Video Contest and I Can't Enter T_T

Darn it, I make all these videos and the ONE time they hold a contest I cannot compete... Going to be on vacation this Saturday...AND my sword client doesn't even support the resolutions they are asking for... I only have...

1024 x 768
1152 x 864
1440 x 900

And none of those are the resolution they want.

The funny thing is.... I was working on a new "Action" trailer.... well that's karma for you.... G1 Owned BlackWhisper...thanks G1.


From the forum:

After the lackluster response from our last video (including a few thumbs down on our YouTube page tongue.gif). We've decided to turn the tables and get YOU to help us with our new trailer for the upcoming Electronic Entertainment Expo in sunny Southern California next month! The theme of the new trailer is: "Explore, Unite, Conquer!"

We need videos from YOU ALL ASAP! We need footage of basically EVERYTHING in the game (READ THE DETAILS BELOW VERY CAREFULLY!) If we select your video to use in our trailer you will win an EXCLUSIVE E3 ONLY package that includes (Prizes will be injected to your account after the launch of Sword 2):
  • Baphomet's Horn (365 Days)
  • A set of Constellation Symbols (1 of each)
  • A set of Ancient Runes (10 of each)
  • Your choice of one of the following:
  • Your choice of one of the following:

    • Battlesmith Idge Character Card
    • Kurt Lyndon Character Card
    • Eduardo Character Card
    • Ginger Tiger Pet
    • White Tiger Pet
    • Black Tiger Pet
So what do we need from you all? Beginning today we will start accepting submissions of videos from players.
  • FAILURE TO FOLLOW ANY OF THESE RULES WILL DISQUALIFY YOUR VIDEO! IF YOUR VIDEO IS SELECTED WE WILL CONTACT YOU FOR THE RAW FILES! SO HANG ON TO THEM!
  • Videos must be action packed and unedited. We cannot use videos that contain non-game related effects or overlay texts.
  • Videos should be in one of the following file formats: AVI, WMV or Quicktime
  • Videos must be made with the highest visual settings possible with little to no frame rate lag. So crank those settings all the way up!
  • Video resolutions MUST be either 1280x720 or 1600x900. No other resolutions will be accepted.
  • Videos must be recorded with 30 FPS or more.
  • Videos must contain NO BACKGROUND MUSIC BUT MUST CONTAIN SOUND! This line may be confusing so we'll explain. We will be adding music to the full trailer, so it is important your submissions have no music. HOWEVER, we DO need any sound effects from casting spells and combat. So turn your background music off and your sound effects up!
  • Videos must contain NO UI so make sure you remember your keyboard shortcuts!
  • Videos can be of any length but MUST PERTAIN TO THE TOPIC: Explore, Unite, Conquer. Examples of good footage would be:
    • Expansive shots of landscapes for "Explore".
    • Follow shots of missions and dungeons for "Explore".
    • Group shots of squads in raid settings (we are especially looking for Sehkmet, Argus, Secret Temple, Arsene and Novia) for "Unite".
    • FACTION WARS for "Conquer". We really need a LOT of shots of Faction Wars.
  • All videos should be uploaded to YouTube as a RESPONSE to this video!
    • To upload a video response login to YouTube and head over to the video here.
    • Click in the comment field below and note the link to the right of the field that says: "Attach a Video"
    • Click "Attach a Video" and follow the instructions.
  • All entries must be posted NO LATER THAN JUNE 3RD!
  • All videos become the property of GamersFirst and K2 Network.
  • GamersFirst may contact you requesting a digital copy of your video.
  • GamersFirst and K2 Network WILL NEVER ASK FOR YOUR USERNAME OR PASSWORD! ALWAYS KEEP THAT INFORMATION PRIVATE AND NEVER SHARE IT WITH ANYONE!!!
We're really excited for this new video to showcase everything our community has to offer, so be brave and be bold. You can submit as many videos as you can take. Remember, you'll only have ONE chance to get Faction War footage!!!

Good Luck Pioneers!

P.S. To record videos you must use a 3rd party tool. We use Fraps. There are other video recording tools such as Camtasia. Just remember the output MUST BE 30 FPS!!!
