edited November 2005 in PAX Archive
If anyone has any digital video of PAX they would like to include of a homemade PAX DVD I'm making, please send it to me at dontcallmeallison@hotmail.com I would like to include more perspectives than just the footage I took. I have a lot of the Omegathon, and me and my friends hanging out at PAX, but I wanna see more of you and your friends gaming at the con! coolp from Talkxbox.com has asked me to host it on his site, but if you would like me to send you a free DVD, you email me and we can work it out. (It will be sweet, with menus and scene selcetion, etc.) Thanks!

when you punish a person for dreaming his dream, don't expect him to thank or forgive you. the best ever death metal band out of denton will in time both outpace and outlive you. hail satan!

    It'll have to be rated R for language unless you cut out your Diceland game.

    Edit: Oh shits, I just saw that you've actually posted on the boards a few times. You should come over to SE++.

    Speaking of that... Since I was playing during the first 3 Omegathon rounds, my brother had the videocamera... and since it looked like I was losing hardcore at Diceland he didn't catch that fabulous back-from-the-brink ending, or my, uh, gloating. :) Soooo, that's another reason I'd like people to send me some videos!!

    I just finished editing the movie a few mins ago. It may still need some work though...
    It is 2 hours 6 minutes long!
    I tried to cut it down as much as possible... (I had 3 hours of footage from the weekend)

    As of now it includes:
    Shots of all the freeplay rooms (I think a Counterstrike tourney was happening in the PC freeplay room when I was there)
    Scenes from all 6 rounds of the Omegathon, and interviews with some of the Omeganauts and OmegaTechs.
    Shots of the tabletop room, and the Sac Noir tourney.
    Some of the concerts from Friday and Saturday night.
    All I got of the Exhibition room was Pirates of the Burning Sea, and the Sweet Kitty table.
    Scenes from both PA Q&A Panels with Gabe & Tycho inclding both times Tycho sang his song, and everyone in the audience simultaneously cracking their knuckles and dropping their Bawlz.

    OK... I was able to cut it down a little more
    2 hours and 4 minutes!
    Haha.

    Still tweaking it here and there...

    And I'm going to add the Super Mega Rad Happy Fun Penny Arcade Expo 2005 Pictures Ultimate Slideshow, including all the pictures I stole from the PAX pictures thread!

    Alright... it really is finished now... but it is quite HUGE so I'm having trouble posting it... when I figure out solution (like splitting it into smaller clips) it will be up. Or you can have me send you a DVD if you email me.

    Is that like WinZip? Where can I get it?

    The other trouble I'm having is that I made it with WinDVD Maker so I could add menus etc, which is the other reason it's such a hefty file (almost 2.5GB!) And this program won't let you save it as like a .avi or .wma file... it's just a wizard that makes you burn it to a DVD or send it to your HD for later burning. I compressed what I had down to a 5.44MB folder and sent it off to coolp. But I think it still saved it as a WinDVD project file, not a playable movie file. :( So I'm still working out another solution.

    However, the DVD's I burned work and play just fine in your DVD player, PS2, or on your PC with WinDVD player! But hopefully I can get this up on TalkXbox.com so I don't have to send out 1000 DVDs.

    I evacuated from Houston due to Rita. I can't work on the DVD right now. I probably won't come home for another several days.

    I may have to go back to re-editing the entire thing because it's too large to post. But if you want the super epic movie on DVD, email me and I'll see what I can work out for you.

    I don't think there is anything copyrighted on there... I didn't tape any of the movies. Just some of the concerts. And people playing games, and drinking bawlz.

    Thanks for the tip though, the site looks awesome, I'm gonna try it out.

    The real question is... Once these are started to be distrubuted, do you mind some of us torrenting this so we don't have to waste time and effort to have them burned by some one else?

    I would in fact love it. I'm not trying to do this for money. I would not flatter myself to think I have the film skills to profit off my home movies. I just think there are other people who'd like to see it, and I'm having trouble getting it out there. I need all the help I can get. coolp said he'd host it, but he wants me to chop it up into little bits!

    The movie is all made already, with menus and everything. I think it looks pretty good. Now there's the problem of getting it to you! I'm not totally hip to all this posting and hosting biz, so maybe I can send some of you guys a few copies, and ya'll can bootleg it, archive it, torrent it, upload it, download it, burn it, pass em out to your friends all you want all over the place. I do ask that you give me credit for making it though. That's BeatByAGrrl with two rr's. :) If you would like to help me with this please PM me or email me.
