THE DIGITISER2000 FRIDAY LETTERS PAGE

Well. Bit of a quiet Digi Letters Page this week. I suppose that's only right given that Digi itself has been quieter than usual. I hope you stick with it until I get the Found Footage Finale finished. In addition to my usual summer workload, I'm starting to feel a wee bit knackered. That's not a whinge: it's an excuse.

Incidentally, sorry to keep banging on about it, but you can still help support the Finale on Indiegogo. If any of the donation tiers seem a bit high, well... you can just give whatever you can afford. Or not. That's fine! Lots of people have contributed already, and I'm a lucky boy, and very, very grateful, but a
nything you can give will be used on the production in some way.

We've just over a week left on the campaign, though I will be closing the premiere tickets perk offer early next week. After that - no more tickets will be made available. Get in while you can. This is your final chance to come and hang out with the Found Footage cast and crew on September 9th.

​Did I mention that the Finale will star Violet Berlin and Andy "Nam Rood" Wear? Well it will.

Anyway. Let's do it. Let's fall in love (have some letters)!

If you would like to appear on next week's page, or you've something you'd like me to give some attention to in our occasional Plug Zone, which nobody cares about - please send your emails to this place here: 
digitiser2000@gmail.com
POSTMENTAL
I thought you might be visited by more Postmen this week, so I did a few of my own to “reply” on Twitter - but you seem to have drifted away from that now. So here’s my small collection of homages to the oeuvre. Or whatever.

Anyway, enjoy.

Well... that's pretty much killed any chance of me doing any of those again. Everyone: you have Paul Dunning to thank.

Candidly, I always feel a bit weird sharing Digi-style images from other people. I worry that they'll be mistaken for something I've done... or if they don't, then they'll realise that I've been getting away with it for far too long.

Still. Let's soldier on. Press reveal to see the new character who'll be replacing Postman Pat's family.

KILLER FILLER
In the event you need some filler for your letter page, please consider the following:

Do you think Found Footage, as a finished product, will be a testament to the sheer creativity that can be achieved in the face of very limited resources, or do you think your vision has been compromised in some respects?

​Not that they're mutually exclusive necessarily! I have to say, after some snippets you've provided of the props and animation you've made, I think a lot of that homemade, autodidactic love is going to shine through in ways that big(ger) budgets wouldn't.

Also, just for fun, if there were a game adaptation of FF, what sort of game style do you think would represent it best?  I'm thinking a point 'n' click adventure or a Myst sort of game.
Steve
Weirdly, I was thinking about this yesterday. It's probably wrong to assume that I started this whole Found Footage thing with some sort of grand vision that I've had for decades.

You've got to remember how it came about: I threw together some Digi-based videos for last years's Digifest, people responded to them - and started asking for more. So, doing this wasn't even in my mind this time last year. In all honestly, I've made it up as I've gone along - one thing sort of informing another thing, and trying to work with the limitations (not least of my own ability).

I mean... it would've been lovely to have had millions of monies to spend on huge sets and costumes and special effects and stunts, but I doubt it would've been as much fun to make. And yeah - fingers crossed that the home-spun fun comes across on screen. Yes, it has been compromised to a degree, but having worked for years in kids' TV I'm pretty used to writing to the budget we have. I've tried to choose carefully what we spend the big bucks on to give maximum on-screen value.

Hopefully, though, people aren't expecting anything too slick and polished. 
​I've never done anything remotely like this; never edited, never directed... And the budget - as blown away as I am by all the generosity and support - is still relatively tiny.

But! I hope the slight crapness of it adds to the charm; that's mostly why I went for the olde timey video look - to try and find something that felt nostalgic, in the way that Digi/teletext now does, while actually being brand new.


​There are some little elements in there that are holdovers from Biffovision - more thematic than specific - but the Finale is me seeing if I can make sense out of something that makes absolutely no sense. The idea for it only came about because of the stuff I'd done already on the series. When I was making the Christmas Special last year I had a vague idea in mind, but it was only relatively recently that it all coalesced. 

I think I'm not very good at hanging onto ideas for a long time. They sometimes take a while to brew, but when I have an idea, I tend to use it immediately or forget it, otherwise it niggles away at me. So most of Found Footage - like everything I do - is quite spur-of-the-moment.

