You forgot the ending credits, which take 12 minutes.

Oh dear it seems the graal resteraunt serves cake now.. we're all in danger.
Anways, I'm good with scripting.
Example of my writing:
"3.17.24 was sprawled on the wall, glimmering in the dimming light of the setting sun. It seemed to almost be written in crushed diamond, yet it was warping around itself, turning in the dark atmosphere. Adeline blinked, her soft blonde hair jostling as she moved, trying to get a better look at the numbers, but they were gone from her sight. She turned around, trying to find them once more, but as she was only 8 at the time, she did not understand. The sparkling numbers on the wall were no where to be seen, as if gobbled by the darkness. Adeline clawed at the pink covers of her bed, tucking her head underneath them as if they would protect her from the future set in stone. As she calmed down her ragged breaths turned into whispers, then snores. At last the girl was asleep.
The next morning, the light shone through and woke her from the slumber. Stretching, she pulled her arms from beneath the warm blankets, having forgotten the events of the night before. But they would not end at that night, although soon forgotten they would come back, if only she could wait a few years. Adeline padded across the floor, her parents still asleep in the room besides her. Tip-toeing across the hardwood floor, she made her way to the kitchen. Yawning, she reached up to grab a piece of candy off the ceramic bowl on the counter. Popping it in her mouth, Adeline headed back up to her room and began to play with her dolls, just like any normal 8 year old girl may do after forgetting the numbers written on their wall from last night."

Nice! The first scene of the movie is up on the front page of this thread. Try emulating the script format I have used there. Scripts aren't written like normal short stories. If you can have the audacity to write a 30+ minute long screenplay for this movie I will be impressed. If not, try to complete a couple scenes, or maybe even an Act. This thing is going to have to be LONG

I'm an assigned Set Builder, hellz yeah! I think I might record my voice and try to apply for Voice Actor too, although I'll probably sound like a little kiddy.

Tommy Pulse · 12-31-2011

Higbey · 12-31-2011

a angsty teen boy whos village was crushed by a dark force and his parents killed, and he is the chosen one destined to kill the villain....how original /sarcasm

also i just found a perfect set. work a giant mountain rock fortress into the script.

I found Pixs forttress.
its amazing

I think the premise is odd, it doesn't relate to Graal or the Minecraft server at all. Bringing in a character that doesn't even exist among us Graal characters makes it stranger considering that Higbey is supposedly the main villian, and trying to emulate a dark side or trying to cause viewers to emit feelings or emotions for the main character pretty much ruins the whole comedy factor.
Take Spaceballs for example, that was a straight out comedic video. Sure it had a plot and ultimately a goal to defeat Darth Helmet (Something like that, I can't remember since it's been so long), but the rest was just thrown in comedy. I don't even think thirty minutes is long enough to form a high relationship with the character unless you did something really epic, but still that would ruin the comedic factor.
I was thinking of it being more like Higbey is causing horrible things to happen to all Graalian residents on the server and then ultimately all Graalians banding together to stop Higbey and his plans. Something really simple to make the cut of thirty minutes and something that will allow for many comedic scenes to take place.
I'm just mainly concerned about time management and the comedic/action genre of the movie.

The plans for the first city are here! Check it out! I renamed the city Onnet Town.

[EDIT] Here is the style i want the houses designed in!

°Seeker99 · 12-31-2011

Cat612 · 12-31-2011

Now my competitive writing side begins to show itself. The short story needs to be in the form of a script right?

Onnet town is almost complete! We need to fill in the circle in the middle with gold and add a fountain... then add some other details to the houses (like finishing the inside of Stephan's house) and we will be pretty much done! All we need is some skins (and a script) and we can start shooting the first act!
Some nice guys over at Turtle Craft helped me build this and set us up a free area to use in creative mode, with a whitelist to prevent greifing! How great is that? Ill send you the ip if you ask.

Tommy Pulse · 12-31-2011
