Excellent work, Michelle. I may end up converting back to a gold name for a month now just to see some of that stuff.

I was REALLY impressed with the music. If that guy sells CD's then you probably sold one for him once I get the time to look at his website.

What an awesome trailer--watching it was a great way to prepare for tomorrow's release!!

Trolls on youtube? *Gasp* Say it isn't so!

But enough about me..

I kid, I kid.

Great job, D_R... I have to admit to being surprised to actually see City Of Oz on your planning list... I thought that was just an inside joke between you and I... oh... and a quick question about your planning list (since I have this little list-obsession-thing)... The PUG video... is that one based off that PUG play I wrote a while back? Or is it a script from a different source?

Once again, fantastic job!
I'd have to look at the list to remember...

I don't know if Thomas has a CD of his music or not (I know this track "In Ruins" was composed specifically for this trailer, hehe), but feel free to drop him an email and ask! He's also got a profile on AudioJungle.net with some of his other music, which I will probably be licensing for use in future!

Regarding the "face reality and move on" comment: I must have missed the part where you said Paragon owed you a job and you were going to hold your breath until you got it. (My youtube account wouldn't let me reply there, unfortunately.)

'I don't like the look of it at all,' said the King: 'however, it may kiss my hand if it likes.'
'I'd rather not,' the Cat remarked.
'Don't be impertinent,' said the King, 'and don't look at me like that!' He got behind Alice as he spoke.
'A cat may look at a king,' said Alice.

*laughs*

I know that won't work. I've also tried getting down on my knees and begging at the first HeroCon (SexyJay bet me I wouldn't do it when he introduced me to Brian Clayton, and I did), bribing with brownies (Melissa Bianco accused me of sabotaging her diet), sending Christmas cards (BAB asked why his didn't have money in it), actually *gasp* APPLYING, etc.

I figure this is like trying to get the Babel fish in HHGTTG. Eventually I will hit on the right combination of things to do.

Well done as usual Michelle.
I realize that, I was posting to let her know that you guys had posted it up on your social media things.

Very well done, loved it - a lot of hard work must have gone into it

Fantastic. I've been too busy to spend much time on the beta server this round, but now I'm really looking forward to this issue. And it's almost here!

I just wanna say that COH has the best damn community out there. First you help me film this, showing up at all hours to stand in as body doubles, show off powers, run missions, what have you. And then, since this thing went live on Sunday morning, it's now shown up on blogs, forums, Twitter, etc... and that was BEFORE the rednames got hold of it!

You guys are just amazing - it means a great deal to me that you look forward to my videos as much as you do, and that you enjoy them!

*hugs*

(And I finally looked at the Facebook page! When it didn't keep kicking me off because I wouldn't log in, it seems a lot of folks liked it there, too! WOOT!)

This is fabulous! It's also terrible, because it makes me want to play I22 desperately and servers are still down!

EDIT: And the OFFICIAL video is also out now! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akUj6caicWM I like it! Good music, good pacing, some very nice shots, though I think the whole "now that he's gone" thing would be better for I23...
Your vid is better!

We love ya, Michelle! Thanks again for another kick-*ss trailer. I too hold out hope Paragon Studios will hire you as well. For now, your status as "Most Talented Cheerleader" seems assured.

Of the two trailers, DR's was more informative, headlining each of the major additions the issue brought to the game. And it's well done as all of DR's videos are.

However the "official" trailer is better at marketing the game to new comers. The whole "it's up to me" mantra is a great hook. And the voice acting was quite good.

I would say that both D_R's and the official trailer were both excellent!

D_R, just wanted to give you kudos for an awesome video. Personally I like yours better... especially the music. I'd love an mp3 from the musician, Thomas Vo. Good choice.

Next time I see you're calling for people, I'll try and make it

While the official one was good, it did not impact me the same way.

Great job.