Found Footage game? Creepy hacking simulator.
DATABLAST
So, that Found Footage ZX Spectrum teaser.

It was good of @Blerkotron to extract the loader data, but he seems to have missed the obvious while searching for secrets messages.

There is a second code block, and what I assume is the instruction to run it.

Horace and The Bums?

You're the second person this week to pick me up on this. Firstly: I don't care.

POO-LESS IN SEATTLE
As you've asked for letters that aren't poo-centric, I thought I would ask you a serious question for a change.

As an established writer for the bronze screen, have you ever considered writing for video games? Do you think your mad skills would lend themselves to the medium? Have you ever written for video games, and do you have any interesting stories about it? I know that's three questions but you'll notice that the word "poo" doesn't feature in any of them.
Adam
I have written for video games: I wrote the script for Zed Two's Future Tactics. Not sure I have any interesting stories about it...

Oh - no, wait. I do! Future Tactics had a really good voice cast - and I went along with the Pickford Brothers to the voice recording session.

Jason Isaacs had just been cast as Lucius Malfoy in a Dennis Potter film, and was kind enough to sign his autograph for my daughter, writing "Slytherin Rules", whatever that means. Also there was Simon Greenall, and it was from seeing his insane vocal versatility that I suggested casting him in Biffovision.

​So... there you go.
MILK ROUND
This week I tried Almond Milk for the first time. I thought it was going to be horrible and taste like marzipan (which is the devil's cake covering), but it didn't.

What have you tried that you thought would be horrible but wasn't?

Bestest Ever Regards.
Your Man In England, Bartholomew "The Bastard" Bastard 
Probably both spinach and asparagus. I didn't think I liked green things. Turns out I just didn't like the green things my mother tried to feed me; broccoli, cabbage, parrots, leprechauns...
LETTER RATING: 72%
I've been playing the original Sonic games with my daughter recently. Sometimes, she wants to play Sonic 3.

72% - totally justified. Some of it goes beyond "tricky" and plants itself firmly in "bloody annoying" territory.

Whoa, a totally video game related letter from me. Even if it is 23 years late.
Nikki
Yes indeed. 72% is justified. That's a good score! Of course, after the backlash we got from Sonic fans we more or less adopted the "Anything below 80% is bad" approach, same as all the other mags. Life's far too short.
PROMOSEXUAL

Not long now until Found Footage is released! I've included another promotional image for you, again painstakingly created using archaic teletext methods.

"Press reveal" to see how Bamber lets Bambette know he is "in the mood". This image can be used for bus stop advertising, or it can be on a billboard, if you turn it on its side.

Thanks, Biscuits. That's some sweet imagery.
CBBCHORSE
Howdy. I trust your deadlines for your various TV commitments have been met and you will be able to feed your family for another arbitrary period of time.

Here are a couple of questions related to that side of things (TV, not your family, I'm not some weirdo):

1) You've clearly poured a lot of time, effort and energy (and money) into Found Footage, so it's probably fair to class it as a labour of love.

​Simply getting something like this made is an accomplishment in and of itself, and the FF previews have been well received, so from the perspective of someone whose involvement is limited to chucking in a tenner it seems to be going swimmingly. That said, what would it take for you to consider FF a success?

2) The BBC this week announced a "reinvention" for a "new generation" that includes a budget increase for kid's output including "video, live online programme extensions, blogs, vlogs, podcasts, quizzes, guides, games and apps." One could cynically dismiss this as sounding quite similar to that time in the 90s a BBC exec learned the internet existed and decided every show needed a website and a chatroom, but maybe our ADHD-addled youth needs such supplementary content.

​As a writer of children's shows and owner of children does this seem like a good strategy? Is it something you think is necessary for the BBC, and children's TV as a whole, to keep pace with the world, or just extra fluff that will be ignored in favour of body shaming cat tweets or whatever the kids do these days?

Cheers for the super fun articles (and super depressing photo captions that read like a cry for help),
Jol
1) Oh man! That's a really big question. I think I just want everyone who backed it to feel that it was worth it. If that happens, I'll be happy.

My main worry is that it has a sort of general atmosphere of weirdness to it, rather than trying go for jokes. I'm trying to destabilise viewers first, and make people laugh second. I hope people aren't expecting actual traditional funnies... Anyway. Yes. I want the backers to like it. And it would be nice if the series proved a little more popular than the episodes to date. I think it deserves it. I've no idea how to help it break through though. Oh well!

