I need you consultance about these players:
heat, aftermatch, Avatar. Should I add all these three? Or which of them?

Have you found enough ideas to claim that the trailer would be 2-3min long ?

FOUR's trailer is a beast, and only last 1min. Unless you wanna make a similar trailer (but showing all the ~ 20-30 players), you don't need more than 1-1min30 imho.

And why did you choose 15-18min as movie lenght ? Is it in memory of the old 15+ min movies ? :)
It represents about 500GB of uncompressed startmovies I would say.

I know that trailer. The trailer for this movie will be way different from that one and I can give a tip: The trailer will be 1:35-1:36 long. About the movie length : if you count the jumpers "involved", there are like 90 nicknames there and there will be still added some forgotten stars. If I get an average of two demos from 70 of them I have 140 demos. )The trailer will of course not contain all the demos :D) But if you make simple calculations: 3min 30 sec for outro+intro and presentation of 140 demos which means like 5 seconds average only for a very simple presentation of the trick. Basically adding 3 min 30 + ~12 min trickjumps you get the correct number: 15+ minutes long. This is only if I make it simple. Of course I might be wrong and the number of demos received may be way lower or the trickjump presentation time may be longer, so it depends a lot on trickjumps I receive.

All in all it will be a big project, reminding you of old players(I can only say that I've got demos from 4 of them and don't ask who, tip: oldschool and famous). That's all for now.

Okay okay, so you exactly know where you're going, that's good ! :)

How is this whole project scheduled in your mind ? I mean, when will the democall end, how long will the edit take, etc... I know it's impossible to determine such things, but just tell us what you are hoping (in case everything is coming along nicely). ^^

In my opinion, I think I will find a moviemaker in ~1 month or less. About demos: I need only to contact some players like Moxx or ndR or faker or any other oldschool still active player who could find out where are the others. So if I do that way, I might collect the demos in let's say : by January? It depends when I decide to close the democall. If I receive constantly demos, I will of course let the democall opened for a longer period. Oh forgot to add: I won't start this one without a total of 120+ demos. I know it might sound mad, but it is possible.

Hi. I can see my name in a list - thx :D

I think you should invite rEs0LuTe to this project, he worthy enough to be here with all :)

DotAntipro11/11/2011 19:05

same for spr1n ! he got unique jb+eb

omilo11/11/2011 19:47

Cool project! What's the deadline for sending in demos and how many should it be?

More people could be added to that list, but unfortunately I know for a fact that they are very inactive, so there is no point in even trying most of them.

Basically, I can't tell now any time for a deadline because first of all I must make sure a lot of oldschoolers find out about this. Another teaser for you: from my list one of top5 oldschoolers started playing again and he gives me a demo. I mention: it's only for making it more "captivating":). I also try to get through now to a0ke, tarGet, kimo, donak0s, T3d. And of course I must not forget: Thanks to MepH and Lolz for helping me, they are really cool. And guys: if you see Moxx online give him link to this project and tell him add me in steam, he may help me a lot.

PS: Added rEs0LuTe and spr1n. thanks, DotAntipro

I thought much about it and I gotta say there was nothiing extra-special in reSPECT for sure, can't decide about rad. He definitively is good, but he doesn't fit the movie imo.

I can give the link to Moxx, but I can say that tarGet won't do it, for sure. He comes online once per year and hasn't played in more then 2 years. I would help with the rest, but I recently removed tons of people from my friends list so I don't have most of the other guys anymore :/.

Is reSPECT from poland as well or?


How do you guys define oldschool? Seems like people asume someone is oldschool as soon as they are inactive for more then 6 months. No offens but I don't see reSPECT as oldschool.

boom.dll sux at movie making :D

exort12/11/2011 14:02

hey markan!

xdrive12/11/2011 14:56

@exort i think he needs an oldschool moviemaker aswell:)

scmb12/11/2011 15:03(edited 12/11/2011 15:04)

maybe you can add chosen to editors list :)

Edit: damn i forgot to say Look :)

Torex-):-D moviemaker12/11/2011 17:41

u forgot chosen and Look, but most importantly where is 8ball1????
its a nice idea but srsly...a gaming movie with that lenght , few moviemakers and video quality just cant combine =D
unless if you could run this project for a year or so and not losing motivation, mby, just mby we will see smth good in the end
good luck

I am not very likely actually to hire ch0sen since he's more a troll moviemaker than a serious one, which makes me not trust him. L0ok? Where is he now? I have no idea. 8ball1? good idea, but I haven't seen him for a long time so I doubt I will. What I need for this movie is not an oldschool moviemaker, but oldschool players. I will put in my list 8ball1 of course, but I really doubt his nowadays moviemaking skills in comparison with others who already applied. I am not ignorant, but project has ideas difficult to reach, so that's why I will choose the best moviemaker(s) possible.
