Re: Create This Week! (First Post Updated)

Thanks for reminding me that it's deadline day! No idea if anybody has actually made anything, but awh well. If you have anything, chuck it up here!

I haven't had much time at all to devote this week, so the best I could do was a two page story of sorts that I bashed out in half an hour. But then again, that's the idea of this thing - just quick little bursts of creativity, doesn't matter if they're any good or not!

'Create this Week' IN SPAAAAAAAAAAAACE! (With added boobage)

Right guys, seeing as we have a lot of folk here interested in space and also because we have a thing on frickin' Mars - this weeks theme is space! Also, for extra points, you shall be rewarded if you can find a way to incorporate space boobs.

So yeah, same old - same old. Create something which is influenced by space, it can be anything! It doesn't have to be a masterpiece, it's all about having a bit of fun. The deadline for this is August 17th, get cracking!

You could consider the space sphere as a robot boob, but it's not my contribution, just a reference to Portal 2.
I have an idea but I'm not happy with my first result from tonight.

Re: Create This Week! (First Post Updated)

This isn't my final thing, more of a quick test. I wanted to create a space scene practically, so I poked some holes in an old t-shirt and stuck it in front of my monitor. I also used the flash from my phone for the star.

Looks great, almost exactly like a long exposure shot of the moon.

Depending on the clouds, I might try taking some long exposures of the night sky tonight. Trying to focus the damn camera with a tiny viewfinder is a bitch though, didn't have much luck in my first attempt.

High Flight of Barbarella
by John Gillespie Magee, Jr. and Zarban

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
of sun-split clouds, — and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of — rocketed high and fast among
The eerie, tinny silence. Orbiting there,
I’ve sought Durand Durand, and flung
My eager craft through high halls without air....

Up there, beyond the burning blue
I’ve searched Tau Ceti's heights with easy grace.
Where never lark, or ever angel flew —
And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
Unzipped my spacesuit and showed my boobs to God.

Warning: I'm probably rewriting this post as you read it.

I'm not sure the added eerie tinny silence, boobs, and sun analogue enhance High Flight

Is it just me, or is Zarban going from amusing to fascinating in a "this guy might be Oscar Wilde" sort of way?

Hopefully you'll get some nice shots of the Peresids!

Oh, man, I totally should rewrite The Importance of Being Earnest to be set in the Star Wars universe.

LADY BRACKNELL*
To lose one parent, Commander Worthing, may be regarded as a misfortune. To lose both looks like carelessness. Who was your father?

ERNEST
Well, I don't actually know who I am. I was found by a protocol droid of charitable disposition in a battle droid factory on Geonosis and given the name "Worthing". Worthing is a class 1 space port there.

LADY BRACKNELL
And where did this charitable protocol droid find you?

ERNEST
In a bag of leftover hands.

LADY BRACKNELL
A HAAAANDBAG?!?!!!

Ewan Macgregor would make a fun Algernon. Make this happen, Zarban.

Well, it's deadline day and I never really got to do what I had planned. I wanted to do a practical space scene like what I did above, but y'know...in motion and with a toy spaceship.

Re: Create This Week! (First Post Updated)

Let's extend the deadline then.

Re: Create This Week! (First Post Updated)

I vote extending the deadline to see that.

Re: Create This Week! (First Post Updated)

I'd be happy with an extended deadline too. I haven't had time to finish what I had planned on making yet.
