I'll be setting up a spacecraft exchange thread tomorrow so you can post crafts for the film there

Well I was thinking it should have enough room for a rover, which I need to get round to designing, is it possible we could mix two ideas together? I have been speaking to some people and they gave me an idea for a dropship, they said that they liked the way that the dropship out of aliens delivered its cargo. Here is pic http://www.ianlawrencemodels.com/web%20pics/dropship/Pic_0073.jpg I dont like the art style, but I do like the way that the rover is hidden inside, so the shuttle will have to be quite big, a welded frame should be ok with doors and detailing added later would be perfect to reduce part count. As for mods, currently I think we definitely need: B9, firespitter, texture replacer, planet factory, Welder, stuff like that, i'll go through the add on section at the weekend to post a list of what is available. As for mod count, for a movie this size I think that we should use mods as some parts in the game aren't up to standard. I think the best way is to use a shared game save that way we can know what mods are being used

Yes, I get my computer back this weekend, new motherboard, processor and stuff to fix it so yes I will be able to download your crafts

Ohh yes i like the idea of an avatar based ship, with its huge sails and stuff, scrap Prometheus, that can be the shuttle design

Well i was thinking of a ship following the design style of prometheus, i love that ship the lines and colour, ksp and b9 should make it easy

I'll add people tomorrow for now I have maybe come up with a overview, i like it a lot Project Arctic Brief story overview 1784- A team of explorer’s sets off to the pole, they find something in the ice, but before they can get back they go missing mysteriously. Nowadays- Another team of explorer’s sets off for the pole, there mission is to collect surface samples from the most northerly point on Kerbin. They land their plane just outside of a arctic village, the inhabitants tell them not to go any further or the gods will punish them for their sins. They decide to travel by car and so set off forgetting the advice the tribe had given them. A large alien structure emerges through the snow storm, it towers several hundred metres in the sky. They report the findings back to base. 2 Years since discovery- The site is awash with scientists and structures researching the alien structure. The structure activates and the scientists find out that it is sending a signal to another planet. A board meeting is held between all of the countries of Kerbin determining what to do. They set up Project Arctic, a one way mission to the planet to investigate the receiver. Scene finishes with a image of Project Arctic badge, which fades into next scene which has badge on side of craft. 4 Years since discovery- The ship is finished in space and has final checks, the crew docks. The scientist is the same Kerbal who discovered the structure, he is main character. The crew goes into cryostasis and the ship jumps to the location. 8 Years since discovery- The ship arrives at the planet and the crew come out of cryostasis, a shuttle is launched and lands on the surface. The surface resembles LV 426 in looks and is my inspiration. The crew use rovers to travel closer to the receiver. They come to a ridge and poke over revealing a huge alien structure with bio domes and other tech. The crew enter the structure and find it is counting down. They investigate what it is doing and who built it. Before long the team members begin to disappear one by one, the survivors eventually find their way out and take off in the shuttle. It re-docks with the mothership and finds that whatever was down there with them has managed to come aboard. After desperately trying to find out what the countdown is for they discover that it is until the receiver sends a message for Kerbin structure to self destruct killing the planet. The crew now down to one decides to ram the receiver resulting in a spectacular explosion. The film ends with the camera pulling back to reveal thousands of receivers.

Well it looked cool XD, jeb says add more struts

Of course why wouldnt they still be open loving the team at the moment

Like this :http://www.skibartlett.com/ekmps/shops/skibartlett/images/vintage-wooden-sledges-toboggans-no.5-4582-p.jpg ^^Thanks

What you just showed me there was pure awesomeness, thank you and you are obviously hired, builder, set creator good?

Hmm the music maybe an issue, but that is where people like upsilon come in, to make us music, yay!! Thanks zekes, if you cant make it small enough we can use tweakscale on the firespitter helicopter landing lengs the one that looks like a sledge :3 Thats another thing, mods, we need to discuss then asap

