems too extreme q_q so my vote is totally on the second ending~ Sidrah: Lawl, you have some kind of red head phobia XDDD i think light brown will be fine, it'll look really cute :] kinda like nagisa but a lil brighter. and no funky colors like purple or green cuz you just can't take the character seriously ewwww nerves sticking out of skin sounds yucky but we can think about it xD i wanna say that nerves can stick out of the corners of her eyes, but then i though, omg that's just like neji from naruto. we still need to make her look different somehow when she goes into killing mode... i dunno how tho q_q;; |
| oh yaaa, next Wednesday we're gonna get jammin on the first chapter we're gonna go in depth with how the first chapter goes [such as dialouge and events]. after that, we'll do a quick run through of what happens after that and TRY to hit a climax. I say we don't start drawing until we have a good idea of how the ENTIRE manga goes. cuz i mean at this point we got an ending worked out, all we gotta do is the in-betweens XD i wanna aim for a 40 page first chapter. That's how long first chapters usually are. Then after that, it'll be 20 pages per chapter. I think it's possible. We have like... a lot of artists. it can be done :P Of course, I have a feeling we'll spend like a month, if not, the whole summer on the first chapter @____@ we just gotta keep in good contact with each other :] of course, we gotta leave time to talk about how the rest of the story goes and how we're gonna tell it. so i say we come up with ideas for the first chapter right now ;] i have some ideas but i'll type it all up later. btw- i'm really lovin the progress of the manga XD |
melancholyApr 29, 2009 5:20 PM
| Yay, that's good to hear xD Haha! I think we should work on the manga during lunch or after school. and heck, if we don't finish it when school is over, we can totally meet up someone home xD that be SO MUCH FUN~ of course you have to include the pain of working xD We also need to see who's REALLY going to draw the manga xD I know for sure that candice, you and I will work on it. If people want to help a little can be assistance (as in lineart and toning) as for the lineart, I think it should be done traditional because it's 10x faster than doing it on the computer (I know, trust me) even if we make mistake, we can totally photoshop the error later. and of course the tone will be done on the computer (cause tone cost alot of money, so might as well cheat the way through) Oh, this is going to be alot of fun and sweat!! I really want to leave high school with a good memory <3 |
|
| Yes meeting during lunch is a definite! But I think before we start meeting up during lunch or meet up at each other's houses, we should first write a complete draft of the story from start to finish. that way we know what we're aiming for XD One of the things I know we need to get done is character designs x3. I try to get in contact with the other artists who are interested in coming up with the character designs, but by the next meeting I would like to see some character designs for Sherri and Vincent :3. You can make them look however you want, and during the club meet, we'll vote ... or find a way to combine all the character designs xD Of course, I'm gonna start drawing some character designs and posting it on here :D We also need some designs for the mechas. I'll draw some and post what I had in mind for the mechs, but everyone else can feel free to post anything they had in mind :] I'll come up with a calendar of events / things we need to get done so we stay on task and get things done in an orderly fashion :3 [lawl, i'll do that as soon as i get back from singing lessons!] |
| Manga Calendar Keep in mind this might be unrealistic and things might change, but this is what I'm aiming for :P

melancholyMay 2, 2009 9:32 AM
| im not totally red-head-phobic i just dont like it on girls... with a few exceptions such as makoto in kanon (*tears* my wife) or ariel from the little mermaid (lol) i like it on guys like ichigo from bleach or kyo from fruits basket or the twins in OHSHC..... anyway getting bac on topic..... in the first chapter u should also c a bunch of sherri's non military "normal" friends ok so for side characters dis is how i c it.... well u no how u kinda want sherri 2 b normal (n im guessing vincent will be kinda normal 2) well i want their freinds to b crazy like they r the normal ones while their friends r just crazy ok so im thinking there should be a friend thts total punk (boy or girl) but they have to be totally hott n dont u think it would b fun to draw sum1 thts punk (just think nana) this is a character tht i REALLY want to be in dis (they should have a lot of piercings like a lip piercing attached to a ear peircing like shin<3333) there should be a pretty boy just cuz there always has to be either a pretty boy or a manly girl one other of her freinds should have a weight probllem... im not saying to make her really fat, but just over weight, like clearly larger than everyone else in their friend group (it'll b easy 2 make jokes around dis character whenevr food is involved ) n plus ive never seen a fat girl anime character tht not really fat... u no? A really big manly guy, cuz their always has to be a big manly guy oooo n like a emo-ish chick.... like when u see her u think theres sumthing clearly wronge with her life.... when actually theres nothing.... (basicailly my description of wat i wanted sherri 2 b like in the begining) these r a lot of characters n we probably wont use them all (or any of them.. *tears*) but yea.... i want the PUNK ONE!!!! (just cuz they r gonna b hott wheater its a girl or a guy... eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek) |
| |
| queenwafflegirl - Oh you, you just want hot character, am I right? xD Haha, of course we love hot character but in the end..... there aren't many hot people in the world >_>;Maybe just 2 or three of them. The rest should be NORMAL! and no worry, we'll add that hot punk kiddo for you <3 melancholy - Fak, I be out of school for the last meeting xD i'll just sneak in school or something xD haha! Yes, it be awesome if you can scan in your character design <3 Such as school uniform and sherri hair pin, those are somearea that I need to see >w<; but yhes, alot of lunch or afterschool meeting so that we can finish this joint up! and HOLY CRAP 8 vol?!?! |
|
| wooooots for drawing and artwork. :) |
| Sidrah: lawl i can go with a hot punk guy that keeps hiting on sherri and then vincent gets all jealous lulz. but i dun want to have TOO many side characters unless they have a significant role with the plot >_<;;; but we'll see 8D Helen: RAWR why do you have to be a senior q___q!!! lawl, i was planning to make the first few chapters over the summer then finish the rest of it throughout the next school year 8D. by then we should hit 6-8 volumes, amirite? |
| It's decided, we'll have a HOT PUNK side character xD lol~ and the rest of the peep gotta be normal xD meep~ Of course i'll try to work with the anime club as long as possible xD Untill I move up to baltimore ;-; grrr~ When the manga is done, which should be done by next year, you guys gotta give me a copy or something xD Haha! kasfglargblw *dies* |
|
| YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY HOT PUNK CHARACTER!!!!! i can rest in peace now kehehehe o but can there b the girl thts a bit over weight be in it 2??? im sick of all anime characters being unbelievably skinny.. |
| |
| lol, be happy dammit xD *pat on the head* Well, it really depends on the artist. "some" artist interpret over weight lil different xD lol~ Well, I guess we can put them in there. But remember, the story isn't about all characters but the focus should be on Vincent and Sherri <3 btw, how are we going to make the manga? Will it be done traditional, digital or both? We gotta think about those crappy stuff <3 |
|
| Okay, me and Jon have made this decision together. This is final, please don't argue against us. Before Wednesday, we, the active posters on the forums, will come up with a base idea of how the first chapter should go. During the meeting, we'll present the base idea and hope that people will put in their ideas, but not take over what we came up with. We're gonna type up everything we came up with in the club, and from there, Jon and I have decided that Sidrah will type up the the script of the first chapter. Sidrah was chosen, not because we love Sidrah and she's our best friend, but she's most defiantly the ONLY script writer who actively posts on the forums and doesn't BITCH AT US BEHIND OUR BACKS. If you're bitching at us, we hear about it, so don't think you can get away with it. We are told ALL THE TIME about these particular people who complain about their ideas being ignored.... then go off and say extremely rude things about us -_-. If you were REALLY mature, you'd be able to share your ideas and KNOW that it might get rejected cuz there's SO many ideas that get thrown at us. We're sick of hearing your complaints, and if all you do is complain, of course we don't want you to help us out. At this point, we're just REALLY pissed. Especially because the people who complain that ideas didn't get across didn't even tell us their ideas AT ALL and don't post on the forums. We're not gonna be nice and let our script be written by kids who won't grow up and take this professionally. If there's ANYONE who should be complaining, it should be me and jon because we spent HOURS outside of the club trying to organize this damn manga, run the meetings, and hell, get all you guys to otakon FOR FREE. Think about it. If the manga, the meetings, hell, the club was run by anyone else it wouldn't have been nearly as successful and efficient. Think about all the anime clubs the collapsed within the first year. Did they get off their damn asses to raise money for the club, or even think about making a manga as a group?? Even though we do all this work, you're the ones complaining at US??? Excuse me? With that aside, we believe Sidrah has a good grasp of what we want from the first chapter, humor wise and romance wise [the honey and clover + lovely complex style]. The first chapter will be more of a high school comedy chapter, and Sidrah has seen a lot of this. She also has more of the drive to write up the first chapter, and we know she'll get it done without complaints. |

