(Vid) Starcraft is art.

I was bored last night so I made a starcraft video. It highlights some moments of a small tourny me and my friend played on the standard blizzard map (3) Holy Ground.

I just love the look of a minimap at like.. 8x speed. Starcraft really is beautiful and artistic sometimes, and I hoped to portray it in some way.

It also looks a little self indulgent, because it highlights some plays of mine. I don't think I'm amazing, I just wanted an opportunity to go from replay mode to first person mode.

One day I'll make another one with way cooler scenes, since I won't have to choose from 4 recorded vids for my highlights.

Yeah, the content was simply taken from a sample of 4 random games me and my pal played last night. I plan on making a highlight video like that but out of a month's worth of games or something.

Camtasia Recorder for replay/fpvod
Camtasia Studio for minimap closeups.
Windows Movie Maker ( v_v ) for everything else.

Just some little things about the video:
- Use keyboard scroll, it's much smoother than a flickering mouse.
- It's best to show either the replay or the first-person view, can be a bit dull to watch both, there are exceptions though. You can use both for one particular scene though.
- If you hold down "tab" (I think - the one that toggles terrain) then you get a much smoother mini-map (it updates a lot more frequently).

Other things:
- Early game spam isn't usually that interesting, but along with the thudding beat it was mesmerising in a way.
- I liked the music, not sure how well it fits with SC vids though. :D
No I'm never serious.

I actually didn't know a lot of that. Thanks. :D

Also, I love listening to trance with Starcraft :D. It helps me zone in and helps keep a rhythm going. I think it fits well with 2x speed starcraft.

That's not why it was 2x speed and you know it. That video would be 15 or so minutes without time compression. Looking at bwchart, I've been averaging 250 apm. Keep in mind also that these were casual games with my friend.

I was keeping the bunker alive so that he couldn't run his rines in and rape my base, also so it would buy me time to flank him. Apparently you weren't paying any attention.

Either way, "highlights" of people mining minerals with their first 6 drones and spamming is lol.

It's not really a highlight video. A lot of the clips are of the minimap, that shoulda tipped you off that it wasn't a highlight video. =) (Though some highlights are showed)

Hmmm I do understand why you like the minimap at high speed but it got boring pretty quick. Also the actual game I didn't find exciting but that might just be because I find TvT insufferably boring. Good for you though.
Oh no
