Subject: OKAY promo time!!!

Kashy likes the PROMO idea, so I think epps one thru four, who know what the eppie is about (Hopefuly all four of us do, Neil has already written eppie one) should write their promo for their episode.

Here's Mine::
*********
Camera pan to scene, Exterior Desert, the camera moves faster and faster until we come upon the face of Tara.

Tara: You think you know, what you are, whats to come?

Camera shoot to Interior Summers home. A flaming bottle flies in the kitchen and the counter bursts into flames.

Buffy: What the - Faith!

Camera flash to dark haired girl fighting Buffy and Faith. Tara voices over the fight.

Tara: You've only just begun.

Camera shoot back to Exterior desert. Announcer's voice over.

Announcer: You've met the chosen two...

Camera shoot to Tara talking to a robed figure. The First slayer circles the figure.

Announcer: Now meet the third. Stay tuned, you're in for a ride...

Camera shoot to robed figure who removes her robe to reveal the girl who was fighting with Buffy and Faith. The screen goes instantly black.

A Demonic voice is heard in the Dark.

Demonic Voice : INTO HELL!!!

Announcer: On Buffy the Vampire Slayer...
*******

This was taken from snipets from my script, you guys should try making a promo, its fun!!!

I'm guessing 8.01 will air at the C&S (assuming we get a positive reply soon) on Wednesday 5th March. Wouldn't want to start on Sunday 2nd because I think we should have a few episodes completed in advance, in case one writer hits difficulties and there is a delay. :-)

So I'm not expecting an answer soon, just wanted to ask a question. Would it
be possible to begin posting our S8 Fanfic episodes on the Cross and Stake,
possibly ever Sunday and Wednesday. These would run as a full 22-episode
season, with a promo being released the day before the episode, if that's
permissable.

If you're interested in taking a look at some of our ideas to get a better
understanding of what we're aiming for, feel free to have a good old lurk,
or even post, at www.voy.com/134358/

I hope that this Fic season will be coming at a good time - obviously in the
build-up to the *real* BtVS finale, tensions may run a little high on the
board, and our SHIP-FREE (yes, we were very specific about that!) fics may
be a nice relief for boardies. Plus it shouldn't cause any arguments... :-)
And I think we've got a good strong season coming together - some are
written in Wildfeed format, whilst a lot of the others are written as full
scripts. The wildfeed-style 8.01 is up at our forum now!

But like I said, you've got a lot on your plate at the moment. If you get
the chance, an email back would be great!

I thought I already e-mailed you back on this...guess not. :) Yes, the episodes can be posted like you have planned, but my only concern is the promo. Is it possible to maybe include a promo with the preceding episode instead of a new thread the day before? I'm just thinking about the craziness of the board on Tuesdays. We can try the promos the day before if they can't be done the day of the preceding episode, but depending on how the responses go and the traffic on the board, we may need to find an alternative time for that. :)

Looking forward to seeing the posts! :)

-Michelle



How cool is that?! :-)



**NEW ASSIGNMENT** If you think you're a good promo writer, then write a "Season Build-up" promo, to publicise the new season and hint at things to come in S8!

[> [> Im confused -- Mark, 05:44:35 02/27/03 Thu

Are these things that are going to happen in season 8? Why is Angelus in it? And if it's scenes from previous scenes, why are they necessary for season 8?

[> Re: -- Sgt. Rock, 11:38:15 02/27/03 Thu

V.O
We've seen slayers through time

Clips of previous slayers, Raven in her 1800s days, and Buffy & Faith

V.O
But what happens when the force trying to destroy the world, is the same force trying to protect it?

Clip of Raven in 1800's fighting vampires, then cut to her feeding in modern day NY.

V.O.
Coming this [insert day here], Buffy faces her own worst fears.

Follows up with quick flashes of Willow raising Proserpexa's temple, Raven, the cheese guy, Buffy as a vampire in Nightmares, the horsemen with big lightening storm behind. Then
camera starts in front of high school, quickly navigates the school, goes down into the basement and shoots through the ground. screen goes blank. We hear a disembodied female voice.

Female Voice
I'm coming for you, slayer

V.O
Only, on UPN.

I did past baddies in my clip just to show picture while my announcer says "Throughout the years you've seen those who've dared to stand up to the force known as the slayer" or whatever I typed, the pictures go with what the announcer says.

[> [> Oh ok...also one point -- Mark, 20:25:07 02/27/03 Thu

I think we need to really make sure we don't give too much away. I mean where's the fun if even before the season starts we say there will be a Vamped Slayer, the Four Horsemen will come in, and that Proserpexa will return? That would be like season 6 of Buffy showing pictures of Evil Willow before the year even started.

[> [> [> I agree -- Faithsguy, 20:52:13 02/27/03 Thu

thats why my promo said "quick shot of a man on a horse coming out of a hole" and then almost no ref to the rest of our season. I dont want there to be a lot of shots of Raven at all, nor the horsemen or Proserpexa, I think the promo that had the past slayers in it and then Raven in it should be trimmed down to not show her except for maybe one shot. And I dont think we should use Names at all! No mentioning "Raven" or "Four Horsemen" or "Proserpexa"

[> [> [> [> Yes, but it's not the same. -- JSlayerUK, 22:12:02 02/27/03 Thu

I mean, when you write down on screen "shot of a man on a horse coming out of a hole" it's different to when it flashes on the screen and is undefined.
