Interviews
==========
Victoria Morsell
................
Lorelei: You played the role of the herione, Adrienne. Could you tell me a bit
about your
character?
Victoria: Adrienne Delaney is a successful novelist, married to a photographer
named Don. At
the start of the story, they're very much in love. Adrienne's a pretty strong
person. Because
she's a writer, she's very inquisitive.....and if the player plays her right,
she's a hero.
If not, she dies.
Lorelei: I get the impression that she is in no way a typical ditzy horror movie
herione.
Victoria: Not at all-she's very smart. She doesn't do incredibly stupid things,
you don't see
her screaming in her underwear. The character isn't about decoration. She's a
very real
person.
Lorelei: How Refreshing!
Victoria: Isn't it? (laughs)
Lorelei: What was your experience prior to working on Phantasmagoria?
Victoria: I've done quite a bit of TV; mostly sitcom work. Most recently, I was
on the new
Wayans brothers Show. I had a recurring role on "Martin" for the first season.
Oh, and I just
finished a film called "The Random Factor."
Lorelei: What a great title! What is the Genre of movie is it?
Victoria: I guess you'd call it a sci-fi/drama/comedy.
Lorelei: Sounds like fun! Speaking of science fiction, what did you think of
acting on a
virtual set with the blue screen?
Victoria: I've never done anything like it. It was weird! You knwo the sort of
feeling like you
don't know where you are. There's no set at all. You place yourself in the
environment by
looking at the monitor. You get used to it, but it's like being in a limbo at
first.
Lorelei: There are a lot of special effects in this game. Were you in many of
those shots?
Victoria: Not as many as you might think. Most of the really extreme effects at
the end of the
game were filmed with models of my head and body. Unlike David and Robert, I
didnt have to wear
too much makeup, either. At one point I had to get all muddy and wet...it was
kinda gross! It
was really weird to get the plaster cast of my face done. The special effects
guys kept saying
You might panic once your face is covered, but I said nah, I'll be fine. Yeah,
Right. When they
put the last layer over my face, it was an awful sensation, like being buried
alive. To tell
you the truth, it was pretty scary. It made me get all paranoid.
Lorelei: Had you worked with animals before?
Victoria: I had never worked with animals before, but I have three cats at home.
The movie cats
where great. There were actually two of them, playing the same cat. One was
better at jumping
and leaping around, and the other was really mellow.
Lorelei: Did you work with rats much?
Victoria: No, I didn't have to work with rats directly, but I used to have mice,
so I wouldn't
have minded, I saw them in their cage. They were pretty cute!
Lorelei: Was working on a multimedia project different from other acting
experiences?
Victoria:In a way it was really filmlike, but it was more technical. I found it
challenging,
because it was more physically constructive. You had to stay within the shot or
you'd find
yourself walking through couch. It was strange to do so many different versions
of the same
scene.
Lorelei: Ah, the glamour of the silver screen. Other than offscreen kibitzing,
what did you
find the most challenging about the project?
Victoria: When we were filming the final scene, and I'm strapped into the chair
pleading for my
life. It was a difficult scene to start with. I had to work up a lot of geniune
emotion--and
then we had to film several different versions. It was hard to keep that up for
take after
take.
Lorelei: I'll bet! What are you working on now?
Victoria: I'm taking a break. I have lots of things in the works, though.
Lorelei: So, I've heard rumors of an offscreen romance with your Phantasmagoria
co-star, David.
Victoria: That's right! We just hit it off from the very start We're together
now.
Lorelei: That's wonderful. Is there anything you'd like to add?
Victoria: Just that I had a great time working on this project. Cindy, David and
I were the
three musketeers. We all had a lot of fun. The Sierra people were all so nice.
It was better
than working on film. There was much less ego.
Lorelei: Would you want to do another multimedia project?
Victoria: Yes, Definitely!
David Homb
..........
Lorelei: What projects have you worked on before Phantasmagoria?
David: I've had a lead role in seventeen different movies, and I've done some
guest starring on
TV, and quite a bit of theatre.
