I can be in the choir! I am an alto. Not a very good one, though, I'll admit.

Nariel · 01-21-2004, 06:58 PM

sounds good... my link is up!

Legoles · 01-21-2004, 08:16 PM

u forgot ME! I forgot to mention, I have a great vocal range so I can sing almost any part except for low alto. I sing solo quite often, and everybody says I have a great voice[those who've heard me at least] If you need a sample or something, I'm sure I could get it into my comp, and onto a post or somesuch.

hectorberlioz · 01-22-2004, 01:25 AM

I think Samnotsowise better make a list of choir members...
btw-legoles, you said i forgot you. what position did you want?

Don't worry, we can stand at the back together. Choirs need non-soloists like us to provide the full-bodied, beautiful sound of a large choir.

SamNotSoWise · 01-22-2004, 02:34 PM

Per our Director's request, here's the list of choir members.

Please let me know if I missed anyone or if I put you in the wrong part.

-----------------------------

Sopranos: Katt_knome_hobbit

Mezzo-sopranos: Legoles, Nariel, ryttu3k

Altos: Nurvingiel, jellyfishannah

Contraltos:

1st tenors:

2nd tenors: Finrod Felagund

Baritones:

Basses:

-----------------------------

As you can see, we have a long way to go. Please let me know if you're interested and what part you sing!

(I know that's supposed to be the embarrassed icon, but it looks like it's singing to me!)

Nariel · 01-23-2004, 11:46 AM

Has it occured to anyone that we'll need to get permission from Tolkien Enterprises Inc. to use these names, etc? That could get pricy. How exactly were we planning an funding this thing?

Just a question from the Marketing Department. Please don't put me in charge fo the Business Department, too.

Also, I'm working on finding/designing a font that we can use as our main advertising scheme. Of course, we don't want to copy PJ so does anyone have any ideas as to the "theme" we're going by (for example, PJ used a dark, Mordory theme for most of the posters. I want something a little lighter. Not that the movie is lighter, but just so we don't look like plagiarisers.)

b.banner · 01-23-2004, 02:43 PM

how do we get permission to do it ?

I'm sorry to burst anyone's bubble, and I hate posting it in this thread, but it should be cleared up that we're not really making a movie. This is mainly due to a lack of funds, lack of time by the major organizers, and a lack of us living on the same continent.

This thread is speculating about how we would go about making a Lord of the Rings movie, what would be included in the script, who would play what parts, what the music would be like etc. etc.

However, the thread is no less valid or interesting despite the fact that we're not really making a movie.

In our minds, we are. That is enough, and all we can do.

Cheers,
Nurvingiel
Asst. Director #3

What?!

A thread like this could create some interesting discussions; we'll have to decide what parts are important and what parts are not and what kinds of scenes we would add or change. This often results in people defending the passage they love the most from the books, arguing why their part should be kept (and why others' parts aren't as important as their own).

Oh, and since there's not really much for me to do, can I make up some lines/extra scenes for my character? I was thinking of adding a scene where you see Thranduil saying farewell to Legolas on the borders of Mirkwood (and perhaps a scene where Smeagol escapes from Mirkwood).

hectorberlioz · 01-24-2004, 01:52 AM

Nurvingiel! shame on you!

hey, dont anyone listent to her...

it could develop into something serious.
just that everyone should prepare for the fact that we might not ever get it done...
i posted that in the first post. read it.

**Nurvingiel** · 01-24-2004, 05:20 AM

Sorry Hector. I really just meant that we're not immediately planning a movie. (Oh no, I'm going to get demoted to Assistant Director #1'853'916)

Indeed

, it's also interesting to see what and who would all be needed to film something like this, even if we're just speaking hypothetically.

Which reminds me, while we have some designers of clothing, sets and props already (those jobs readily fill up), I don't think we have got anybody who can actually make them. The practical side of designing gets forgotten often. I can draw pretty clothes but to my regret I can't even use a sewing-machine. So we'd need smiths, painters, carpenters, seamstresses, ect.. too. We can't let Nariel do it all.

hectorberlioz · 01-24-2004, 11:37 AM

youre absolutely right! i totally forgot about all those positions....
we need...hmmm...how many smithies do you suppose we need?

we can just hire a carpenting company.
and we need.
seamstresses(dont get too stressed)

I think the number of smithies will depend on how large you want the armies to be, though I suppose we could cheat a little on those that won't actually be filmed clearly in combat in.

About the seamstresses, erm... I didn't mean it exactly that way. it's just, I could only remember the female form of that profession.

hectorberlioz · 01-24-2004, 11:47 AM

i know

i was just making a pun

.

well, i think i want my armies to be half the size and a bit bigger than jackson's.
how many smithies did they have to use for jackson's film?

Lady Ravyn · 01-24-2004, 01:01 PM

oh, darn, to find that out i'll just have to watch the dvds again. man... lol

**Nurvingiel** · 01-24-2004, 05:29 PM

What do you mean by half the size but a bit bigger?

Do you mean half the numbers, but each person is larger?
