It will be using only official Ice Planet sets, except the "base" will be some sort of ice cave translucent orange awesomeness. 

I didn't think about using something other than LEGO for snow, but it's potentially a great idea.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Looks very nice!  I'm definitely looking forward to it.  Are you going to use official Ice Planet sets, or make custom props/backgrounds?  I'd love to see vehicle/base designs that pay homage to the classic theme, yet also look modernized--kinda like the "Neo-Classic Space" MOCs.  

As for the grid sky, it's a really cool (pardon the pun :P ) idea, but I think it would work best for window-type things rather than the sky itself.  I'm thinking the explorers' base could be a giant transparent dome, or at least have one or several, or large windows, which have that sort of grid pattern.  Inside the base, the explorers would have a huge vista over the icy landscape.

In terms of ice, I think brick-built is the best way to go, since I think that it fits in the best as non-LEGO stuff usually looks really out-of-place and incongruous in brickfilms.  That being said, though, I really loved the sand effect in Egyptian Holiday, so I think you might be able to pull it off.

I also agree with Squid, the planet should be dark and mysterious.  I think it would look great if it had really dark starry skies, but be lit by diffused ambient light that seems to emanate from the ground (preferably bluish in colour).  Also, having tinted lighting in general would give the film a great futuristic/scifi feel.

Well, that's all for now.  Can't wait to see what you come up with!]]></content>

Of course, brick built ice would also be very cool.

Just having sugar though doesn't sound like a good idea to me.]]></content>

When you filmed the film Egyptian Holiday you used real sand and it looked very cool, and I know you won't use real snow, because that's not very good at filming and fast and rushed films are usually bad. But... I still hope that you would use sugar, flours or something else white matter instead of white plates. Then it will look much realistic (I think, my opinion) and I really hope it.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Double everything that Squid said, plus:

If you're going to go with a more classic look, and using the old sets and stuff, you may want to consider keeping the landscaping a bit more blocky and chunky. And also trying to expose a lot of studs. Now, I'm not sure if that'll look good or what, but it's something you may want to look into and test around a bit.

I'm thinking a cave scene where the walls are some transparent color and there's light coming from behind them would be really neat. It would give off a really cool "Glowing" vibe."]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[[quote=mobiledeli]I aim to please, so gimme some ideas![/quote]

At some point, have a high-speed chase through an icy canyon.  The good guys are on a rover whilst the bad guys are on some flying vehicle.  Bad guys are shooting at the good guys, but on of the good guys gets onto a turret on the back of the rover.

Also at some point, have some really cool ice monster.

Also, make sure that the Ice Planet itself very extremely mysterious and somewhat threatening, so the explorers know very little about it and have only recently set up base.  And make sure it has some really cool, and kinda creepy lighting.

And since this is based off of a classic theme, I think you should aim for a very classic scifi feel for the whole film, kinda like 60s Star Trek or [i]Forbidden Planet[/i].

Grid sky would look very cool if you could pull it off.
It should probably be some sort of shield set up by the explorers.]]></content>
