Amazing work Dire!
Dear CCP, what will it take(in terms of cash) from us players for you to hire/contract Dire for an EVE Video Chronicle project, that will result in a monthly video release on the same amazing level with the Day Of Darkness II that just blew our minds!? I'm one of the many players willing to pay a monthly fee(or purchasing each release individualy), for such a project to take place.. please concider this.. not Soon™.. Now!

Maybe something along these lines. Or just to help out. Or something.

$10 each, then there'll be enough money flowing in via videoes that CCP will reopen EVE TV...
Oh wait, I'm just dreaming. ________________________________________________

weekly or bi-weekly will be fine. monthly is too much.

Just as a reality check -- and I'm not trying to shoot down anyone's hopes here -- it takes many, many hours of hard work and effort to make these kinds of things happen. I think everyone knows this generally, but they might not know about the numbers.
Dire spent a year working on his latest video, and ended up using CCP's tools because the video could not be done correctly any other way (and just look at the results). John Rourke worked 1500 hours on Clear Skies, a 40 minute stand-alone action/comedy. I worked 200 hours shooting and editing my latest video, as well as a couple months on and off for pen-to-paper pre-production working on ideas. I don't know how long it took Dash to finish the Havoc video. All of us have had to deal with managing human resources for our projects.
It would be impossible to pump out anything on a weekly basis, and a monthly basis is almost just as impractical for one person, but perhaps possible with a team.
Eve TV I don't have figures for, but I know it took lots and lots of money and manpower. If it cost high-end 5 or low-end 6 digit figures to broadcast the alliance tournaments, you can expect it previously cost about the same but on a monthly basis. Not to mention it was free.
I think we'd all like to see regular video content come back to Eve, along with more support for the amazing machinima community. But when it comes to pumping out regular content whether it be user or company-generated, it's a question of priorities and unfortunately money.

Edited by: Bratwurst0r on 01/04/2009 14:38:37 There are so many talented ppl out there.
Give them a battle-recorder (it was talked about many years ago, but never happened) and CCP-Tools (i would even pay for it).
Then you will see many more of this movies, about real EVE History made by players.
Atm its just so much harder to do: - you have to be at the right place at the right time and be lucky about lag so you can fraps it - you have to spend lots of time to get "filler-shots" on Sisis or TQ coordinating formation flights and all that (its a pain), and you cant get it right, not like the trailers - then you spend many hours cutting it and putting effects on top
Its just alot of work, and CCP could really help us with the first part (getting the shots)

what if CCP would make the tool publicly available? im sure the community would be creating lots of vids all the time. you would prolly get more then one a month :)

Sure it would, but it would also screw the whole "special" thing that these type of videos have.

By this logic we shouldn't have access to electricity 11 months a year cause it screws the whole Christmas lights 'special' thingie.. Thanks for the replies everyone.. Kyoko, love your work and to some extent i know what it implies, i just want to know what would it take, for CCP to do it.. not EVE TV, nothing like that.. a genuine Video Chronicle, done with the creativity, skills and talent displayed by Dire.. It can be done, that's out of the question.. there is a public for it, willing to contribute.. so, i'm just looking for a ballpark figure.. If CCP spteps out, maybe WE can do it, by licensing the respective tools.. it's in everyones interest, it's a genuine win/win situation.. C'mon CCP.. what's your stance on this!?

The battle recorder would be a superb idea,
This is the issue editors have, you just cant get the camera angles and players all frapsing to supply good footage.
If the battle recorder idea could be implemented we could play till our hearts content with getting decent footage to work from. I suspect there are more talented folk out there who would for giggles come up with vids and CCP get free marketing resource.
There is an issue of time, however the main problem is getting the correct footage to work from in the first place.
Hell CCP could even provide isk to clip views or something as an incentive.. not saying its much of one and sorting clip views etc.. would have to be ratified, but hey.. just give us the damn battle recorder already :)
