Community Video Series Idea...

[Sword of Achilles]

So basically, after some talking and yapping about on this thread (http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...-Ancient-World), I am motivated to try and make a community-made video series detailing ancient battles using Rome II. But before anything can be done, I want and need to know how many would watch and if anyone would help me.
What We need ("x" means I can do it, "/" means I could do it but not amazingly)

-Script [ x ]

-Footage [ / ]

-Editing [ / ]

-Graphics [ / ]

-Voice Acting [ x but I don't feel my voice is deep or sexy enough]

-Spread the word (i.e. creating threads, having YouTube channel, making steam groups) [ x ]
*My YouTube is not very popular but I can do the other two no problem (approx. 3,000 views)

-Interviews with teachers and historians [ / ]
*This is real life footage of any teachers or historians you know sharing information on the battle, I have ONE resource. These videos will need to be emailed me or whoever is putting video together.

-Animations [ no clue ]
*This is stuff like troop movement on maps, fancy titles, etc.

So there's the situation. I really need to see if the community will support me on this and if I could get a team together pre-realease. If your interested in helping, just post here with your steam or other form of contact
and we'll see what we can do.
Thanks!
With many Hugs and Kisses,
Sword of Achilles

I don't think I can offer assistance but I would definately watch. For the animations of troop movements you could use simple diagrams with boxes similar to: (but maybe with less happening at once or areas greyed out)

Great initiative but I think this thread will be moved.
Maybe not if if it can be filed under Rome 2 because of the engine?

I would assume and also since it is just a general discussion of doing something that involves the game and its usage

And in other news i guess, I have written a rough draft of a script. Now this seems small and maybe rushed but the script gets the point across and we need to start somewhere

There are already two groups creating a series like this, one is being spearheaded by me and the other was initiated by Sun Jetzu and is being worked on by some other forum members

If that group needs help, I'll give them what I can offer. If not, I'd rather try to do something like this on my own

[High Fist]

Just let the man create!

I'd also like to help but I don't know if I'd be much use. I could narrate? But anyone can narrate I suppose.

[b3an15HLy]

Haha yea by all means go ahead I wasn't trying to discourage you, I was just letting you know that the idea is already being worked on, even if there are three different series I'm pretty sure each will have a unique flavour to it

While I would love to do this and I will, i am also going to try and work with Jetzu as a script writer. So this is still active and is going to be a side project for me but people are welcome to help. In fact, the more people that volunteer the less this will be a side project. And High Fist, you are welcome but I'd need to hear your voice obviously beforehand
