name. not sure. Chopped: Mandalorian Edition is there too much IP theft there? we could always change it. don't people do spoofed stuff? is quill the bill burr character? no. oh he's the "i have spoken guy". wow i'm ntg. :B other future guest contestants and / or judges. boba fett the marshal Fennec (asian sharpshooter lady) bill burr lol @ werner herzog. some of these people would be good for one ep. have them say horrible things like their character would. i could do some horrible impressions. starbuck boca raton - she could cut herself and say FRACK! *cross show spice* but the rest of the time she says horrible made up words very woodenly. "this dish was inspired by my time on waka flob bidda boo. teh grand faldor of shimsah once told me.... i do think the nurse droid should be one of the contestants for sure. have their arms moving in a super fast almost blur and they finish WAYYY before everyone else. and at some point tries to self-destruct. or at least expresses the wish to. is it taking things too far if cara dune is a contestant and we have her say racist holocaust things?  god! trying to make something good out of THIS crap is worse than the holocaust!@#  anyway, we could eventually do everyone if this turns out decently and isn't like 10,000% more of a chore than we want to put into it! but man i think it could be REALLY REALLY good and funny. doesn't have to be the same judges every time either. i think Grogu has to be a constant, and maybe quill? have to see how he pans out. but on the actual chopped they rotate a few judges. often there is two "regular" food (lol typed fodo at first) network judges and then a guest judge for the 3rd seat. i'm just saying we could play around with that, along with the contestants. *we have a jawa contestant* *they disassemble their station and leave with all the parts* everyone:  mandohost chairman: well! looks like it's down to YOU two! |

name. not sure. Chopped: Mandalorian Edition is there too much IP theft there? we could always change it. don't people do spoofed stuff? i think because we are spoofing it it's ok. what's funny is we're taking both IPs and merging them together. I believe parody is under the fair use umbrella. it doesn't mean we couldn't be sued. it just means it's possible we could win under fair use. basically, i think we'll be ok.
one thing i've seen is that if a huge organization like disney or food network, i forget who owns them but their big, sued us, we couldn't actually afford the litigation, and therefore we have to fold and it doesn't matter if we were right. that's the big flaw in the system. yes, i figure it doesn't matter if characters are dead in the actual show.
mandalorian chopped does have endless possibilities. what we'll have to see is if this is all too much work. I'm willing to give it a whirl and see how it goes.

yeah it boils down to whether we can actually do something like this without it taking a year of painstaking effort. :hyper; mostly for you!!@# ;shoulderhands;

will do. I'm hopeful that I can use some of your horrible drawing skills. that you don't have to draw it in the animation software. should be able to import stuff. you may have to figure out how to draw vector graphics.  |

Post by ditkanate on Apr 14, 2021 13:46:46 GMT
notes to my fine self:
1)google what vector graphics are
2)??
3)profit
ok so i actually did google vector graphics. makes sense (sort of) that it would be useful when you want to has characters that can be used in various situations and retain their shapes, etc. while being resized and moved and whatnot. i think? what i don't know: will i need something other than Paint? lol.
next step: google wad to draw with for vector purposes! ;hyuper;;

OK, i'll help you a bit with that. it's more that it is easier for me to import and use vector graphics in the animation software I plan to use. but if you draw something up in like paint, depending on how we were to use it, i'd have to redraw it in the actual animation software. but i think, need to double check, that i can import vector directly. i'll get back to you on all this. :B I'm still trying to figure this stef out too.
I did just find out that the adobe software i'm planning to use is basically rebranded Flash. which is what i know fairly well from teh past! so that' good.

Not necessarily. here's the deal. it depends on what needs to happen to the art. i honestly have know idea what i'm doing yet so... it's hard to say. if you wanted to draw say some super sweet backgrounds for our various sets, like the judge area, the cooking area, and well maybe that's it, but any others you want. Those just pop in and don't move so whip those up however you want.
I assume i'll make this 1920 x 1080 pixels for size. might as well go standard high def.
now for grogu if i want to animate him and have him move his arms and mouth and stuff, i need him to be an adobe animate object. i looked it up, and i can import vector files to animate, so that's good.
but! if we're just going to have like a basic drawing of our characters. and they don't really move except their mouths, then it wouldn't really matter. you could draw those up just fine and i would just add a mouth for the talking and then that's it.
AND i could also do it where you draw up say the mandalorian, and then i just virtually chop his arms and legs off and then they move south park style and it looks all shitty and that's fine too and then it wouldn't matter how you drew it either. so it all depends on how we want to do it. i just wanted to give you a heads up on what we're dealing with here.
lastly! if you have some ideas and the drawing is more of like a concept sketch that we may or may not be able to use in the actual production, that's fine too!! great even! i might be able to use. i might not. or maybe i use it as inspiration to make the character i want to animate. AND those original sketches can be super sweet signed super fan gifts!! :pointstoohaid: |

