CELEBRATE RMN4 AND MEDIA SUBMISSIONS! MAKE A TRAILER!

Alright with the launch of RMN4 and all the nifty new things (and the not-so-nifty occasional bug) and especially the new media thingamajig where you submit and get makerscore for making completely superficial things related to your game!

This calls for a celebration. And what celebration would be better than to make a trailer for your (or someone else's) game?

So the idea is this. I'm sort of creating an event here. Where the objective is to... make a trailer. That is a short movie about your game, selling it to an audience or just having a bit of fun related to your game.

Of course it doesn't HAVE to be your game. You can also make a fantrailer of someone else's game. (that's probably what I'd do, since I don't really have much in the way of games)

The rules are as follows:
1) Make a trailer for a game
2) Upload it to youtube
3) Post it in this topic
4) Submit it to the game it applies to
5) Watch the huge amount of Makerscore flow into your account

So who's up for this? I'm thinking maybe a week-long deadline or something. Should be enough to whip up a trailer.

EDIT: Man the all caps forum title together with those exclamation marks makes this topic look really crazy...

Camstudio is fairly nice. Most windows machines also come with Windows Movie Maker which (although not the most professional or beloved) is pretty okay at doing most useful stuff.

For sound recording I recommend Audacity.

In Vista and onwards there might be some trouble recording the sound of programs running (that is the sound of the game), depending on your soundcard there might be a bunch of solutions. If you're willing to shell out moneys, FRAPS supports the recording of sounds from games without having to go through the hassle of enabling or disabling stuff.
