Viewing of this project will be in two separate stages. Parts as it is filmed will be released via Youtube. A complete version later at a point called a "Node" will be turned into a movie. It will contain a collection of the best scenes from the season, and in addition an extra feature. Parts will also be released to public access networks.
All filming will be conducted in private and in public. To the outside world, it will appear that the action being recorded is of a reality-tv appearance. Many of the scripts will be either:
> Planned in advance in the phictioncharacters or phictionlit blog.
> improvised from a general
understanding of the behavior of their characters (and the perceived interaction that would correspond with their behavior).
Most crew involves only one or two camerapersons, and a director of sorts. Its important that the director not get too involved. It is impossible for the director to be a character, but all characters are writers. A director can be a writer, too, and often is involved in the scripting process.
Ideas for filming are listed on the blog. Skits are under skits. A separate blog entitled phictioncharacters is elsewhere, which describes each character.
Characters describe themselves
in a bio/journal meant to be written by the fictional character they pretend to be. The outside world (viewing audience) has access to this. Signed-in characters are allowed to write to their character, comment on the posts of others (in non-character as comments, to describe an interaction).
Each actor/actress is payed for each performance in a revenue-sharing scheme designed to:
> be fair to all
> encourages quality acting
> keeps everyones best interests in mind
Waiver form establishes entry onto the platform. Negotiates:
> revenue sharing formula
> hitcount/advertising platform
> terms of retraction
Writers are actors. Scenes are planned on a plot forum, which is a blogspot with permissions granted to each of its members.
