Skywind Trailers [UPDATED 24th JUNE!]

In MY opinion, go for it, most definitely. Publicity is great, but, also in my opinion.. don't listen to my opinion at all because I only joined the contributor team last Saturday :D

But seriously do it... but don't listen to me, seriously... do it.

Wait and see what some of the people who have been here for longer think, though I still think you should do it.. in my non-important opinion... which you shouldn't listen to.

Hmmm, I just had a thought, and it might be a little different from what you had in mind for a trailer. I assume you're thinking of completely just cinematic shots of Morrowind, combat and dialog with characters in the game. 

Maybe some parts of the trailer should focus on the development of the mod itself? Such as shooting some footage in an earlier version of Skywind, and then shooting footage of the same area in a later version to show the development. 

And showing the development of certain assets, I know a lot of people on here post tons of screenshots of their models and textures from beginning to end, so it would be really cool to have comparisons of the development of say: A piece of armor, or a creature like my Kagouti, or all the amazing work jk is doing on the High Fane remodel.

But I feel like my idea might be so different from what you might have wanted to do, it's totally up to you, maybe even make two trailers, one showing off everything ingame, and one of all the work people have put into making the ingame look that great (: 

A cinematic and a dev trailer, or a mixture of both in one trailer. As I said, up to you.

Damn! knew I should have recorded myself modelling. I would have loved to have that in a trailer. I think my hardrive fills up too quickly though, :/ for my stuff it would have to be screenshots, but I'm sure other people could do that.

Please no. Have something everyone can enjoy, like Nerevar Rising or even the Reprise.

Yeah lol, no dubstep in a fantasy game trailer.....

Besides, you can sync up shots of the game perfectly with Nerevar Rising, that classic   "Dun da duhh-duh duhhh-duh-duh duh duhhh, dun-duhduh." at 0:25 seconds into the song

Perfect theme

Mehh

Perfect theme

 

Okay... so this must be used^

Dude I make random skywind vids all the time, churn out as many as you can lol, although I've tried all kinds of different music and people seem to like the original sounding stuff more, they seem to be less happy with remixes, especially the rock ones lol

That sounds really good.

Originally I was going to try and have a lower toned Morrowind theme with the Skyrim barbarian vocals over the top but it just didn't suit. I found a decent remix and I can always change it up to match the style of the trailer and Skywind itself. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBniIW1ek2c

Also forgot to mention, yeah I don't think the Skyrim vocals would be necessary anyway, I mean the only thing Skyrim about Skywind is that it takes place in the Skyrim Engine, it is just Morrowind. So Nerevar Rising would make much more sense.

Yeah, make sure the music is something neutral but enjoyable. I always turn off videos with heavy dubstep or crazy metal. (Let the bodies hit the floor)

These three topics should merged. We don't really need three identical active topics discussing trailers, do we?

The three ones about the Youtube channel

Its a little dark but the trailers pretty good other then that.

It was pretty dark for me as well, but very well done!

Nice to see people engaged in the Skywind project. I think the people behind this project are doing a damn fine job!

About the trailers, nice work but too dark for me as well

 

 

I really enjoy these trailers, and the last one wasn't dark for me, I don't know what happened with the landscape vid  O.o Anyways, like a lot of people are saying in the comments, the areas being shown aren't done yet. So hopefully the landscapers can get going so you have finished stuff to show off because it sounds like it's turning off a lot of people seeing it incomplete :/

I hope intelligent people can appreciate it's a WIP

Lol unfortunately there isn't too many intelligent commentors on YouTube :)

Ya I always try and be nice and try to answer all their questions and just tell them to go to the forums, I answered the same question 3 times on one video, I mean seriously there is like 15 comments it's not that much just read a little. . . . . . And then of course just ignore the idiots and ignorant pricks, or just troll them hard :p

Dude, Youtube comments are like the scum of the earth. I don't know which is worst, people on WorldStarHipHop or Youtube comments, okay people on WorldStarHipHop are much much worse, but Youtube comments are pretty high up.

My suggestion is to quit making trailers(why are we still making these?) because people already know enough about us.

I don't make trailers, just update vids, granted most of that you can just figure out by stopping by the forums, but some people can't install skywind so the ingame stuff is nice to show off, plus it's kinda fun

I think they're fun, you're talented at it, and if it has the chance of bringing anyone to the forums, why not, right?

I'm thinking of trying to get one of thoes top 10 skyrim mods of the week people to show the trailer and the mod off but he can't be one of thoes people that skyrim is the first elder scrolls game

Plus gopher and mmoXreview have already featured skywind

Once we get a few more of the beautification things done then we could do a nice little trailer again, but a little patience, I think we've shown one too many purple textures for now.

Bittercoast is awesome in 0.7.0 and Molag Amur is a show stopper. Just a few cut scenes with the right lighting, suitable camera panning...and no purple or black textures please!!

Your videos are a good promotion tool. Thanks !
