Title: Lonely Gauntlet 4 - Watch it now!
Post by: Joe Redifer on March 02, 2009, 05:55:12 AM
Lonely Gauntlet 4

(http://www.joeredifer.com/crap/gaunt4.jpg)

This is the epic and heart-wrenching tale about Gauntlet 4 and how it is so lonely.  It just wants to fit in somewhere, but it was rejected by all of the other Genesis games.  Can it fit in with the Sega CD or maybe the 32X games?  What does the future hold for Gauntlet 4 other than loneliness?

-Written, produced and directed by Joe Redifer!!! OMG!
-Featuring actual music to listen to while you watch!
-The most gripping and emotional tale ever told about Gauntlet 4!  Other Gauntlet 4 stories don't even compare!
-Release date: Right now.

Video:

- (direct HD link... Youtube actually calls 480p "HD", LOL)

-Quicktime 720p (http://www.joeredifer.com/crap/gauntlet4.mov) (this is the best version and the scource for the Youtube and WMV versions) - 44.8 MB

-Windows Media 720p (http://www.joeredifer.com/crap/gauntlet4.wmv) (still looks pretty darn good!) - 34.9 MB

Awww... he didn't have enough megs to intimidate the mighty NeoGeo and had to run away.  Did he pee himself?  That's good stuff; thanks for creating it and sharing.

P.S. - Lengthy Credits Add Authenticity.  :D

You mean irregular??  :)

I would have gone for something even more "fancy" if I could have.  I was trying to mimic Aaron's fancy fonts and super blur that he does on the pics for his videos.  It's supposed to make you feel like only rich people are allowed to watch it.

great video Joe! Can you tell me what equipment (camera and computer) and software you are using? I really want to get a whole new setup for shooting movies, my brother swears by Final Cut Pro (but I am a PC).

Camera was the Panasonic HVX200 which allows you to shoot one frame at a time.  It also uses the superior DVC PRO HD compression format where each frame is compressed individually instead of using i-frames like HDV which is based on the super-lossy MPEG format (MPEG is only good as a playback format, never an acquisition or editing format).  Editing was done in Final Cut Pro.   FCP is worth swearing by, it really is.  Adobe Premiere Pro can get funky in when editing in a 24p timeline.  You don't see too many professional houses that use Adobe Premiere.  It's usually FCP or Avid.  Computer is a Mac Pro (Intel) running OS 10.4.11.  I refuse to "upgrade" to 10.5.x.  I'll wait for 10.6 k thanx.

I think you have me convinced, I need to get a Mac and final cut pro! I am so long overdue for an upgrade!

I hope you have a large wallet.  Also, people will hate you.  Are you prepared to be ostracized by most of the internet community?

I like when he walked up to the Master System games and there was no chance for those games to even move since they were piled on each other.

Is that poster pic you made supposed to be a parody of Aaron's work?  :mrgreen:

This great movie makes me wish I had shelves like that to store my games on.
