Maxloader.nl: The Movie

[mlockh19]

I know that Jakal has done a bit of this before, but I figured I'd have a stab at it.

I plan to screen capture scenes from the server using Fraps. I have tested and can capture 1080p video at 30fps and still be able to play at 60fps (I may play with this, but this should be fine), so I can see what I'm doing.

I will edit the video together, make it look nice, add some music (suggestions?), and upload it somewhere for people to see.

I currently plan on capturing the following for the video:
Spawn
S-Town (aerial)
C-Town
T-Town (arena, aerial?)
Botra (aerial, plus a few more)
Metro (aerial)
Cactar
Venice
Saison
Sheamas' Temple
A few Yeenoos things (with his permission of course)

If you have suggestions for places to record or want to help out in some way (actors?) let me know

I don't know when this will be done, as the editing will be done in what spare time I have, so no final date yet.

Yeah I've given up on capturing video. My compy can't handle it. but I'm glad you're doing it, I think somebody should for sure.

I'd love to help out with editing or anything you need just let me know. If you don't have a YouTube account I have one we can post them on if you'd like (with full credit to you of course).

Your title for this post gives me another idea, what if we wrote out a script and recorded and edited like a theatrical movie? It wouldn't have to be Hollywood quality or anything, just something fun that we'd probably all enjoy making more than watching.

[mlockh19]

This was actually an idea tossed around in In-Game chat. If people are up to putting a script together, I'd be for it.

[Der_Jakal]

I'd be happy to write a script. I should have more time for stuff like that in a week or so. I'll need to toss some ideas around with people though. that's how I think when script writing. plus we need to decide on some stuff (ie: genre, basic plot, who's in it, etc)

add the holy cathedral of the light to the list of things to record. You should make a separate video about our yeenoos vs. the light battle and include both sides.

[Zuggu]

Add the octagony thing in Zburgh too!

[Der_Jakal]

I'd like to have my execution chamber filmed. it's kinda in disrepair atm though...

[litmeuplol]

Can i be in it? If its not too full already

Yes i will be getting that . THat may be a good idea for the video with the plot...

I already got Zburgh, with the octogon thing. I got a few shots of it, and might get a few more.

Sure thing! If we're in game together i can help you fix it up if you want.

Sure. I already have shots of Wlol and Ace, so why not?

...YOU ARE FILMING ME?!
Thats OK.
Give credit to pestilencemage for making the cactus part of the skin!
Also make sure you get a shot of Maxloader doing something awesome!
Great Idea, I hope it goes well.

This brings up a good point. If you do not want to appear in the video, let me know here or in PM and if you somehow end up in a shot i will omit it.

I'll talk to sooneey about the plot and maybe we can come up with a script for it.

[Maxloader]

Cool, im pretty excited about this project!
...in other news, my internet at my new home should be working now so i will have to set the modem and router and wall connectors up soon.
And then, physically move the server to my new home and crank up the maximum slots to 30

[Der_Jakal]

^^Like^^

[wlollpop]

Hey Mlock, I thought it would be cool if you used the Depth of Field mod for this, because movies use depth of field a lot. Although it tends to lag if you have a lot of windows open. Otherwise, I thought it'd be pretty awesome for your use!

Does anyone have any suggestions for a soundtrack/music for the video? I feel that the music really generates the feel of the video, so i'd like to get this down before I begin editing. Better yet, does anyone have the ability to make music? This would help avoid the issues associated with using copyrighted songs

[Gazoid]

EddyT is a music producer...

Give him a poke

[Siduron]

As am i. I could also contribute music depending on what you think will fit best for the movie.

[Ace2910]

Is this project still alive? Hadn't seen many updates in a while.

[mlockh19]

Yes, I have to get updated footage of the server now. The past month has been busy for me, but I will be able to work on it more very soon

[Ash]

If you want to use anything in Falgrove (Castle/forest/etc) do feel free!

[litmeuplol]

Is this still on-going?
