My CoH Videos for Posterity


Eleven

 

Posted

Finally found the time to start recording videos for Youtube of all my CoH characters for keepsake.

Playlist is as follows

It will be updated as new videos are uploaded. At the time of this post there are only 4 videos but I'll be recording and uploading just as many every night this week at least and possibly more if there is inspiration to do so.

They aren't mind blowingly awesome trailer like videos of Samuraiko quality or even the expertise of JayboH's videos. It's just playing through a mission or two with my toons, offering random commentary like is likely to go off track and me finding that I have ran out of my allotted 15mins! :-P

The aim though is simply just so that I have videos to look back on of why I enjoyed playing this game for 6 years.

Oh hey thanks for the compliment!

Save whatever you can - these are your characters, your stories and memories. I'm bookmarking this so I can watch it as time allows.

No problem marra. Actually if it wasn't for your videos/channel I would not know about Bandicam which is what I am using for the recordings. Had planned to get it earlier for CoH themed videos I had story boarded but have it now just so I have this footage at least. Before that I had no idea how I was going to record any footage because I wanted nothing to do with FRAPS! :-p

Update on the series, as I am typing this out the last set of my Hero toons (Or at least my Hero toons from The Dunelm Group SG) is being uploaded. Tomorrow will be the start of my villain characters.

I actually use FRAPS. I used to use WeGame as I used to work for them before the site was sold.

That last video I did - the 'Whatcha Playin'" video, had 14 audio clips, which were further broken down to match up footage, about half a dozen screenshots, learned how to zoom into footage so I could get rid of the UI without using demorecord, had fade transitions, each clip had to have its audio levels altered, noise reduction used, some had pitch effects or speed effects, titles were generated, etc. Took me about 2-3 hours or so to edit. All footage was of my own gameplay.

One of the Sony devs tweeted a link to it, so that was cool.

The last set of character videos are uploading now as I type.

Not sure if I am going to make video play through of an arc or two with specific toons or not. Might do if the demand is there to get a few done or if I am in the right mind-set. I'll be honest as I have got close to the end of recording my toons, it is starting to get to me. :-(

If I don't make any arc play throughs, I am at least guaranteeing that I am going to record the final moments of the game on the Union server on Saturday morning. It will be with that video that I give me farewell message rather than here.
