I think it is a great idea for artists who do not play CoH.

I think that's an awesome idea. I may just have to figure out how to do it now.

it is a cool idea, but given involvement...well, not sure how well it will take off. either way, still find it a cool idea.

It doesn't take that much involvement. The 4 vids I put up last week took less than 2 hrs to do, and that is with trying to figure out the software, recording the characters, editing a bunch of clips togeather, and loading them up to youtube.

Just got a DA message from totmoarsstudio. He completely redid a WIP for another of my characters. Turns out after seeing the video of Kim Paler in action he got inspired. Thought the original idea he had was too plain. Looks like the vids are already working out for me.

cool video, good to hear it produced something good artwise. I might try this in the future, if I can get the hang of it, I tried demoediting and barely got something I wanted but took me some effot. after I revamp the way I have my references and character bio and info and stuff. Trying to figure out a good way to lump it all into one sheet if possible.

oh I leave demoediting to the experts. I just did screen capture of actual gameplay. Things won't always go as planned, (like the spiders attacking before I was ready) but it is a quick and easy solution.

that was effective to me. it almost made me want to get the old sketchpad out and crank out a Kim Paler pic.

We all have screenshots of our characters for the artists to use. Some artists like quick bios or descriptions of character abilities to work with too. So I got the idea, why not make reference videos of your characters? Something that shows them in action so an artist can see what you can do.
I've put up some for my characters (find links on my DA page). Used Fraps for the vid capture (free version has water mark and 30 sec limit) and Windows Movie Maker (free) to edit them, and post on YouTube. These are my first vids posted there, so I'm not good at getting the best quality picture yet.