| btw - we'll rotate script writers every chapter :P as the directors, jon and i decide who writes what chapters based on what the chapter is about and what ideas the scriptwriter has contributed. as for artists, i'm still trying to figure out a way to coordinate everything so that the artwork stays consistent without the same person drawing everything @___@;; for the mecha, i'm thinking something not to heavy and hard to draw. Something that looks slim, original, yet fairly simple to draw. By slim, I mean something like this or this I think jon and i will talk about how the mecha will look. he'll describe and provide examples, i'll attempt to draw XD |

| oOoO bitches already? Gwaaad, how did that happen? xD Haha! I like the idea of switching writer each chapt. especially since the manga we're creating is going to transit from comedy/romance to horror/tragedy. Sidrah would probably do best at the beginning of the chapter cause she's all about COMEDY. Gosh, I love you sid-rwar~ but as the story progress, we probably wanna switch it to someone who's more into the shonen shiet and all. omfg, we're gonna have both shonen/shojo goodness <3 LOL~ as for artist, I think we should have a blueprint of how we're gonna do the first chapt. Like have 40 pages of ghetto thumbnail (I mean, really ghetto) of how we're gonna do each page. Each artist will do maybe 5-10 pages. This way, we can do it fast <3 or another method would be having two-three main artist that will draw, and have assistance. This method give less stress to artist cause it's like, SUPA COLLABORATION <3 I also fear that many artist don't know how to ink and tone >_>; it be good practice for only chapter one and then they can do it by themselves for chapter two <3 Kinda like step by step for beginner who's interested in making the manga without them stressing out and giving up so fast >_>;;; we gotta remember, no one know how to make a manga, so we gotta start of easy for peeps <3 Oh gosh, I need to practice drawing mecha >_>; fak, totally a noob at that area xD Haha!! also the first link, I can't see anything >w<;;; |

| ps: You and Jon are doing a fabulous job at organizing the club. For the past four years of checking all the anime club, it all have failed. The anime club back when I was in freshmen (06) it started okay until the president got a girlfriend and stop doing shiet. And then two rabid fangirls took over and made us watch Saiyuki for the past many month >_>; horrible~ they didn't do shiet but filling up their fangirls orgy >_>; In my sophomore(07) and junior(08) ..... haha, no comment because it was that horrible. I just went there once and never came back xD Whoooo~ Now that it's my last year (09) You guys definitely brought the anime club alive! I'm glad that you and Jon are so dedicated and I hope that next year will also be successful. Although I worry when you both graduate next year, the anime club might fall. But i'm sure that those two year will be worth it for many otaku, like me <3 much love for you guys *blow kisses* Thanks for the hard work! I will try to support you guys next year!! |

melancholy said: Okay, me and Jon have made this decision together. This is final, please don't argue against us. Before Wednesday, we, the active posters on the forums, will come up with a base idea of how the first chapter should go. During the meeting, we'll present the base idea and hope that people will put in their ideas, but not take over what we came up with. We're gonna type up everything we came up with in the club, and from there, Jon and I have decided that Sidrah will type up the the script of the first chapter. Sidrah was chosen, not because we love Sidrah and she's our best friend, but she's most defiantly the ONLY script writer who actively posts on the forums and doesn't BITCH AT US BEHIND OUR BACKS. If you're bitching at us, we hear about it, so don't think you can get away with it. We are told ALL THE TIME about these particular people who complain about their ideas being ignored.... then go off and say extremely rude things about us -_-. If you were REALLY mature, you'd be able to share your ideas and KNOW that it might get rejected cuz there's SO many ideas that get thrown at us. We're sick of hearing your complaints, and if all you do is complain, of course we don't want you to help us out. At this point, we're just REALLY pissed. Especially because the people who complain that ideas didn't get across didn't even tell us their ideas AT ALL and don't post on the forums. We're not gonna be nice and let our script be written by kids who won't grow up and take this professionally. If there's ANYONE who should be complaining, it should be me and jon because we spent HOURS outside of the club trying to organize this damn manga, run the meetings, and hell, get all you guys to otakon FOR FREE. Think about it. If the manga, the meetings, hell, the club was run by anyone else it wouldn't have been nearly as successful and efficient. Think about all the anime clubs the collapsed within the first year. Did they get off their damn asses to raise money for the club, or even think about making a manga as a group?? Even though we do all this work, you're the ones complaining at US??? Excuse me? Well than...remind me not to get on your bad side. (Praying to multiple gods that she wasn't talking about me and Evan....) |
