Need help with new crime series

[FergusW]

You know like all of these crime series like Vera etc that are on TV, I want to do the same, obviously I need some help and it will take quite a while but I don't know how to make it professional like a proper TV series.

First of all don't underestimate it. I've done many series on different games that required  professional handling. You'll need a good crew (both acting and technical) and if you plan on recording this ingame (live server) you'll need to plan things in very well as a hobo could jump in a change your 'script' you had in mind or a situation.

If you wan't I can take a look into it. Feel free to Pm me with what you've got in mind and who knows I can be a help to you.

Wait you've confused me. You want to make a TV series or you want to make a replica in game?

If you are wanting to do this in-game I would recommend a couple of things:

• Before every episode write a script! Scripts are crucial.
  
• Prepare for long hours of editing. This is a public server you are going to get people that jump cut into it screaming something that ruins the scene.
  
• Get together a team of people that will be dedicated to this, you don't want people leaving mid way through cus they find it 'boring'
  
• Situations will be staged of course. If you are planning to do this as a police thing I would recommend getting your rebel friends to be apart of the series as any ordinary rebel wont pick up what you putting down, if you get what I mean.

This has not been said and I can't stress it enough. But the most important thing is

FUNDING

Try to get some contacts at some channel networks because they can provide funds for you if you write a good enough pitch.
