Hi everyone. So I've had this video project running around in my mind for the last few weeks now. It's been BEGGING to get out of my head and onto the forums, but I haven't said anything because I hadn't done my own part yet. So what am I trying to do?
I want to create a video montage of as many Saber Forum members together as possible. Think of it this way: Someone watching the video would get an introductory glance at the Ultra Sabers product and the community at the same time. The way I personally see it is as kind of like the beginning to a TV show where there are clips of each of the cast members doing their thing, with one shot of them standing there and their name on the screen. Think like.. oh I dunno.. Knight Rider, The A-Team, or any other of your favorite TV shows and look at the intro to the show. That's what I want to do.
So what do I need from you? If you'd like to participate, I need about 30 seconds of video from you doing what you do best: spins, flourishes, strikes, poses. You can be in costume or you can be in regular clothes. It does need to be during the daylight, so having your saber on is not needed. I also don't need any sound as I am going to add music to the video. I don't need you to edit it and it doesn't need to be perfect as I will probably cut it up and reorder it anyway. I am looking to make the video about 4 or 5 minutes long, maybe a little longer, depending on how many people want to contribute and how much video I get from you.
Oh, one other thing. I'll need a still shot of you standing there so we can see you clearly and I can add your forum name to the shot.
What do you all think? Do you want to participate?
I'm doing it as a thank you gift to the US team for the hard work they do.
Oh, and here's a clip of my intro that I threw together today. This wont be the one I use. I'll make a new one, but this is sort of what I am looking for. Oh and don't mind the stupid face I was making... you have NO idea what I was thinking!
