Important News Regarding The TalkHorror Show
11-16-2009, 08:23 AM
I have not wanted to post this. Hell, maybe that's why it has taken me quite some time to get around to it. You all deserve an explanation, though. Here's the deal regarding the next episode(s) and all the episodes after that.
Right now, we're having set difficulties. We're not going to be filming at the same location we have been. We're going to be switching over to another place, but the problem is there is some work being done to the place and it probably won't be ready for at least a solid month. Well, I hope so, anyway. This is probably the worst thing that could happen at this point in time, but I have no other option at the moment. I said in the last episode that it wouldn't be the end of the show and that we would be pimping out a new episode every two weeks. Then, this stuff happens and it looks bad for the show. Convenient, huh? I don't want anyone to think that. That's why I didn't even want to post this, but I have to! I don't want anyone to think that since Halloween is over and horror stuff is dying down for most people, that the show would also die down.
The show means a lot to me and I do mean that. The show will go on! I don't care what happens, the show is here to stay. I simply love doing it and I love that all of you are so involved with the show. So, what have I been doing and what am I going to do with the remaining free time? Well, even though there has been no actual filming, I have been working on the show. Just because there's been an awkward silence, there's still stuff going on behind the scenes. This break is a bad thing, but it is also a good thing. The break has given me more time to step back and take a look at things. Also, it's given me time to do some shopping. I've been shopping specifically for the show on multiple trips.
I invested in some lights for the show. When I say lights, I do mean lights! I purchased two big ass lights. In other words, when the show comes back, things are going to look a whole lot cleaner and better. These babies are high powered lights, so we should have no more problems with lighting. These things are what some of the pros use.
I bought enough make up to hopefully last the show a full year.
I've also purchased props, accessories, etc... You'll just have to see when the new episode pops up.
Keep in mind, I'm still not finished shopping for the show.
I've also made a few changes to some of our gear. Hopefully with the next episode you'll also notice this. Also, I found out the problem with the little glitches in the show. Hopefully we will not encounter anymore of those in future episodes.
Taking a step back from the show, I have realized a few things. I just jumped into this thing at full speed. There was short prep time as I wanted the first episode to be up on the first of Oct. Let me tell you, one episode per week is break-neck speeds and it's not healthy for the show itself, either. Now I realize a few things.
When I very first started on the first episode, things were going to be WAY different. With the look of the show and the direction of the show. However, once things started rolling I made some big changes and got new equipment. Now, I realize that I left some things out that I was going to originally do. As we went along, I added some of those elements to the show, but didn't have enough time to add as much as I would have liked. In the new episode, you're going to notice some changes, though. First off, the show will still have all the segments and stuff, but with more added to the actual show. You'll just have to wait and see.
I've been working on the script for the next episode and also coming up with new ideas that I will be implementing into the show. Now here are some spoilers that will hopefully wet your fangs a little bit.
#1: There IS going to be possible two new characters added to the show. I don't want to say too much, but I think you're going to love them.
#2: Myself (Bojangles) will have a full segment. Due to time constraints, I cheaped out on myself quite a bit. I mean, between writing, editing, filming, etc....... I didn't have much time to myself. That's going to change.
#3: There will be a new intro song with your main man Bo on the mic. I've already started writing the lyrics for it and some of the guitar. I'm even thinking about doing a music video for it. I'm hoping it will be included in the next episode. When the new episode comes out, I want you guys to know that it's coming in full force. In other words, the new intro song will be metal! Don't worry, our current intro song will not be tossed away. It will always play during the credits and possibly during the intro of some episodes.
#4: There will be new segments added. Also, the short screamer segment will also be included more in the show. I already have ideas for some new ones.
That's all I'm going to give you for now, my horror hounds. I hope none of you have given up on me, nor the show.
