Title: cRPG Trailer Project

Hello forum browser, you seem to have stumbled upon my humble thread.  The title should be relatively self explanatory, however if not allow me to clarify for you.  This is my cRPG Trailer Project.

For those of you who know what is what, but don't know what is what and just strut, check out this cheeky little thread (tldr: there is a contest to make a trailer for the cRPG front page): http://forum.meleegaming.com/announcements/new-promotion-video-contest/

In the contest thread there have been some fine entries, my aim here is to create a group project that will make the best possible trailer to really show cRPG in all its glory.  I am hoping to bring a collection of talented individuals from the cRPG community as well as a few of the 'legends of cRPG' known by the community into the project.  My aim here is to make a cinematic style trailer, within cRPG telling a story while showing of the many interesting and diverse features of the game.

I have already managed to bring a several names into this project, currently the list of members is: Berenger, Bjarky, Christo, Dexxtaa, DiagonaL, Gnjus, Elio, Thomek, Thovex,

We are still looking for people to fill a number of roles:
We're hoping this project will really take off, but we still need more people to get involved for it to be realized.  Our first meeting will be on Wednesday Tuesday at 8PM BST, if you are interested in taking part in this project please leave a comment in this thread, send me a message on the forums or contact me on steam: Casimir4794.

Steam will be used tor organizing events and discussing ideas: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/crpgtrailer

Meetings will be held on NDitions TS : 62.104.20.250:10027

Good luck, here's some advice just because I care:

-Don't pick enthusiastic amateurs, but someone who has at least done one qualitative work. How do you know something is qualitative? Compare with other game trailers, consult with others.
-Be objective, focus on the work itself, not how much you like the person behind it.
-Make reasonable deadlines, reasonable goals and reasonable expectations
-Be realistic
-Start the planning state early and make sure everything goes by the plan
-Discipline

My advice will probably not interest you, but I hope you heed some of it as I too have cRPG's best interest in mind. :wink:

I'd like to volunteer as screen cast. I can be your last resort mapmaker, but I'd rather not as it's rather time consuming.

I can participate in the Story Boarding, I got a couple of ideas in mind  :D.

You could use these settings for good quality on Youtube:

Capture at 60fps, fullscreen and no sound with PlayClaw (http://www.playclaw.com/).
Edit using Sony Vegas, After Effects then render uncompressed.
Render the uncompressed file at 1080p, h264 extension, 30fps and at 10mbps - 20mbps with HandBrake (http://handbrake.fr/).

All right and okay Burrick.

But your capturing fps (not ingame) shall never be higher or lower then the fps you aim for in the final vid.

If they dont match there is a loss in quality.

Ive been jotting down a few ideas that I've had.  Will look at getting some footage over the next few week.s

I'm still looking for people with ideas that they'd like to see in the trailer.

Lmao great video. And yes proper attitude. DO IT FOR THE BETTER OF THE TEAM/ARMY! We have reserves after all and melee ground fighters are worth less than archers.

It's in this order  Cavalry > Archer > Melee Infantry


It's for the greater good!

Will be picking up the pace of the project beginning next week.  Starting to get some footage from strat battles and on the normal servers.  Next weekend I will hopefully start doing some on the cinematic works.

Damn, I hate having so much work, I would have loved taking care of the storyboarding.
I can at least help with the post production, special effects and so on (titles, etc.), if I can be of any help.
Title: Re: cRPG Trailer Project
Post by: Casimir on October 09, 2012, 02:15:12 pm
Story boarding is still on goign mat,e feel free to contact me on steamif you wish to contribute.

(Its more just a list of ideas ive had than a proper story board ATM)

How would the trailer project team feel if I asked if I could compose the score to it? Should they want an original score that is?

I've got some samples of what I can do.

Ideas?

EDIT: I have Logic Pro and I can get access to sample libraries of effects and folly sounds.

My source is that I'm a degree student at the ACM (Academy of Contemporary Music)