2) They've got no choice. They've got to try something like this, and I'm glad they're properly funding kids' TV again.

​It's vital to the survival of the BBC - if you're not training the upcoming generations to tune into your stuff (wherever you might put it), then you're going to lose them. Plus... there's nobody else making high quality, UK-centric, TV shows for children. Whatever you think of the BBC, they need to be applauded for that.
GAMING MILL'S LETTER
I am pleased to announce that I've just found out we are expecting our first - our first packet of Triops from eBay. Alas, it's not my first but it is the first at my current location and it will probably be the last (because they always die, the lazy buggers).

They look like horseshoe crabs when they're fully grown and are quite horrendous to each other because of the cannibalisitic tendencies. Still, great fun to watch.

How come there isn't a video game about Triops? I'm sure there was one for Sea Monkeys. I used to own some Sea Monkeys but they all died a tragic death when I accidentally boiled them in front of my gas fire; my house was freezing and I thought it would heat them up. Alas, I forgot about them and went to work. Ten hours later? Molten plastic all over the fireplace.

Sea Monkeys were rubbish anyway. I'm thinking of crowd sourcing my idea of bigger Sea Monkeys - I'm going to call them Ocean Gorillas. I'll need the money just to pay for some scientist or something to create them. My goal? About £30 million.

I am unfit and on drugs for my knackered foot,
Gaming Mill. 
Triops are infinitely superior to Sea Monkeys. Triops get big enough to see at least. Every time we've had Sea Monkeys, they just look like some crumbs in a tank.
PUNAWARE
For the past two years I have been developing a smartphone game in which one plays as Apple's chief designer, provoking Genghis Khan by jabbing at him on your touchscreen until he loses his temper - sort of a medieval-themed Buckaroo.

​I was all set to buy the perfect URL for the project's launch, which I had put off since it is such a niche idea and unlikely to have been pre-empted during development.

​Imagine my frustration to find somebody had already grabbed PokeMongolIve.com; other gamedevs, please learn from my mistake and get non-disclosure agreements from your testers.

Andrew Lowe is a friend of mine, though you might know him better as one of the finest games journalists this country ever produced.

These days he's a novelist and editor - and his latest book, Savages, is out now. If you don't want to read it, well... you can make do with this instead:

WHAT IF THE HOLIDAY OF YOUR DREAMS TURNED INTO YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE?

Joel Pearce is an average suburban family man looking to shake up his routine and improve himself. He wants to drink less, eat better, get running.

When Joel receives an outrageous birthday gift – a ‘desert island survival experience’ – he views the trip as a personal challenge. Enlisting four close friends, he travels to a remote tropical paradise for three weeks of indulgence and self-discovery.

But after their supplies disappear and they lose contact with the mainland, the rookie castaways start to suspect that the island is far from deserted.

SAVAGES is a taut psychological thriller with pace, punch and a jaw-dropping twist.

If you like your beach reads with brains, then you’ll love Andrew Lowe’s brutal and bracing second novel. Just don’t spoil the ending!


You can get it on Amazon for the low launch price of just £1!

Triops are boss, oddly, a couple of days ago, I dug around in an old bag looking for my iron, and stumbled across an old triop set. I'm going to 'raise' mine tonight!

Where I used to live, there was a charity shop next door, and twice a year, once in January and once in May, they would have a triop set for sale. I figured out what was going on: A well-meaning relative had bought a set for someone for Christmas, who had then said 'Gosh, how lovely!' or similar, and then promptly gave them to the charity shop. Yet their ersatz gratitude ensured they would receive a set every Christmas and birthday thereafter, which I would then pick up for cheap.

That charity shop got in trouble once because I had ordered a 'transgressive' comic off the internet, and the delivery guy just shoved it in the charity shop next door instead of delivering it to me or leaving me a note. They held onto it for a couple of months before opening it, thinking 'Oh it's a comic' and putting it in the kid's section. A kid bought it and the mother wasn't happy with the contents: arses and stuff ahoy! I bet the kid was made up though

Congratulations on getting your artwork on here, Biscuits! As one of the nicest people on here, it genuinely made me happy to see you up there!

