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 sound 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.
