Since most people here doesn't have a lot of experience working within the movie industry I made a list of some scenes we could have in this role play. I also thought it would be a good idea to let everyone know that if we are going to be going about this role play like a movie there are going to be several time skips. These are easy to plan, but can be difficult when dealing with people having conversations and other people waiting. Something to keep in mind and perhaps talk about later. Since we aren't actually making a movie of course none of these events are must have scenes, but I think they could be perfect opportunities for character interaction on and off the set.

[indent]Script Read: This is where the whole cast of the movie and a bunch of bigwigs come together and read the script. This is often done in front of a group of reporters and usually has a party like atmosphere before and after the reading (It is a non-fancy party so actors and the like have been known to show up in jeans and a t-shirt while producers are in suits and the like.)

Trailer Filming / Early Movie Promotion: This after a few months of filming and is often held during a large break in the production. This could be during a location change or during a planned absence of a cast member. This is where cast members will do one on one interviews with people like E News reporters and Inside the Spotlight shows. They are highlighted usually by a public party where the trailer for the movie is shown and then uploaded onto the internet.

The Grind: This is a term used to describe the largest blog of filming. It usually lasts between 7 to 9 months, but with major films it can be up to a year if you include travel and logistics of everything prepped before hand. Here you see the movie basically being completely filmed and the chaos of the industry in full force. The closer to the end the more chaos there is to handle in every department. 

Editing & Promotion: After the filming is complete there is plenty to be done in the editing room. A large portion of the crew and cast are done at this point and will go on promotional tours such as late night talk show appearances. There are often special events that take place such as private screenings of finished sections. This is the biggest promotional push for the movie. Get the actors to stay it is their best work and they are really excited to show it to the world. 

Opening Night: The true red carpet moment. All the build up leads to this night. Most of the cast and big name members of the crew will attend. I figure most people know what goes on before the movie and during. There is always an after party and these are often hosted by the director as is a custom started in the mid 50's. These parties are usually where tabloids get their 25,000 dollar photo of some actress near a co-starting actor and rumor mills can start. Though with 24/7 paparazzi that moment can happen just about anytime anywhere.[/indent]

If people have questions feel free to ask. I am going to get started on my first IC post. I figure it will be my character getting the call that his company is going to be contracted to do location for the movie this role play will be doing. Since they wouldn't tell him what the project is completely until later it shouldn't lock any important information.
