Most recent upload: Winners League STX SouL vs hite SPARKYZ Jan 31th
Uploaded Feb 5th
These are short highlight reels put together by Newblearbomb and myself. They're meant to give a brief(10min or so) recap of a proleague match, for those people who don't have time to watch the entire series of VODs. Comments and suggestions are appreciated.
From now on we'll be posting the Broodwar Highlights into this thread. I'll add new highlight reels to the OP as we make them. Expect 1-2 per week.
Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoy!

nice idea :D appreaciate it, but the video quality is quite poor
anyway, keep it up !
|
Awesome, especially good for the games I don't watch myself. This is really good!
Wish you guys the best of luck.
|
This is a great aid for busy yet interested people.
|
Good work, I watched your previous videos and enjoyed them.
|
Awesome vid, great idea. i already watched these VODs and you guys summed up the games very well. Not too short, not too long. Best of luck to you guys in the future.
|
This is great for the games I miss. Thank you!

You're right, the video quality is unfortunately a little poor in this reel. I'm still fiddling around with my converter trying to get the right settings. We'll have it all figured out next time around though.

You should add the old reels to the thread too keep it good and centralized.

good work, i'm really liking these highlight vids.
just one thing though, it's pronounced ee-stro, not es-tro.
|
I enjoyed the video, nice work!
|
Awesome. This is just what I need to keep up with the scene
|
Great job, enjoyed it. even after watching all the games live!
|
I really enjoyed this since I never get to watch proleagues anymore... thanks!
|
|
Thanks for doing this, it's so good! It's so nice to be able to watch all the highlights since I can't watch much of the PL games late in the night anymore

really nice work done here. but dont say muties please :D
|
loved the videos, thanks!
but as said above, please please stop saying mewties, it does bad for my nerves. And a minor note, would be great if you can keep the audio at around the same volume when you're combining different commentating sessions. Although dont sweat it if its too much trouble.

Logical fallacy, there were no "highlights" in the hite v. Stars match. Such a terrible series of games.
Can't wait for the highlights of last night's games. Though.

Ignore that, What he means is he wants to see more exciting stuff(even when there isn't any) with music pumping in the background.
The mans already giving you the best every game has to offer with commentary. Not every game has micro battles or pimpest play moments... thanks alot and keep it up.

Again great stuff...is the opening an arcade fire song?
Also mutees really cracked me up =)
|
nice work, thanks for doing it!
|
I freaking love these. Thanks so much for doing this, it's really enhanced my PL experience.
People like you make TL work.
|
Wow this is really really cool. I'm going to continue to watch, but to me it seems like you could use more enthusiasm or switch up the pace of your delivery a little bit, but again that's just my two cents.
|
I like this and think it's fine. Reminds me of sports center on ESPN, very professional and well done. Some pet peeves I have are some of the pronunciations/abbreviations (ie LEEta and mutalisks (not mutees). Really dig the background info on how the players did the following weeks too, very nice job.
|
|
If you ever feel like you guys(only two of you?!?!?) are going to get burned out on doing these, don't hesitate to recruit some ppl for the cause
|
Awesome job guys. We really appreciate these.

Indeed it is, 'Keep the Car Running' is the name of the song.

Thanks for the feedback. We've been trying to strike the balance between enthusiasm and more of a straight cast, and it probably varies quite a bit depending on when we're doing the actual recording, ie less enthusiasm early in the morning...

We've definitely had some pronunciation slip-ups so far, and will most likely continue to have them in the future, particularly with player names(how does one pronounce ggaemo anyways.....). Unfortunately is difficult for us to find out the correct pronunciation before we make the VODs. Watching other peoples commentaries would be one option, but this unfortunately makes a time-consuming process more time consuming. As long as people point out any errors though, we'll hopefully steadily eliminate any errors, particularly the important ones: muties, hite, eSTRO, etc.

Ok enough trolling, but seriously, just you two doing it seems little hard. Why not recruit some people and make a team?
If people are interested in pitching in, we could definitely put a team together. It would take a bit of organization, but this is something that can easily be done remotely, with people working in teams or alone. By using Dropbox or an ftp we could easily transfer files without a problem. We've just been using Windows Movie Maker, which is very bare bones and comes with windows. Neither of us have any previous experience in movie editing or cutting things together like this. The one thing we do have is a very high quality mic, but i doubt that a cheapo microphone would be much worse for this kind of thing.
Anyways, if anyone is interested in doing a match or a couple games a week, let us know and we can co-ordinate and share resources as best we can. It would be awesome if we could get a large enough team to get all the games covered. For starters, if anyone's interested, reply to this thread or send me a PM, and we'd be happy to pass on anything we've learned so far, and coordinate with you so we don't end up covering the same games.

Thanks for all this effort. I will definitely be watching.

This is so great guys !!! :D:D:D GJ.
btw i hate how you say "SKT is up two:nothing" instead of "two:zero"
love these vids anyway !!!

