I've got a rather humorous moment where, on Standoff, I go to throw a plasma at some guys by camo when Coco and Valor, propelled by an enemy grenade, go flying across my screen and catch my grenade mid-flight.

If you make a friendly fire montage, it would just be 99% kills on me. And them maybe that one you just described.

Syracuse's post is an excellent example of what I'm looking for, just for future reference. Thanks man, downloading and capturing now.

I made clips of everything I wanted. So whatever I have in my Fileshare is a whole clip that you can capture.

So far all I have for you are my exterminations and my Interception clips...the other stuff in there you don't have to worry about. If I don't have anything else in the next few days, I'll give you the titles of the clips I want in. Thanks

I nominate the "Barrel Roll" me and Coco did.

A few ideas I've been having - what do you guys think?

As far as music for peoples' highlights, here's one song possibility:
Killer of the Mind (Rez version) - Adam Freeland

After all of our highlights, the conclusion begins. Sequences with epic Victory Laps appear in succession with a slow fade to and from black with each as the guitar and the horn of "The 3:10 to Yuma" by Marco Beltrami swell to the montage's conclusion.

Mind Killer kicks in nicely at 5:20.
0:21...sounds like Covanent sound fx from Halo. T&R?

Not like I'm going to be part of this nor does my opinion really matter, but I think Killer of the Mind is a really good song choice. I was thinking that you could use the Windows Media Player visualizations as a backdrop for the Intro and also as transitions between different players' footage. The visualizations kind of relate to the music/Rez so if it's possible to capture different visualizations I think it might be pretty effective.

In light of my HD capture card FINALLY FUCKING WORKING, I pose to you fine gentlemen a question:

Would you like your montage in the variety of astronomically huge but very beautimus, or not-so-large, but very much SD?

Wow, okay. I fixed all of the problems. Perfect, lossless capture at small(ish) file-sizes. Above is a clip of Cuse doing his thing, just as it looks on an HDTV. Holy crap I did not expect it to look that good. Capturing the rest now.

Holy crap, that's AWESOME.

I like.

Well if its gonna look goofy on my computer screen then momma don't like. But if I can get a full computer screen-size picture then momma like.

[NJ Shlice]

[Drew]

It looks goofy on your computer? Care to explain?

Well you said the videos were "astronomically huge." If its gonna have to be resized to watch on the computer, downgraded, and looking all goofy then I don't think it's a good option.

Cuse's video looked fine. And by fine I mean delicious.

[Drew]

Ah, no. I was over-exaggerating the file sizes, not the actual height and width itself. All of the HD videos I will release will be 720p (1280x720) at 30/60FPS.

[DualX]

If you plan on making this thing before I get my 360 back, please let me know so that I can pick out the ones I already have in my fileshare.

[Drew]

I won't be the one editing it, so until somebody picks up that aspect, you won't have to worry about what's on your fileshare right now. Not only that, but it's going to take a while to capture and encode everything. With the stuff that's on the plate now, it'll probably be next weekend that I get wrapped up with getting footage, and that's assuming that nothing else falls into my lap.

Alright, thanks. I've finished capturing Cuse's clips, and I'm working on getting them encoded. That High Ground one is really awesome. I'll be doing NJ's next, and then Kinetic's. If you want your film recorded, please let me know if it's all the films in your fileshare or just a couple (be sure to name them). Otherwise, I won't know what to capture. Thanks.

I have a couple suggestions for music for any part of the montage: Believe Me or There They Go by Fort Minor, or Barry Bonds by Kanye West. Overused, but still decent choices: Cells by The Servant, and Myotis or Molossus from the Batman Begins Soundtrack. There's also the Saw Theme (Truency Remix) and Stronger (A-Trak Remix).