Triops are indeed extremely cool. Way, way, way cooler than Seamonkeys. I managed to grow some Triops to a frighteningly enormous size (about 5mm, from memory) and became quite attached to them. I thought about imbibing them with the ill conceived notion that I'd become Triop Man; primary special power being the ability to resurrect if you dried me out in my sediment and then watered me. I didn't because there was some confusion over whether or not I could do that anyway.

What are 'Transgressive' comics? Apart from having bums in.

Speaking of bums - I was describing Found Footage to my brother last night - I said it appears to be some kind of Alien movies parody but with a Monty Python edge (not bad description, right?). He said, what do you mean? I said, okay, you know facehuggers? Yeah, like parasitic vaginas... right.... okay, well, Mr Biffo has radio controlled bums with anus detail. We both laughed a lot! I still don't think he'd be into it, but I've at least made a start :O)

I've generally found that the way to sell it to people is on the absurdist adverts, with the sci-fi conspiracy weirdness as a backdrop. It helps that a some of my friends are into stuff like Wonder Showzen.

That said, it's still incredibly niche, so it simply will not be for everyone. I have accepted that I simply can't sell most people I know on most things I think are great.

DEAN
7/7/2017 12:51:05 pm

Good idea to ease people in with the original ads.

I have a very good friend who shares a similar sense of humour with me and he was... overwhelmed by it? He loved the Woz song, though. I've tried turning a few other people I know onto it but haven't heard back yet. Listen up assholes!

My kids both love Goujon John and we all think he's based on Papa John (Pizzas) who looks creepy as fuck... like Liza Minnelli crossed with a muppet. My wife doesn't know what to think but she did laugh at Gheeman.

But yeah, Found Footage is bizarre. I think people need to relax more when they watch it and just enjoy it for what it is. It's as if they're worried about looking stupid for not getting it.... which in and of itself is pretty funny.

Do you have a favourite bit so far? Mine is easily Pimp My Tarp! I love everything about that and not least of all Mr Biffo's erotic leg.

I've been going for:

"A bit like a sketch show but held together with a central thread. Like The League of Gentlemen but more sci-fi and absurdist"

I have yet to convince any outsiders of it's charms.

Biscuits
7/7/2017 01:43:07 pm

Haha thanks! That's very flattering. Have you dried dehydrating yourself and having some water yet? I'd be interested to know the results! Think about how convenient it could be for the summer months, I could just store myself away.

Speaking of imbibing creatures that come in powder form, I used to have a Sea Monkeys watch that had a big plastic bubble on it so you could carry a couple of Sea Monkeys around with you. I wore it to a long 'parents are away' house party once and forgot about the fact I would need to feed them. They died on the second day. I awoke on the third to be told my 'pets' had been dried out and smoked by a young lady Alexa who could sing like Janis Joplin. I'm not sure if they told me that detail because I like Janis Joplin so it would act as some consolation, or if Alexa develops her raspy timbre via the inhalation of burning brine shrimp.

Transgressive comics are 'underground comix', they have naughty things in them. Robert Crumb is generally considered the master and is a good place to start if you're bothered, as well as handily tying in with the Janis Joplin reference.


I describe Found Footage as 'Tim and Eric meets Viz via 90s gaming culture, with a smidge of Janis Joplin' only without the last bit. But I've never used that description, I just send people part 1

DEAN
7/7/2017 02:26:15 pm

Cool, I think I know who Robert Crumb is. He's the guy that did that 'Keep on Trucking' bumper sticker thing, yeah? I watched a documentary about him... not because I was interested in him particularly but I loved the film maker, Terry Zwigoff (tear his wig off).
Yeah, I get what you mean now. Cheers!

Biscuits

That's him! I love that documentary. Zwigoff's 'Ghost World' is also based on such comics

Jol
7/7/2017 04:32:20 pm

I do quite like Fritz the Cat, although I'm coming from the Ralph Bakshi side rather than Robert Crumb. Apparently Crumb wasn't a big fan of the movie's content, so I would assume his material is rather different from Bakshi's interpretation?

The first thing I think of when I hear 'transgressive comics' is the Savoy publishing house from the UK that put out stuff like Meng & Ecker. I've been tempted to buy Lord Horror: Reverbstorm as the imagery is so out there (extremely NSFW, keen googlers) but I do have this fear of someone like my girlfriend's mum or our dogwalker seeing it and thinking I'm a nutjob.

