My friend, I've been planning, and trying to do fan films FOR years. Ever since the first episode 2 fan trailer came out, I've been doing lightsabre effects, animation things in blender, blue screen effects, and other things, for almost 5 years now. I know the trade very well, and I've finnally sat down and started doing something serious.


Yet again, Gold seems to think that all it takes is a mild interest in something to accomplish.

I'm telling you Sab: This isn't how film projects get completed. At all. No one accomplishes film projects by tossing together a handful of people's general knowledge. It just doesn't fit the bill for the EMENCE amount of work even a half hour film takes. If he were simply filming some non-action movie, I'd STILL be skeptical, not because it's SF_Gold, but because if you've never worked on someone ELSE'S film project who knows what they're doing, it's impossible that he's going to be able to accomplish all of the requirements for a film. I mean, hell: Have you seen Cazor's crap? Case in point.

Maybe it only has a few models from outside sources in a lame mockup scene, and a script we haven't seen yet, but it's no different than your average TC announcement. Sure we'd tell that person they probably don't have the time/skill to do it, but we wouldn't smash their face in with it.


The problem that frustrates much of the community is that the message is just not getting to him. The message is that you need to show some real work in order to support such ambitious projects. Coming out with the idea for a big project won't do you any good until you have shown that you are willing to put in the effort and time to follow through with the massive amounts of work ahead. Sure, if a person haven't realized this when he first tries to start a big TC or something similar, it's alright. But to contine to ignore this message over and over and over and over and over...well, it does get annoying. There were even some respectful and civil posts explaining this concept to him, but he just doesn't read them.

If you were in Gold's position, trying to make a movie or short film or even a cool little clip, would you want everyone to be harping on your *** about previous things you've said you were doing, but weren't, or couldn't? Unless you all think Gold is going to be a pathological liar all his life, which you really shouldn't, you have to think that at some point he may stop trying to impress us and actually maybe want to dabble a little bit in some film type stuff.


It is people's reaction to this sort of thing comes from the fact that everyone seen this before. It's alright if he has big dreams, but this thread is unfolding quite similar to "previous" incidents. The solution to this abuse is to actually show some hard work toward these projects he comes up with. It is true that he has a bad reputation behind, but a solid way to fix his image and produce more positive reaction in these threads is to actually change his ways. Prehaps "dabble a little bit" in film before declaring the start of such a major production? It is alright if he just asked general film production questions before releasing such a load of a thread that, I'm sure, everyone knows how it will end.

Quote:
Maybe that's now? So, if you can help him with, please offer, and if not, be quiet? All you're going to do is discourage him to the point of really failing, and then next time he wants to attempt some creative project, he's gonna be less enthusiastic and he's gonna remember how no one would help him... not even that, how everyone was completely over the top in telling him how he was basically useless. Which isn't true.


Yes, there are some a**es here, probably including me. But you have to understand we have seen this unfold before. Will this be the one project he will actually put much work into and succeed? Maybe. It may be only an "attempt" at "some creative project," but there are sure much better ways for him to reach his goals without running head first into the dark, grabbing the attention of everyone here.

10 out of 10 times he comes on here with this bull****, it's just that, bull****.


PS, I bet his girlfriend will play someone from the hutt family. If not, she'll have to play right hand man to someone. Because we all doubt that a streetwise gangsta ninja mexican actually has a girlfriend. I mean, he's too busy beating up his enemies and getting temporary tattoos to prove he beats up his enemies.

The problem is also that he has started 10+ 'projects', most of which are unrealistically ambitious. Then he rants and raves about his current 'project' until he announces that he's abandoned it. Then the cycle starts over again. It's gotten so bad that I consider it trolling. And I truly do think it's actually trolling; not legitimate.

Theres also been many times he's presented work that is IN NO WAY HIS OWN and intended for us to think it was his.

And after we've called bull****, he's all "WTF, I never said they were mine that means they aren't LOL!"
2006-04-12, 9:30 AM #86
Poor SF... He gets the third degree every time he tries to start something. :(
2006-04-12, 9:31 AM #87
Yup.

And it's going to stay that way.

No it's not.

We're not in any way corrupt or evil. (Okay, so I can be pretty darned evil. You have me there.. but I'M TOTALLY IN THE RIGHT.)



He's the work stealer, and the liar. Not us.

We're tired of his crap.
2006-04-12, 10:18 AM #90
But he is NOT GOING TO LEARN

So we have to learn to ignore him or not let it bother us. If we don't learn, who's worse?

I'm a work stealer? I'm a liar? WILL YOU GOD DAMN DROP WHAT HAPPENED ALMOST 1 YEAR AGO AND LET THINGS LIVE. Seriously, I only "stole" one work, and I've since then apologized. I learned my lesson, and I know many people have gone through similiar situations, and yet, you don't pick on them. Nooo, it has to be me, just me. I'm not asking for you guys to do more than a couple of damn drawings to help production make the props and costumes. ITS TOO ****ING MUCH TO ASK FOR A ****ING HAND.
Nothing to see here, move along.

We pick on every work stealer and vapor project poster that has ever posted on here.

You just happen to be the only work stealer/annoying vapor project poster that hasn't gotten the message and left already.

Ignoring him won't make him go away.

That almost never works.

I mean, has ignoring me made me go away? PFFFFT NO.

Are you serious? I'd say the fact that you've never released any of your work to anyone is proof enough.

You have nothing to really show for any of these projects you've worked on, other than crap renders, turd sprites, and other people's engines you've edited.

Thats crap.

That'd be awesome.

Especially if I kicked children in the teeth for complaining at the store.

He gets people to like him by being in a ninja kempo bull fighting gang ninja war.

Also, he beats people up and gets temporary tattoos of his victories afterwards to attract all the hot latino ladies.

Jesus Christ you people. I can't believe what has unfolded here. Some of you actually attempted to help him or stop the derail and we appreciate that. Some of you just posted random crap. Some of you intentionally antagonized Gold.

Expect the ban list to increase in size by quite a bit.

Seriously people. We're better than this petty crap. It really does suck that we have to do this. But I guess we have to..
Code to the left of him, code to the right of him, code in front of him compil'd and thundered. Programm'd at with shot and $SHELL. Boldly he typed and well. Into the jaws of C. Into the mouth of PERL. Debug'd the 0x258.

First of all:

[http://mbeggar.out-post.net/misc/banstick.JPG]

Okay next-


This is fricken rediculous. He asked for HELP. You dont need to go into the thread just to rain on his parade. Telling him to STOP working on his project is not useful at ALL. I saw maybe like 5 or 6 posts in here that were helpful. So what if its his first attempt at a film. Everyone has a first film, model, map, drawing.

Just because you feel you have more experience than him, HELP him, dont freaking tell him to stop. You know who you are. Im dissappointed really. Making a film is FUN. Who cares if he doesnt know what hes doing, its called LEARNING. You make mistakes, but you go back and fix them.

You people really need to stop ruining threads just because Gold is TRYING to do something that he thinks will be fun. You are NOT better than him because youve made films before, or because you "understand" these things better.

Its disgusting. And if ANY of you expect to go into college and get a job for this sort of thing I hope I never have to work with you. You will NOT get anywhere with this kind of attitude.
