episode7trailer.mp...

Here is the trailer for episode 7, which will be up next friday! There was less material for me to work with this time, so I think it's a little shorter than usual (of course, not as short as last weeks trailer!) So without further ado, enjoy the trailer!

Episode 6: The Dragon Gym

This episode began the time where our team started recording other episodes because initially we wanted to get a girl to record her part...but pretty much any girl we could find was not willing to do it. So we recorded up to where misty comes in and put it off and started recording others (yea we have up to episode 10 recorded shhh). Eventually time was drawing near where we needed to get this episode done. At that time episode 7 was done and episodes up to 10 were written...so we NEEDED to get it done. Our team was sitting near the computers thinking if I was gonna be me as misty or master of rock. Eventually master of rock got a brilliant idea! He would be angry misty in his "Dockhag voice" and I would be misty in....well a less annoying voice then I did the other girl. Little did we know that it was going to work out sooo well

Okay...let's move onto the episode. So it begins with a loooong story.....about rubik's cubes. The whole concept of this story was based on me and taco man blurbing out a random year. That year happened to be 1974...and it just so happens that it was the year the Rubik's cube was invented. So from there we looked other events from that year. For example, the small part mentioning the movie "Earthquake"...Earthquake was released that year. The part about the audio message to Hercules constellation is also real...I think. Remember the part:

"TEAR DOWN THE GREEN WALL... so we all ran towards the green wall...than everything turned bright pink"

hmmm...Tear down the wall.....pink floyd...sound familiar?

This episode is when we really started to use more sound effects. My favorite is the Water Gun sound effect. But something that we used that I absolutely loved is Red's thinking process. It was my favorite part this episode. Our initial recording stopped after the battle with the annoying voice girl and didn't continue til much later with the actual battle. The part where Squirtle tries to use thunder, you probably heard an unusual sound effect. This is the "disabled" sound effect used in episode 7...oops. Next is the dreaded "That other move" the original idea was to have an explosion at the end, but to still have Squirtle alright. But we have been playing around with Audacity a lot and master of rock put together that...and we absolutely loved the idea...as for what happened....i don't wanna find out (shiver). I love the part immediately after "That other move" where everyone starts celebrating and acting like Squirtle did not turn into a demonic foul beast and completely murder that Starmie. I love how Brock appears in this episode to explain TM 34. When writing this part, me and Tacoman chose a TM at random...and it just so happened to be the TM that Brock gives to the player.

FAVORITE LINE TIME: Red-...can I have my badge now

Come back this Friday for a trailer for episode 7. It's a fun one

Red Squirtle Episode 6 Trailer

episode6trailer.mp.


Here is the trailer for episode 6, which will be up next friday! This episode will be quite interesting, and Red finally faces Misty! Also, we will be starting a new segment soon, so don't think Red is getting all of the spotlight!

Oh, confused about the trailer? Alex came up with the idea. We just couldn't resist, since there are so many different variations of "what" in episode 6. Most of the episode will also make you say it too...a little more than usual.

Episode 5 is up!

Oh boy......this episode was certainly an adventure. As you may have noticed, there isn't a jail in pokemon red/blue. So this is our first completely original episode! and as you saw, I went crazy with some of the things I put into it....Lets begin with the shattering of the fourth wall when Red says

"Why is this song so over played"

I thought that doing that would be fun. As you can see....I had a reason for all of those deaths, because I wanted Red to go to jail. Let's move onto the officer. When the officer was calculating the amount of deaths, master of rock improvised the math equation...little did he know he said

" sqaure root of 25 divided by 5"

...I hope he knows that the answer to that is 1 -_-....moving on. The main reason I wrote this episode is because I wanted to have Red adventure with a few people instead of his squirtle....that only says squirtle. When Red was crying and saying stuff like

"WHY DID I THROW MY LIFE AWAY"

you probably noticed that the music was not from pokemon.... It was from The World Ends With You, a very fun DS game. This is also the beginning of sound effects to be used regularly. We also edited onix's roar from the first episode. The Dr. Seus rhyme was written during school in about a minute....yea I'm a freakin' poet. The Lines...

Red- They do not have wings

Brock- But indeed they do have fins

Red- How does this help us

sound very...anime like and was completely by accident, but it sounds cool...When the creepy guy sends out the magikarps, we had to (obviously) pre-record that...we recorded 5 different tracks with each having 3 different voices. During that recording in the middle somewhere I said

"Karping Magic"

If you can find it...congrats me fellow/fella...oh and at the end I sing

"Maaaaaagiiiic"

hehe :D. I love the whole break the targets thing...it was so much fun to do. It is revieled in this episode that Red has no education!!!! The argument is completely improvised to...that was also fun to do...I loved this entire episode! The second poem was also written in like a minute...yea I'm naturally gifted...oh if anyone has a sand symbol...i want to see it.

Time to count the Legend of Zelda references...lets see...2! Yay!...I love how Brock happens to have an ocarina of time on him. During the writ ting of this episode I was playing lots of Phantom Hourglass...so I HAD to include some sorta reference. I also like to note that they are in a pretty luxurious jail if they have an air conditioner.

FAVORITE LINE TIME

"Oh crap a big hole"

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

During the death of the police man...I was cracking up...I was glad I was not in that part. You may be wondering what professor oak was going through...well I don't know either all we know is that he came through the target room and grabbed Red's pikachu.

Come back this Friday for a trailer for episode 6...also...do I smell a holiday coming? hmmmm ;)

Episode 4 is up!

I have mixed feelings about this episode....I don't think this was my best writing I have done...but at the same time it has one of my favorite parts ever.Let us talk about this episode. The beginning was originally going to be Red going into cerulean city, but the Zubat scene was added later after the episode was written. This is also the first time Squirtle has fainted. The whole part about the door-less house is to make fun of all the houses in Pokemon Red/Blue that only have windows...I mean seriously, who would make a house with no door. Later when Blue comes in the episode, he tells Abra to use some weird move....aka teleport. If you were wondering I said something similar to this

Blue- alright abra USE THE ULTAMATE POWER SUPER DUPER LALA TYPE SECERT MASTERFUL INCREDIBLE AWESOME FOX-TROT APPLE SEED MOVE!

Later after the match, they talk about how Blue will fill out his dex before him....I just remembered...I forgot to give them their pokedexes....oops. When we got to the nugget bridge, odd emotions were thrown everywhere...seems fimiliar? Well these are our portrayal of the stages of grief cleaver huh?....no.....oh okay. Time for my favorite line ever!

Rocket- you can't run from a trainer battle

Red- yea I can, watch me

I love these lines soooo much. Later, when we are at Bill's house, Red pushes the yellow button and well...kills him. Did some of those sounds sound familiar to you? Well they should
Here's a list of sounds used

-Smoke Detector
-Lawn Mower
-Two different kinds of electric drills
- Microwave
- Typewritter
- Vacuum Cleaner
- Dish Washer
- Paper Shreader

That was fun to make....Anyways tune in this Friday for a trailer for episode 5...and oh boy it's a doosy

What...? Halloween episode? You really want to know about that? fine....

Well as you know know....Red's Pidgy can fly! wheee. Let's begin with a question everyone has...What in the world is the chocolate dunkaroo? well.... this


...yes Red dressed up as a gram cracker dipped in chocolate. The reason we used this is because we liked Dunkaroos as a child and I just happen to just think of it randomly. Later when we get to oak, you may have noticed the familiar, yet unfamiliar tune. Well that's oaks lab with the pitch brought down and revesed. Other than that there's not much else to talk about....so yea tune in this friday for a trailer!