| Also, my father ban hammered my laptop....for like 60+ days so I might not be able to post alot on here. |
| Okay...it's 2 in the morning and i was just on teh phone with jon rite? and we came up with likeee all these ideas on how to organize everything and stuff so HURR WE GO!!! First off, Jon will be director of scriptwriters + editors. He'll also be the typesetter for the manga. Lisa will be the artist director and will also be present during the editor meetings [just to see the progress lawl]. [btw helen, omg... if you want you can also be director of artists since you're like l33t and help out so much <333 the only problem is ... you're a -a... se...nio...r q_q;; BUT you can be director until you graduate <333 it's the least i could do for you :3] Calendar for CHAPTER ONE This will take effect on May 6th 2009. Since there's so little time left in the year, this schedule will be used for next year as well. BRACE YOURSELVES. THIS IS GANNA TAKE A SHIT LOAD OF DEDICATION and bare with the colors... it's like 4 in the fucking morning give me a break WEEK 1 May 6 Wednesday [Club meetings] Share ideas of what should be put in the chapter. The scriptwriters and editors will be hand picked by Jon The artist will have a sign up sheet for jobs such as panel art, concept art, outlining, and backgrond/tones. [but for the first chapter, lisa already hand picked a few people <3] May 7 - May 10 Thursday - Sunday [Scriptwriter's own time] Scriptwriter takes all of the ideas complied during the club meeting and types up a script. The script will STRICTLY be due on SUNDAYS. WEEK 2 May 11 - May 12 Monday - Tuesday [Editors Only Lunch Meeting] Jon will select editors to sit with him during lunch and run through the script. Based on the input of the editors, it could give them a shot at writing the next chapter uh...over teh summer o.o; The only other people, besides editors, that are allowed to attend will be the script writer and the art director. Other than that, this is STRICTLY for the chosen editors. Finalization of script must be made by the end of Tuesday. Decisions can be made outside of school if necessary. May 13 Wednesday [Club Meetings] Artists will receive a copy of the finalized script and this day will be made for further discussions concerning the art. There will be a separate art schedule, but everything is expected to be done within 1-2 weeks if coordinated correctly. We can go briefly over the next chapter, but srsly, this Wednesday will be a chill day. We got karaoke and Anime Expo planned out. Panel artists can also take this time to start. There will be 2 panel artists doing 20 pages each. May 14 - May 17 Thursday-Sunday [Panel Artists own time] Panel artists need to start making panels lol. Panels need to be done STRICTLY by the end of Sunday so it gets to the concept artists BY MONDAY. If panels aren't done by Monday, you'll prolly be permanently fired until we can trust you again :P Concept artists will just have to draw without panels. There will be 4 concept artists doing 10 pages each. WEEK 3 May 18 Monday [Artists only, Lunch meet] Panel artists will show concept artists what they have done. Concept artists will take what is done home to begin on the...uh... concept art XD We will discuss the process of accessing the photobucket account and uploading what you have done. May 20 Wednesday [Club meeting] Ideas for chapter 2 will be discussed. Scriptwriter for chapter 2 will be chosen. This scriptwriter has until Sunday to finish script, it should only be 20 pages. May 18 - May 22 Monday-Friday [Concept artists own time] Concept artists are STRICTLY responsible for getting the first 5 pages done by the end of Friday. All concept artists need to get their first 5 pages scanned by themselves and uploaded to our photobucket account so that the outliers have access to the images online and can get started. More details will be listed under "concept artists" If first 5 pages aren't done by the end of Friday, you'll prolly be permanently fired until we can trust you again :P Someone else will have to pick up on the pages that were dropped. May 22 - May 24 Friday - Sunday [concept artists and outline artists] Outliners will outline what has been uploaded to photobucket. All outlines must be done digitally. Post what you have done onto the photobucket account page - by - page so that the background/toner can begin right away. Concept artists are responsible for getting their assigned last 5 pages uploaded to photo bucket Outliners are responsible for outlining the first 5 pages of what they are assigned done by the end of Sunday. There will be 2 outline artists doing 20 pages each. WEEK 4 May 25 - May 29 Monday - Friday [Outliners and Background/Toners] Outliners will finish whatever pages they have left STRICTLY by the end of Wednesday. Remember to immediately upload whatever pages you have done on photobucket so that the background/toners can start right away. There will be 2 background/toners doing 20 pages each.

