    This is some stuff from the site. I took the liberty of translating it into english with a program online. It's not clear clear, but you get the understanding. FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions to 'The Movies' General questions About what does it go in 'The Movies'? When and for which platform does the game appear? What are in 'The Movies' the tasks of the player? How exactly do I turn then a film? Which genres are certain then previously certainly? Will there be also real starlings in the game? The game principle sounds previously however not really exciting. Becomes 'The Movies' a Multiplayermodus offer? About what does it go in 'The Movies'? 'The Movies' a construction strategy game of the Lionhead studios is, in which it an at the beginning little film studio of the start of the 20th century into the near future, that year 2010 leads. At the same time the technical possibilities and the requests, that are placed at that by the player to producing film, change after time epoch. When and for which platform does the game appear? 'The Movies' appears for the PC, Sonys PlayStation 2, Nintendos Gamecube and Microsoft it Xbox. It does not give is confessed an exact publication date, it solely that the game should stand sometime in the year 2004 in the dealer shelves. What are in 'The Movies' the tasks of the player? The player is maker, director and studio boss simultaneously. Next to the film trick and all therewith connected tasks, it is not moreover for the selection of the Crew and the construction of the studio and responsible, for without structural expansion (building of new studio buildings) and notice of the customer wishes becomes its in 'The Movies' long survive can. For finally the player is will set not alone in the large far world of Hollywood and the competition studios led by the computer all on that to displace you of the market.

    This is another article from the site. The film trick After it you therefore into the game appeared, and your little studio with the most necessary equipped has, can go it then also to the thing. Before it goes however behind the camera, first an interesting, exciting or also bad script must be prepared. That expires then so that its in the first step one of previously seven officially confirmed genres selects: Horror, romanticism, Western, Science-Fiction, comedy, war film and gangster film. After that the previously quite poorly equipped script hikes lets work become at your script authors further, the so long we it it on that. The script into its care are all the more more long, becomes the better - however also more expensive - it. At the beginning of the game will have to restrict it you therefore on the production of B-Movies, is for films of higher quality simple way no money available. The torment of the choice In the connection on that it comes to the selection of the actors. At the same time it are above all importantly that its the correct people obligates for the correct films: a muscular Actionheld fits fly guaranteed better into a Prduktion, in that going through the shreds than into trashy Lovestory. To be sure counts also at the performers: originally is left must it you on unknown talents, go becoming that then later possibly the way to very above - the correct rolls prefaced. To buy beside it existed also the possibility an already finished script and to pull this per drag&drop directly into the wings. Practically for all that, that do not lose itself in details and would want directly loslegen. And...Action! During its on the director chair place huschen takes the performers and the Crew over the Set until finally the first flap fells. From there, the player interferes then again into the events: by means of threefold Schieberegler (force, romanticism, realism) determines its the direction in which your film should go. In a Western, such a regulator pushed to the attack to the right worries for in rows broken bones while its in a regulator shifted to the left only a couple Schubsereien gets to see. A further example is found in the genre of the dear films: a heruntergeschobener romanticism regulator worries solely for hand stop and a couple Küsschen, a completely hochgeschobener on the other hand.... In addition is to be noted, to which time it your film turns: just in the beginning years should forgo its all too extreme scenes, will fail one exclusively with force gespickte production at the movie theater cash registers pitiful. In the '90er's that looks will get around naturally again very differently, in this time its hardly around Actionszenen. Anus show caused Also after termination of the filming, the work is not settled yet long. So that its at the movie theater cash registers no middle-sized disaster suffers, it is urgently necessary to start an extend designed marketing campaign. In the end another premiere celebration should be organized, finally wants to gain its with your works yes profit - and that creates one only through the use of all possible Werbemitteln. Then also this last hurdle was overcome did, it all in your power standing and lies the fate of the characteristic studio in the hands of the public. The film is provided successful, it you likewise a good name and a larger budget for the next production, should your Machwerk on the other hand floppen, threatens in a renewed fiasco the end. Apropos call improve: on annually taking place award ceremonies can its like in the reality Awards for the best Drehuch, the Soundtrack or the cameras leadership rubbles. The adding of value learned through it your by the name of creates naturally the further progress the career, a tight filled trophies closet eases more confidence in the public than a gathered dust shelf full plastic plant. Technical progress During your career as successful Steven Verschnitt developed obviously also the technology standing you to the decree further. In the pioneer hours Hollywoods the market will may play of dumb film in black white populated be, in the 21st century on the other hand its with so crazy inventions as well as Hologrammen or Smell-O-visions. For each concerning studio boss, it is therefore of highest importance, always on the current state of the time to its - in the 50ern expect the spectators certainly already more than an only a couple of Slaptstickeinlagen sign Charly Chaplin. Actor - in the wahrsten sense of the word - the actors in ' The Movies ' play a particularly important role. As in the real life they have their airs and are in each case for some category better, for other more badly, suitable. Star from the component system Since the play must do due to lizentechnischer reasons without genuine of star, to who player is to be given however nevertheless the chance to together-tinker itself its own hero supplies Lionhead resemble an editor thereby. Should you thus the urgent need have to let a woman Mrs. along-play à la Brad Pitt in one your film - no problem. How this editor is to function however exactly, we are probably only experienced in some weeks and/or months. "I may now play net..." In order to remain as possible close-to-reality, the actors in ' The Movies ' get their own will spendiert. That can be extremely annoying sometimes, contributes however a large part to the atmosphere of the play. While it at the beginning still mainly with unknown Nobodies will work, which do better to it, their own opinion for itself to keep, this with increasing Bekanntheitsgrad will be ever more discriminating. Thus it happens surely times that a highly-paid star schmeisst rage-been inflamed breaking into, because him a scene does not fit, or that it appears only with some delay to the trick. That is above all annoying, there you an actor on (content s) level such as Julia Robert or Keanu Reeves with each second of its presence more money from the bag pulls. Further to note is the fact that some your favorites rather for romances are suitable, while it other dearer only in films along-play let, in which every five minutes something to air flies. A simple and very popular example is the following: a muskelbepackter mountain of a Vin Diesel, which is in addition also still schauspielerisch unbegabt, becomes an intelligent gangster film completely versauen, while it would deliver the perfect hero in a superficial Actionstreifen. These character characteristics are by the way specified over the editor, with which it is prevented at the same time that you every few meters a Allrounder will run over the way - would be also boring
