[CONTEST] YouTube the Empire #2

Discussion in 'Community Discussion' started by BunchOfBadgers, Dec 26, 2012.


  1. Hello EMC
    Are you a budding video creator and would like the chance to win some great prizes? Well, here's your chance! You have two months to create your video(s) and upload them as public to YouTube - hopefully bringing some new members to the Empire.

    Rules:

    1. The video must be filmed on EMC*. It can be in the form of a lets play, advert ect.
    2. All the commandments must be followed at all times. For example; swearing must be edited/beeped out.
    3. You're allowed to use mics so that viewers can hear you, but this isn't required.
    4. At some point in your video, a link to Empire.us (this may be your referral link) must be shown on screen. This must be edited/placed on a sign ect. - not done in an annotation.
    5. Don't mention names of other servers.
    6. Edit the video how you like. I recommend downloading the 30 day free trial of Camtasia Studio 8 although any editing software works.
    7. Play nice. Don't call someone else's video rubbish, you wouldn't like it.
    8. You can create as many videos as you wish. Each one will be open to voting individually.
    9. You may only include copyrighted music if you credit the creator and understand that YouTube may mute your video or take it down.
    10. You may use world downloader**

  8. Thanks Jack. I also included your EMC Wiki signature bar thing :)
  9. For mac quicktime to record.
  10. Camtasia 8

    Added it too the OP :)
  11. Eh, never use windows, but I know hypercam is a good choice, however it has an annoying watermark...
  12. Er, there's also a cross platform recorder called "krut", very obscure, but it's a .jar so almost every computer will run it.
  13. Actually, if I'm just recording small sections, how well does fraps record?
  14. Fraps is regarded as the best recorder- rightfully so.
  15. lol, almost had to do a double take when I saw who posted this.
    Good to see this contest back, though.
  16. It is glance's in for a second that should be fine. Just ask res owners and if they haven't been on for 10+ days then you can use their res anyway. I just think that its either going to be reset or left there, so it be shown :)
  17. Hypercam is actually terrible.
