Saber Forum

I had an idea today, thought it was nice, then decided to share and ask for any volunteers to help and make this happen.

I started practicing the ropedart at the start of our lockdown, and yesterday I stumbled upon this video of several know ropedartists who collaborated on this.
Skip the first 10 seconds of bad acting and watch:

Then I thought it might be fun to do something similar with the people on this forum. Of course only with the ones willing and maybe you all have a better idea and just want to shoot this down.

So, I'm curious, who would be up for this and/or thinks this is a good idea?
We all make a short video, lasting 10 seconds, attacking the camera and I'll do my best to make a nice montage.

Just let me hear, who's willing to join, then we can set a final date to make and share the shots.
And if anyone has a nice copyright free music idea to accompany this, I'm all ears.



 

Good stuff, you can count me in, TCCW!  ;)

i never recorded a vid but im game is it dart only ?

Great!

This being a lightsaberforum, I would suggest the handling of a lightsaber would be the prefered choice. ;) Single, double, or staff is entirely up to you.

Just 'borrowed' the idea from the ropedartists.
 

Let's rock it

Great Finlay!

Let's hope a few more people join in.

I will if I'm able to

Given that you're posting in this sub-forum, I'm going to presume you've read/watched this thread: http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=23126.0 (http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=23126.0)

If not, go do it. Especially the first video. Do not skip the opening, it's amusing.
For anyone wondering, from the first video, Darth Venturous is the one with the double bladed saber, Darth CH3M15T is the one with the cowboy hat, and Darth Cephalus is the one spinning in a book store. (That's right, for everyone complaining that they don't have space to practice, he's spinning in the aisle of a bookstore, with a fairly low ceiling too. No more excuses, go get to work :D )

Sorry, my main point to all of this is that I think 10 seconds is too short a time for the clips. That's all.

Would be nice Drifter!



Hey Sakura, thanks for the link.
No I hadn't seen the video. I only joined this forum october last year, and to be honost, I haven't read this forum from front to back. I saw that this vid was the Spinwars of 2014. Much respect for the spinners, looked great.
I collaberated in the 2019 version, love the idea of the Spinwars, in my mind this was a different idea/take on a collaboration. But now that I'm writing it down, it does soudn kind of the same.

On the other hand, if you keep all the shots around 10 to 15 second, you can pull of one or two nice moves, hit/slash/stab/force-push your phone and we get a fun quick version.

Just let me know what you think. It's an idea for now, we can still call it a bad idea and not continue on it ;)

I think it's irrelevant as to whether it's a good idea or a bad idea. What's relevant is that it is (in my opinion) a fun idea.

I'm not trying in anyway to dissuade you from doing it, I was trying to provide an example of something where shots longer than 10-15 seconds worked (plus it's a really great video).

While the concept of a video collection of us showing off is the same as Spinwars, what you're looking to show is different. I just timed one of what I would contribute if I manage to, and to my surprise, it actually is about 13 seconds. So what do I know. The other thing I would contribute, again if I manage it, is just some very simple spinning that I can do from anywhere between 10 seconds and a couple of hours.

So my vote, especially given that you've already got several people wanting to contribute, is to continue on and do it.

One fun thing I thought of, perhaps for a separate video, is someone doing the same moves over and over, but each time with a different color blade.

I haven't seen that vid either it was good and I've never done a vid before this is the 1st forum I've ever joined so all this kind of thing is new to me lol
