Hmm... You know your stuff, Hermesean. I like the shape it takes.

What about sound part? Sounds, music, voice...

Might I suggest good old Obi Wan's "For over a thousand Generations the Jedi Knights were Guardians of Peace and Justice, in the old republic, before the dark times, before the empire".

Always works so well, Sir Alec Guinness we miss you.
"If the Council had things their way, the entire order would be nothing but Zombified Yes monkeys with no opinions of their own."

"The true measure of a man is not how he lives but how he dies. Its not what they do in life but what they did before dying that proves their worth"

Yeah we could have that line right at the beginning.

We need someone with an inspiring voice to do some dialogue at the end.

Something like 'We are the Jedi order. We are the force.' or something like that (yes I know that is a little cheesy :D)

OK, I've thought about the project hard in this couple of days. So I'm going to develop the full production documentation about it. They will be structured as follows:

0. Idea. One-two phrases.
1. Plot. Maximum a page of the development of idea in direction of What happened? As linear as possible, so there are no flashbacks, no blackouts, nothing. Only the history material.
2. Treatment. A couple of pages describing the spirit of the video. Let's say it's a How did it happen? How long it is? What style is applied? etc. etc. etc.
3. Storyboard. I know what I see, but am I sure you (and even I) got it right?
4. Script. A most developed part, something like the extract Hermesean showed. 5. Production schedule. It's the script, but everything is mixed up following these criteria:
- Actors involved.
- Locations.
- Camera Angles.
More or less. Document which makes its best to organize the filming.

For now, document 1. Enjoy your reading.

0. Idea.

*<JO>* is not a guild. It's THE Jedi Order, with its past... And its present.

1. Plot.
A padawan listens to his master, walking in the forest. The lesson is about the history of the Order, and suddenly the padawan is overwhelmed by glorious images of the past: epic battles, difficult trials, incredible achievements which different jedis accomplished in the past years. The master concludes his lesson saying: Look at the past, it will build your future.

When the lesson is finished, he goes to train with other padawans in an iddilliac athomsphere: laughter and joy is not a rare guest there, as well as strong commitment when necessary.

Time passes. The late padawan is now a Jedi Knight. He travels through hazardous enviroments, seeking to complete the mission the Council assigned him: to find an ancient holocron, now situated in a aborygen-controlled territory. He skillfully avoids armed confrontation, sneaks past the guards and arrives to his destination.

He is surprised to discover that he arrived at the same moment with a Sith. The armed conflict is inevitable, and the Knight engages in fight against the enemy. And, when the Sith almost wins the fight, all of sudden the Knight's fellow Jedis arrive. Some ignite their sabers, a couple of others help his friend to get up. Then they prepare for a fight (in the meantime, more Siths have arrived). Together they are invincible.

--------------------------------------------

This is the story. I was thinking about trailer-ish setup, so that it more resembles the Hermesean's cut. But let's first discuss and build up the story.

I know next to nothing about film and video production. However, I wish to know how you will get this story across? To me it looks like it may need some narration. (but hey I may be wrong...what do I know  :D )
