hey everyone,

So, in my film class, we have a full year documentary assaignment that needs to be around twenty minutes long.. No surprise, im doing mine on smash.
But heres the deal.
i dont want to do the documentary on Supersmashbros. as a whole. i mean, ill have a lot of information about alot of the game, but im not going into things like the different stages of career mode, or the best way to beat your avarage fox. I may want to primarliy focus on the actualy players themselves; why they love smash, blah blah blah. i want to kind of show that everyone who loves a video game isnt allways your classic nerd with glasses (no offense to kids who wear glasses.. im simply trying to make a point). I want to show that a bunch of different kind of kids with different hobbies and different lifestyles can all be connected through a common game.
But i dont totally love this idea.
If anyone has any other cool ideas that i can focus on, or any suggestions/concerns let me know.

Also, im going to Apex. this will allow me to really show what smash players are like outside of their appearence on the internet. i also plan on interviewing a variety of kids from a variety of places to get a more broad perspective of the game.

..i dont know if that gives you any more thoughts or..

Most importantly, if you have any ideas please post below. I could really use them.

Also, if you want to feature in it, maybee like playing me in an online match and ill show parts of it, of if your going to apex or want an interview or something let me know! theres a bunch of options.
cool.

Thanks alot everyone.

Most of the smashers here aren't really kids, just FYI. Average age is probably 19 or so. Wouldn't want you to go into this with the wrong impressions.

And I'm not important, but I'm very pretty, so I'd be down for apex talkiness and online matches (of course).

Cool Idea. Yea I think focusing on the actual players is more important/cool.

I'm also bringing a cam to Apex (I'm documenting my life lol, pretty bad at it though).

and as for interviewing at Apex- of course. TANK interview the sequel?

It's all about ME!!!

lol
that was funny.

@KeroKeroppi
I don't think that a smash documentary would be a good idea for a school project.
That'd be more likely to present it to the Smash community here at SWF.

I can't really tell if aa was serious about that, but that's what I kind of think too.

cool idea. I don't see why it would be bad for a school project. You're going to be into it which is prolly gonna make the end result better. A suggestion though, matches from Apex are going to be much higher quality than any online matches you play, maybe you should just use those.

and thanks for the advice everyone.

clubba, i plan on using the matches from, but i think i better use an online matchh for the kaillera (spelling?) part.i probably wont even show a full match, maybe just those beggining parts when you turn ther 64 on.

Even if your main purpose is to film the players and interview them, it would be cool to show maybe some of the last bracket matches from apex, and the (hopefully)crowd around it.

atriphy, update your profile and put where you live. if you live near the east coast you and your smash friends should go, the more the marrier.
plus i need some more people to interview.

the real question is why are you still at school, time to rebel against the system.

well, school is pretty easy though, i too had a good time there (finished most my studies my softmore year, so had like 10 hours of school a week my senior year).

sometimes it could get boring though.

School is a total ****ing drag, lol, IDK what you guys are talking about.

SK likes it because he just jerks off all day, foreigners like it because no decent colleges in country->no need to work->jerk off all day

High school is prii hard if you're not a libertarian ubermensch

SK, you just suck at school, of course you have a good time.

And yeah, it's not that I haven't had a good time the last 4 years, it's just that school/schoolwork itself is like pounding nails into my **** for 12 hours a day.

Actually I'm getting straight A's with four AP classes so far this year and it's still fun.

Gotta admit I did suck freshman and sophmore year though.

High School is REALLY easy...I would kill to be back in high school.

College is usually a lot harder, depending on your major...and it's waaay easier to get caught up in errr, extra activities. Sometimes I'm amazed more people don't flat out die during College.
