X-Minus-One: The Seventh Order (Part 1 of 3)

X Minus One was a half-hour science fiction radio series broadcast from April 24, 1955 to January 9, 1958 in various time slots.

This is my adaptation of one of those episodes: The Seventh Order. This episode originally aired on May 8, 1956. I used "The Movies" game engine in order to do this.

I should note that each of these short movies were made BY me from start to finish using only the (meager) resources available in "The Movies" game and its expansion. Each of these takes me anywhere upwards of 12 hours to several days (weeks in the case of the longest ones) to make. I have to isolate out the audio LINE BY LINE in a sound editing program so that I can get the right actor's mouth to move at the right time(s). Then I have to create the animations. Then I have to dub in and lip-sync up the footage. Then I have to export chunks of "complete" animation out to a separate editor where I then composite everything together, along with my custom-made credits and whatnot. (Music, etc.) It's a long, tedious, extremely boring process... But it's one that I gladly and willingly undertake in order to bring these relics of the radio to others. :) I hope that these efforts bring light to you all! :)

I used to use X Minus 1 as my way to escape my work day.

I did a lot of physical labor at the time and it really helps when you have something as totally awesome as X Minus 1 to help the day pass.

I knew that in 16 short episodes I'd be on my way home to my wife.

Starkwell01 is right, you have made a great thing even better.

Please keep going.