Found Footage - like all these things, getting eyeballs on it relies a lot on word of mouth, so we should all take a bit of responsibility to spread the word when it's finished. Describing it isn't easy - sci-fi Python sort of covers it, while the slower, darker moments are reminiscent of Chris Morris' Jam. Despite the silliness I always get this sense of dread while watching it. The weirdness is all part of the appeal though. Take something like Twin Peaks - it's nuts, but it's also one of the most adventurous and rewarding shows on TV at the moment.

Biscuits
7/7/2017 07:31:55 pm

I like the Fritz movie too. I think Crumb's misgivings stem from the fact that the Fritz movie aimed to be about the time and place and the whole hippy scene, man, and despite being a defining character within it, Crumb says he never got the whole hippy movement and felt like an outsider. Fritz comics are about becoming famous and the effect that can have on one's id and ego, more like a character study

Yep, Meng and Ecker is about as transgressive as it gets! I haven't read much but I liked what I've read, and to their credit the creators always seemed to be genuinely, off-the-wall demented and not just 'showing off' in their more risky material

Jol
7/7/2017 10:08:33 pm

It's a great example of the art that rose out of the smouldering ashes of Thatcher's Britain. Pure subversive rage through a medium generally considered to be at aimed at children.

Are you a bakshi fan then? He's such an outlier in the traditional animated Hollywood scene. So willing to try things nobody else would touch

After little less than 48 hours my baby Triops are now visible! I had some about a decade ago but they all died. I read online that if you froze the water solid and let it thaw out then some eggs that remained dormant would be prompted into hatching because the freeze / thaw thing tricked them into thinking it had gone from winter to spring.

It worked!

Seamonkeys just let you down and don't even give you the satisfaction of buyers remorse because you keep blaming yourself... is there anything more you could have done? Triops, on the other hand, are little hardhat wearing troopers that don't fuck you about.

I'm sure my employer would be delighted to know I'm discussing 23 year old review scores instead of making him money, but screw it, it's Friday and I'm about to go home.

Sonic 3 is lots of fun, if far too easy. The only bit I ever got stuck at was that bit in Carnival Night Zone with that red & white spinny thing you had to move down to squeeze through a gap. I spent ages bouncing up and down with a bubble shield until I realised you could just press up and down on the pad to move it.

The problem is that it's really only half a game, and although there are improvements over Sonic 2 it was a bit of a let down until you could plug it into S&K.

72% is maybe about right, but: It's unfair to assign a numerical rating to something that deserves a qualitative analysis. If you are going to do it, the simpler the better; people just want to know if a game is worth playing or not, which is a binary choice. I do think there's this perception that 72/100 seems a lot lower than 7/10, but then a lot of people see 7/10 as the low point of acceptability. It kind of renders anything rated 1-6 redundant, hence the whole thing being pointless.

My feelings on Sonic 3 are more of a running joke than anything. I don't really care about the number, though I do actually like the game a lot. I get that it is half a game and therefore short and mostly fairly easy except for that barrel and some bits of Hydrocity Zone, but what there is it of it has some great level design, nice new mechanics, great music, lovely visuals, and the best special stages in the series. In my view it's a satisfying Sonic and Tails game that becomes a full-on and completely scientifically objective 92.63785% game when completed by Sonic and Knuckles (though I hate the Death Egg stage...).

Overall, it's a game that I enjoy, and that's enough. I'm not sure what number I'd have given it, especially given that at the time I don't think we knew about Sonic and Knuckles.

Starbuck
7/7/2017 10:04:47 pm

I'd give it 80%, but perhaps my increased scorage is due to the sheer joy I had playing it in a shared house with lyrics being added throughout the (brilliant) soundtrack about one housemate being a tosser...

So why the wittertainment references? With regards to sea monkeys I fell for the hype not one but twice in my callow youth. Triops sound much more like the fun I was promised by the sceptred brine shrimps, but which they failed to deliver (twice).

Nick

I think it's just because Jason was mentioned above. I joined in because I like feeling involved, connected even in some intangible way, with another human being.

Sea monkeys have never worked for me in the past (last Christmas was a wash out sea monkey wise) but I'm optimistic about Triops.
