New Trailer Project (Vote for the music)

[Bester Bageler]

A spaceship build would be pretty good.

I will try to get it done soon for this :)

Honestly I don't think that any of the options (aside from maybe the first one) would be good for a trailer.

This is my suggestion: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRLdhFVzqt4

Please read these as you listen to the song - I suggest opening them in windows next to each other.

(1) 0:00 - Fade in to a large, misty landscape (perhaps from the clouds). Flags flapping in foreground
(2)0:28 - High speed flyovers of large, impressive landscapes - straight flight, looking down - armies of bots swarming below
(3) 0:43 - Circle a castle on a hill. People/bots are visible moving and building on the walls.
(4) 0:56 - Camera begins at base of castle and moves up tower to the top. Archers/king visible on top of tower, looking outwards
(5) 1:10 - Sweeping panorama of land around castle. Army is beginning to form at the base of the hill, preparing to march at castle. Pan towards army. Sweeping camera passes over army continue as army marches towards castle
(6) 1:25 - Cut back to castle, viewing streets from directly above. Defenders are seen rushing to the walls. People seen rapidly building barricades
(7) 1:40 - Cut to wide angle view of armies arrayed, flags flapping in breeze
(8) 1:42 - Focus on army leader. Steps forward and swings sword to signal attack. Army takes a step forward
(9) 1:46 - Fade black to Blockland title


Maybe this plan doesn't have to be for this trailer, but I would love to see it made.

This music is just depressing for a trailer, it would be more fitting for a movie instead.

sounds good for anything but a trailer: it doesn't show anything about blockland other than the emphasis on a single build, bots, (although new viewers would NOT BE AWARE that these were bots to begin with), and doesn't show much building other than a wall barricade nor eventing

a trailer has to represent a game through variety as well, and the emphasis on being on a castle isn't the best way to showcase the game. if it would make you feel better maybe you can attempt this but instead of focusing on one build, it would be interesting for it to scale between other war fields or whatever, such as a captain of a space ship peering out of the roosterpit, then cutting to a king peering over barricades, army dude peering out a trench, cop peering over a police car to a band of robbers, whatever shows build variety. also that would show blockland's environment system. another thing, perhaps you could show a few people with wrenches just blasting out emitters and other events, it may wreck the view that you have on it but i can't think other ways of showing eventing seriously.

I have a good zombie map. It will be on at weekend for some time.
Come and see.

Do I really have to use boombox? I mean there is other better musics on the poll that could make the trailer a LOT better, well let's give those musics a 2nd try, I will reset the poll

[Anti-Block]

whyd you take off songs that got a lot of votes, wtf

[Greek2me]

Yeah I see the point about my trailer idea. I voted for the first one.

[Treynolds416]

I never understand people that do this

"Hey which do you like better, blue or green"
"I actually like the green one better"
"But green makes me look like a booger... I'll just wear the blue one"

My parents (9 years ago)
"Do you think we should move?"
"No"
"Well we already decided to move..."

You know, seeing as to how you are making the trailer, you are the artist that has to work with said song so why don't you just pick it. I'm assuming you already have some sort of basic idea of what you want it to look like.

[SWAT One]

If this is going to be on the whacky side, I recommend:
Whipped Cream - Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass

I have a lot of ideas that are way unfitting with Boombox, and let's be honest there is better songs to use on the poll

[quadilious]

hey boombox is my jam!!
but adventure time and pump it will work just fine too...

[Johnny Blockhead]

It'd be nice if you had a scene with a crowd of people. If there is something like this, can I be in it?

there should be like a million blockheads and the camera flys over them for a few seconds before fading into a the word BLOCKLAND that game where you build stuff
