Need some help creating a donor benefits video.

We need a donor benefits video.
So I'm looking for 4 brave mercs to make this happen. And you will be well rewarded for your troubles.

First, the video must be professional. That being said, no in game talk or chat allowed in the video.
You must use only voice over. So the video must be well planned out first. Write up a script and
test out to give yourself time to go through each feature.
* No stupidly long intro's or outros.
-Thank yourself by getting it done.
* No obnoxious music.
-If any, should be very low.
* Make it concise
- Every thing a feature done (IE each footstep) doesn't need to be shown. Show 1 or 2, then just say 20+ more.
* Don't separate by Fun/Slaybox servers.
- Just go down a list by best to meh and mention if it's Fun server only.
* Explain how commands work. But don't show a lot of text.
- Will explain next.

OK so the video is done. But we don't have 1 menu to do all this from. In the video comments like to
a forum thread. In the forum thread you complete follow the same order of bonuses and explain how
to use each feature via commands. You covered this briefly in the video, but it's text so you can be
a little more in depth.

We have a lot of features. I'd highly suggest writing up a script. And doing a voice over live in game first.
You may want to practice with your camera zooms, or possibly do it all in cuts since you will have to show text
and final results. Each feature should have it's own quick intro, how to, and result. Then backed up in order
in a new forum post.


Rewards.
Pending completion and complexity of the video there will be 2 rewards voted by Redmins. If the video is
approved you will receive 8 1 month donor vouchers. These can be used by the creators or given away as
needed. If the video is kinda MEH, you get 4. Savvy?

I'm not a huge fan of the music but, despite that, I really like that video.

The video is actually pretty good. If you want it to be a contender:
- drop the volume
- slow down the words, so people can read them.
- sm_speak part kinda sucks
- color chat kinda sucks ( they can have any color possible, for instance.)

a few other knitpicky thigns someone else can ramble on about.

edit. sorry thought i should clarify.
I'd extend each part 5-10 seconds a piece. don't need more video. but with each benefit you show something briefly. Like footsteps, show the 1. say there are 22 more. Same with speak, and color chat.

Also tag critsandvich.com at the end.

Edit 3:

Add this to the end
http://69.175.33.149/redirect/sound/tem ... houtro.mp4
It says its corrupt but it's not. just save it. works in adobe. real player, ect.

yea i kinda thought those two parts were pretty bad but i was wanting to put out the video quickly. i can fix those easy.

but as for slowing everything down, i think that won't really work as it's meant to go along with the beat of the music. Unless i change the song entirely. i'll get some edits in by tomorrow

jk decided to make some edits now.

changelist:
- added "+ 28 more effects! (server dependant)" text on footprints clip
- changed voice binds clip
- added "All voice clips bindable!" text on voice bind clip
- added more colored text footage
- added "Any color you want!" text on colored text footage
- added CSN outro clip, fade out music
- added website tag on end
- turned music volume down

i believe that slowing the video down wouldnt work due to the pace of the music.

OK add 1 more thing. Best way to explain it. Before the music starts, add a frame with some text.
like:
critsandvich.com servers ad free since 2010.
supported by these non-game changing benefits.
see video notes for details and server info.

or something like that. then start music and go through the features. no music there. maybe just the heavy eating or something.

Godmin is also working on a video. We'll put them up for a vote when done.

I feel the same way about your post.

Anyway, good video. Hopefully mine will be able to compete.

From what I have seen Godmin has lost all interest in this, might as well not expect a video from him.
