LBPC Trailer (Video!)

Archive: 33 posts

This has nothing to do with the LBPC: The Game, project, this is for the website! Hopefully this goes in here, because it is a project that has to do with LBP.

Ok, after getting an HD recorder I started to record levels and edit them. I love editing them and making them so I wanted to do something bigger. Then I thought of LBPC, and then I had the idea for a trailer!

It started as a simple idea of a sackboy playing levels and such, then at the end it says LBP, but then a story started to be created and I added much more. Instead of text I wanted voice acting, and instead of just level playing a wanted to show what you could do on this site, using LBP.

Now, I need you, the community, to help me with two things, first up is the easy part; I need levels for my sackboy to play through. These levels should be known by lots of people, and created by a member of this community. This will make people say; "Oh I know that level! That was an awesome level! Now I HAVE to join LBPC because the creators so cool and he must only belong to cool forums!" Just post your, and someone else's level, and then I will look at them all and see which ones should be in it.

I also need a voice actor. But there a criteria;


Good microphone! No background noises and no crackling. I want to hear your voice clearly!
Deep voice! I need someone older, we don't want a 3 year old telling us to join this community!
This one is non-mandatory but an English accent would be cool


If you think you qualify, then just record your voice saying the following line;

"Well hello there Sackboy! Why so sad?"

Record you saying that, then post a link to the file so I can listen to it. If you are chosen I will give you a script.

Thank you for helping, hopefully this will be an awesome video that grabs many LBPers attention and brings them to our wonderful community!		2009-05-01 02:21:00

I'm British, but 13, so wouldn't fit the voice criteria. Nice idea, though!2009-05-01 07:12:00

Nice idea! And I completely agree with Morgana's ideas for the levels.2009-05-01 17:24:00

Ahem, Morgana, Raz's Tomb was also a Mm pick (http://www.mediamolecule.com/2009/01/05/first-mmpicks-of-2009/#more-223).

...I still don't know how my level got on there... Anyway, this sounds like a neat idea, and while my voice isn't that deep, it'd be interesting to do voice acting sometime.		2009-05-01 18:35:00

Coola boola. It would be great if you could take every level that has been spotlighted but obviously there's way too many. The spotlight archive would be a great place to look though.2009-05-01 18:43:00

SORRY! I guess I didn't see that list and I was listing them from memory. It does have a very special place in my heart though 		2009-05-01 19:42:00

I'm 15 and I could record for you, I use a condenser microphone.
Although I don't sound too adultish - if that is what you are looking for.

Thanks for the replies. Trickster, just give me a clip and I'll see, I can bet it will be good.

Also, I don't want to many levels, maybe 10-15, so we will have to narrow them down to find the best, but I will put in Basilisk Bog!		2009-05-01 23:24:00

Try to confine it to active users. We don't want to boast of our forums ability with users that rarely post.		2009-05-01 23:51:00

Every level created by GrantosUK
Every level created by mrsupercomputer

Flaming Timberland 1&2

For the love off.... Just go to my hearted page and and find 8 pages of creators from LBPC.		2009-05-04 12:59:00

This sounds like a pretty cool idea! I'd recommend CCubbage's Splat Invaders Saga and Jaeyden's Abyss in addition to some of the levels that have been mentioned so far. Maybe even show off some of the Contra levels that Ninja and Jaeyden worked on as those have been pretty popular and it's cool that creators from LBPC were involved with them.

I'd suggest combing through some of the old spotlights as well. This community has produced so many great levels that it's hard to recall them all.		2009-05-04 15:20:00

I might give this a go tomorrow. I have a deep voice but it's also rather mumbly.

I also wouldn't mind having a crack at making my own LBPC forum trailer. Perhaps you could upload the footage you capture somewhere so people can download it.

Also if you want music I'd be willing to offer the use of some of my tracks if you want to try and create something that's totally community created. There's some samples of my stuff in my sig but I think this song would work pretty well.

That music was great, and is definitely a possibility. I may ask trickster to do a remix as he is pretty good at that.2009-05-05 01:16:00

Sounds like a cool project!

Really neat music Sosaku

I also have lots of music, some orchestral and some more electronic. Just some more options for music - or maybe you could use several songs.
Here's one that might be good for the background of a trailer. I think it could work behind someone's voice: http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/229747

Here's an electronic one that could work during footage: http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/184162

And some more...
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/213315
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/187014
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/180733

By the way, sorry it's on Newgrounds. Don't know if any of you love/hate that site, but generally I dislike it. It's just an easy place for me to upload my music. If there are better places anyone knows of be sure to let me know!

Anyways, yeah so if you want to use any of that music let me know.


Also, this is kinda off topic I guess, but I think that we should start an LBPC Podcast. I used to own a Wii a couple years back and I was on this small forum, and we pulled together a podcast. It was lots of fun, and I think an LBPC podcast could be really good.
It could have stuff about the site itself, as well as about LBP such as tips, awesome levels, and just general chit chat. All you need are a bunch of people (I'd be willing I think) that could do it over skype. Someone has to record the session (I might be able to do that - not sure), and someone has to edit it (I've never done this before but I'd love to try!).

But yeah... cool idea Cog!		2009-05-05 02:54:00

I am still wanting to do this, and with summer coming it would be easier to do.

Once we get everyone who will work on it, we can really get started.		2009-05-31 23:56:00

(dunno if this has been suggested)

but, film multiplayer parts, or playing with more than 1 person,
it shows how open and active the community is!

Yes, that is pretty much the story I was going for;

Lone sackboy crying, narrator tells him about LBPC, he goes there, meets friends, then plays our levels.

Also, I'm not really good at editing, I can make a video HD, and make pretty text, but that's it. I will definitely be making the script, making sure everything is going well, and filming.

I'll probably ask a Ninja Editor to edit it, so it looks professional.

And yes, you can be in some john.		2009-06-01 02:28:00

you could make it like a sackboy playing a scary level, he hides in a corner crying, then some other sacks come by and the sun comes out, etc.

(btw, dont ask me how, but for some reason i know how to get my sackboy to hide in a corner 0.0)		2009-06-01 04:56:00

Of June?

If so, then no, as I'm not going to do anything for it until summer, which is in 3 weeks for me D:		2009-06-03 00:56:00

Don't forget AAALone's Moving Parts!!!!!!! It's on the Highest Rated page!!!
And the Bunker by poms!!!! It's the number 1 level on the Highest Rated page!!!!!!
(Yeah, poms is on these forums)

I was thinking you should use music from a music level from LBP, like show the beginning and keep the sound from it, then show the trailer.
I have a music level made, but it's kinda short, and I don't know if it's popular enough. Is 3100 plays and 230 hearts enough? If so, the level is called "Ozzy Osbourne - Crazy Train (intro)" and my PSN is tjb0607. If not, then try using some music levels from Leather-Monkeys, he has some pretty good music levels made.

EDIT: TheJollyRajah's on these forums, just use one of his songs.		2009-06-03 03:24:00
