Rescue Me!

Work continues on season two - I knocked out a good 10 pages on 2.02 last week - which, for me, is pretty quick. Yes, I said quick. I've also begun work on the s2 credits video, which I think is going to be loads better than s1's if I can overcome my limited video editing skills and get it right. The concept is there, I just hope I can do it justice.

I'm also working on the s2 web site, which is also serving as my project for my Dreamweaver class, and will also be used as the template for Daredevil s2 and The Family Spell s1. There are still a few issues to be worked out, but it'd coming along well.

As for the season itself, I spent a good portion of March working out some of the kinks in the overall story we already had in place, adding some new elements, dropping some old ones, and just trying to make it better. I think it's going to be pretty damn good, if I do say so myself. Many of the issues that cropped up toward the end of season one have been addressed and the season as a whole is looking much, much stronger than our initial outing.

A quick little hint for the upcoming season's major arc: green. In so many ways.

I've also been posting promo graphics for s2 in the forums with some casting choices for new s2 recurring characters. Some you may have guessed already, and some you may not have. Some are new, original characters, and there are a few I haven't posted yet. To sum up the bulk of them, here's a list of some new faces you'll be seeing in s2, both original and comic-inspired:

Paul Campbell as Harry Osborn
Dane Cook as Daredevil
Sean Patrick Flanery as Patrick Jensen
Kat Von D. as Anna Watson
David Anders as Landon Bryce
Michael Emerson as Doctor Miles Warren
J. August Richards as Coach Marcus Briggs
Brent Spiner as "The Benefactor"

Also, before I wrap this up, the new credits video required that I change theme songs. The new theme is "Rescue Me" by Zebrahead and can be downloaded here: http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/3/20/907004/rescue_me.mp3
