Capping Cappers

GersonK — Wed, 11 Apr 2007 03:26:26 +0000

After sitting on these pics for far too long, I’m finally going to
give you good people a chance to cap your fellow cappers from our
capfest last month in NYC here, at Inventing Situations. And since I don’t have that many pics, I’m padding the occasion out with a showing of the film whose msting made Matteus come down and caused the gathering in the first place, Dial Comes to Town, then showing the pics another time for latecomers.
The times? Tuesday 4/17 3 PM Eastern and again Thursday 4/19 8 PM eastern.

And for you interested parties, writing on the next wiki msting, Rest
and Health starring Dick York, has begun. The writer’s audition is being clever enough to find the page.

And one more thing, if you haven’t visited Inveting Situations lately, on your next visit be sure to notice the new hopefully easier to read color scheme and nifty buzzword enabled auto-refresh gallery. It’s not just for lurker’s anymore. Though the lurker’s gallery is still available with this link.

Thanks to all who participated! Thanks to all who participate in the next one.

Thanks to all who promote it.

Another Capper Msting!

At long last, the latest capper group msting is done!

Part 1:

Part 2:

We put it together over at the Capper Wiki. It was written by Jazzsoda, Matteus, Pumaman2o, Soozcat, YibbleGuy, and myself, and performed by ArchHallJr, Jazzsoda, Matteus, tinaw, and myself. A big round of thanks to all who helped out. I’m kind of proud of us.

The WikiMsting is done! Now, we make the next one.

Happy New Ear everyone! Just in time for 2007, the first WikiMsting is done. Check it out below:

Thanks to for helping to write it. There’s some stuff I really like about it, and other things I don’t. But I think it came out pretty well for a first effort. Thanks to all who helped out (especially AgentQ, HanoverF, Matteus and Pumaman2.o).

You can help make the next one even better by going to the capper wiki now and helping us pick the next film to riff. Then check back after the seventh to help write riffs and join in the production. In fact, more than anything else what the project needs is at least one more person who can record lines for it.

And the weiner is…Dick Tracy!

The polling on our next serial is closed, and the results were as follows:

Dick Tracy 4
Zorro 3
Radar Men 2
Undersea Kingdom 2

Admittedly, that’s pretty close for a polling system that would make Diebold blush. That said, we’re still sticking with Dick. And just to change things up, I’m going to show them on Wednesdays at 6 PM eastern instead of Mondays. The first episode premieres on January 10th.

While I’ve only gotten grabs for one episode so far, it looks like it may supply some good capping moments, and the guys in suits running around syndrome manifests itself more mildly than I’d feared. It’s worst symptom is the fact that on wide shots it can be hard to tell if our hero is present. I will say that I’m pretty frustrated by the image quality to file size ratio on the archive files, publicdomaintorrents looks like a viable option though, but that’s my problem.

Since there was no clear loser in the poll, all three non-winners will be up for selection in the next poll, maybe with a new candidate thrown in. Also, Don’t forget to tune in New Year’s Day at 6 PM for the conclusion of Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe. If you’re too hungover to make it then, it will be repeated on Tuesday the 2nd at 8 PM.

Lastly, I hope to have the WikiMsting completed by Friday at the absolute latest, so time’s running out if you’d like to volunteer to record some lines.

The Capper Msting Needs You!

Phase Two of the msting project has begun over at the Capper Wiki. If you missed phase one, it’s a great time to join. If you did help out in phase one, first off – thanks, and second off, you should be sure to keep participating now by voting on the riffs to make sure yours make the final cut! In addition to needing people to mark off the riffs they think should be in the final film, we need folks to volunteer to record lines or add to the production in whatever ways they can think of, like maybe suggesting a title for the series. VOTE NOW.

Anyway, here’s the movie we’re riffing:

Help Make a fan msting

Cappers and mstie fan movies, seems like a perfect combo, but with one or two exceptions, most of them haven’t gotten too far. Seems like the power of wiki and youtube might be a new route to make one. So, I’ve decided to try and start another one – check it out here. You can view the movie below then add your riffs.
