Here's the deal. I'll make a fragged by Av3k movie. I want to use the best content possible, make the viewers' jaws drop and I'm pretty confident it's possible!
Some thoughts about the movie so far:
- I don't want to make a "tribute" video with a lot of pictures of Maciej, real life footage and all that bullshit... I think those are silly
- I just want to show quakelive frags, I'm pretty sure Av3k had some awesome frags in q3 and q4 but personally I think that mixing frags from different games isn't the best idea.
- I want to include frags from other gametypes, not only duels.
- I'm thinking whether I should use only frags from official games (online cups too) or just anything really (I think I'm gonna go for the latter.. more demos -> better content ..but much more work too)
I'll need a lot of help with finding the best frags. Obviously there's a lot of demos to go through.. Even gathering all the demos could take a couple of days. So yeah any kind of help is really welcome. If anyone's interested, you can either PM me or just leave a comment here. Oh, and it would be cool if I could contact Av3k.. does he have an account here or maybe there's some channel on irc where he idles?
Edit 14.08.2013
As donka proposed I made a public spreadsheet with some of the demos. Now everyone can participate in the creation process of the Av3k movie! Check the second row in the document to have a general idea what to do. Describe times with notes and use comments if in doubt. If by chance a demo doesn't work, colour it's cell in red. All vandalism is in vain, as I'll be making private backups.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0...2Znc#gid=0
Those demos are the ones from the pack by Spyyder. All taken in the period between 2009 and 2011. So here's a job for anyone willing to help but not really wanting to watch demos. Search and download demos from 2011 till now. Then either make a pack, or add them one by one to the list we already have.
Concerning Quake3 and Quake4, we also need people to look for demos. And as for Quake4 goes, I have no experience with movie making there, or even demo viewing. So it would be best if someone could lend a hand on that part (p0rt, shadowmaster? rofl) Otherwise, I'll have to drop the Q4 idea or take a lot longer to finish the movie. Sorry for my hectic english.
