Collecting Video clips for NERD RAGE tournament video

Hey all,

I'm Octorox. Since I don't frequent these forums that often, you may not know that I'm one of the PMBR's video editors. I've edited several videos for Project M including the 2.0 Trailer, 2.5 Trailer, as well as several character spotlights and mechanics videos.

We in the PMBR are really excited for the upcoming NERD RAGE tournament in Cincinnati, OH, which is slated to be the first big tournament exclusively for Project M.

My plan is to create a trailer hyping up the event, similar to the trailer I created for Project M at Melee FC10R Legacy, but to do this, I need gameplay clips from the community.

Basically I'm looking for HIGH QUALITY Demo 2.5 clips that showcase great gameplay/combos etc.

What I'm looking for:

HIGH QUALITY video, No interlacing lines, obvious compression artifacts or general fuzziness

Demo 2.5/b clips ONLY

Solid, quick combos. I can't do anything with a whole match if there are no standout clips, either isolate the clip on its own or give me the timecode of the bit you want me to use.

If the match took place at a major tournament, please tell me which one and where. If not, still tell me the general area/scene where the match took place.

Thanks guys! This is going to be an exciting tournament and needs an exciting video to hype it up. I hope a lot of you get to have your clips used in the video!

Lol just now saw this, and I am glad to see it.

Thank you, sir. If it comes together I'm of course pleased to pay your entry for you, as I was saying in the tournament thread.

I'll see what I can do about getting some decent recordings together, too...

This entire video is a combo video by Calabrel. It shows some pretty sweet Lucas play, and the majority of the clips are high quality. I know you probably don't want to use other people's videos, but this one has not received very much recognition and it is quite good imo.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXMOPAmFNHc (0:45 to 0:55) This is Armada vs Mango at Beast 3 April 6, 2013.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kna-fp4AND0&list=PLNBAACPSAAMXtwDu8C7ZOEj905bxM6gTo (0:57 to 1:03) Another Armada vs Mango
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJHqOC7tMOw (1:10 to 1:21) This is Strong Bad vs Kage @ Apex 1/11/13
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8eCknuHsqtg (1:21 to 1:27) and (1:51 to 2:03 this one is the best I could find) This is Chillindude829 vs Cyrain @ Salvation 2 1/26/13
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhgeaQZSB_w&list=PLNBAACPSAAMXxpdpqJbOsJ9LOZqkP-XmW (1:26 to 1:33) This is Metriod vs HIM @ Smash@ Gaming Generations May 25

Just stuff I found browsing through youtube. The second Chillindude combo, the one with the taunt in the middle, is by far and away the best one.

I recorded an hour or so of friendlies last night and picked out some highlights. Nothing special but maybe some might work as filler.

A lot of the quality problems you're seeing are due to compression so I could get it onto youtube quickly. I'm not sure how you'd ideally want it sent to you. There are some interlacing lines in the originals though, which I think are generally a result of my POS dazzle. I can't afford it right now but at some point in the future I hope to build a home theater pc with a legit capture card. Hopefully by the time NERD RAGE rolls around I'll have it and can use it for streams, additional hype videos, etc...

Thanks for the help, though. If there's anything I else can do, let me know. :)

I have to know; what was that first song in that video?

The P:M forum is in serious need of a videos only section. I've seen this kind of thread die many times, and lots of awesome material kept in the dark from the masses. A videos section would not only make this things easier, but it also would contribute to the project as a whole

I just recorded like 5 more hours of friendlies with OS and his bro. Hopefully something useful is in there lol.

I'm going to go ahead and start putting a video together myself since I'm not sure what's up here. If you want to combine our efforts I'm all about it. Just send me a PM or somesuch.

Ok so I had a shift in ideas. Since Octorox is still working on an actual hype combo video I think I'll do something else. Something more appropriate to the idea of NERD RAGE.

Guys. Link me to really stupid deaths. Not just SD's... I can find plenty of those in my own vids, lol. But like... anything really, really stupid. Like this:

But in project M.

I'll be digging around but let me now if you guys find any. I think this will be fun. :p

So, I'm still going to do this. Sorry I've been wrapped up with work and such lately. I realize were fast approaching the tournament so I'll try to get this out by the end of the week.

Btw, the current plan is something a little more than a traditional combo vid. I think everyone will be pleasantly surprised by it.