Typing in text takes a fuck load more time then it appears -_-;;; June 3 Wednesday [club meeting] WE'RE DONE! LAST MEETING OF TEH YEAR!! PAR-TAY!! |
melancholyMay 4, 2009 1:03 AM
JOB DESCRIPTIONS Please take these jobs seriously. When we set due dates, we EXPECT it to be done on the dot. If you miss your due dates, you'll be fired from working with us without a second thought. No excuses whether it's true or fake. If you were gonna end up telling an excuse in the end, then you shouldn't have picked up on the job... Again. These jobs take a shitload of dedication. Scriptwriters Scriptwriters will rotate every chapter. Scriptwriters will not be allowed to write 2 or more chapters in a row -_-; Jon will hand pick who will write which chapter based on their ideas presented in the club. Editors also have a chance of being scriptwriters based on their input as editors. So make sure you get on Jon's good side if you wanna be a script writer :P The first chapter is 40 pages and we decided to have Sidrah write it up :] reasons are posted on teh forum, plz read ~_~; Oh, and by 40 pages, we don't mean 40 pages on word document x___x;;; each page should have like 4-5 lines of dialogue? Maybe more? The scriptwriters also need to number each line so that the type setter knows which line goes in what bubble. We MIGHT double up the script writers since the first chapter is so long. The only problem is, unlike artists, you can't type up the first 20 pages of the script and then just pass it on like a stick. There's gonna be discussion in between and it's gonna get complicated with who types what, and when to meet especially cuz most of this is done over the weekend... but if sidrah wants to work with someone we'll sorta kinda leave that up to her lol. If more scriptwritters are chosen, we MIGHT have lunch meetings for script writters. This will prolly be decided later along the week >_<; Editors Editors rotate every chapter and are chosen by Jon based. Editors cannot be editors for 2 or more chapters in a row. There's usually 2-3 editors. Based on the editor's input, they might get a shot of writing the next chapter. Editing includes includes, and is not limited to, changing scenes, adding/removing/changing the moods, modifying lines to fit the characters, fixing grammar, etc... Good editors are judged upon understanding the depth of character development, imagining the flow of scenes, identifying plot holes, and inputting ideas to change and enhance scenes, not so much create new scenes. Bad editors just sit there are don't say much cept for like a spelling error :P Panel Artists Panel artists are responsible for ... basically drawing the "skeleton" of each page. You draw where the panels go and what happens in each panel. These need to be simple sketches. Stick figures are recommended ;D [but you can draw your own lil style if you want]. Please use rulers when drawing panels. This is important, cuz the concept artists should follow exactly how you drew the panels. Keep in mind that in the script, the lines will be numbered. In the bubbles, you are to write the line number instead of writing out the whole entire line. Saves a shitload of time. There will be 2 panel artists who will draw 20 pages each. Concept Artists Concept artists are the "main" artists. They're only responsible for drawing the characters, but it needs to be like a final draft of how the panels should look like. Try to stick close to what the characters look like, but don't be afraid to stick to your own personal style. With all the different styles, it'll look more like a group collab :] When you are done with the page, you need to scan the image and upload it to our photobucket account so it's accessible to the outliners. If you don't have a scanner, there are scanners at school. Try to scan what you have done immediately so the outliners can start right away. There will be 4 concept artists doing 10 pages each. Two concept artists have already been chosen by Lisa :] I've chosen these two because 1) they're seniors q___q;; and they won't be here next year to draw, so the least I could do is let them draw the first chapter 2) they're l33t and so fucking good at drawing. Even if they weren't seniors I'd choose them anywayz. These two doodz are Helen and Tyree <333 Concept artists only need to worry about drawing the characters, NOT the backgrounds, objects, super fine details or tones. Copy pasta: Keep in mind that in the script, the lines will be numbered. In the bubbles, you are to write the line number instead of writing out the whole entire line. Saves a shitload of time. Outline Artists The concept artists are responsible for uploading the pages to our photobucket account. Outliners are responsible for GOING on photobucket at least twice a day to see if any pages have been drawn. As soon as you see a page uploaded to photobucket, you need to start outlining IMMEDIATELY or asap so you can get it done and over with. Once you're done outlining, upload what you've got to photobucket so the toner/background person can start ASAP. Outliners should use somethin like Photoshop or Paintshop to outline. Copy Pasta: Keep in mind that in the script, the lines will be numbered. In the bubbles, you are to write the line number instead of writing out the whole entire line. Saves a shitload of time. There are 2 outliners who will do 20 pages each. Background/Toners I'm prolly gonna do background/tones for all the pages @___@;; cuz if there's one thing i'm good at, it's SFX 8D The job for background/tones is pretty self explanatory ~_~; Make sure you go on the photobucket account to see what the outliners have done, blah blah yeah. copy pasta message. mmk cool. Typesetter You type what's supposed to go in the bubbles ~_~ Jon will prolly be type setter, but we'll most likely split the jobs laterrr. If there are any questions or comments, dun hesitate to speak. mmk peace y'all. it's 4:34 AM and i'm tireeeed. |
| Dwaaah, you wrote this THIS EARLY IN THE MORNING. But yea, I would love to be a director of artist (until i graduate) I'll try my best to help the peep understand how to make a manga IMMA DO SPARTAN STYLE BITCHES! and if you do not find anyone who can do outline or toner, I can totally help you there and then <3 much love~ |
