Hey, I know not many of you know me and definitely haven't heard about my idea yet. Here's the deal, for the past year, maybe even two, I've been wanting to put out a TF2 series. I've got some friends who I could work with in real life and get things done, but it seems I'm the only one who has the drive to actually do it, because I'm always the one who has to constantly bring it up. They say they'd do it, but so far it hasn't really been ringing true.
Okay, so here's what I'm suggesting: a group of people in the clan working together to produce the series. I mean think about it. It's a great clan no doubt, but what better way to attract even more potential members than with a web series? I did brainstorm with my friends a little bit, but came up with little more than the idea of doing a few PSAs (Public Service Announcements) first in order to get the hang of machinima. What I've got so far is splitting the teams into 4 classes per team and a spy who works with both. This is of course, subject to change.
I'm not gonna lie and tell you I have a plot in mind, because I don't. I was really hoping that I could gather some people willing to work on this either in Steam chat or Ventrilo and brainstorm plot ideas. We could pick and choose and meld them. Obviously, anyone interested in doing some voice acting would be great. And I'd love it if one of our members with a particularly highly spec'd computer could be our cameraman and try to record at the highest quality possible. Someone I've talked to who has worked on machinima before (he's worked with Lit Fuse Films, the same people who produced the hit Ignis Solus) suggests using the in-game demos and then editing them using Adobe Premier.
So to re-cap, here's what I'm hoping for:
- 8 voice actors (Only need 8 because I'm planning to do one)
- At least 1 cameraman with a high spec'd machine
- At least 1 member who is skilled in video editing
- Any number of members who'd be willing to contribute to plot ideas
This was originally thought up because I wanted to do it with Counter-Strike, however, the idea was scrapped. Several years later and with the introduction of TF2 I dug up the idea from the past. Now that I'm a member of eGO, I figured it'd be better if it was used as a clan promotional tool. Let me know what you guys think.
