RIP Episode Updates
Jun 21st
There should be a caption contest for this one! Am I wrong?
Well the series is progressing once again after replacing the voice actress for ‘Rachel’ with the talented and helpful Kayla from Sims99. While you’ll have to offically wait unitl the Halloween Episode (Episode 7 ‘Evolutions’) to hear her voice the wait will be worth it.
Episode 4 ‘Perfect Pain’ is now in Post Production and should be released Late July.
Episode 5 and 6 are in joint production as they are filming back to back (Being both the first 2 Part Episode in the Series). If Episode 5 fails to release in August then it’s possible that both will be released as an extra long Speical Episode. The nature of the Episode forced it to be split originaly but the exact reason for this is still being kept mostly under warps.
So we’ve got a lot coming down the line so look forward to more from RIP.
Episode 04 Post Production Haulted…
Jun 14th
Knightmare Knews reported today that were some tensions on set of the latest RIP Episode when the actor playing Dorian Graves (Sarastro) walked off set saying that he was taking the weekend off for ‘Father’s Day’.
While he was not able to be reached for comment the guest Director, Crystal Witchery, had only this to day “Stupid Sims.”
“This is a minor issue at this stage in the production” explained Executive Producer, Bard Noir “We’re still going forward with Principal Photography on Episodes 5 and 6 at this time.”
So far rumors indicate that Episodes 5 and 6 are going to be the first, two part segment seen in the series despite the Bard’s repeated statements that “RIP is not one show broken up into different Episodes.” when asked about this the Noir camp indicated that the Episode length “was due to the musical numbers involved.”
Hmmm… is that so?
Episode 03 Released with new lead
Jun 8th
After some production issue and recasting that fell through forcing recasting we’ve finaly managed to get Episode 03 “the Dark Slayer” out and in production.
The cast also welcomed first time Machinima, and veteran stage actor, Sarastro into the part of Dorian Graves following a production misshap on set. The series also introduces Jezebel the Dark Slayer played by Crystal Witchery who’s also directing a future Episode of RIP in her own unique style.

Tragedy on Set!!
Apr 16th
The Herald’s News has just learned that a horrible accident occurred on set during the filming of the latest R.I.P. Episode.
A Fire occurred while filming Episode 4 “Perfect Pain”, which in and of itself was ironic. So far reports have linked the cause to either faulty wiring or the fact that Dorian Graves likes to read dry, dusty, hand written tomes on an old sofa near very large open flames… we’re still not fully sure, but rest assured a full investigation is being conducted by our insurance firm of Larry, Curly and Moe.
Episode Director Crystal Witchery was reached for comment saying, “stupid sims” (I swear I’m not making that up). “While this is a minor set back in production, Episodes 3 AND 4 are still going strong.” said Bard Nor, R.I.P. Producers and Head Writer, “But this is just too funny!”
Meanwhile Dorian Graves was rushed to the nearest hospital facility, the Allied East clinic which he was very apprehensive about going to initially.*
Melanie was treated on set and Erika managed to escape without any injuries. Which is another irony since she has slayer healing powers yet was also the only one who ran out of the room fast enough. Her stunt double however was killed continently solving a budgeting issue Crystal was having with the production of Episode 4 (okay that one I AM making up).
This will likely cause some delays in production pushing Episode 4 into late June, but we’re still glad to hear that Erika’s okay… she’s hot!
*in Episode 1 Dorian killed 3 Vampires in the Allied East Blood Bank.

Episode 4 still in Production
Apr 11th
As life gets back on track I decided to share the newest Episode progress. We are, in fact, working on two Episodes at the same time. And while things have gotten out of control in the Noir household it doesn’t mean we’ve stopped working all together.
I’m still committed to this show, and the people working hard to help me bring it to you.
Here are some shots of Episode 4.
I think Cyrstal Witchery is doing an amazing job and I MYSELF am looking forward to the finished product based on the dailies I’ve seen so I know you should be loving it.
The Episode is called “Perfect Pain”, written by myself and directed by Crystal Witchery – Episode 03 “Dark Slayer” was written by Aiwe and directed by myself so it’s offically the first one in the series that has a different writer and director however Episode 04 “Perfect Pain” is the first in the seires NOT directed by myself so it’s been an interesting process of letting go and trusting Crystal, but I think she brings her unique style to the series for the better. The Episode is actually named after one of my favorite Anubis songs.
BTW – if you need to know more about Anubis, you can check them out at www.myspace.com/anubisband
Some time earlier this year I saw them live, so I’ll throw up pictures on that later.
