I am about to burst... so I am going to share it here!

Post by Tawmis »

So as many know, I do Neverending Nights (the machinima using NWN) - well since this is the final season and I am doing all the writing - I went on a limb and figured I'd ask some folks who were huge inspirations to me in my life growing up...

Of course, you should be able to figure out who I asked first.

Al Lowe.

I sent him the script. He just sent me his lines for Episode 55.

I. Am. Bouncing. Off. The. Walls.

He's just amazing, isn't it?

And Tawm, while we're at it, and since you already have my personal email address, do you still have your old scripts? I've tried many times to watch your machinima, but I'm unable to properly understand some of the lines (me being a little Italian :oops: ), thankfully not many, but still, and I'd really like to have something to back me up ;)

I think I have the Season 2 scripts... Season 1 got lost during a HD crash.

The only problem is sometimes we improv lines... and so lines sometimes get changed slightly.

But I will dig them up and email it to you.

Thanks! :D

I'm currently watching Episode 4. During normal conversations, I understand everything. The problem arises when you do distorted voices (like the warriors in full armor of Episode 1): there I can understand the gist of the dialogue, but not every single line.

Go, Paul the dwarf!

:lol:

The goblins are going to be a nightmare for you. As is the talking sword later.

As for the Knights in the first episode, it's not distorted digitally - we're just over compensating on the voices to make them sound all "awesome" and stuff. :lol:

And you will eventually get to meet Pawl the Dorf...

And yes - in my excitement - failed to answer this. Yes. Al Lowe is, and has always been, amazing. Nicest person in the world when it comes to celeb status... and I definitely consider him a celeb. :)

Holy carp! That's awesome, Tawmis. It must be a great feeling that he agreed to do that. :D

Cloud 9, dear... cloud 9. He agreed to it awhile ago, but then had the heart attack, life, the holidays... I would have waited years! I told him we're only on Episode 42, he's in Episode 55 - he has about 6 months to a year (since we have not yet begun Season 3 anyway!) before he needs to get the lines to me! Especially at the rate we dish out episodes! :lol:

:lol: Still making them - yes. Have not put out a new episode yet since the end of Season 2 (Episode 42)... Working on writing them out now - and will begin voicing and filming probably the beginning of next year (as I imagine everyone local to me is going to be too busy during the holidays).

Will do! The only thing I am even remotely jealous about is - when I wrote the episode, the entire time he's talking to Adam's character! My character doesn't even have a single line in the episode with Al Lowe! :lol:

It will be quite awhile before Al Lowe's episode is out... I am back to writing Season 3 - we still need to begin voicing - filming - editing - and the last episode of season 2 was Episode 42... and we crank one out about once a month... sometimes twice in a month (especially now that I am doing all the filming & editing!)... and I don't expect to begin voicing the episodes until Jan 2010... so that's 13 episodes away... we're talking 6 months to a year! But I will be bubbling with exciting when that episode comes out! I am sure I will spam it everywhere. Make no mistake. I mean really - when have you known me not to be all spammy and be all self promoting? :lol:
