Volunteers for the glest trailer/movie!!!
« on: 23 June 2010, 00:23:40 »
As you know Gabbe has started the topic of the glest movie and it is roughly based on Glest rpg, however, since it is a huge project that requires lots of work I decided to post a section to gather volunteers for the project, if you can do any of the below and wish to help please post, I really appreciate it Thanks :) :)
Here are current volunteers and the work I think they're doing:
Gabbe-Producer, modelling something, supervising.
Eliminator-models and texturing, animation?.
Archmage-sounds for trees and animals.
Wyvern-modelling faces of Bob and Enrich, trees, models, storyline.
heres the stuff:
texturing
animation
modelling
concept art
storyline work
voice casting
ideas
backgrounds
effects
organization
Director/'s
Historical tactics, weapons etc
map making(general map, plus small scale battle maps to show the layout of what happens)
editing
if there is anything that I missed please post or comment and I will add it
anyone who helps will be given credit for their work :) :)

To be truthful, I'm not a big believer this will be finished. I've seen near solo projects of 6 minute long videos taking 5 years, and thats with no voices at all...

When you get to it, I'll be happy to help with video editing, voice acting, and perhaps some odd jobs, though I don't plan on doing anything in the mean time. If I can see this actually progressing, I'm game. Otherwise, I just don't want to see my hard work for nothing...

Like Omega, and John, I really want to see a good kickstart before I hop on the boat.

I'll help with animations, and probably voice effects and stuff. ;)

I have worked with video editing before, im probably going to edit the video a lot. The things we need for a "kickstart" is models, ready fro animation. Shouldn`t be too hard considering you can use as many polygons you want. use the subsurf modifier too, set the render level to 6 and your "modeling level" to 2-3. Conjouster got two types of buildings now, pluss trucks randomly traveling around.

Alright the scripts in progress but its huge, the timeline's under construction, as is animating and modelling.
Maybe the trucks could be like a train sort of powered by steam you know.

I thought wagons and I suppose trucks are kinda futuristic for the theme. Lets wait for Gabbe to post a pic. :) :)

6x is a bit much dude. 2-3 is usually plenty on all but the largest models. Besides, if you set the object to "smooth" it's even less needed. While it is true you have very little restrictions, you still can't go haywire. ie: my current computer can make models that lags up my old one to the point of near crashing. I'm assuming not all of you have massive graphics cards or powerful processors, so there's still some hard limits. Also, I dare you to try using 100k particles in a particle effect (tried that once to test the limits of my computer, made it literally *crawl*).

No trucks IMO! At the best, something similar to the dwarf cannon vehicle (name slipping my mind... bombardier or something?) might be better.

And even if your computer can, this IS a team project isn't it? I know some of the people here have weaker computers...
