This sounds awesome.

And if you need characters, Riptide and Nitros are all yours.

I did have something similar to this, for instance I was beginning to get into animating, or drawing digitally. I will receive the required tools for such around the end of July, but I could help making pictures. As of now, I am currently only able to draw some sketches on paper.

I had a few thoughts of my own on on making an animated series, but that's another case. I could lend you my services if you need some writing, and I would be interested in allowing my Oc Taggon to pitch in, though I would like to hear the story which would be told firs,t who would be able to be a side character, and where and how this story would begin. I desire to know when and where this story would start.

I myself have actually written with other people's characters before, and I am good at mimicking to the extent where no one complains what their character says or does when I play as them. I am not volunteering as producer here, but if you need a writer, I'm available. I'm writing a book myself, with plenty of twists and all that candy a writer would like to see when they crack open a book. *shrugs*

This is a very good idea though, and I'm backing you on this one.

Well 1. thanks everyone for the great interest in the story.

2. Thanks Taggon for the questions and your help.

So basically how I had it drawn up in my head is that we would do the first five episodes of the series focusing essentially on the fall of Cybertron, where each character played a role in the fall, and basically introducing the characters and how they get to Earth (Like I remember on TFU Gear had in his backstory that Ultra Magnus saved him and brought him to the Ark or something similar, well that's basically this point.) From there we move on to Earth and the start of the use of each base and how things begin on Earth (including the possible election of a new Prime.) While Optimus may be somebody we will have to decide on keeping, I do want to keep Megatron on at least early on as he was a very big part of TFU.

I would like to limit our characters to about 8 to 10 per side including canons (which at least I think we need to have early on at least, especially one's who were prominent in the RP I.E. Megs, Shockwave, etc.)

I think the first episode will be the episode where makes his raid on the core and corrupts it, and everyone must now prepare for evacuation, each with different stories of how they came, or didn't come to Earth on the Ark.

Now this isn't necessarily a mini-series before the real series, I just like to break up seasons into a series of 5 episode plans. I would also suggest keeping episodes down to 7 to 9 minutes with just multiple parts for longer episodes (because most people don't want to sit down for a half hour for a fan made Youtube series, no matter how good.)

So that's most of the details, what do you think?

You can haz Dashside and Traintron

Okay, now this is where we would be facing whether for a season or so we would really bother to show how they got to Earth. I mean, Five episodes from Cybertron to Earth? Maybe I'm thinking too big, but It took them a bit to get from their planet to earth with all the other planets they landed on and or visited, or collided against one another. Or are we just going to speed time up? I am a kind of guy whop thinks technicalities, or likes to most of the time, so I may be giving you some frack.  

or do we just have flash-backs in certain episodes to what happened in space before they reached Earth, or a retelling of a tale of what happened from both sides later on? Like, maybe for example a 'bot and a 'con are forced to work together to survive and the 'bot has his or her useless human companion despite asking all the questions the audience might have on their mind, and both the bot and con take turns telling what happened, so you know what happened on both sides just to make that line of episodes or episode interesting? 

Limitations eh? On that note, which is a good thought so that people don't cram themselves into this thread 'pick me!', maybe you should have a little roster or something. Or maybe other rpers should vote on who would go in or not, and out of that depending on how many characters made it out vote those down to finals---and whenever a character dies, perhaps a new one who lost by the skin of their teeth replaces the dead character? Maybe not the nicest can of worms to open right now, but let's face the tough stuff first head-on. 

The time is also a good idea. Now key thing will also not to be having too many sub-plots, and decide you main character and categorize the characters entering play. For instance, I think Taggon would make a fair side-character--or a more mysterious and rogue character would pop up here and there like Wheeljack in TFP, kinda a side character, but not a major one quite.

Yeah. Just tell me what to do and I'll see if i can help.

Bladecut, your character will surely be a part of the vote, and my guess is, you have a good chance of making it.

I have been offline for a longtime, but a firend of mine Bladecut told about this idea.
I guess many of the Roleplayers know about my art, I work in digital art, traditional art and I use to make animations in flash with vectors and bitmaps.
Actually I'm working in a contest, but after Jule I'm all yours.
Also, I would like to see my OCs in this project

I wouldn't mind it, a few stories of Gearchange and how he came about, would like to see a few of the other characters.

It'd be like an entire comic based on background characters :L
