Video (work in progress, will update)

[fl00d3d]

Alright, here are some things I noticed:

• The intro is way too long. Perhaps get FRAPs of all of these players (or some) in action and then flash their name on the screen as if it were an introduction. Rather than scrolling their names across the screen.
• The music should probably be a little more upbeat at the killing parts, but it's not too bad.
• Throw in some humor, it doesn't have to be all serious
• The video ends about halfway for me at around 1:52. Nothing is shown/heard after that.

EDIT: I just watched the 2nd video, and I personally think its worse. No offense. For some reason the screen is really blurry and bouncy (as if the compression messed up) and in half of the scenes you look like a total noob, lol.

If you want to make a video, we should get together all of the people that would be interested in such a project (ie. I know that loadedgun wanted to try his hand at a Renegade video). Then ask people to submit 5-30 second video clips of themselves playing Renegade. Then you can crop out scenes that you need and select those that fit best.

Plus, you need a choreographer. Adding music and effects at the right time will drastically change the emotion generated while watching a scene. For example: had you picked some really upbeat/fast song to play as you jumped off the building it would have seemed less emo (playing slow music as you jump off a building).

fl00d, did you watch the first or second video?

fl00d, did you watch the first or second video?

Both.

yaa, i sorta just put that clip of me jumping off to fill in space, everything else i had was like 2 seconds cuz it screwd up. All right... I really like that idea of getting ppl to get those 30 second clips, would be much easier and would make a good intro. So question is, for those ppl that i don't get vids up, do i just put in a screen w/ there name on it? i don't really some of the ppl.

Ok couple of questions, Fl00d you said the second one being blurry. If u r refferring to the intro, i think it's because the tranistions were taking up a lot of space, sorta hard to explain. But say i have the slides at 1.5 seconds, and I put in that "scroll up" transition, it takes up 1 second, so it's going a little fast. But if i do the intro with ppl it would be a lot better, in which case i might change the music to better suit the players vids they send in. If u r referring to me jumping off building, that's cuz i slowed it down, but i'm taking it out so it will be fine.
All right, Im going ingame right now so if anyone wants to join me just pm me ingame. Gonna go try out some sniping, maybe ask any mods ingame if they wanna send vids i dunno, but mostly gonan try to get some clips cuz im gonna have to go to work soon

and deathsta.. when you said show the mods instead of blackscreen... what did you mean? i mean, things im thinking of is like a mod photo lol. get all the mods together or somethign like that. or post pictures???
only problem i have with putting them on the video is it being distracting, but i'll see what i can do

What I meant was, instead of having a black screen scrolling through with all the admin/co-admin/mods - Have a video playing in the background so it stays interesting.

or You can go through the list of tsu members by having each of the members give you a clip to introduce themselves.

... what fl00d3d said.

I like the song though, nice choice.

ok, here are some options to fix up the intro.
There is an option where i can have more than one vid playing at a time, (i believe, i've seen it i'll just have to play around with it)
Here's what it could possibly be like. Imagine a square, not cut it into half vertically and horizontally, so you now have four squares. I could have one video in the top right playing of Limpy and one on bottome left playing Nightma. Then I could go on to show these maybe... 5 second clips? The problem i see with getting pics and vids of mods as an intro, is it will be longer. A pro for it though, it's a video, not just that black screen, so im going to wait for vids and ss's before i mess with the intro again. Im now working on the second song. (was in first vid, started with clapping)

[toadsdaki]

all right, here is the latest version of my work. I get about... maybe half way through the second song, and that's where i run out of clips. Thats what tomorrow is for no work
All right, things that I am changing, or completing. In the beginning, I show a entry clip. It's just of me harvy walking. I'm taking this clip out, as I use part of it later in the vid. So I'll need to find a new intro clip to use.
And I am still working on getting those sniper clips. I did get a bunch, but for whatever reason, the vids turned out to be half a second long, so I lost a lot of them. I get about 6 clips in I believe. I also have a different version where I make these little sniper clips twice as long, so they switch every OTHER clap you hear.
Also, even though it would look better, Im prolly gonna ditch the intro where I show clips of mods. Just takes to much time and effort to organize and get the many people to post a vid of theirs. I may or may not have a clip just running in the background. It's a work in progress. But anyways, I'm hopefully back so Im gonna try and finish this.
