Epic, because the music says so!

Enjoy!

Oh my God, Brody. This is freaking hillarious.

One small quibble: the lens effect in the beginning makes reading 2 lines difficult. All text based games should do this.

Brody · 10-09-2007, 11:19 AM

I'll pass that along to the director. He'll probably tell me he can't work under these deplorable conditions and demand a raise, but such is life!

And now for a more serious video: A preview of OtherSpace: Millennium, using a song that was contributed to us by a musician in Chicago named J. Atchley.

Okay, my sound doesn't work at the moment. (Who needs sound to play text games, right?) So, I didn't get to watch these with the full effect, but I am impressed! He did a great job. I always wanted to do something like this with all the awesome machinima out there, but I've never really figured out how to do it. (Mostly because it takes time to figure out something new, and I don't have a lot of that at the moment. ONE DAY!)

This looks like a lot of fun, and it's a great step for MU*s. Think your guy would like to give me any tips or a 101 course?

That's one way to get me to snort my breakfast in the morning.

Agreed with Boris on his comment though.

But great video Brody

Are you posting that around other RPG communities to get some converts?

Who did the music for that first one? Did you "appropriate" it from somewhere or was it some staff member/player? Was pretty funny

Brody · 10-11-2007, 08:27 AM

The first one? Meldor grabbed that from somewhere. It's the same momentous music they put in a lot of trailers to make the movie seem EPIC! Requiem for a Tower, I believe it's called.

Brody · 10-11-2007, 08:27 AM

I'll probably be sharing it with as many people as possible. Plus it's up on YouTube, so I might get some accidental tourists from that.

Brody · 10-11-2007, 08:29 AM

Meldor did the first one. I did the second. Not sure what program he used, but I just broke out Windows Movie Maker and edited some title cards together with video effects against a music backdrop. It's pretty easy, really!
