28 Days later!
The teaser was already nice to watch, but Domino really put some effort into creating a compilation of really fun, user-submitted frags and runs matched to a very cool soundtrack.
We don’t see that many ctf movies these days. And not that it isn’t cool to watch, but sometimes it feels like duel frag highlights demand all the attention. And it saddens me :'(
Movies are fun, teasers and trailers for them make us drool at the wonderful moves and frags players out there make. Cool effects, nice music… key ingredients for a good movie. And of course, a lot of work by the maker of it. Domino is therefore proud to present his ongoing work based on community sent-in demos and has released a trailer for his frag movie called Showdown!
Hop in to watch the trailer below or in larger view on our Specials page!
Once upon a time during the Quake 3 era, a fraction of the players started tricking, enjoying themselves just with doing crazy short and long jumps, combined with impressive movement skill to do very cool tricks. A whole scene even started, called DeFRaG, where the focus does not lie on fragging but on moving only and this is no different for Quake Live.
Didn’t I say I like frag movies? Yes I did! And a shiny one is seeing the light of day!
From zEvon’s hand we will find ourselves watching a very nice Quake Live movie called Europe 2010.
The trailer specifications don’t lie: capped at 300 fps, rendered at 60 fps for a whopping 30 hours using tools like Sony vegas 9 64Bit, Adobe After effects cs4, Vdub 64bit, Trapcode Plugins, Protools 8, … that promises some good stuff for the final movie.
But all this cannot happen without your help! We need you to send demos to euroquakelive@hotmail.com, just like with our own series of Moment of Fame, but with some differences:
I love fragmovies! Either they are packed with nice sequences of several players hitting incredible frags, or just a compilation with very fun moments where a flag gets returned and a cap is just made right on the buzzer.
All that with nice transitions, some good music in the background and you’re good for some “ooh!” and “haha i lol’d” or “wtf? wish I could do that” for the upcoming minutes.
Not too long ago, ZeroQL made Unagi (watch in our specials section), a very nice fragmovie consisting of Duel frags, enriched with some things from the other gametypes and some comedy about what unagi really is.
ZeroQL is now collecting frags for Unagi 2: The Return of The Power, a frag-compilation movie with user submitted demos, sort of like our own Moment of Fame series.
Many things happened that delayed this project till today so apologies for that, but it’s here!
We’ve had some very good responses to our first Moment of Fame movie by Snelvovve, who sadly had little to no time at all to continue working on the 2nd episode.
Luckily, I did have some free time left and was interested in picking up the project! So finally after idling forever, Holysh1t “Moment of Fame” 2 is here!
