ABF youtube advert/video gallery??

Hey guys just a thought.
I've been thinking of making a new and improved ABF youtube vid that displays all the members markers, maybe loadouts, some player action pics and mention of the tech help available.
To basically advertise the site on youtube a bit better.
I did notice one on there that someone made a couple of years ago, but obviously it's now out-dated.
With the forum moving home & new members arriving & new markers going into the collections.
Also I thought it should highlight the fact that Alpha Black Paintball isn't just for AB, Salvo, 98 owners.
But for anyone passionate about the sport..

So I'm after idea's and cool pics please to be included in the vid.
I was thinking of using alot of motm pics and pics from psp's apex gallery too.
Wouldn't mind a list too maybe from the mods which could include all the members who should be included in this vid.
As some have been in-active for substantial periods of time.

It could also highlight certain mods buisness's too like Sy's braclets and slings & Arson's matchstrike stuff.

Idea's guys????
Get posting. [Only admins are allowed to see this image]

i like.ill start a channel specifically for abp

Cool,
I'll go ahead and make a start on the vid tonight then.
Maybe we could do some video "How to's" on that channel too.

sounds like a plan. lets shoot for uploading this weekend? a launch with a how to, a promo spot, by you,.. and a something else by someone to be determined. n e 1?

Maybe upload some game footage that people take... The how to-'s seem like a good idea as well!

I like the ideas! How about video gear reviews? Dunk...I can pm you a PC for the member video when I get to work.

I was going to suggest that too.
If I can get loads of in-game footage starring our ABP brothers in action.
I'll include the odd few seconds of each member that supplies some vids or links to vids.

I think this channel could be a really good idea and want to make the vid as cool as pos.

If anyone has any objections.
I'd like to pull pics from the forums topics and include some of them and any footage in the vid.
Aslong as no-one has any objections or someone doesn't want their in-game footage or marker pic included in the vid.
So if you do have any objections just PM me or a mod, who I'm sure will tell me that you don't want to be included.
Doesn't matter if the pics are US-Army markers or not, cos then it displays the different styles of players we include on this site.
From the obvious AB's, Salvo's, 98's, Carver Ones.
But also that players who prefer mag-fed, pump guys, pistols, to space guns are all welcome join.

Cant wait to see the results!

Sounds like its gonna be awesome :thumbsup:

Dunk-a-lunk! All my best pics are on the book of Face. Most of them have me with either pistols or space gun, but grab some good ones from there, yeah?

Feel free to use any of the videos or pics here [Only admins are allowed to see this link] or here [Only admins are allowed to see this link]. It is the facebook page that my daughter set up for here and the website that I made. They should have all of the vids and pics from the games here.



Love your idea brother!

I'd like a little more time than that please Brock.
As I do work Fri, Sat, Sun nights & don't have a working laptop for work yet.
It's taking me a while to grab loads of pics and action vids starring our members etc...
I really wanted to do a good professional job on the vid, so can you give me till Sunday the 4th (at least) pretty pretty please.
You can't rush Art.

Quick update....Found some very cool non-copywrited music that I'm going to use.
So they'll be nocopywrite issues either.
The vids going to be approx 3 mins long

Okay I'm getting tonnes of marker pics now and have started compiling it all together.

As for action footage from our members I'm nabbing footage from Gramps, Oipunx, David and Radar.

I'll update as I scoure ye olde abf site, as theres alot more members action vids on there.
I'm only going for the more recent ones though.

I'll try to get some footage when I go next.

Vids getting there guys...
Just taking ALOT longer than I thought, cos of the sheer amount of vids and pics I'm having to re-size or convert formats....or both.
It's around the 1:50 mark so far and should be around 3 mins when done.

But it is looking really good so far.
Please be patient...it'll be worth it.

We be patient dunk...thanks bud for using you'd skills.

Thanks man,
I am hard at work on it.
Been PM-ing members to get permission for nicking footage and asking for updated marker pics too etc etc.
I'm very pleased with it so far. [Only admins are allowed to see this image]
Like I said though, it's all the converting and re-sizing of pics and that, that takes forever.
Some vids I'm having to convert like 2 or 3 times just to get a useable vid for after effects or Windows movie maker to use.
It's just very labourious.

Oh yeah...I know this is a bit off topic.
But the old forum could do with a quick spring clean of spam too.
And maybe another update posting about the move.
Just whilst it's up again for ......who knows...lol

I feel your pain bro!

:bounce:uploading to youtube now.
