the unsigned hype - teaser:

frequntly asked questions


1) Why is this a teaser, not a trailer?

The teaser contains no scenes/frags that will appear in the main movie. The editing hasn't even started yet. So this couldn't be a trailer.


2) Why did you release it anyway?

Because I like making videos and I wanted to give people a taste of what's to come. Another reason is many people mocking me about how I "brag" about my skills and have no decent reference to show. Here you go!!


3) When will the main movie come?

all time classic: it's done, when it's done! release is planned for 2nd half 2006. I'll try to finish it till summer, though. Editing of the main movie starts in March, so pack your demos and send them in.


4) Can I still send in frags?

Yes, you can! But read the description of the project first, there are some rules and restrictions concerning the demos. Detailed information can be found in one of the various posts:

deutsch: mouz-link
english: sk-link


5) How good a demo I need to appear in the video?

Only the best and most unusual frags appear in the movie. Stakes is high, because I want to keep up with state of the art fragmovies. Not more then 2 frags 
from one player, but they have to be both very good, then. And: class better than mass! 3 good frags
 are always preferred over an eco-bash ace with a HE and m4 automatic fire. I try to minimize the number of eco-scenes as good as possible. 


6) Can you make a movie for me/my clan?

During my work on this project i recieved many flattering offers to work for clans/player, but I have no spare time, at the moment. I will concentrate only on the main movie. After the release of "the unsigned hype" i'll decide, what to do next.


7) What programs did you use? How did you compress the video? How can I achieve the "best" image quality?

All these questions can give you hints on how to create a movie, but will not necessarily increase the quality of your movies. Moviemaking takes a sh** load of time and effort, learning, trying, testing and reading. You can only be good, at what you do, when you understand, what you're doing. People telling you "Do this!" or "Use that program/tool!" will not help you at all.
