The Jedi Academy Series

As of this moment it is my pleasure to announce that The Jedi Academy Series is now green light and ready to go!

For those of you who don't know, TJAS is a series of video shorts to show people exatley what the Academy is all about.

To start with, research and recording will begin on a sort of intro video that could be posted on the site as a sort of advertisment to inform and create intrest. It will be a very general introduction to the JA, short clips of classes, duels, and interaction, all synched up to a great SW soundtrack!

The proceeding videos will break down the Academy peice at a time with videos on the Staff/Trainers/Knights (and thier paddies!), the way the Academy is run, gametypes, projects, themed videos, and, of course, one specially reserved for the goof-offs and jokers here that need several years of therapy, preforming whatever crazy stunts, tricks, assassinations or laming they do. (A.K.A. the JA version of MTV's Jack@$$. :D)

How will this all be put together?

It is actually very simple. First, anyone with a good connection to the servers can record a demo, the recorder will then go over the different recording of whatever they have recorded and choose the best one and send it to me (or to someone that can upload to a good server for me to download.) Once I have it, I can process and cut the demo into several clips that I will review and then select what fits based on what we have discussed here in this forum.

Go ahed and start posting ideas and let's begin to hash this thing out. Actuall recording will not begin until at least a small layout of the first video is complete. In the meantime, experiment with the spectator mode while trying to keep track of a high-octane duel and test your connection to see if it is steady enough to handle recording.



I have spoken about this with the entire Council and they all agree that this can be something great if we really put some effort into it. I myself am prepared to put myself into this. However, this is NOT my project! It is OUR project! Something that I want the entire Academy to get involved in, one way or another. Something that we can look at with pride when we are finished!

I have an idea for the Jack Bum stuff :)
3 actually, 2already recorded

Everyone stands on each others heads-hits their bind for /kill-they all die at same time (looks cool actually)-recorded

Someone in center binds "THIS ACADEMY SUCKS!!!"-3 people fly at him w/ rdfa :) (recorded)

and last...a magic trick DB showed me-Surround someone with mines, and watch them escape :)

You don't have to write everything in capital letters, there's nothing wrong with our eyes :D

How about this for the music:
Requiem For a Dream Soundtrack

Or what about this, it is a Dutch song, but the music is great:
Within Temptation - Ice queen

Note: these would be good to go from slow to fast
not the other way around.

JO for any shots in the Academy map, and for any single-saber duels. JA for anything else. :D
