7/26/2006 - New Opening Sequence, Plots; Clerks II

 

The Executive Producer Stephen Stohn posted yesterday on Degrassi.tv with some various news. The biggest news is the new opening sequence for season 6. In the new opening sequence the theme song has been remixed with no vocals. Also as for content each cast member will be shown onscreen separately in the foreground with past scenes swirling behind them like memories, this is a much different approach to the opening sequence than the previous 5 seasons and sounds like it will give the show a whole new more "grown up" image. He also mentions that they just finished the final soundmix and post-production for 601 and that the ongoing storylines of the graduated characters mix well with the Degrassi storylines. He also mentions of course there are a few new characters too. Last bit of Season 6 news is that they just finished filming 608 and are starting on new Instant Star episodes.

In a final bit of info he mentions that the whole Degrassi and Instant Star Cast/Crew went to see Clerks II over the weekend. His reaction: the grossest movie ever; yet very funny and oddly romantic.

Of course as always check back often for the latest Degrassi news. Here is his post below:

"Hello, hello.

We're just in the process of finalizing the opening sequence--it's quite different from the past, as for the most part each individual cast member will have a shot of them in the foreground, with key past scenes featuring them in the background like swirling memories. The music is essentially the same music, but remixed to be more modern and with no vocals anymore.

We've also just completed the soundmix and post-production on 601 and I think you will be pleasantly shocked at how well the ongoing storylines of the characters who have graduated mix with the storylines of the characters who are still attending Degrassi--and yes there are a few new characters, and I think you're going to end up really liking them.

We've completed shooting up to episode 608, and are now shooting the first two episodes of Instant Star.

On the weekend, a whole group of the Degrassi and Instant Star cast and crew joined us to see the new Kevin Smith movie (Clerks 2)--which is totally the grossest film I think I've ever seen, but very funny, and oddly romantic at the same time."
