Title: Muskie Madness...
Post by: Wraith_TMS on February 23, 2010, 07:03:50 PM
Because today is The Muskies' 20th anniversary  :cheers:, I'll risk the slings and arrows of the video  cognoscenti, and post the latest video I've done using my own and my squads film bits, called The Shoulder of Orion.

It's not meant to be a video AAR or a greatest kills clip.  Really, it's about how we feel when we play this game, but I think most AH players can relate to this, though.  :devil  It also features what the Muskies would probably consider our theme song. (Thanks, FLS!).   :rock

The link will start you in the larger screen at 420p, but for best quality, just set playback to 720p or 1080p, depending on what works best for your connection.  Note that the clips opens with a black screen, but it will have sound, so just be patient; the transition is a little slow to into the action, but I was trying for an effect and the timing of the music.

and

It's currently on our site's front page in an embedded player too, here: http://www.musketeers.org (http://www.musketeers.org)

The squad's been doing a bunch of silly sorties for our anniversary month, and I'll do my best to get some mileage out of those films when it's time to make another video.  :joystick:

Hope you guys like it.  Remember, cognoscenti, it's just for fun...  :banana:

Credit where it's due. The "March of Cambreadth" is by Heather Alexander who is now Alexander James Adams.

Well it was between March of Cambreadth or Muskrat Love (by the Captain and Teneille)...   :confused:   :bolt:

I think works better with Alexander's piece...    :rofl :aok

Thanks Clone!

Just so long as it was nothing by Celine Dion, I'm cool with it.

Yeah that one's ok, reminds me of the Pink Panther movies and makes me think of Peter Sellers and his absolute genius.
