Hey there,

first of all, merry christmas!

I just constantly hear an amazing soundtrack which makes me want to make another movie so bad. For this, I intend a movie of a special sort. Usually you see fragmovies of player's perspectives (which makes perfect sense in terms of fragmovies), this time I am about to compile a movie putting togehter clips of all casters whith streamed highlights - I want emotion, I want good frags (either top-down or freecam view doesn't matter that much) or just rare game scenes. You might get the picture there.

But for putting this together, I need you guys to help me out send your highlights, because I clearly can't possibly go through thousands of hours of your recorded castings. And if I just watch a bit, I'll miss the best ones for sure.

So, usually fragmovie editors ask the players to send in their demos, this time I ask the casters to send me some material if you want your highlights be included. Raw AVI upload preferred, but since you probably don't (and can't) store that much, compiled MP4 is also nice. Worst case is FLV, but I can work with that aswell (I guess most footage is FLV). If you can't or won't send material, also ok if you point me to a link with a timestamp which I can download on my own (e.g. this youtube video at 3m15s! or twitch video link etc).

If you are a player and not a caster you can also help by pointing me to highlights of recorded matches. Even my own, since I honestly don't know (or don't remember) where and when special stuff happened :P

Please get in touch with me on either

Cheers and thanks <3

Since I obviously didn't clearly state what this is about, a bit more explanation: You remember on frag movies players names in bottom area shown? Well, this time it will be the caster names shown (plus tourny/match name). This is not about frags, this movie shall show the excitement of the game it can spread on viewers. E.g. NS2HD and Wasabi have tons of material because they always go "crazy" about stuff happening - they constantly (try to) spread excitement. That is the scenes I am looking for, basically with apropriate footage where it takes place. A guy kills 4 aliens with a pistol and the caster sleeps? Not a good example. But if the caster goes crazy about it "OOOOOO MY GOOD" - I want it!

I am aiming for emotion, emotion spread by the casters! Of course it is important to me if the situation in game reflects the excitement, that's why I wouldn't put in a "and here comes the ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooonos" (sorry wasabi I still love ya :P). But if a hive survives with like 2% the push or a base race is won by a matter of 2 seconds difference etc, that does certainly work. If aliens get res locked by the last pistol clipped 0.5 seconds before the marine dies, if a jetpack rush fails horribly and all marines fall, if a beacon comes a millisecond too late and thus losing a won game, if 2 fades die at the same time, if an onos gets killed by the last bullet, a lerk axed, whatever, so many situations where casters can and do get wild on their microphone - all that is what I want. I want to highlight the caster's excitement.

Epic. Music. Needed.
