I'm so down for that idea! When do we start?

Thats definitely good storyboard. Who's gonna animate the intro?

@Blaman, thats some cool stuff right there, I mean that shading on the planet's pretty good, that doesn't even look like alpha, well done! Also follow what Root said, making the text less blurry and more popped would make it more crisp.

So, I sat down at the end of today with my good friend Cameron, who owns a competitive TeamFortress 2 team, and he asked me if i could make him a logo. After a few hours, the final result was this.



I'm quite proud of the way it came out, and it's probably the best drawing I've ever made in Flash. Is there any CnC you guys could give? I would love to hear it.

Have you tried looking at some websites explaining how to make a good logo? Your logo looks pretty good, but you can always do some research to enhance it. Sometimes, simplicity is key.

I will probably animate the intro, but I think that the joint should start first with Nanite dropping down the cliff in the storyboard. I can make a template of teh background and some guides on what you all should be doing.

Quick question, though. What order should we go in and what music are we going to put in the joint?

Since I go first, I guess you should go next, as Leader, then Co-lead, then members. For everyone else though, I have no idea how you should go.

I guess it goes without saying that the music's genre should encompass a rhythm that's fast paced. I'll get to lookin, you too, Bla! I know you got that archive of sikcass beats.

EDIT: Got one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDa2npBoZwg

The intro could be syncd to Deus talking with the main bad guy, and this has some fairly fast snares, but otherwise, we can change the main battle music to something else.

Damn, that's a sick jam man! :D

Thanks for the help with the logo too, I'll be sure to look into. Our goal was to make one that actually had personality other than those other esports logos, and I think we succeeded. I'll take the bevel filter off and blur that planet a little.

Here's a candidate, for the battle music, it gets particularly good at 1:04 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4vCEHpv6Hg&list=RDHAW4xlbyu28&index=2
Zeta used this OST, not this particular song to my knowledge, for their Special Finish collab and many other Zeta stuff.

In fact, they used this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yeqzJQnef5w&index=14&list=RDHAW4xlbyu28
for their first part for Special Finish
lel.

EDIT:
Did... you guys know that Hero's dead, or at least temporarily? That's so, so we gotta make this promo good, since the two-clan collab's probably not gonna happen, and even if it still will, Hero's not gonna come back for a long time possibly

I think we've honestly been counting on Hero too much. I don't wanna be mean, but they've been rather untrustworty, and haven't backed us up at all. We can't count on them. I think it's time for a new ally, or maybe even go solo.

They're pretty much dead lol. We shsould go solo for a while and get some collabs done by us and us ONLY.

I agree on that 100% but as for music goes you guys should look up Two Steps from Hell. They are a music company that makes music for trailers and stuff like and their stuff is friggin epic

No offense to you, but seriously, what the helk do you expect? They're dead. They have no say in whether they are dead or alive. Especially when they don't have anyone joining. It's not their fault at all. It's your fault for thinking that a clan could gain members in a matter of weeks or months. It takes time to get members. You're the one who put a lot of trust into something that was most likely never going to happen easily, and that's your problem.

Even though I think your reason for changing allies is ridiculous, I think we should anyway since we have an ally that isn't active enough. Let's either go solo until Hero is back or choose a new ally in general.

I was the one that introduced the idea of join clan collabs, so it's my fault tbh. The reason why Hero died was due to inactivity. One one left, they started tryouts right away, but more and more of them left. Zane ended up being bombarded with life and he became inactive, which lead to their end. An inactive leader= a dead clan. Yes, it does take members, and it was annoying that they lost members while we were almost ready to start. It pulled us back because we were more than ready to start.

I'm not too keen on getting any allies atm. This seems to happen everytime we get one.

Also, lets not forget our theme song! The composer (Mark Petrie) does some epic music! I've been looking at Two Steps from Hell and they're pretty good! If I see some ones that can be good for our promo, I'll post it :)

Fabulous is about to release a new layout with allies.
If you guys want I can ask them if they would be interested in having you as allies?

Fabulous is a new clan and all members are really active on stickpage.
If we are not posting on stickpage, we are talking on skype almost every days.

His 6v6 team is ESEA open (whatever the fuck that means), but he currently also plays on a Highlander team and is in need of a sub. I can give you his contact info if you so desire. The 6v6 roamer spot is currently filled.

Well in my opinion, having allies means that we can count on them as they can on us, just like actual alliances. If we have a good relationship with a clan, we're not allies yet, simply friends, compare this to historical examples, if a nation traded with another constantly, they weren't allies, just good trade partners, but when they sign a treaty that says each nation should send assistance to the other on the brink of war, then that's an alliance.

Which is why, we'll be running solo FOR NOW, but don't think for a second that this will deny us a collab with other clans, they may not be our allies, but they can be our friends. Hell, this may even forge our alliances with said clans, depending on circumstances.

generalZ, thanks for this offer but I preferred that we observe other clans for now.

On the subject of music, I don't think Two Steps has some fast paced ones enough for combat, but thats my opinion, this is a group effort, link what you guys got, I wanna hear em all!
