Guild of Writers

this is a video I made, dedicated to the opening of the guilds. Tell me what you think

I think it's a great concept.

Unfortunately, it comes across as a bit too slow to me, after about two minutes I showed signs of boredom (not meant as negative criticism!!).
Maybe you can speed it up somehow....

In the first scene where you write in the book, I couldn't really get a sense of direction, it was a bit like "am I going somewhere or not...?" Maybe cutting that to about 3 to 8 seconds would do the trick.

Good effort still!

lol, well that was the first video I made in Movie maker, and fraps. I actually origionally Intended to show me write a whole page, but I thought that would be too long

Thats actually a really good idea, I like it! /claps

I think it would be really great promotional material if we started making videos like this to show the community. Participation optional of course, but I really like the idea.

One question....how did you get a first person video shot like that? LOL

Enlighten me please, I'm imagining a cam-corder duct taped to your head

Would you mind if I borrow your idea to make my own?

Very cool. I really like exploring the IC-side of Writing.

One little nit...you do know that you can't link to an Age until it's finished, right? No checking on it in-progress! You just Write with the Age you want in your head, then when you're done, link and hope for the best!

Nice video, though. I look forward to seeing others.

Well that's how the D'ni did it, but perhaps not how we are forced to do it

Sure! go ahead and, first of all, I filmed the video part with a digital camera, and just converted the file to a .avi file http://www.mediaconverter.org/ (so it was pretty light) and then, when I needed to use both my hands, I had my brother (known as Andy12 in MOUL) hold it for me... and if I didn't have to hold one side of my book, I could've done it w/ one hand so, ya, go right ahead and use my Idea... I was wondering why no one thought of making videos of GoW ages before
