Is there an easy/recommended way to have one video lead directly into the next on YouTube? I think I can make the link appear directly on the screen at the end of Act One that'll lead to Act Two, but hopefully there's a better way I haven't figured out yet. On-screen links like those are fugly.

Tag to watch after work. It sounds like this project has SERIOUSLY taken off. Congratulations are in order; I know this hasn't been a fast or easy process. What's the next step, HaRRicH? I've been lurking, and the last thing I read was that yours was one of three scripts that might make it to a production company. Is that still the case? The reaction sounds really encouraging either way. Has anyone been acting as an agent for you, letting you know realistic chances and time tables here for making this happen? Or is it too early to start talking profit?

It sounds like you had last heard of the play about this time last year in TSC's same New Play Festival; ONLINE FIGHTING was one of three plays selected for a table-reading (actors reading the script around a table). Since then, the script has been reformatted for more proper future submissions, copyrighted, revised, and was the only play to be brought back to this year's New Play Festival as a stage-reading (actors still have scripts, but they're on their feet and have basic design-elements).

All that is about the two-act version of the play, but the original piece (basically OF's first scene) also got its first full production in September; I co-directed and performed in it for the second half of a fighting showcase hosted by the Wild Thyme Players. You can see that here:



As for the future...well, I don't know, but I have some goals. I found out I can be published while maintaining my eligibility for new play festivals, so future research in that regard's coming -- while a big-name publisher would be nice, the idea of self-publication is enticing too. TSC's interested in the idea of bringing OF back to headline next year's New Play Festival, though that is certainly not guaranteed. They did like my idea of trying to find a way to collaborate with the charity Child's Play and/or major game companies who would be cool enough to support a play about gaming, but I also don't know how to successfully do either of those yet. They've requested another draft this spring, so my goal's to give them one by the end of March. I'm moving to NYC in the summer too, so maybe there's a chance OF can be done there...though I'd rather the play fully debut here where it was created. Profit for playwriting's been non-existent so far (theatre isn't known for its good pay!), though I've got high-apple-pie hopes that those tides are about to turn.

Thank you for the kudos -- the future about this once scared me, but now it's become exciting. =)

Thanks for the kind words, TRE! Tightening the script is going to be one of my two main goals with its next revision (the other's making Anna a more consistent character).

It looked like YouTube would have a fifteen-minute limit unless I added my phone number to prove my realness. Whatever though -- the videos are edited, so I'll post a new topic with the links hopefully after work tomorrow.

The meeting went very well tonight too. For example, I found out they've never had as large of an audience for a stage-reading as they had for my play...despite it happening on Superbowl Sunday. F*** yeah. =)

There may be more news in the coming months as well. For now, however, my goals are clear on how to continue improving this piece.

If you don't read it soon, at least you can watch it soon!

Speaking of which, I'm about to transfer the files onto my computer. Assuming I have a program that'll allow me to edit the clips all together, how long of a file will YouTube allow me to upload at once? I don't know if I should make it all one long film (preferable), split it by acts, or by scene in case YouTube wants to fight me on its length; I believe it has in the past, though I think they've allowed longer videos since then too.

I'm hoarse from laughing -- they did a wonderful job. The discussion afterward lasted so long the venue had to kick us out, and the majority of that discussion was more than positive. The artistic director of the company and play's director wish to talk more tomorrow, too, so...I'm very exhausted and fortunate right now.

I'll be posting the videos once I learn how to upload them onto my computer...hopefully that'll be tomorrow.

Yeah, setting up the premise of a play in its opening minutes sucks; that's where a lot of plays struggle. I think I've done better with that in the play I'm currently writing, at least.

...get over yourselves, Superbowl-fans -- my play ONLINE FIGHTING is getting its first stage-reading today!

http://www.tennesseestage.com/

"ONLINE FIGHTING is an action-comedy about two video gamers rekindling a feud. What starts off as fun and games online quickly becomes a battle of jealousy and redemption offline -- especially once loved ones are involved."

It was in their New Play Festival last year as one of three table-readings (actors reading aloud around a table), and it's the only one of those three to return this year as a stage-reading (actors still with scripts but are on their feet with basic sets/costumes/sound). If it does well again, there's a chance it'll get a true three-week production to headline next year's festival.


You may be asking yourself "Dude, HaRRicH, like, check it son: I've followed all of your topics about your dumb play, and I could have sworn you already produced it before. What's so new about an old play?" ONLINE FIGHTING did get a full production last September, true...of only the original-length version, which is just the first scene of the two-act version being done today (with a larger company than September's production as well). Here it is, in case you missed it:



Not sold on watching that link yet? Here's the only review that matters:

"That was pretty cool. Thanks for sharing. :)"
--SBAllen


"Yo yo yo yo yo, that's great and all, but will I be able to see this production?" As a matter of fact, voice in my head, yes! I got a video camera for Christmas and will be recording this production, so you can expect videos from today later this week.



Last, thanks for the support you've given in the past, B8. It's a play I've found many people enjoy whether they know diddly about video games or not, but it's especially made for gamers like us...so I'll continue keeping you guys posted.

Game on.

Also, BK is approximately seventy-two thousand times better than BT.

One of my biggest all-time game-purchasing mistakes was pre-ordering DNF. Not that I have any regret about owning such a legendary game, but I sure wish I spent $40 less for a lacking title that -- before anything else -- teaches you how to piss and throw other people's poop. If I had known my computer wouldn't run it right either despite running Portal 2 the month before, saving my money would have been an even easier decision.

As for the topic's new direction, VVVVVV's much better. Don't let people over-rate it for you, but it's quality.
