The Hour Blue Project Fundamentals

Posted From The U.S.

A brainstorm on the fundamentals this project will need:

• 2d & 2d animators
• visual sketch artists
• programmers
• IT whizzes
• web architects - people who understand wiki
• people with extra computers
• cool lawyers of the creative commons type
• publicity people
• writers & editors
• actors - digital and/or real (undecided)
• a basic script/story (in process)
• people to help flesh out the model - how do we get this into thousands of theaters/computer screens/mobile phones while bypassing all the traditional channels?
• movie critics - get involved now, so that we stay on a good course
• rabid cult fans - you are our lifeblood
• star trek/star wars/LOR fan film types - see bullet above
• people from all over the world
• linguists - we need to be able to work with people who speak languages other than my average english
• lots and lots and lots of computers linked through the web - (ex: SETI project?)
• open source software + software people already have
• luck
• determination not to quit
• some basic luck and serendipity
• a serious amount of spiritual zen & mojo
• a very high quality standard