Can somebody make us a Teamspeak 3 server so we can discuss first hand our plan of action Thank you, because I have no idea

big enough to fit your signature

ok added the lot of you XD

Well the director is going to be doing a bit of everythingRevised a bit of the first scene to make it a bit more storyish Project Arctic Scene 1 Revised--------------------------------------------------------------13/11/14 It is 1784, a team of two explorers, Amundsen and Falcon Kerman, are on a journey to the North Pole, their mission is to be the first Kerbals to reach the pole. They are wearing thick woolly coats and are travelling by sledge with the rest of their gear. The sledge is worn and so textures will need to designed for it. Falcon is pulling the sledge whilst Amundsen is ahead, leading the way Film starts with a blowing wind noise passing passed the camera on the right speaker. There is a snow effect on the camera and there is also fog to represent a snow storm. The camera is looking across the ice of the North Pole of Kerbin. Camera switches to another position revealing the nothingness of the Arctic. The sound of footsteps and pulling fades in from the right speaker; there is also a ringing of metal (Like a series of bells). Amundsen appears on the right of the screen with Falcon appearing 5-10 seconds later, they both walk slowly until they reach the right of the screen. The sledge is worn and so textures will need to designed for it. Falcon is pulling the sledge whilst Amundsen is ahead, leading the way. The camera switches to a first person camera of Amundsen to make it look like you are looking through his eyes. The camera pans left and right slowly. I'm not 100% happy with it, especially my awful way of describing things XD but thats why we have script writers, also can somebody make us a teamspeak server, i have no idea how to do it?

We dont know yet, the script hasn't been finished Is that you joining or... Ok labhouse, thanks I'll put you down Can I put you down as a director, we have a few people who do this thing regularly and so I think you'd be a great asset to the team, I know that it is going to take hours, but that is why we are assembling a massive team, as for the mods and save files, I was think we just have one as then there is no difference, and when somebody creates a scene they send the save to me and I update the download. As for the mods that we need, yeah we need to get all of those sorted, but that is why I am getting scriptwriters, so that we can see what mods we need. As for the question about the location, only the first section of the film is in the arctic, then it is spread around the kerbin system and all. Overall it should be a good film, and a lot of commitment needs to be put into it by me, which i am willing to do as the end result maybe amazing. It's an ongoing project only starting this year so...

oh course, zekes why wouldn't we want you, this is going to be the best film ever, can somebody persuade nassault to come have a look?

sorry, once again i dont have time to take part as now im making a full feature film using ksp so...

Ill add you to; musician, recording, building, voice acting and script also put you down for advertising

Well ive adapted the script, as i was wondering would it be possible to use texture replacer or what not to make the kerbals wear woolly coats for their journey to the arctoc, also we need some of the part textures to be adapted to make them look a bit rougher so we can make a sledge out of them

Right then, need another job, modders and texturers Ill add them to the OP

at the moment we are developing the script, the first scene without the scriptwriters is on the first page, so yeh, at the moment we only have an idea of one thing, the gigantic object that they find in the ice

Ok added Morthgal_dwarf, what do you want to do Cg?

unfortunately the image isnt working, but ill add you

Here is what I have come up with so, far the script writers will make it better and all but it is WIP Project Arctic Scene 1---------------------------------------------------------------------------13/11/14 Film starts with a blowing wind noise, camera looks out across the nothingness of the North Pole, camera switches to a different angle revealing more nothingness (When camera switches it makes a loud shutter noise) Camera gets knocked over suddenly as the vehicle rushes past it, radio chatter between car and Arctic Base. The area is thick with fog Outlander 2: Arctic Base 1 do you read, over Arctic Base: We hear you loud and clear Outlander 2; you should be approaching Outlander 1 shortly, over Fog begins to lift, allowing camera to see the remains of Outlander 1, debris is scattered everywhere, body panels are hanging loose and the rear left wheel is popped. Outlander 2 pulls up on the right side of Outlander 1. Olav Kerman: We have a situation, over. Arctic Base: Have you found Outlander 1? Outlander 2 please respond with video feed, over. Camera becomes active, with grains and static across screen, on Outlander 2, Shackleton Kerman appears in front of camera and pans the camera round to show Outlander 1 on the left of the screen. Shackleton Kerman: We have found Outlander 1, but Amundsen Kerman is still missing, we have found the remains of Mawson Kerman, we’ll follow the debris and see where that takes us, over. Arctic Base: Affirmative, continue with the search, weather reports show a large storm heading in from the south and 039 degrees 450 miles from your current location, Arctic Base out. Camera switches off; Olav and Shackleton Kerman board Outlander 2 and set off following trail of debris. Camera fades and enters with it being night time; the lights are illuminating the snow as the car follows the long line of debris. Camera fades again and enters with the sky slightly brighter because of the sun. The car pulls up along the arctic shelf that marks the end of the arctic, fog lingers around obscuring the view but a light is just visible from the bottom. With the light is a large mysterious structure. Camera pans upwards slowly to show size. Light beam envelops both Kerbals, blocking out view and screen. Dramatic music as title appears. Like how I used explorers names