oohhh... superfan gifts!@# people will pay millions for an NFT of our first cartoon or whatever! or the original chopped mando set!
one thing about the mandalorian. as long as you leave his helmet on, he can talk and talk easy peasy!@# ;hyper;;

that's an extremely great point! how convenient! I've thought a little more about it and for our first (maybe only) episode i do really like Chairman/host: Mandalorian Judges: Grogu - obviously Quill - i have spoken Moff Gideon - i like the idea of having the main bad guy hanging out with the good guys and then for guests i'm thinking: a storm trooper - have to incorporate "there they are! blast 'em!" into script nurse droid - like you said, he self destructs in episode. probably after being eliminated, or better yet before! maybe then the judges still judge his meal and he doesn't even get eliminated  frog lady - one of the secret ingredients is her eggs! Werner Herzog - he's just great - but if something else makes sense or we have a good idea like with these others then i'm fine with someone else
there is 4 on chip chop chip right? man i haven't watched that in like a million years. anyway, i'm open on all these, but we need to pick 1st 4, don't really care past that point right now. |

I'm good with those 4. Yes there are 4 on chopped. 3 rounds to get to one winner. if we have the fish lady on there, i say her eggs are an ingredient in round one and she just kind of moans and puts her hands on her head and maybe tries to steal her eggs back from other contestants and doesn't make anything! or makes something dumb and horrible out of the non her-egg ingredients. but mostly just horrified hands on head expressions. grogu sneaks over and eats at least one egg b4 teh round is over. then she gets chopped and we're down to stormtrooper / droid / herzog. herzog could make derogatory remarks about teh fish lady caring about her dumb eggs and stuff.
;hyuper;;

perfect! you might have to get a herzog impression down!
announcer: how is froglady going to deal with this! oooo she does not seem to be handling it well.
Moff: she has to move on and make something or she won't make it through the round
quill: she knows her eggs better than anyone. she should use this to her advantage.
grogu: coos and eats an egg

ooh! the ingredient baskets should look like the grogu floating carrier thing! they hit a button to have the lid slide back and reveal teh ingredients. |

I shared with you a script. I'm sure you got it already in ur email ovur dare.
I believe that step 1... or maybe we're on 2. step one was the idea. now step 2 is write a script! this will make it so we can whittle it into something that is short and doable but also amazingly funny and sure to be a HUGE HIT!!!
it is already concerning long in scope. we need to figure out how we squeeze a half hour show down to a less than 5 minute highlight reel but still have it be funny and engaging and make sense.

yeah and also not take 8 years to make!@#$@#$
making a few minor edits to teh script thing. we definitely want to keep it as simple as possible!@# is there a way to take a still of actual chopped and use that and poop in our own characters? or do we just sketch it horribly?

Post by isthisamo on May 31, 2021 0:00:52 GMT
That is an option. I'd like to try our hand at horrible sketches and see how it turns out. can always revert to screenshots if it isn't working otherwise... wait wait... maybe it would make the most sense to do it the other way around. concentrate our efforts on making the characters. stick them in screenshots and then decide if that is too horrible redo the backgrounds with our horrible drawing!
also, looking at the script. so if the host is Mando, his lines don't suit him. am i crazy? the way ted allen is is not mando's personality. so we'll have to switch that up considerably, so it is more mando. i think. that is part of script i'm not happy with currently.

Post by ditkanate on May 31, 2021 1:21:03 GMT
well. yeah mando isn't really going to be very ted allen like. but it feels like he should be the main host guy. we can definitely have him say similar things as ted allen but in the mando low key helmet voice. and maybe toss in a "this is the way" here and there.
