GateWorld » Stargate vets headline Riese Web series

A new fantasy series is getting ready for its Internet debut, featuring a cast heavy with Stargate veterans. Riese is described as "a unique and original steampunk-inspired Web production," which filmed in Vancouver in August and premieres online on November 2.

Starring in the series is Christine Chatelain, who recently guest starred as Clara in the 2-part season finale and 2-part season premiere of Syfy's Sanctuary.

Co-starring is Ben Cotton (Stargate Atlantis's "Dr. Kavanagh"), Sharon Taylor ("Amelia Banks"), Ryan Robbins ("Ladon Radim"), and Patrick Gilmore (Stargate Universe's "Dale Volker").

Riese is a unique-looking show that blends fantasy and steampunk, in the story of a girl who may be the salvation of a wasteland that was once a thriving world. Here's the series description from the producers:

Riese is a world of moral ambiguity and political intrigue. A decimated land populated by characters from dreams and nightmares. Loyalties are ever in question, suspicion in the minds of all. A power-hungry tyrant, Empress Amara – ruler of the kingdom Eleysia – has been conquering nation after nation in order to unite the people under one banner. From the shadows, however, an enigmatic group clearly wielded power over her. Called The Sect, they purported themselves to be the official religion of Eleysia, and began to spread alongside the nation's borders, infecting the lands with chaos and turmoil. And yet, despite the impending doom, a single beacon of light shines in Riese. A mysterious wanderer, she travels with her wolf Fenrir across this barren land. Branded as heretics by The Sect, Riese and Fenrir will pause to aid those in need as they travel, but they must evade capture at all costs. As she flees, she'll piece together her past and her destiny, in a conflict that will hold the fate of this world in the balance – and the once peaceful kingdom of Eleysia will be the battlefield.

Första avsnittet var okej. Snyggt, utan tvekan. Fick dock inget grepp om handlingen eller karaktärerna men det kommer väl framöver med lite tur. Gärna lite mer dialog i nästa avsnitt tack.

avsnitt 2 kommer 16e november. (undrar om det kommer vara tillgängligt via youtube också?)

Dom har ju redan skapat en spellista på sin YouTube-kanal så jag får iaf känslan av att dom kommer lägga upp fler avsnitt. Sedan återstår det ju att se om dom blir tillgängliga för alla eller om kommande avsnitt åker på en geoblock. Finns ett till ställe att se dom på.

Nu har jag sett de f.n. utkomna 4 avsnitten. Som Carty säer så är det väldigt snyggt. Första avsnittet avslöjade kanske inte så mycket - det var nog mest en språngbräda in i serien. Intrigen som byggs upp börjar på att bli riktigt intressant - gillar verkligen scenerna med barnen.

Tror hemsidan blivit uppdaterad sedan sist jag var där, nu är den riktigt snygg.

Tillägg:
Tog mig en flukt på det officiella forumet - och hittade följande meddelande:

»Hey guys, As some of you know, we dive head on into production for Chapter 2 this Thursday! It's absolutely crazy that it's so soon. Just wanted to tell you all that if you'd like some behind-the-scenes photos and whatnot, make sure to check @riesetheseries on Twitter. I'll be tweeting like mad all day, with updates, thoughts and best of all, photos! -Ryan « — [Källa]

Inte helt fel.

Då si, då har jag sett det sista avsnittet i första kapitlet/säsongen. Så nu vet vi dels vad seriens titel kommer ifrån och varför tjejen som vi får följa är jagad. Slutet är lite neutralt, man öppnar för en fortsättning (under produktion) men samtidigt har man inte velat lämna för mycket trådar hänga lösa. Tycker det har varit relativt hög kvalité genom serien, både produktions och prestationsmässigt. Kommer hänga på nästa kapitel också.

Nästa kapitel så kommer Alessandro "Lt Felix Gaeta" Juliani medverka.

Hittade en post på det officiella forumet där man meddelar att man startar ett sammarbete med ett brittiskt företag som heter Fireworks. På sikt öppnar detta upp för fler plattformar DVD tex (det är bra) men att man (förhoppningsvis bara nu under förhandlingarna) var tvugna att spärra online-tillgången. Lite luddigt skrivet, men jag får intrycket av att det är tillfälligt.

»What does this mean for Riese? It opens up a number of opportunities. For one, it increases the chances that we can keep making this show and letting you become further involved in the world of Riese. Additionally, it boosts the possibility of us being able to distribute the series on other platforms (episode downloads, DVDs, and television).

Now, for the bad news. While Fireworks is negotiating deals on our behalf, we've had to remove our episodes from online streaming. We're not happy about it by any means – we want all of our fans to enjoy Riese whenever they want – but we also understand that it's a necessary move in order to keep a project like Riese afloat. The few of us that are responsible for producing Riese on a day-to-day basis are realistic that we cannot sustain it without the support of Fireworks and our viewers.

We hope to have everything back up as soon as possible, and we'll keep everyone posted as we move forward.« — [Källa]

A mysterious wanderer named Riese has been on the run in an online futuristic fantasy-adventure series—and now she (along with her webisodes) has run all the way to Syfy. Syfy Digital has acquired the rights to the entire award-winning 10-part series with an eye toward possibly developing it for broadcast on air, just as the channel did with the Web series Sanctuary.

Jag ser det som positivt, av det som jag sett (6 avsnitt) så är det väldigt lovande för mer.

Trist bara att serien går från att vara tillgänglig för alla till US-Only.

[Robert Jonsson]

Jag tycker det är oerhört gammalmodigt att de ska begränsa material till vissa regioner. Jag förstår att det gamla behovet för distribuering att göra så, men varje gång jag stöter på det blir jag ett snäpp mindre intresserad av det. Det är ett föråldrat sätt att hantera material på, liksom regioner på spel och DVD:er. Lägg ned.
