This is the list as of March 7. This list will be updated as needed.
Currently, Joshcash is continuing to work on the Trailer, and Ballerina is working on the story for the first episode.

The series is going to follow a squad of 8 Marines near the beginning of the Iraq war in 2003. It will take place mostly in Baghdad as they acclimate to this new and dangerous environment. It will have a heavy emphasis on the normal joking and sarcasm that takes place with any military unit, but there will be some action and drama mixed in there. Think more Black Hawk Down (yes, I stole your line Ballerina).

If you have any questions, feel free to PM me or come into Ventrilo to ask them.

What about me?

I noticed that I wasn't included on that list, and I was wondering what happened. I apologize for not being at that meeting, but I understand that I might have strained your patience. I ask that you put me on the list again, but fully understand if you do not.
In a gesture of good will, I present the screenplay for a teaser trailer.
Camera is looking down at the ground, soft, somber music starts to play. One of the team members starts a voice over, but is interrupted by another squad mate dancing across the camera's view, and you can hear loud rock music. Cpl.: "Dammit, PFC, you're ruining the mood!" Starts chasing after the hapless private "WHEN I GET MY HANDS ON YOU!" They disappear around the corner.
 
Well,i do understand that you have stuff in real life and that's alot more important then this,so yea.

All right, I'll add you back in to the list McLeod (Pay attention to your PM box). Sorry Feather, I wasn't thinking about the editors, I'll get you in the list too. Sorry I didn't update this sooner. Sunday I drove to Ohio and yesterday I drove back here to Florida from Kentucky.


Any other people that would like to see their names in this list, please post in this thread with what you want to do or send me a PM with the same info.

Remember all, meeting this Saturday 8:30EST.

Will you guys be posting ongoing work for those that are interested in following your workings? I am very interested.
 
I will be posting summaries of the project and what happened at a meeting soon after a meeting takes place.
 
I definitely did make it to the meeting. And so did Lightning, and Nightslayer had an excuse. We three were actually where we were supposed to be at the right time.

I can see from your post First Timer that you thought it was 8:30 here when it was 9:30 here.
 
I was there so can aknowledge Jedi's presence there :p


Discussion of that time ....

Julius Caesar Quote:

Horum omnium fortissimi sunt Belgae.
Of all these, the Belgians are the bravest/strongest .
Caesar suffered his greatest military defeat at the hands of the Belgians, the humiliation reaching Rome, and infuriating the man who then set out on one of Rome's biggest campaigns to crush the Republic's most feared rebels once and for all.
De Bello Gallico, Book I, Ch. 1


Star Wars Anyone ? :p
