If you're not sure where to get SotC footage...

Innuendo88 on YouTube has some great HD footage that he is allowing people to use as long as he's listed in the credits You can edit this footage by getting the VideoDownloadHelper add-on for FireFox which rips videos from YouTube (and most other video/music s



feel free to post your WIP videos in the thread

What kind of music video are you looking for? I'm interested, I have enough time to make some videos now.

[OA]

Dramatic in-game footage of some colossus battles, riding, pensive moments, whatever, set to the cues in the song. :-)

it doesn't need to be fancy, but it does need to be tightly cut.

[Chernabogue]

I can do something like that. The song inspires me a lot.

However, I'd need some SotC footage you'd like to see (because I've never played this great game, don't blame me :D).

[OA]

(i haven't either.. ;_; )

[Modus]

I do these all the time :) Let me know if you like my past work.. I'd be honored to make you a video:

And on a lighter note :-P :

And an FYI: These are all 1-day projects with little attention to tight detailing. I would work with you to fine tune every second of the video however long it takes :)

Whether you want me to make it or not, I'm curious about the purpose of the video. Is it for OCR?

[Chernabogue]

OA, can we use footage from other games than SotC then? I've no particular idea, but it can be good.

Hi. My name is Flik, and I've been producing TV commercials for over 5 years. There's a chance I may have some experience with this...vid...videeeeo ed-eating thing? Hit me up sometime and we can talk.

o.o
If you haven't already decided on who you want to help, I could give it a shot n_n

I use both Windows Movie Maker, and Sony Vegas 7.0.

Best AMVs with WMM: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gstFef9rhR8 & http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCVKg8hrUy8
(Please keep in mind that WMM has epic fail quality, so it messed up a few things in both of those... >_>;; )

And my only 2 vids made with Vegas so far: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-E3JtCkv2BI & http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIg-wNSAP-4
Yes, both are short...the first is a Beta, and the second was made for a contest on another website (I was very iffy on adding that one...but, the editing is still there, so I said "why not?")


(I just realized that 3/4 of my vids are from the same thing... o-o; wow xD)

check us out http://stitchedwingdesigns.com/ the site is not done but Stitched Wing Designs specializes in many types of corporate, commercial, and personal; video, photo and audio editing. and my bosses (owners ) AIM is customerservice@newrepair.com


video a member edited http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTGyJGG3yac and some 3d work http://stitchedwingdesigns.com/ourprojects/graphics.php#

Even though OA hasn't responded in a while, I think he'll be OK with saying that he has me working on a video. I mean, he could be having multiple people making videos and none of us know XD That might suck.

I think it would be really cool to hold some sort of contest for the music video even though I already made most of it. I'll even PM him about the idea. I'm basically risking the chance he wouldn't choose my video anymore, but I say let the best man win, you know? He should get the best video possible because that's what the mix and this site deserves.

You can see what I've done so far for it. I didn't get the impression from OA that this is a confidential project but I'd still appreciate it if this link wasn't shared outside of this thread... just in case. Hope you enjoy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SociyneQDcE

That sounds like a good idea to me! I was considering using that track to make a video with anyway, just because it was so awesome :P

Also:but I say let the best man win, you know?
Best man...or girl ;P lol

[OA]

if you guys want to compete to make the best video, then by all means!

I'll update the first post, but the deadline for a completed video is Dec 1.

There's some specifics OA mentioned to me about the requirements that he didn't list, so I'll provide those:

Good luck everyone :]

[OA]

thanks Exobyte, I am a little scatterbrained today. :-)

[Modus]

Yep. BTW, there's a PS2 emulator for PC that can play SotC in upscaled (correction: genuinely enhanced!) resolution.. so you can cap even better footage if you have an insanely good CPU. it's pretty dang intensive :p

And you have to own a PS2 and a copy of SotC if you wanna do it that way... *wink*

[Chernabogue]

Alright! Count me in! :)

1. All video has to be shadow of the colossus footage or directly related to the game.

Would making sweeded videos about it count as being related to the game?

[OA]

Would making sweeded videos about it count as being related to the game?

Like with Swedes and other things related to Sweden?

[Modus]

Like with Swedes and other things related to Sweden?

I think he's talking Be Kind, Rewind style which would probably be extremely entertaining XD Mega64 already did a sweeded type of thing.. in public, obviously. Good stuff.

[Flik]

I guess it's time to bust out the editing skills if I have time at home. Would be nice if I could just come in after hours to work since I know things will just WORK here.

[WaywardSon]

Yup, that's the one. Could be very fun, if done properly. An example can be found here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMdwkpVV0QA).

[Modus]

Well, the thing is that the video is for a pretty specific purpose. I think OA forgot to mention what that is. I won't say anything just in case it's secret or something.. I dunno. He'll probably tell you guys.

I don't mean to keep speaking on OA's behalf, but he also told me the video needs to be "epic and badass". Alright, I'll stop being the middleman now :p

*invisible*

[OA]

Hey guys, EPIC AND BADASS

[Chernabogue]

Hey guys, EPIC AND BADASS
Mine will be EPIC AND BADASS (I think). :)

[Modus]

I was hoping to tweak this a bit more, but my desktop computer is in need of expensive repairs and I have no time to sleep thanks to college and my job, let alone work on personal projects.

So this is my submission. Note that if it wins and it needs tweaking, I probably won't be able to do that until mid-December (but also keep in mind I work quickly ;] ) Enjoy! And good luck to all participants.. I'm excited to see more videos.

[B33J]

I has a forum post in a relevant thread.

Looking forward to some good videos!

[Chernabogue]

My Vegas went completely wrong and the support couldn't help me, so I won't be able to make it before the 1st. Sorry :(

[Cerrax]

Can I compete even though I'm one of the mixers of the song? I figure I have an unfair advantage since I know exactly what was going through my head as I wrote this remix :P

Anyway, here's my submission: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OA4zV0pmaM

Obviously higher quality is available at upon request. This is just the baseline quality I use for YouTube.

[Bakuri]

Awz, I wanted to enter, but school decided to screw me over and I never had enough time to make a vid T-T

[OA]

Info on the winner shortly! :D

[Modus]

I only see 2 entries! I am disappoint, sons :(

[Cerrax]

So...any news on this?

[OA]

We have voted, and the winner will be 'announced' and premiered at Magfest!

[Modus]

Aww.. I'm not going to MAG. Someone post who won after the event, if you would.
