TMNT the Baugh Productions movie - Page 2

Hrmm.. well, if Blair Witch could pull it off, I guess he could too.

But dude, you really need to get ahold of the creators. Laird would prolly have a spit-fit if you did not notify him. The easiest way to get in touch with Laird and Dan Berger is thru the emails on their websites. I also know friends (not on this board) who have the actual phone numbers for Laird, Lawson, and Berger. You want me to ask my friends to talk with you?

In another post he wrote that he was 10 years old. So I guess he'll have to save his allowance and lunch money.

it might be 30 years oflunch money just to get one frame done

have you guys EVER heard of an itty bitty thing called...what was it....oh yeah... GRANTS?!

what the heck didja think I was gonna do?

*Eye of Sarnath* · 01-28-2003, 03:56 PM

Well, I certainly be interested to see this... if anything ever comes of it.

An indy film re-enactment of the TMNT...dear god, is nothing sacred? While some indy films yield interesting issues for debate, the option of doing one enables even the most incompetent of self-proclaimed "filmmakers" to put out their proto-blunders. Now I've seen everything.

Good luck man. I would recomend a CG movie, but that's just me, because all you need is some good modelers, animators, editor and some voice talent. I'm working on one, but it's a solo project, and I just modeled my first turtle (hopefully he'll be in the fan art section soon). The great thing is that once you get your models and sets, you can play all you want. But I wish you luck, and I'll be watching. Also, the internet makes a lot of things possible, if you merely expose your movie through the web without profit, then you can do whatever the hell you want. Look at Star Wars. There are better Fan movies out there than episode 1

Donatello02 · 01-31-2003, 06:07 PM

Let me get this straight, junior...you're planning on making a unliscensed TMNT movie, which will pretty much be like the first one except a LOT cheaper looking, and closer to the comic, and then play it in theatres? Is that all of it? And how may I ask are you going to pull that out of your ass? What are you gonna use for the costumes, the lil kiddie role playing costumes that were sold back in the late eightes?

Yeah, good luck with that man....may god have mercy on your soul.

**Karpo_007** · 02-02-2003, 08:52 AM

LOL

Those suits would look pretty good!

*Jephael* · 02-02-2003, 08:57 AM

I'm surprised that nobody has considered stop-motion animation. He could simply take some old action figures and pose them frame by freame to make them look real. Of coarse there's the problem with their expressions being unable to change.

**Karpo_007** · 02-02-2003, 09:28 AM

Unless the frames would be edited with coputer.

*Eye of Sarnath* · 02-02-2003, 09:39 AM

There are thousands of ways he could do a TMNT movie BESIDES live action: stop motion animation, claymation (pretty much along the same lines of stop motion animation), Flash animated, computer animated like, say, Toy Story (if can afford that kind of software, which is unlikely unless you do it professionally).

**Karpo_007** · 02-02-2003, 09:47 AM

Well there are ways to get commercial software...

Prowl · 02-02-2003, 05:32 PM

My model of Leo has been posted on the Technodrome's misc fan art section. He has bones now, and in the near future I intend to make a short mini episode. It's easier to work with digital actors

**Karpo_007** · 02-02-2003, 05:39 PM

Tha looks cool!

Prowl · 02-02-2003, 08:30 PM

thanks

Psycrow · 02-02-2003, 08:39 PM

In response to Donatello02, I would watch a movie if those costumes were featured exclusively.

Donatello02 · 02-03-2003, 05:22 PM

The guy said he's making the film live action. Like I said...may god have mercy on his soul.

**Karpo_007** · 02-03-2003, 05:39 PM

A fan made CGI project does sound interesting... I wonder what kind of software would be needed.
