I feel awful, but I am just too frikkin’ busy to update this blog 🙁 I have lots of entries in mind, so I promise when I get a chunk of The Guild comic finally figured out I will be amusing you greatly with some corset romance novel entries 🙂
Mainly, I want to let you know that Guild Episode 3 “Player Down” is now live on our Microsoft platforms!
Streaming on MSN
Downloadable in HD on Xbox
Downloadable on Zune
(There is a slight delay on the Xbox/Zune platforms due to software updates (especially on the Canadian upload) so you might have to check back in certain regions)
Depressingly I already wrote this blog entry and lost it. Yay technology? 😀 Anyhoo, this episode was pretty much MADE by @seanbecker’s awesome directing and editing. The frenetic energy of the Guild falling apart and Codex’s lack of assertiveness was definitely enhanced by the quick cuts and hilarious angles. I had trouble when writing this episode because there were SO many storylines being set up and I was eager to get the story moving, but we had a lot more ground to cover, especially Vork going on his “quest” (which is so hilarious, the trash can thing was a great directing addition.) A whole section of this episode was moved to make the story smoother and build better, so it is NOT how it was shot. Thank goodness it worked! On a personal note, when Tyler, the production designer, proposed this van-thing for Vork’s car I just cracked up. It’s soooo ridiculous and RIGHT for Vork, although I had envisioned a 70’s gas guzzler sedan myself. The brilliant thing is all the little easter eggs he put INSIDE the van that you guys as the audience will never see but cracked the crew up sooo much. Incidentally we will probably be auctioning off this car in the next month or so for charity, please check @theguild Twitter in the next weeks for more details.
