    Posted: 29 November 2007 at 4:49pm
So, I need a video for my Freshman Seminar class, but being an artisitic numbskull, I turn to the forum denizens for help.  I'd really like to see one of the videos like Tolgak made with the Lego men, but I'm open to other ideas. It needs to be at least 3 minutes long, but more would be preferred.(Up to about 6 minutes tops)

Things that the video needs to portray:
  • (preferably) Something related to move-in day
  • Walking up and down huge hill(s)
  • Sleeping/Sitting through boring classes
  • Partying
  • Maybe watching football?

That's about all that needs to be there, though any touches you add are welcome, pm me if you have any questions. Payment can be in MO, Cash, or Check.   My paypal will be up and running hopefully by the end of next week. The contest will go until Tuesday morning.

Took me 3 days to put that together.

Not worth the $15.

What you want is not hard to do. Just record it all with weird camera angles.

Here's the video he's referring to.


Which reminds me... You think the whole cake thing in Portal comes from the "Get the Cake" game?

How much DO you think it would be worth?  It doesn't need to be nearly as detailed as that one, just in the same style...

I'd love to do it. But besides the quite high price I would be asking for it...

Camera is AWOL

Laptop is down (had an on-board camera that didn't work with Linux anyway)

I'll be working this weekend.

Next weekend is final exams.

Possible honor code violations for both of us (big trouble if caught, the internet can expose a lot of this stuff).

I can't guarantee that I can come up with something by the time you need it, so you're safer doing it yourself anyway (in that case I can offer advice).


If you really wanted it, and your project is due after my exams are over, I'll see what I can do. It'll be your choice what to pay me or even not to pay me at all.

$15 is for sure not worth it for a flash video as long as six minutes, unless it's really really low quality.  It takes quite awhile to make anything in flash.

Knowing what I know now, I never would have used Chuck Norris. Making him the main character now rates as 50% fail.

Other than that, I accept your compliment.
