SF Live! Online Edition 2022

Anyway, do we agree "Oct 1 2022" for the due date for performance videos with the "video fight" being rolled into whatever the following challenge happens to be?

It seems reasonable, and is in keeping with the poll results.

[sleepysilverdoor]

Then so it is. Can one of you add a banner to the main page so people don't overlook it?

[Lunkhead]

Sure, I'll update the news item on the homepage.

Folks will need detailed instructions for how to name and submit their video files, either in this thread of in a new/separate thread.

Also helpful are recommended specs, not just total duration but if there is any preferred aspect ratio, frame size (e.g. 1k, 2k, 4k, other, etc.), frame rate, file encoding, etc.

Personally, I like the idea of one or two 'not live' videos. Better production values usually, and they aren't that long to add to the mix.
I like a limit of 15 minutes or 3 songs for each artist. as long as the visual part is 'new' for SFL and not a repeat - or a premiere - I still have some live archive stuff from MC Frontalot that hasn't been mastered I could use as an excuse to get off my butt and finish editing that concert after 11 years.

If you need help with pre production, etc, I have some toys and tools to help out.

I liked the live 'VJ' aspect to things so you could have some interaction with people in the chat, but others might have a different opinion.

Depending on the time I might be able to help day of but could definitely contribute some ids and fun in between stuff.
I loved the things Fluffy came up with as well!

My studio setup should be functional if not complete by then, so I can probably do some presenting etc. I think the night jb and I hosted went alright.

I've updated the initial post! Everybody get to recording!

PM me on the Discord, we'll discuss further. I'm a n00b at webcasting, but I did do college radio for 3 years...

I would recommend doing a pre-recorded show that gets broadcast as a premiere. But that just means having even more opportunity for production quality on the host segments.

I've started figuring out which songs I'll be doing and am practicing them! Happy to do some animated id bits. If anyone has an id that they'd like a silly animation for, let me know.

Reach out to some SF folks who haven't been around awhile! This has been great the past couple of years and the best way to make it great is to solicit content from all of our SongFight homies, active and dormant!

We used a Google form to have folks submit their videos and info last year. I thought that worked well. If you pm me a Gmail email I can share it with you so you can reuse it if you'd like.

[sleepysilverdoor]

See the submission email in the initial post in this thread!

[Lunkhead]

For folks who didn't see it in the Discord or notice the update, the first post of this thread has been updated with submission instructions.

Please render your videos in H.264 1080p and email them to catfish.deity@gmail.com

Are you wanting folks to actually "email (the videos)" to you or to email you download links for the videos?

[sleepysilverdoor]

Eh, download links would probably work better.