Lorelei: Tell me a little bit about the role you played in Phantasmagoria.
David: Well, I play a photographer, the husband to Adrienne. We buy this
incredible house in
the country, and she happens to let out a bit of a bad spirit. It takes me me
over, and I go from
a loving, nice, hardworking husband to an extremely dark, sinister, manipulating
villian.
Lorelei: Was that a different kind of role for you?
David: Yeah. I'd never done anything heavy like that at all.
Lorelei: You'd never played a bad guy before?
David: No!
Lorelei: What did you think of working on a multimedia project?
David: It was wonderful. It was one of the best experiences I've ever had in the
entire
entire entertainment business.
Lorelei: Why was that?
David: Working in a new medium, first of all. Second of all, I had a lot of
freedom with the
part. Roberta and the director Peter gave me a lot of freedom. And of course,
since the game
has different pathways, sometimes we'd film four different responses to question
from one of
the other characters, ranging from polite to psycho. That was a lot of fun.
Lorelei: That must have been different.
David: It was. It was very technical. Even more technical than film, with the
blue screen and
all. We'd be in the middle of a scene, and they'd yell "Cut! David, your arm is
going through
the living room wall!" (Laugh) Keeping that stuff in mind kept you on your toes.
Lorelei: What are you going to be working on next?
David: Im going to be co-starring in Orion's next picture, then Im going to
Texas to star for
six weeks in a medieval action-adventure.
Lorelei: How Wonderful! Would you ever work in a multimedia project again?
David: Oh, abosutely!
Lorelei: Anything else you wanted to add?
David: Just that I really enjoyed this whole experience. Roberta and everybody
were really,
really good to work for. Im looking forward to playing the game! My little said,
" So when we
play, will we be able to kill you?" and I sad " Oh, Sure, Several Ways!" and she
said "Well,
good bubba!"
Lorelei: Thats great!
David: Youll have to catch me first though.

eyeball located
on the lower right hand side of the interface panel. The object appears in 3-D

Interviews
==========
Victoria Morsell
................
Lorelei: You played the role of the herione, Adrienne. Could you tell me a bit
about your
character?
Victoria: Adrienne Delaney is a successful novelist, married to a photographer
named Don. At
the start of the story, they're very much in love. Adrienne's a pretty strong
person. Because
she's a writer, she's very inquisitive.....and if the player plays her right,
she's a hero.
If not, she dies.
Lorelei: I get the impression that she is in no way a typical ditzy horror movie
herione.
Victoria: Not at all-she's very smart. She doesn't do incredibly stupid things,
you don't see
her screaming in her underwear. The character isn't about decoration. She's a
very real
person.
Lorelei: How Refreshing!
Victoria: Isn't it? (laughs)
Lorelei: What was your experience prior to working on Phantasmagoria?
Victoria: I've done quite a bit of TV; mostly sitcom work. Most recently, I was
on the new
Wayans brothers Show. I had a recurring role on "Martin" for the first season.
Oh, and I just
finished a film called "The Random Factor."
Lorelei: What a great title! What is the Genre of movie is it?
Victoria: I guess you'd call it a sci-fi/drama/comedy.
Lorelei: Sounds like fun! Speaking of science fiction, what did you think of
acting on a
virtual set with the blue screen?
Victoria: I've never done anything like it. It was weird! You knwo the sort of
feeling like you
don't know where you are. There's no set at all. You place yourself in the
environment by
looking at the monitor. You get used to it, but it's like being in a limbo at
first.
Lorelei: There are a lot of special effects in this game. Were you in many of
those shots?
Victoria: Not as many as you might think. Most of the really extreme effects at
the end of the
game were filmed with models of my head and body. Unlike David and Robert, I
didnt have to wear
too much makeup, either. At one point I had to get all muddy and wet...it was
kinda gross! It
was really weird to get the plaster cast of my face done. The special effects
guys kept saying
You might panic once your face is covered, but I said nah, I'll be fine. Yeah,
Right. When they
put the last layer over my face, it was an awful sensation, like being buried
alive. To tell
you the truth, it was pretty scary. It made me get all paranoid.
