Iluvatar's Helm Recruitment Video

[ithaca]

While the above video (lol I always play elves) and my adventure with Club Iluvatar aren't the best representation of what I can do, making videos of my time in MMOs is a real passion of mine and I really enjoy the process of getting footage together from memorable places, events and friends. That being said, it has been discussed previously about making a kinship recruitment/omg look how fun we are video and I really need your help!

Unfortunately, as I play a healer, sometimes people don't appreciate me being all ~cinematic~ while instancing with them because I turn my UI off and sometimes people don't shout at me to turn my UI on and people die. However! If you're ever interested in having a run recorded while I'm along and can be patient while I work things out (sometimes I will ask you to run somewhere or emote at me or similar things), then please let me know! I'm up for any suggestions of cool locations/other stuff to film and hopefully soon I can organize a whole lot of you to be on at once so I can get some nice group shots!

Other examples of my PVE video taping:





(The goal of this fight was to stand away from everyone and not in front of the boss. I was doing both. I wish I could have recorded vent so you could hear the epic amounts of bullshit I was spouting.)

Look forward to hearing your ideas!

SKILLS
You have them.

I am more than willing to be stopped mid-raid for the sake of art.

P.S. zomg the last one. I very nearly pissed myself.

Here are a few things I had in mind, and once production is about to begin we can iron out details with all of our combined ideas.

Ettenmoors: We as a kin have a strong pressence in the Ettenmoors through a handful of players, and I think that should have some focus in a recruitment vid. Some things like Killing Blows, Keep Takes, open battle with a mass number of players (total chaos!).

RP: Although we don't always do it, as Nick said in another thread, this is still a Role Playing kin. We could have some short clips of a few of us doing some obvious RP activities such as, I dunno, having a brew and a smoke at the prancing pony, emoting gestures towards eachother, etc. It's hard to illustrate RP without all the text, but some clear motions should do the trick.

Crafting: Many of us are master crafters, and it should be made known that we craft also for the good of the Kinship. A few clips of some members tanning hides, or making pies etc. (especially if we were to crit a few things!) could be included.

Raiding: Battling big bad nasty things is always exciting, and will likely be a focus in the video as well. Perhaps revisiting the Balrog?

Along with that some other things could be included, such as some scenes from our Kinhouse, some nice screenies people have taken, anything else applicable to out Kin.

It's important to note that while shooting for this video, our own survival and victory (PvMP, Raids, etc) will not be the main objective, so if you intend to join in on some recording, just keep that in mind when we're "not doing so well against the Balrog".

Let's do it! I've made a few videos myself but deleted them off my youtube account when I quit playing that game.
