QC: Behind the Scenes

<< < (4/38) > >>

Carl-E:
Not so much a mess, but cramped and crowded with funky object d'art, wall hangings, fringed lampshades, weird little statuettes - almost victorian looking.  And she chain smokes with a cigarette holder clamped in her teeth. 

Border Reiver:
Marten:  "Do you have any idea of how hard it is to get other gigs now that we've done these roles?  I mean the key players, not some of the secondaries - Sarah gets walk ons damn near when ever she needs em, but the rest of us?  I mean we're not at OS ST levels of "only identified with the QC character" yet and being consigned to years of doing conventions, but man if I end up fifty still wearing the "teh" shirt and signing pics at conventions while trying to hide a bald spot and a "middle age spread" ....."

DSL:
JIMBO: "Well, I haven't gotten a lot of play lately, which has actually been good, because it's given me opportunity to get back into Shakespeare. I'm classically trained, you know. Studied under Olivier and it was a toss-up between me and Blessed when Branagh did 'Henry V.' Last month I was Ophelia --you know, Shakespearean theatre the way it was originally done -- and maybe I shouldn't talk about it because he's concerned about his image, but you should have seen Pintsize as Rosencrantz. Or maybe it was Guildenstern. I forget."

Border Reiver:
Pintsize:  "Well Jim, I did Rosencratz with you, but let's face it, I know your alcohol allergy really impacts on how long you stay at the cast parties so it's not like we got a lot of time to just hang and catch up.  Still, I was hoping that the performance was memorable for my fellow thespians.  I was a little disappointed with being slotted into the Rosencratz role, I had read for Polonius hoping to get a more serious role on the ole' resume.  I'm kind of disappointed that I've typecast myself at present and would really like to branch out."

jwhouk:
"Pintsize, I'm home."

VOICEOVER: "And with those immortal words, the webcomic known as Questionable Content began. Over the years, the comic developed a following that turned it - and its band of twentysomething indie/hipster/goth characters - into an internet institution.

(Pictures of smiling Jeph Jacques, red-carpet-dressed Faye and Dora, and Marten doing the pratfall in the Vespavenger story arc)

VOICEOVER: "But it wasn't all a bed of espresso beans for the comic troupe."

HANNELORE (talking to the camera): "The drinking, the drugs, the madness... it just never seemed to end."

MARTEN: "She just never wanted to stop. And that's how she ended up preggers."

PENELOPE: "I was completely mortified, to the point where I refused to even be on the set with him after strip 1500."

VOICEOVER: "And behind the scenes, the cast drove their director to an unusual level of madness..."

JEPH: "Yep, haven't touched a drop of alcohol since the Sven/Faye arc ended."

VOICEOVER: "This is the story of a real-life internet sensation; Webcomic of Glory - The True Internet Story of Questionable Content. Next, on E! Entertainment Network."
