The Green Horror

Post by S'rrt »

Hi everyone. I just wanted to share a video with you that I made with a friend. The reason why I'm showing you this in General is because it somehow reminds me of Illarion's RP. We'd be glad to have some opinions and/or criticism:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCIgR3WSWe4

It was made for a contest on spoonyexperiment.com where people were asked to re-enact the fight with an enemy from the game Ultima III: Exodus. The video shall reveal exactly what that enemy is..

This was one of the winning entries btw and DAMN are we glad:

PS. I'm the monk.

Congratulations! That was a great performance. I truly appreciated the crescendo from the third minute and on, the music the, montage, the intensity of the role-playing. Again, congratulations. It reminded me of what I think is one of the best scene from the Lord of the Rings, when Elrond's daughter confronts and dares the wraiths to cross the river that flows into Rivendell.
I guess Leva will be more in awe of S'rrt from now on!
See you IG

The awesomeness of the clip is matched only by the awesomeness of your beard.

Thanks so much for the feedback u guise. I know many.. well, all of you are saying it's flawless but come on, we want to improve in case we're doing this again (which is likely) :D

Still, we enjoy getting the positive feedback. Maybe our fantasy buddy cop-couple will return..

lol Karl I thought the video in its self was AMAZING but im pretty sure if I had walked up to have a picnic and saw two guys sword fighting with grass and one dressed as a monk I would laugh my arse off.
which made me giggle when i thought about it during the video.

Hmm, i thought that was pritty epic. Few more interesting facial expressions would have gone down well :D maybe fight some long grass next time so you can actaully "kill" it, lol. Great work.

Well, the only thing I could say as to give some constructive criticism... the bouldish guys voice... it just sounded too funny :lol:
Perhaps working on his accent? :wink:

Yeah, other than tall(er) grass and the over dramatized Swordsman's voice,
Try to get a robe that has thicker material, just to make it look more.. period. You know, have it made of wool (Which is nice and useful after the video).
And the other is when using that type of rope for a belt, which I've done myself, it looks better if you braid it in three strands and made the ends kind of ragged.
Other than that, for what it was it was well done. Reminds of me of DnD in a way.

We wanted to do that at first but couldn't find a good field of tall grass.

He likes going over-the-top like that.

You're about the 18th person to say that (even outside this video). Can't be too harmful looking like a messiah, I guess.

Thanks for the advice, Anon.
