Yay! Machinima Delayed!

Just Another Day On the Job has been delayed, until dare I say it; July. This is because of a few issues with filming and cutting, one of our voice actors being busy and a few other factors; like script re-writes (the original ones I wrote were crappy, so I re-wrote them). We'll try and get the first episode out earlier, but honestly I want to get a two-week time table going (one episode coming out every two weeks on a Friday).

All we've managed to film is the first episode, although saying that we have cut it. We've also recorded some of the dialogue and figures cross; it can be finished by the end of next week. Now, you might be thinking, but David (that's me by the way), if you can finished an episode that quickly then why not release in June? Well basically because the whole production crew have exams. You can also blame Blubba Productions if you like; I always do when something goes wrong.

I hope people care enough to read about the machinima (maybe you should comment on this blog), I also want to make the point, as I have on many-a-forum that the quality of the trailer does not represent that of the entire machinima. If you didn't like the trailer then you might still like the machinima who knows? Also, any useful comments on how to market the machinima would be very helpful, and if they work, you'll get a special thanks and a sandwich (well you won't actually get a sandwich, we can't afford any).
That's all for now folks, thanks to everyone so far who have been supportive towards us.
Yours Humbly
David Smith, Grand Overlord of Bouncy Cat productions

OMG! A 7RA1L3Rzz!!one1

Well here it is, the grand unveiling of the trailer for Just Another Day On the Job. Hope you like it!

Lololol - Spanish

Just Another Short Film

Update: Trailer next Friday, Another Short Film tomorrow

Hello everyone (and by everyone I mean the two people who visit the blog),
Due to a large amount of cutting getting done today (well actually yesterday), I can say that, if nothing catastrophic happens the trailer for Just Another Day On the Job will be release next Friday - all we need to do is add dialogue! There will also be another short film (similar to the trip mine one), which will be posted tomorrow and is very, very cool (I should know, I did it!).

Expect updates more frequently now. We need to market Day On the Job; blog about it, post on forums e.t.c. Help us, so we can help you (I don't really know how we'll help you...). Really I shouldn't really be asking you to help us market it until you see some footage, but I will anyway, because that's how I (Rick) roll.

I can't promise you it will be amazing and it doesn't really get going (or becomes hugely funny) until episode 7 (basically I wrote episodes 1-6 a long time ago), but we'll release a few good specials! However, what I can promise is it will be better than Deserted, because seriously that Machinima sucks, I mean Russian Elites - What the fuck! I do realise I'm unintentionally plugging them, but it really is shit! One of their videos has over 300,000 views! How! So make sure something better has more views!
Thanks for Reading!

Short "wtf?" Film.

Trailer Delayed

That's basically it. The trailer is delayed and will probably take another two weeks to release (due to the editing schedule). So in the meantime do something fun, play some Halo 3 - The new maps are awesome!

Yes, it is Still Happening.

Ok, this blog is basically telling you that we still exist and are working on the Machinima as you probably read this, and yes; May still looks like the release date, although it will be late May. Also, we will try and get a trailer out by Friday week, so you'll actually have a reason to come to the site. Also I wanted to give you a little information of how it Day on the Job will work when it is released:
- One episode will be released every two weeks, generally on a Friday.
- The First Season will run for Twelve Episodes, each about four minutes in length.
- There will be a Mini-Series running for four episodes after the First Season Finishes.

Blogs will be also set up for the three leading characters. Currently McLaughlin's one exists. Go on it and get and incite into his crazy world of kittens and sandwiches! Just to say it's not written by me, although I did create the character, it is written by Matt, McLaughlin's voice actor, who is basically the other key person on the Machinima and may be blogging here aswell. He's kinda more involved on the tech side of the machinima, whereas I'm on the writing and drama side.

I will try to set up the other blogs for Park and Sarge (*cough* Red vs. Blue) later this month. Just to clear things up I voice act for those two. I should give a mention to (Sami) Akbulut who is helping out a lot with machinima relate activities and will voice a yet to be revealed character later in the series (yes, there will be more than three characters *shock*). Also, there are some other people I should give a shout out to, but frankly I really can't be bothered.

And finally just to say, thanks for the offers of help, but right now we are fine doing what we're doing. I promise though if I ever do need some help, I will ask for it.

So that's pretty much it. The Short is: Trailer in two weeks, Machinima premiere Late in May. Stay tuned: things are about to get interesting...

Just Another Day on the Job

Ok, let me start. My name is David Smith and I am a co-founder of Bouncy Cat Productions, a group of individuals based in North West London. Currently Bouncy Cat productions is working on two main projects, however I am here to write about just one - A comedy machinima entitled Just Another Day on the Job, or Day on the Job for Short. It's in a similar vein to Red vs. Blue and I hope it will be as well received. Currently Day on the Job is slated for May 2008 (although delays are likely), and will be posted on Machinima.com, Youtube, gametrailers and hopefully more sites, but right now I'm just trying to market this thing.

The first in game shot is of one of the characters and is taken from the second episode. The machinima itself focuses around three major characters Andrew Park, Matthew McLaughlin and Sarge (pictured above), who are stationed at an outpost on a human controlled colony. Take note of this, the machinima takes place in the Halo universe (owned by Bungie), but is not really canon, similar to something like Deus Ex Machina, the Codex or even RvB. Basically characters from the Haloverse may be mentioned and even have cameos, but the events depicted in the machinima didn't actually happen in Halo canon, unless Bungie said they happened.

That's all for now, but I'm hoping to release a trailer next month, so check back to the blog soon!
