Thanks Mr. Colour. I was really trying to get as close to Cameron as I could. In the story they're just referred to as "the President," and "the Prime Minister," but we all know who they are.
It did start out as a comedy....a sort of parody of the spy genre, but it evolved from there. The script was rewritten but retains a bit of wackiness. Think Bond-meets-the-supernatural, and you're close. The protagonist, Matthew Long, had a previous incarnation in a Sims2 machinima I did a few years ago called, "From China With Moderate Affection." It was horrible....really horrible. Moviestorm inspired me to do something a little more serious with the character, and then I discovered Iclone. Some of the things I wanted to do could only be done in Iclone so I moved production entirely over to Iclone.
The script finished at 83 pages so I'm thinking of doing it as a serial. Either way it will take a year or two to finish the entire thing I'm sure. Most of the voice lines are in. That's good. I see some people use this forum as a sort of diary of their production, and I enjoy reading those kind of posts. So count me in.
Here's a few stills from production thus far and a promo image:
