Chic points out the writers who are in the audience, they stand and we applaud them.
Then they took questions from the audience.
The first question was from a little boy who asked Jessica if there was going to be a Dark Angel video game.
Jessica: Cameron would have control over that, along with Fox. I would only be the product, she then looked over to Chic.
Chic: We are actually in discussions with Fox at the present time.
The next is a guy in the front row who has flowers for Jessica.
A teenage girl had a poster and a poem that she wants to give to Jessica. Valarie passes her microphone down to the girl so she can read it. She goes up to give the poster and poem to Jessica and gets a hug.
Jessica are you nervous at award shows.
Jessica: Yes, and I feel like such a dork at those awards shows. I get so nervous. Your voice echoes... so loud.
A question for all four of the actors: Are you anything like your characters?
Everyone on stage looks at Valarie and they all laugh as do the audience.
Val: I think we all become more like them as the show goes on.
Jessica: You have to be careful when you talk to the writers.
Michael: You end up with interesting nicknames. My father calls me "Junior." I remember telling Chic a story about that, and then it shows up in a script where Logan's family is calling him "Junior."
Jessica: I'm more nervous and girlie. And not genetically engineered.
Michael: I want to be more like Logan Cale. I want to leave myself behind and become that guy.
Val: Want me to blow your knees out?
Alimi: I’d like to be Herbal. He’s the kind of guy who’s got integrity and follow through. He's disciplined.
Val: All the characters on the show have their own strong identities. There are qualities I'd like to have more of. I'm a lot goofier. Original Cindy could be my buddy.
Audience questions about working with directors.
Chic: Our show got ordered in May and started shooting in July. It was hard to assemble the team, especially the directors. The show has the same dramatic demands, with characters and compelling scenes, but it also has the visual style and action. These directors are working with new people, and it's a "getting to know you, getting to know all about you" process.
I hope we can use some of these same directors in the second season.
Audience question about planning story lines; how many seasons do you have planned out?
Alima: He holds up both hands and both feet to indicate 20.
Chic: Cameron says he's got it all planned, but we've been winging it. It's bad, because there's that terror, but it's good, because the writer’s are not steering the season.
Cameron distrusts bibles, the show is revealing itself to them. Only figure it out by writing it. They're never more than three episodes ahead of the one they're working on.
Jessica: It's good that the audience has an opinion. We see the responses from our fans.
Chic: We've experimented with different tones. The episode with the genetic conference, Prodigy, was serious, not a lot of humor, where "Art Attack" was mostly fluff. Fox is a little cautious about the darkness.
Audience question about whether the show will ever be shot outside Seattle.
Jessica: Hawaii.
Val: Florida.
Audience question about whether there's going to be a movie.
Chic: We can't take the show on the road. We’re routinely over budget. It's too premature to speculate on a movie. We'd need years of success to do a movie. Cameron is more focused on doing a good TV show.
