As for the show itself, I think the best would be a comedy about a pirate gate camp in some null sec system border system. Waiting for ships to gank. Most episodes would have the pirates sitting there...with no targets, bored out of their minds. To pass the time, they start trading stories with each other. These stories would form most of the individual episodes. The tale of the dumb miner...a story about scamming someone out of millions, the ultimate corp heist... the 100 rifter capital ship kill...

Occasionally, the action would cut away from the flashbacks to show some actual action happening at the gate. To tie the whole thing together, several of the people who come through the gate happen to have had a role in previous flashbacks... thus coloring the pirates reaction to them.

Step 1:

Use the existing tools and make an ongoing series of YouTube videos, with high production values and a witty and action filled script. Get some big name voice actors if at all possible. Nathan Fillion is known for doing stuff like this, and it might also interest Karl Urban (who is known for taking roles in the SciFi fantasy genre simply because he personally prefers them)... he should be done with Judge Dread now.

Step 2: Make them engaging enough that they develop a cult following. Promote them, get them in the face of the public, link them everywhere... with luck win a few awards.

Step 3: THEN talk to someone about taking it to the next level, or simply enjoy the increased attention generated from YouTube.


Put these two ideas together by tomorrow![/quote]
