The Phoenix Imperative First Teaser

Alrighty then my faithful readers...I have faithful readers, right?  Anyway, its getting closer: the release of the first episode of "The Phoenix Imperative" isn't as much a dream in my head as it was a few months ago.  I started working on a prelude episode earlier this week, but I put it on hold temporarily, pending on whether I will be getting a newer computer system or not.  While I am impatiently waiting to find out, I decided I should get started on the promotional strips for the story.

So, early Friday evening, I sat staring at a map of the DC Wasteland, trying to figure out where might be the best places to find the images that I was looking for.  A number of sights I wanted to look at I haven't even been to during this play through.  So, off I sent Cameron trudging through the wastes to reach the desired locations.  I'll tell you, location scouting in a post-apocalyptic wasteland requires more body armour and better firepower than in the world we are all used to dealing with every day.

I managed to reach the locations I wanted, finding some better choices than others, as well as finding choices that I wasn't even looking for.  For example, the screenshot with the Deathclaw, is from the second random Deathclaw encounter within a few minutes of each other.  When this one attacked, I toggled on the video capture and let it beat on Cameron for a couple of minutes (hurray for "tgm").  Finding just the right shot in the video took a bit of time.  Next I edited the screens, making only minor adjustments to the script I had written out for it, then stacked them together.  Voila!  You now have before you the first advertisement for my story, "The Phoenix Imperative"!

I hope it whets your appetites for more ;)
