Heres what i have achieved so far. It is currently a BETA video. So please, comment.

Can anyone also tell me how to embed this into the server?

The men above were deep asleep, while greater love lies further deep, this dream must end, this world must know, that we all depend on the beast below.

Cool, but, uh, I would rather see shards of rock and ash in a Graal level than just the words.

As far as the writing goes... It's interesting, but I think it would be better if all verses, save the last, had the same number of syllables. It goes smoothly in my head, but sometimes the reading feels a tad bit bumpy. And it's a little awkward. (I think there's an average of 8 syllables per verse, and that feels right.) But other than that good job.

Thanks matt i work on that right away

1. Use a script (zooming text is not hard) instead of a YouTube movie. Adam made a script for this kind of scenario: http://forums.graalonline.com/forums...hp?t=134260336
2. Don't waste too much time on an intro, most people will probably skip it.
3. It's funner to interact than to watch. The last thing people want is to be bored to death by cliches before they even get to play the server.

I agree with MattKan, having just text is kind of boring.. reminded me of the Ken-Burns effect used on slide shows too.. kinda gave me a headache lol.. I was kinda expecting some sort of scenes..

With that said, some of the text went too fast to read.. you should pretend it is the first time you are seeing the text to see how long it takes to read it and keep it up.. that and the fact that a lot of the community are kids and may not read that fast.


I also agree with fowlplay4, while you can script that easily, it also isn't too fun.. I don't really watch intros.. Classics was pretty darn good though.. then again it had mainly visual.. I am also a visual learner.. But if it is only an into, it isn't too bad. Just don't do a menu like Malorias start up.. I hate seeing that on entrance, I already have to go through two menus to get to the server lol..

[Emera]

Lol thanks galdor. I want it to play when a player logs in to emera for the first time.

This video was made in a couple of minutes and some gifs have been clumped together. This is what i would like to see. But not necessarily this video. Please leave constructive feedback on what you want to add/don't like/wish to remove. Thanks.
