A Newgrounds Movie??

Posted by NaKrown Dec. 9, 2008 @ 10:12 AM EST

Correct.
HI there. My name's Nathan and I'm making a feature-length documentary about Newgrounds and the evolution of the Internet. I'll interview a bunch of NG users along the way and I'd love your input and ideas. While it is going to be a serious and informative film in many ways, it will also be a lot of fun and it will feature tons of animation. Eventually, I'll be contacting some musicians and animators on NG about contributing to the finished product! Keep an eye on my user page for updates.

So... who wants to be in a movie?

Sounds fun, I'll gladly join in even though I'm a nobody.
Some may call me a BBS regular though...
But, in the grand scheme of things I'm probably still a nobody.

Who doesnt want to be in the movie?

Did I mention that I'm insanely handsome and popular?

You should come to London in January to see how we socialise.


Dec. 9, 2008 | 11:44 AM Malachy says:

This sounds great. There are some awesome animators hanging around newgrounds and it'd be great to see them get their brains picked on camera!

if you have time there are newgrounds meetups all the time. There is a London one in January, and one in Montreal next June (during a beer festival!) and every year the staff hosts the site's volunteer moderators in late June in Philly. There are also plenty of opportunities during the convention season to hang out at a Newgrounds booth. Comicon and I think they went to the Apple con in NYC last year. Always fun meeting strangers from the internet without getting raped in the back of a van with "candy" pasted on the window.... >.>

Go ask rtil, he is probably one of Newground's biggest animators, a lot of people respect and look up to him and he is motivating masses. He's even motivating me a lot, which is weird because no one has really motivated me to draw before.

He has to be a part of it.


Dec. 9, 2008 | 12:03 PM Vert says:

I'd doubt I be of much help or be able to participate in the movie, since I live (and, indeed, I was born) in Brazil, but as one of NG's older, regular (i.e., I regularly visit the site to deposit my exp) users, feel free to PM for input.

I mean, there are certain trends you spot after being here for a while...


Dec. 9, 2008 | 12:32 PM FidioProductions says:

I'll be in it... I'm making a new series... called ToddToons... lol...


Dec. 9, 2008 | 12:37 PM Hoeloe says:

Movies are great. The internet is great. Movies about the internet are WIN ;D

Sounds like an awesome project, good luck with it. I'm afriad the place I'm most known around is the BBS, but I am also taking part in making some cool flash projects like this: http://supernukebros.moonfruit.com/, I haven't really made a name for myself on the whole though. Good luck on finding people who have!


Dec. 9, 2008 | 12:42 PM Daniel-M says:

That sounds like a great idea, i hope you progress well


Dec. 9, 2008 | 12:42 PM xXxAlecxXx says:

i do!


Dec. 9, 2008 | 1:18 PM Chad-T says:

I just want to make out with your butt.


Dec. 9, 2008 | 2:03 PM Deadclever23 says:

Ooooh, pick me to be in the movie.
I'll try and help in any way possible.


Dec. 9, 2008 | 2:19 PM Murad136 says:

I'd love to be! I'll check here for updates!


Dec. 9, 2008 | 3:01 PM LeafWorthy says:

I'd love to contribute in any way, that's an awesome idea and I wish you the best of luck. Send me a message if you need any info or animation.

I'd like to be a movie. I make shitty flash movies and songs! =D


Dec. 9, 2008 | 3:37 PM Reyals says:

I'd be happy to contribute.


Dec. 9, 2008 | 3:51 PM Cally says:

Agreed - you should attend a meet-up or 3 ;)


Dec. 9, 2008 | 4:13 PM st1k says:

I would be honored to help you out :]


Dec. 9, 2008 | 4:32 PM Nicholas-Deary says:

I'll help you out :D


Dec. 9, 2008 | 4:37 PM David says:

I would love to be in a movie. Hopefully this desire does not hurt my chances of being in the aforementioned movie.


Dec. 9, 2008 | 4:53 PM absent says:

Sup Nathan.

I don't know what angle you're taking in this documentary (whether it's from the Flash/audio artists' perspectives, from the community perspective, or both). But, if you're looking to talk to a male teenage site moderator who lives in Philly... then you should talk to me ;)

I would probably be best able to talk about how Newgrounds and the forums specifically have been a kind of "new-age" community service for me through high school. I also got interested in Photoshop by making signatures for users in clubs here.


Dec. 9, 2008 | 4:55 PM speeling says:

Don't tell me you can't make a movie without a speeling...:P


Dec. 9, 2008 | 5:25 PM AustinBreed says:

Good luck.


Dec. 9, 2008 | 5:31 PM A-Wahl says:

Pick me! I want to be in a movie. Please? Or not. Whatever. :D
I'm not very good yet, but I'm working on it.


Dec. 9, 2008 | 5:45 PM Five-Iron says:

Interview Kingbastard. Find out how animations from newgrounds have helped him get more people listening to his music.


Dec. 9, 2008 | 5:52 PM NimbleElephant says:

I was just wondering if this was like a personal little project or if it's going to be released?


Dec. 9, 2008 | 5:58 PM jtm17 says:

Dec. 9, 2008 | 6:08 PM I-smel says:

Make sure to check in with rtil an see how much he loves newgrounds.


Dec. 9, 2008 | 6:18 PM atomic-noodle says:

I'd love to make some music for it.

Dec. 9, 2008 | 7:34 PM squidly says:

I want to join, I've been around this site for 2 years and saw when spam was at it's height, and when it collapsed.


Dec. 9, 2008 | 7:43 PM SkoolCool says:

Awesome idea! I doubt I'll be on it but I can let you know when I became popular so you can put me in ;)


Dec. 9, 2008 | 8:01 PM K0Nx says:

I'm a noone...
But I can't wait for the movie! :D


Dec. 9, 2008 | 9:20 PM luka says:

Wow. As a filmmaker myself I suggested that idea exactly a couple of WEEKS ago to Tom.


Dec. 9, 2008 | 10:58 PM JakBaronKing says:

How about me?

though...I'm not as good as other animators...

(shy)


Dec. 10, 2008 | 12:13 AM alucardxmeow says:

Sounds like a great idea!

I might not be that popular, but I'd be really grateful if I could star in this movie!


Dec. 10, 2008 | 1:05 AM Rig says:

I'm in Montreal, and I'd be glad to write some music for this :D


Dec. 10, 2008 | 6:15 AM Luis says:

Hopefully this casts newgrounds in a positive light... unlike Rina Chan's interviews which basically just go out to stir strife amongst animators.


Dec. 10, 2008 | 6:17 AM Jaye19 says:

lolzyr who doesnt want to be in an awesome movie like can I join :DDDDDD))))

^:)^


Dec. 10, 2008 | 6:20 AM Jaye19 says:
