    So I happened to stumble across

    and the video ideas just all of a sudden started coming to me. I don't know where you're at with the video mustarde, but I think I may have something here.

    It would require a night of internal scrims and multiple people recording. But if I can get the storyboard put together I think you'll be pleased.

    Alright I finally have a good grip on that Idea I was throwing around. I don't want this to invalidate mustarde's video, the amount of effort put into it so far it would be dumb of me to try and cast a shadow on it.

    This is a fairly simple video that can be put together in an hour, requires all the officers and actually everyone. But I know that getting the entire group together isn't very likely in summer.

    IDEA: Film everyone in their career outfit, fighting each other at one Hex. Have to figure that out yet, probably on Amerish because it's so pretty.

    Originally I was sweet on the idea for having jump cuts for everyone fighting each other, it would have to be choreographed pretty hard; person recording game play in scrim>gets killed>zoom cut to killer with nameplate>cut to their recording, rinse and repeat.

    In the interest of time and effort this was scrapped for the idea of just doing nameplates for the leads of the outfits and names on each faction.

    It will still be really cool, would try to get a floating camera view of at least everyone individually or cooperatively doing something awesome during the "scrim".

    Not sure on the exact numbers, but it would be NC and VS fighting with TR picking people off in the hills. I did have a point in mind on Indar for this but the name escapes me for now. There are specific points in the song where it would cut to the next faction. When it does that's when the recorded zoom or cut to a pose for the outfit leader would be shown, then moves on to individual play recorded from a 2nd person.

    In the interest of time constraints people would be doing something they want to be known for or something they really enjoy doing. Vehicles and aircraft are encouraged.

    The video would begin with us iined up for group pics in our factions split up for a photo, with libs/gals in the background. The camera zooms out and the NNG logo fades in as it zooms out. Then the action parts start.

    WHAT I NEED: One night, cameraman, I could record if needed, but my editing skills aren't up to snuff to get the nameplates edited in.
    This would be done on the PTS. If we could get the server smash people to cooperate so we can get their flying ball mode for this it would be super sexy, otherwise we can make this work with esf or light assault.
