Tom's BB10 House (built on the Sims 2)

[TomRocksUrSocks]

Hi.
I hope you like it. I made it on the Sims 2:

That's the front of the house. A large TV screen is directly in front of the stage for Davina to present on. As you can see the housemates must walk through an area nestled inside the wall to reach the front door.

Nice shot of the stairs. Could be used in the stings inbetween clips.

Enter the Big Brother house!

Through the door and into stair case. Pink, blue, yellow, pink, blue, yellow theme. That may or may not be in the logo.

Final image for now is of the stairs. This bit does have a ceiling but it wasn't showing up.

Comments, ideas on how to improve? Also, I'll try and do some arty ad style stuff.

Here's a logo. I'm about to remix the title music as someone suggested in another thread:

Whatever! Lol! It is Big Brother 2009.

[TomRocksUrSocks]

Here is the theme music. You may think it sounds dull and repetetive but it works very well with the titles:

Big Brother 10 Info Pack

Big Brother is back and bigger and better than ever! 13 housmates will enter the house on the 29th May. This time, there are no house next door or twists. BBBM and BBLB have combined to produce Big Brother's Big Chat, an hour long programme that will run from 9:45 to 10:45 presented by Russell Brand (yes, he's back!) and Dermot O'Leary (and so is he!). Big Brother will last for 45 minutes and will start at 9:00. Oh, and the chickens are back! Oh yeah! The chickens! The series will last for 11 weeks and evictions will be one hour long. Also the 10pm show is scrapped so as soon as Davina announces the evicted housemate they'll leave. Also the box task is returning (yay!). Every spinoff show is also scrapped other than BBBC. Live feed is back via mobile, internet and red button. You can vote for who you want to evict on the BB website. More info coming soon!

[TomRocksUrSocks]

This is the new banner thingy which has numbers. I've also given BB a new font, if you like it then say but I've also asked someone for the official C4 font:

Also about to go and build some more of the house.

Just a quick update on the front of the house. Added some security fencing.

http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/7527/snapshot0000002676ddfb2.jpg
Housemates will walk through a blue glass door. The white door on the right is the Diary Room. There is a section with green carpet. We also have blue sofas.


http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/3537/snapshot0000002676ddfb3.jpg
Only the dining area. Nice shot because you can see the wall and the picture.


http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/75/snapshot00000026d6ddfb8.jpg
This picture's rubbish because it doesn't show much but you get the idea. Posh stone with posh black stuff.


http://img22.imageshack.us/img22/5395/snapshot00000026f6ddfb5.jpg
There's the entrance to the bathroom.


http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/4382/snapshot0000002636ddfba.jpg
Yellow kitchen. Very similair to the kitchen in my Sim Brother series.


http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/1810/snapshot0000002616ddfb4.jpg
Very blue bedroom. There are 10 single beds. I quite like it.


http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/1396/snapshot00000026f6ddfbc.jpg
And finally, the black and red diary room. Circular chair with two red lamps where housemates will nominate, bitch and just chat.

GARDEN COMING SOON...

I think the tables can be improved, the kitchen would look better along a wall and the bedroom is a bit small. :thumbs:

[Sam!]

Oo and the diary room is pretty nice.

[bronaaaa]

The outside is amazing, not too sure about the inside though

[TomRocksUrSocks]

OK, from now on if you don't like something you've got to tell me how to improve it.

[Brekkie]

The house is nice enough, but seems to be lacking the one thing so crucial - two way mirrors!

The info pack doesn't sell the show at all and is rather unrealistic - Russell and Dermot are never coming back, and them doing so wouldn't help the show in the slightest either.

[TomRocksUrSocks]

OK, what would you sugget?

The only way in sims to have two way mirrors is to have a window then the mirror inside the window. Thats what I do.

There must be new housemates yes cause if you have weekly evictions for 11 weeks then thats 10 evictions. Leaving three in the final. Unless you want it like that.

[TomRocksUrSocks]

Yes, I do want 3 in the final. I hate how long finals stretch out.

[TomRocksUrSocks]

Do people like the titles?

[Rob]

the link is invalid, hense i cannot see them :laugh3:

[TomRocksUrSocks]

Yes, you can watch them, just copy and paste the link into the address bar, when you click on it it just takes you to TinyPic or whatever it is.

