Re: GNOME Promo Video Animation Mockup
Hi Allan, Thank you for your response! It is nice to know that other marketing materials will take shape as videos too. I will gladly help with the editing and processing. As for the promotional video I am working on, I will make sure to have a look at the brand guidelines before I begin, thank you for the links.

Re: GNOME Promo Video Animation Mockup
Hi Bastian, Thanks so much for this. I'm sorry I've been so slow to respond. I've got a few ideas about video content in general - I hope they're useful. First, one of the outcomes of the marketing hackfest is that we're pushing for all our marketing materials to be consistent with our brand guidelines. This includes both the content of the messaging as well as the visual style. I'm still working on this, but there are resources you can refer to [1, 2]. Second, there are a few places where we have discussed the need for video assets in the past. The first is for the GNOME 3 page [3], to show off some features. For example, it would be great to have Watch the video - connecting GNOME 3 to your online accounts. We used to have something like this that Jason Clinton did for the 3.0 release, but those videos are now too out of date to use. The other thing that we've talked about is doing a series of short interviews with GNOME contributors and turning them into a short film. I think that we often struggle because the GNOME project remains faceless, and am always inspired when I hear about why our contributors do what they do. Putting those faces and stories on the screen would be really cool. This is something we might film at GUADEC, and it would be great to have help with editing and processing.

GNOME Promo Video Animation Mockup
Hi #marketing! I am doing some progress on the promotion video. I have spent the last weeks finding solutions to various problems the creation of this animation introduces. Me and sri held a meeting yesterday and we decided that I should do a mockup of the animation and hear what the rest of you think. The mockup can be watched here (it has sound btw): http://rvzt.net/Temp/crappymatic.avi I recommend you to read the storyboard first to get an idea. http://rvzt.net/Temp/Storyboard%20Pieces%20Falling.pdf Yes, I did mess up the order of events but that was of course not my intention. Other than that, all feedback is welcome! As soon as my examn period is over I will look into creating the actual animation. :-) Best Regards, Bastian/Urne -- marketing-list mailing list marketing-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing-list
Re: GNOME Promo Video Animation Mockup
Pretty sweet, Bastian. I'm getting a much better idea of what you're thinking here. My only issue is that it's sort of cold in a star trekkie kind of way. It would be great to also have a contrasting video full of warm colors, smiles, and so forth as well. I think this video might appeal to one cross section of our users. What do other people think? Great voice over btw! I like your voice. On Sat, Jun 22, 2013 at 2:23 PM, Bastian Hougaard gn...@rvzt.net wrote: Hi #marketing! I am doing some progress on the promotion video.
