Good idea! It should be a fun contest.

I'm down with this.

[Hypnotoad]

Same, I've been planning to make a video like this for a while now.

[Ivan]

Very nice.


Would have been better if you showcased more than just Duel32 and LegendaryCTF, but still pretty good. :p

Agreed. Why not showcase some more Zand mods? Don't let them get cold and alone. ;-;

Actually this was my main problem with this video, I was really short on footage but on the other other end, the music is rather short so I think it turned out nicely. :)

Do it! We need more of these!

I support these but not the contest idea. Why don't we just combine the efforts to make a full length video instead? I really like Dark's video and the music used in it, so we might just as well combine certain things, like other mods. This showcases the game modes of old school type, the rest could show newer ones.

Actually thought of making a trailer before leaving to Italy. This should be fun. I'm in for making one.

That's not a bad idea either. I quite like the idea of combining efforts to make one video. It could be a little challenging getting it organized though.

[Ruin]

I'm glad you guys liked my video! :)

I don't know about a contest, but making more videos is totally what I look forward to. In order to achieve a much more complete video, I could use some more demos. The main problem with my current video like I've said before, is that I lack footage... Though this could be easily resolved with a bit of help from the community.
Organizing a sort of mega-collab could be much more simple than that: You submit a demo file in which you achieve something either impressive or funny, bundle it with a text file describing it. All the players could also suggest some tracks to be used within the video file and there would be one crazy person to compile and edit all this. :)

I look forward to seeing this work out. I'll have to dig through my demo files when I have time and see what I can find.

Ah, good idea. That way no ones efforts are wasted. Get recording, people.

The fancy duelers should alias & duel to 10 or 15, on a small map, repeatedly until there's a flashy and perfect match

Should take a while but its bound to happen sooner with a low frag count

[Ijon Tichy]

you wouldn't need an entire match

just twenty or thirty seconds should be plenty

[Ænima]

I think we should all record 15-second snippets from random mods, maps, and gamemodes, and then put all of those together in a giant video. Having to watch 5 minutes of a duel or CTF doesn't exactly show off the engine features well to a newbie ...

[Catastrophe]

Teamwork never works considering how unorganized forums can be, people should just work on it by themselves. Maybe afterwards people can try to combine videos.

[Samurai]

I have sony vegas pro, but have no idea on how to use it to good effect which is a waste.

Anyway i'd be happy to submit a few ctf clips i have if you're making some sort of montage.

The question with that is video quality consistency. Framerate, resolution, widescreen/standard, sounds/music...etc.

[Strych6]

Is there a cut-off time for submissions?

Vegas is a perfect tool and it is extremely simple to use. Below is the timeline of the video seen under Vegas:

You can fairly easily tell what is going on after watching the whole thing, and all of this took 3 hours to make, video recording included. :)

Is there a cut-off time for submissions?

I've yet to think about all of this, it is indeed quite a lot of wark and I would have to make clear submitting rules, in order not to end up with tons of cld files that I don't know how to use. :)

[Empyre]

Remember, there's more to Zandronum than just competitive modes.

[Kara Kurt]

Is there the right place to post our own Zand' videos or should we create a thread?

[Metal]

You can post them right here. It'll be easier to find them that way, instead of having random scattered threads everywhere.
