Over30Clan MONTAGE COMPETITION!!!

Fire up your Movie Maker, Vegas or whatever video editing you use, it's montage time!!!

I talked to a couple guys and thought it might be fun for anyone interested to put together a short montage video related to the clan and after the deadline, all entries will be posted in one thread with a poll for everyone to vote on.  Videos should be voted on based on how they are edited, not necessarily the clips themselves.

Simple Rules:

120 seconds max-ish (everyone is running over)
Use clips related to the clan
(try not to use only clips of yourself)
UPLOAD THE VIDEOS AS UNLISTED AND PM ME THE LINK!

Deadline August 1st!

We'll post up all the entries August 2nd and close the poll at midnight August 9th.

Winner will get their very own Reach Around green bar!!!

Afterwards, we can take all the entries and mash them into on big ass video.

If you have clips but don't want to enter the competition, speak up so someone who is putting one together can use them!

Post in here if you are interested and I'll add you to the list:

Nuke

i dont know if i can compete with nuke spielberg over there but ill try

sheeeeeit....yours are better than mine, I just put together a bunch of crap. You Spielberg, me Tyler Perry

I'll throw my hat in the ring, not positive I'll get one done in time though.

I have never done any edits,,but Maybe ill throw something together

I'm having a hard time fitting my vision in 2 minutes lol

No problem finding the clips but I suck ass at editing, so I won't waste y'alls time. Good luck and can't wait to see what y'all come up with.

WTF Pogo? I thought you would be in for sure!

I am also adding to not put your name on your video so we can make them anonymous and we will upload them all to one channel

Alright, I'm in. We need more PS3 love in this anyways!

This sounds fun, I'm in. Without a capture card I have to do this on the cheap with Theater Mode. I don't have too many clips yet.

This being a Clan montage and the focus on editing, can I use others existing Youtube snippets cut/edited to my soundtrack??

Sure thing! I'd say as long as they are clannys

I've been putting together my own clips just to play around with making a montage. I'm down to try it out with anyone else's clips too

If I find some time, I may throw something together. It's been awhile since I've played with any editing software, so this gives me an excuse to try it again.

!!!IMPORTANT NOTICE!!!

When you upload your video, upload it as unlisted then PM me the link. I will re-upload all the entries on my channel and post them here so they will be anonymous. It also allows me to weed out any entires that are better than mine!

So they will be anonymous huh? More like checking out the competition before the deadline..  

Maybe you should give us a peek at yours before we.. umm.. show you ours  

Shit I don't have a way to capture the videos..dammit. Next time

EXACTLY ANDY! I have ways to sabotage videos before posting  

Oh, the trash talking behind the scenes have BEGUN!


I will say this, there are some awesome things in the works so this should be fun!

Tough to fit all the good stuff in 120sec, but it will do. I don't have any flash and dazzle effects of the big video editor packages, just good clips and good tunes, hopefully it will do.

This competition will definitely bring out some great works, good idea on this!

Of course you do. Change your settings in game to record, upload clips to youtube, download in MP4 from youtube, import to edit software of choice, make montage, render & upload....simple

I don't think anyone will mind if it ran over 120 seconds. I chose that amount so people didn't think they had to come up with some long dramatic montage and not want to do it.

Except for Nuke, if his is 121 seconds I'm deleting it.

You will only get 15 seconds and like it

I'm willing to bet this ain't the first time you've spoken those words..  

It is my most commonly used phrase  

For those who haven't uploaded clips with music before, you will need to ensure the music is copyright-free. Using copyrighted music will get your video pulled and flagged. Finding great music is the hardest part for me. Search YouTube and Google for non-copyright or royalty free music to find downloads you can use in your editor.