This is really amazing. You seem to have the appropriate knowledge of openings and such which is very pleasant - dont really know the PvT-ones but im assuming that they are correct. And if that is so, im really widening my broodwar knowledge! Keep it going guys!
|
great work, much appreciated!
|
Thanks guys!
For having little or no experience, you certainly put together a solid, quick game summary. Watching the videos in order shows marked improvement too, keep up the good work
|
Thanks for making these videos! Really enjoyed watching them!
|
|
Thanks for the highlights, you guys should get a RSS feed, so I'd never miss one.

Great work, thanks for keeping it updated

Haha, just heard the recap of the boxer game + Show Spoiler +"Killer loses some lurkers to mines, so boxer makes a nuclear silo." Made me giggle

Thank you for these guys. Recommended to all my starcraft buddies, its perfect for them because their only very casual followers.

This is so awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really appreciate this guys! Keep it up.
If you really get this off the ground, you might consider taking donations. I know I would donate.

Would have been up last night but I'm having some troubles uploading to youtube.

Yep, this is refreshing and exciting.

Enojyed the CJ vs FOX highlight. Great work again.

This is great, specially for those who haven't got the time to watch all the games. I wish you could team up with more people so you could cover all the games;:D

Canada2720 Posts
The eSTRO vs MBC VOD is quite a bit longer than normal simply because the games are all quite long. It's cut into two parts for the moment, but eventually I'll replace it with a full VOD
|
Estro MBC was awesome! I particulary liked the "to sum up" part with the little illustration over bases and such.
|
I watched the first video, and in general its really good, there are just a few points where I think you could improve. 1. Saying muuties is annoying and also sounds like a 10year old 2. Im not sure what your take is on scripting your videos, or if you shoot them live. In your first video atleast, there is some long aaaaahh, uuummmmhhh etc, and that could be avoided by first picking out the videos, then writing a scrip, and reading that instead of improvising. This might be alot more work so its entirely up to you, and I could ofcource be wrong here.
Great idea, keep up the good work !

The first video in particular we didn't spend a ton of time on. It was more just to get the idea out there and see what people thought.
I think, or at least hope, that we've improved since that first video and will hopefully continue to improve as we keep doing it. We don't necessarily script the videos, but we do try to keep the ahhs and umms to a minimum. I recommend watching some of the later VODs though, as I think those are higher quality.
Thanks for watching.

|
Really appreciate it. Now I don't have to hurry up as much with homework and stuff, since I don't have time to watch every game.
BTW, did hyvaa vs Peace really go on for 25 minutes? That's... rare...

New Highlight Reel; STX vs KHAN. Sorry for the delay on this VOD, the game played last Sunday. Me and Newblearbomb are actually on other sides of the country right now, so we've had a bit of trouble co-ordinating the BWHighlights. I'm hoping to do one solo today though and post it later on.
Enjoy!

Wow, great stuff! Very nice and clean speaking commentators. This is better than watching full games korean commentatoring. Nice work!

very good idea, I've only one thing to pick on. When you talk, try and keep the microphone as center to your mouth as possible. in the end of the oct 25th sk vs oz reel, I thought my sound was stuffing up because your voice was going from one of my headphones to the other
Keep up the good work!

We definitely try to do this, unfortunately some of those earlier VODs aren't quite as polished in that respect. Also, In the last few that I've done i've been using a 5$ mic so the sound quality isn't quite as good as it could be.
|
Great stuff... I love watching these when I miss the set. Thanks for the effort!
|
Your mic is fine for me. In "KT Rolster vs hite SPARKYZ Nov 28th" there was too big sound difference between intro and the main part. By the way, that intro is really nice. Its hard to explain it, but the timing of all the sounds and sharp ending make it really good.
Sometimes you could recommend a game or just throw a note like "this game was action packed" or "outstanding play in Leta vs Tempest" that shows character of a one match.
Anyways, keep em coming.
|
these are really great, just watched all of them.

Yo thanks again! i don't realize how much ive missed and these help me catchup anytime i need to.

as always, greatly appreciated <3

Hey Everyone,
Sorry about the lack of highlight reels recently. Radfield and I are on opposite sides of the country right now, and with the holidays it's difficult to find spare time. Hopefully we'll be able to get something done before the new year, but we may have to wait until then.

Uploaded a new reel today, the MSL semi-final between Flash and Kwanro. There are a few mistakes in it but on the whole its pretty good, hopefully you all enjoy it.
Also, I'm hoping to do Jaedong vs Kal as well as the finals for both the MSL and OSL in the upcoming days.
|
why not more about foreigners? :| more fun that way, always talking about the koreans so boring
|
very nice summary of the games there. with your highlight reels, i don't have to bother watching entire series anymore (especially when they're mediocre). love your work.
|
highlight reels are so cool, its just like watching basketball recaps in nba.com, so awesome

I watched the series live but still watched the highlights reel. Really nice work, Thank you!

late response but, highlight movies were stuff that people like retuh/spitfire/ramdaraddaa/leafsnowx made. this is pretty much a commentary with a "highlight" wrapper on it. not that its bad, i watch it anyway, but i'd want to see those kinds of movies again, even with the lack of awestruck/inspiring plays lately.

great work, really appreciate it

a little too much "chipping away" in kwanro vs flash tho
