[Contest] Cinematic "Music Video Theme"

[l-hate_you]

Im already about halfway done with mine now- sign me up!

L-hate_you (TerrorFiend on BNet)
Song: Duncan Hills Coffee Jingle by Dethklok (nobody steal it!!)


and my map size is going to be like 2mb but I just wanted to know... Im using custom models from UTM (ultimate terrain map) and theres like 20 different modelers for the doodads so the credits will be a little insane... what should I do about that

Is this even still going on? Im near finishing


P.S. I have no idea why anyone could possible make a map over 6mb even with music, you'd really have to try... since its only a minute long why dont people shave off their song in a music editing program before importing it? a minute of mp3 at good quality is like 1mb xD

 

[FhelZone]

Well, if you need to credit 20+ modelers, then give them a credit in general, like credits to the modelers of the map. Well this is still going on, I was just like trying to be an EMO xD

 

[l-hate_you]

OK I just finished xD when do we turn these in? I'll put in the credits of all the modelers that were involved in the UTM

 

[Flare]

I would like to join, and I think I have a song. But dont put me on yet, until I get about 25% done with it. Because then I will know that I will finish it. So I will get back to you guys.

 

[FhelZone]

No Problem

 

[~GaLs~]

I bet that I am pretty dumb.
I wishes to join this but I really don't know how should I start.

Any example?

 

[FhelZone]

First of all make a terrain for the background
Secondly listen to a music that has a good rythm (Normal or Slow Tempo is easier)
Imagine an animation from any unit
Use their animations to do some actions (You may even let them walk in the bar etc.)
Import the music
Trigger everything
Show it off and get some comments
Polish it
Show it again
And polish it agin for the last time

 

[FroznYoghurt]

OK i think il join

My song:

Sympathy for the Devil - The Rolling Stones

Theme:

Outland, Demonic

Starring:

Kil'Jaden as the Devil

Ive come pretty far with the terraining / prop-e-ing. Just the camera work that's gonna be a hell

A Question: Sympathy for the Devil is 6.30 minutes long :O does the video need to be that long or can it be cut off?
Related Question: Or maybe you should remix your song, any1 knows good program for this?
A Second Question: Should i post what i got so far?

 

[~GaLs~]

>>Sympathy for the Devil is 6.30 minutes long :O does the video need to be that long or can it be cut off?

>>any1 knows good program for this?

Though I have not tried it out yet, you might make use of it.
Let me verify your music for a while.

To - FroznYoghurt I won't allow this song, sorry it has a very bad lyrics.

Gals, I think it's best to plan a story and then listen to the song, and then write down which parts of the story go with which parts of the song.

Example:
Intro: Camera moves around city, shows civilians and children playing happily.

Verse: Naga come and pwn the city. everyone dies

Chorus: Sylvanus finds out and runs to town

Verse: Vashj and Sylv fight, lots effects

---
This is what i remember from my cinematic. The lyrics had "Don't wait for me, I'll be there in the end", and that went well with the Sylvanus running bit

I'll have a go at it. My music will be Soldiers of the Wasteland by Dragonforce. (yes, the 9 minute song. But I will probably shorten it.)
This is arguably the most epic song I have ever heard

Spoiler

Burning fires burning lives on the long distant roads
Through the lost mountains endless so far away from home

Crossing battles savage seas towards the mountains high
Forest plains of wilderness we're striking out tonight
On towards our destiny we travel far and wide
Journey through the darkness as your hearts refuse to die

In the flames of hell we fire at will the fires of doom has come
With the forces of the blackest knights there're staring at the sun
Far across the distant plains of ice we're searching for the sword
When the time has come for battle now we follow with the horde

We will ride with fire burning hot towards the night sky
In the land of long ago forever in our souls
Fly on wings of shining steel are burning so bright
In ancient lands of warriors we're riding on again

Burning fires burning lives on the long distant roads
Through the lost mountains endless so far away from home
warrior soldiers forever we fought long ago
We're all lost in the darkness so far away from home

Fallen soldiers taste the steel of death the daylight dawning
Sun will shine upon the lives of burning hearts of ice
As you break through the boundaries of life this feeling of despair
And they die in their sleep for the world that will not care
You feel lost in this labyrinth of pain this sickening dismay
There's a voice inside that's calling another wasted day

Can't you see the history the suffocating madness
In the land of fallen souls there's nowhere left no place to go
I have travelled far and wide across this wasteland
Still searching for the answers for the right to understand

Burning fires burning lives on the long distant roads
Through the lost mountains endless so far away from home
Warrior soldiers forever we fought long ago
We're all lost in the darkness so far away from home

Riding through starlight and smashing the boundaries as hellfire falls from the sky
A shadow of pain will arise from the ashes of those fallen ones who have died
Our only master with fire and fury of hell will see his bidding done
Blasting from high as the battle unfolds to the gates of the city we come

We will ride with fire burning hot towards the night sky
In the land of long ago forever in our souls
Fly on wings of shining steel are burning so bright
In ancient lands of warriors we're riding on again

Burning fires burning lives on the long distant roads
Through the lost mountains endless so far away from home
Warrior soldiers forever we fought long ago
We're all lost in the darkness so far away from home

And since I cannot credit everyone who put models into the Ultimate Terraining Map, or only the ones I use (I will be using 100+), I will simply credit the UTM.

To - FroznYoghurt I won't allow this song, sorry it has a very bad lyrics.

You can't be serious?
It just has a somewhat mild blasphemous content, but we can't all be good christians can we?
Other than that it does not have one single swearword or sexual allusion.

And as Mick Jagger sings it, you can hardly make out the lyrics anyways (Don't post the lyrics, problem solved).
This is one of the most renowned rock'n'roll songs of all time, it can't be that bad?

Please don't take it away, i have spent quite some time on my map and it will be hard to find another song that fits .

 

[Jindo]

I knew someone was annoyed with it XD

...If you knew then why did you continue?

I'm editing your posts to get rid of it.

 

[FhelZone]

Hehehe xD Thanks Jindo

@GhostWind
Nice music, fits for games
I found this other version of video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvrHklGOLEM&feature=related) This video rocks!
Would you like to choose the one above?

@FroznYoghurt
Sorry but rules are rules, it would be unfair to others. And besides I hate musics with too much non-sense lyrics. Find something like uhm, dont matter? xD
