JEDI
REPUBLIC RECRUITMENT COMMERCIAL - TELEVISION FORMAT -
PRELIMINARY
[[Opening voiceover]]
This public service announcement is brought to you by
the Jedi Republic.
[[Opening music - Vader's "Imperial March."
Opening shot - wide angle of a planet under attack by
Drengin corvettes. Switch to closeup shot - Drengin
mercenary is honing a Ginsu knife set as Midwestern
farmers scream in background]]
The saga...is FAR from over!
[[Panoramic view - Hundreds of Yor ground force
phalanxes march in perfect machine formation,
mercilessly gunning down cutlass-wielding pirates]]
Threats to galactic stability and order are increasing
since the fall of the Old Republic!
[[Switch to interior shot of a smoky, torch-lit, rough
stone tower. Crack Altarian PSI-Troopers surround a
lone, sweating, shivering wizard, who clutches his staff
under their steely gazes. The sound of his knees
knocking underneath his tattered robes is VERY
noticeable]]
Dark forces are rampant, threatening to overrun us all!
[[Slow fade to black; music volume fades to absolute
silence]]
The downtrodden of the Metaverse need a new ally to
fight this evil...
[[Light slowly increases, revealing a closeup of Yoda's
face, looking into the distance, in "wise old
master" expression. Camera positioned LOW - under
floor level if possible - so that he appears, well,
almost 4 feet tall. Yoda slowly turns and looks down at
camera, narrows eyes dangerously]]
"MY ally is the Force...And a POWERFUL ally it
is!"
[[Roll audio of Star Wars overture, a.k.a.
"Luke's Theme" - maximum volume. Fast cut to
space battle with GalCiv Starfighters (modified to look
suspiciously like X-Wings) peeling out of formation into
a strafing run against an Arcean battleship]]
ENLIST today!
[[Cut to Qui-Gon, Dooku, etc. wielding lightsabers;
chopping, slashing, and generally making a whopping big
pile of scrap out of Yor death droids]]
FEEL the Force flowing through you!
[[Closeup of black gloved hand "choking" air;
Torian marine in background levitating approx. 19"
from floor, eyes bulging; DON'T show helmet on figure in
foreground! This is a recruiting tape for Pete's sake]]
STRIKE a mighty blow against the destructive tide!
[[Back to space shot; Drengin Death St - no, TERROR STAR
exploding. Use Dolby Surround on explosion SFX; crank up
bass so that rumble rattles teeth of audience]]
BE A PART of the rising power for order and justice in
the Metaverse!
[[Rapid "machine-gun" montage of images to
raise adrenaline level of the viewer. Emphasis on
lightsaber and space battles. Insert at least one image
each of Leia in Jabba's Palace outfit and Amidala in
skintight white outfit from Ep. II for cheesecake
value. Also at least one pointless image of Artoo
beeping and rocking from side-to-side; the kids always
love that one]]
JOIN the Jedi Republic!
[[Music swells to climax of overture. Switch to
widescreen. Jedi Knights in line-abreast formation in
background, silhouetted, lightsabers ignited. Yoda
positioned in the foreground, so that he looks
taller/more imposing, in spotlight. Silhouette gives
more visual impact for Knights and is NECESSARY to
minimize disturbingly dark robes on a few members]]
[[Fast zoom to closeup of Yoda]]
"Strong we are, already...but perhaps...THERE IS
ANOTHER."
[[Music ends - abrupt cut to black. Brief pause. Then,
yellow text fades in on black screen - NO VOICEOVER]]
The Force is with us.
Is it with you? |