Lorelei: Had you worked with animals before?
Victoria: I had never worked with animals before, but I have three cats at home.
The movie cats
where great. There were actually two of them, playing the same cat. One was
better at jumping
and leaping around, and the other was really mellow.
Lorelei: Did you work with rats much?
Victoria: No, I didn't have to work with rats directly, but I used to have mice,
so I wouldn't
have minded, I saw them in their cage. They were pretty cute!
Lorelei: Was working on a multimedia project different from other acting
experiences?
Victoria:In a way it was really filmlike, but it was more technical. I found it
challenging,
because it was more physically constructive. You had to stay within the shot or
you'd find
yourself walking through couch. It was strange to do so many different versions
of the same
scene.
Lorelei: Ah, the glamour of the silver screen. Other than offscreen kibitzing,
what did you
find the most challenging about the project?
Victoria: When we were filming the final scene, and I'm strapped into the chair
pleading for my
life. It was a difficult scene to start with. I had to work up a lot of geniune
emotion--and
then we had to film several different versions. It was hard to keep that up for
take after
take.
Lorelei: I'll bet! What are you working on now?
Victoria: I'm taking a break. I have lots of things in the works, though.
Lorelei: So, I've heard rumors of an offscreen romance with your Phantasmagoria
co-star, David.
Victoria: That's right! We just hit it off from the very start We're together
now.
Lorelei: That's wonderful. Is there anything you'd like to add?
Victoria: Just that I had a great time working on this project. Cindy, David and
I were the
three musketeers. We all had a lot of fun. The Sierra people were all so nice.
It was better
than working on film. There was much less ego.
Lorelei: Would you want to do another multimedia project?
Victoria: Yes, Definitely!
David Homb
..........
Lorelei: What projects have you worked on before Phantasmagoria?
David: I've had a lead role in seventeen different movies, and I've done some
guest starring on
TV, and quite a bit of theatre.
Lorelei: Tell me a little bit about the role you played in Phantasmagoria.
David: Well, I play a photographer, the husband to Adrienne. We buy this
incredible house in
the country, and she happens to let out a bit of a bad spirit. It takes me me
over, and I go from
a loving, nice, hardworking husband to an extremely dark, sinister, manipulating
villian.
Lorelei: Was that a different kind of role for you?
David: Yeah. I'd never done anything heavy like that at all.
Lorelei: You'd never played a bad guy before?
David: No!
Lorelei: What did you think of working on a multimedia project?
David: It was wonderful. It was one of the best experiences I've ever had in the
entire
entire entertainment business.
Lorelei: Why was that?
David: Working in a new medium, first of all. Second of all, I had a lot of
freedom with the
part. Roberta and the director Peter gave me a lot of freedom. And of course,
since the game
has different pathways, sometimes we'd film four different responses to question
from one of
the other characters, ranging from polite to psycho. That was a lot of fun.
Lorelei: That must have been different.
David: It was. It was very technical. Even more technical than film, with the
blue screen and
all. We'd be in the middle of a scene, and they'd yell "Cut! David, your arm is
going through
the living room wall!" (Laugh) Keeping that stuff in mind kept you on your toes.
Lorelei: What are you going to be working on next?
David: Im going to be co-starring in Orion's next picture, then Im going to
Texas to star for
six weeks in a medieval action-adventure.
Lorelei: How Wonderful! Would you ever work in a multimedia project again?
David: Oh, abosutely!
Lorelei: Anything else you wanted to add?
David: Just that I really enjoyed this whole experience. Roberta and everybody
were really,
really good to work for. Im looking forward to playing the game! My little said,
" So when we
play, will we be able to kill you?" and I sad " Oh, Sure, Several Ways!" and she
said "Well,
good bubba!"
Lorelei: Thats great!
David: Youll have to catch me first though.