[Brekkie]

Link (http://s605.photobucket.com/albums/tt134/TomRocksUrSocks/?action=view&current=bb10titles.flv)

Visually for what they are it's very well put together - until the end at least, but the music just doesn't work for the titles - it's more a bed to be played in the background, not the music to tell you the show is starting.

[TomRocksUrSocks]

NEW NOMINATION FORMAT
For the first eviction week, housemates will nominate as normal, but after that they'll be split into teams-Team Big and Team Brother. Each week the teams will have a task and a leader, if they fail the task the leader must nominate him/herself and two people from their team to be put up for eviction, it's a bit like 'The Apprentice'. Do you like the idea or not?

[TomRocksUrSocks]

HELLO? DO WE LIKE IT?

[Marsh.]

Reduce your mood, it's stretching the page

[TomRocksUrSocks]

Done, now comment people! Lol.

[Marsh.]

The info pack doesn't really give anyone a reason to watch
You're only giving info on BBBC. The rest is all; this is scrapped, we're not doing that, that's scrapped.
Instead of mentioning that, mention what you ARE doing and make it sound interesting and more importantly... original.
(BTW no twists at all seems pretty boring)

[Rob]

im not keen on the titles, tbh if its on for three months and the music is going like that it would drive me insane! i like the current theme tune as it is

[TomRocksUrSocks]

OK, new pics:

Mysterious emoticons appeared on Windows Live Messeneger (MSN) last night. Several conversations were supposedly interuppted by a poster named 'Big Brother' who posted several emoticons and winks then left. Among them was a calendar on May with 29 circled, the new BB logo spinning round like a real eye, 13 stickmen being dropped into a house and the words 'We're coming to get you.'. This comes after Channel 4 apparently signed a mysterious contract with MSN two months ago. Among those who got sent the emoticons was Will Hately. "It was weird!" said Hately "I was just having a normal conversation with my mate Stew when someone called 'Big Brother' popped up and sent us a load of BB adverts. I was totally freaked out!" Big Brother starts on May 29.

That is what the eviction numbers will look like. Davina will then tell the housemates how long it is til eviction time to get everyone tense. Plus, no more stupid cramped studio. She'll announce from the middle of the stairs or the stage like she used to. The beginning of the Big Brother theme will play, housemates must get to the sofas when they hear the music, the music will then quieten, but will still be there and Davina will announce who is leaving. Then the bit where it all kicks in in the music she'll tell them "_______, you have been evicted, you have thirty seconds to leave the Big Brother house!" The person will say their goodbyes, walk up the stairs and wait by the door. The camera will show Davina standing in the middle of the stairs, will say something like "So quiet I have nothing witty to say about her, it's Debbie! (random name)" The camera will then move up to the doors which will open and the housemate will exit, do a pose, and walk down the stairs (Davina is already of the stairs and has made her way down to the end of the walkway and to the big arch of the studio, which will be opened up so everyone in the audience can see. When the evictee makes their way to the end of the walkway, Davina will lead them into the eviction stage where she'll interview them. There will be a car waiting to the right of the end of the walkway, Davina will say goodbye to them after the interview and the person will get into the car and drive off. Davina then announces what's coming up in the week to come, says goodbye and it shows the live reaction from the house as the end credits begin to roll.

Sorry it's long, but that's what I need to say! Lol! Go and give your brain a rest now after reading this, you must have a headache!

[TomRocksUrSocks]

I got some one way mirrors! Oh yeah!

Comments please?

[TomRocksUrSocks]

Please comment because when I make stuff and I don't get replies I feel like I'm wasting my time and doing it for nothing.

[ILoveTRW]

I light the graphics but there very intense and may give someone an epileptic fit

[TomRocksUrSocks]

I also built a house on SketchUp. It's a bit crappy because its my first time using sketchup:


http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/9338/outsidec.jpg
Entrance-The housemates will walk across a short ramp and into the cylinder entrance door.


http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/8366/hallway.jpg
This is the entrance. It's a very french wallpaper-y theme. On the wall it says 'Come on in...'


http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/627/livingarea.jpg
Finally they'll come through to the living area. Very colourful with rubbery plastic sofas similair to those used in BB7.

Which house do you prefer?

[TomRocksUrSocks]

What do people think?

PS I'm currently working on a second project.
