[QUOTE="Trainz, post: 1699448, member: 2122"] Well, I had a good time watching it. It's interesting to see those fellow geeks express their RPing experiences and POV's. The "animated" featurette made me laugh quite a lot actually. It's a bit too fast, but it was for the most part intelligible. NOW THAT SAID... Next time you make one of those, get someone who knows how to: A) Record sound and B) Mix sound (especially the music track mix). You will loose big points on those, and they are ridiculously easy to achieve with minimal work and gear. For example, at one point there is a guitar track that plays while someone speaks and his (her ?) words are drowned. In that specific case the problem isn't really volume (well, a bit), it's TONE. The guitar is too bright. lower the highs on the guitar track and adjust the mids (don't touch the bass) and you will ear the person much better, as the FREQUENCIES of the guitar track will not overlap with the frequencies of the person's voice. It's too bad, because the documentary itself is quite good. Sometimes, you can barely make out what the interviewed are saying because the "background" music is too loud. I highly recommend you re-mix the whole thing before Gen Con (you DID keep the original unmixed audio and video tracks now, did you ?), and you might actually score gold. My two cents (I'm a musician, couldn't help it). But I liked it and will watch it again with my players sometime. [/QUOTE]
