Synopsis
Selene (AKA: "Silver") Heart is a young girl stuck in an a-social rut. When a mysterious user on a gaming forum sends her a 16-bit project to testplay, she becomes trapped in the world of Terra- an RPG world where everything is as it seems, and everything seems to be screwing with your mind. With Troy Storm -the courageous but not too bright hero- Ash Shadowhall -the brooding mercenary with a secret past- Tyrone -the really confused black mage- and Leeroy The Thief -professional scoundrel- Selene embarks on a journey to "fulfill her destiny" and return home.

Here are some pictures from set. All of the costumes were made, designed (and sadly, paid for :( ) by me. If you have me on facebook, check out "Terra Set Album" to see more.

Title: Re: Trapped in Terra Webseries (Update July 24)
Post by: Zerlina on July 25, 2009, 10:37:59 PM: Thanks for the responses :). We'll be uploading some set diary type stuff soon. We had to wrap early the other day because our camera wouldn't turn on. Took it to the shop and for some reason it was hot and smelled like burning. But they've replaced it now and so long as it doesn't rain we should be filming again tomorrow, bright and early at 6am :).

And you know what Timmy's is?

Another Canadian female on charas...I think one of us has to kill the other in a spectacular Highlander duel...THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE! :P

Nah, but really, welcome to the forum. :hi:

No offense. As an Otaku I approve it.

Also, Zerlina just happens to be my exact type, weren't for the accursed distance in between us I would be stuttering and at a loss of words, making a fool out of myself like when I'm around any other girl.

On retrospective, that wouldn't be that great.

We actually cast actors we found off craigslist, and every one but one turned out to be a big giant nerd. What are the chances?

So, good news everyone- we just (20 minutes ago) wrapped production! :)

Thanks. We looked really hard for a location that wouldn't look so specifically North American, and that had a very neutral look. So it's really good to hear that! :)
