Hello,
During a conversation I had with SlightlySt00pid (gods of warfare) I proposed an idea to him about recruiting prominent and talented members of the Unreal Tournament 3 community to create a youtube channel. This youtube channel would be managed by a small group of people in the UT3 community and would be updated frequently. The channel would be similar to that of
http://youtube.com/gearsopedia and will contain: montages, competitive matches, top plays of the week, commentary, etc. There could be content pertaining to older Unreal Tournament games, however, it is preferred that the focus of the channel be squarely on the most recent iteration of the series, "Unreal Tournament 3".
This youtube channel will be the community's last ditch effort at revitalizing interest for the game. Some players are even bothered by the fact that Epic Games has no updates scheduled for UT3. Personally I don't think it's a big deal since the game has mod support. The existence of mods adds to the game's replay value, customization, and extendability. There also exist mods that enhance gameplay such as the dodge jump and OnSlaught 2.0.
However I can't do this alone as this requires the collective effort of a team of talented individuals who possess a certain skillset. That is what's required to have this idea come into fruition. If you're one of the following then please contact me:
Producer -- A producer is a video editor who, given various gameplay clips, can put together a montage. This person is familiar with various video effects and can work his or her way around well known video editing applications such as Adobe After Effects and Sony Vegas. This person may also be familiar with the rypelcam mod and can put together cinematic gameplay videos.
Director -- A director at Unreal Theatre is someone who simply records his own gameplay videos and adds commentary to them; record and commentate.
Commentator -- A commentator would be responsible for providing commentary for top plays of the week and other gameplay videos. Ideally this person would need a high quality microphone and be somewhat familar with the gameplay mechanics of UT3 (so he would know what the hell is going on in the game).
