The Chronicles of Kanbabrif

[jedimasterarcturus]

I would just like to say that I have watched the first part of C.o.K and I was amazed. I am so looking forward to the rest. Good luck to everyone who is working on this project.

Hello and welcome and thanks, new fans and old fans alike!

NEWS UPDATE!

CoK Part II is back in production! Cheetah and I are slaving away with every spare moment we can! Exclamation point!

I'm not going to give a time estimate on it, because every time I do, something disastrous occurs. But I will say that progress, so far, is coming along swimmingly.

What say we bring some life back into this old topic?

LET'S MAKE SOME NOISE!!

[FFMaster]

Woohoo!

Don't rush things though. Take your time and release it when you are happy.

[Dormin Jake]

:!:

 

Oh man yes.  Glad to see you back!

[Cheetah]

Oh man it feels good to see this thread alive again. I think no firm set dates is good, but do be prepared for awesomeness.

Excellent to see things are back in production! Good to see this project recommence, it's been a long time in the coming.

I'm going to copypasta the thing I wrote on the other CoK topic at GF:

I may need some help from all of you, the fans. If any of you have any of the following games and the capability to record in HD or at least higher quality, let me know:

Tales of Destiny 2
Warcraft 3
Fire Emblem: Goddess of Dawn or Radiant Dawn or FE10 or whatever the hell it's called
FFXI

The vids I've found with usable clips are not the best quality, so it'd be nice if someone could upload better recordings. If not, it's not the end of the world. I don't care as much about the FMV sequences as I do about the FFT scenes.

/copypasta

Chaumel is looking into the FFXI and Warcraft 3 videos I need, so hopefully he can pull off HD well enough. If anyone here can help out with those other games, I'll guarantee you a spot in the credits.

[BloodyBlade]

Aww. I got Fire Emblem 9 instead. Path of Radiance for GCN

[Bastard Poetry]

Fire Emblem 910: Path of the Goddess of Radiant Dawn 10

That's too bad, DC05. I've watched the vids of FE9 as well, and they just didn't work for Part II.

NEWS UPDATE:

Piercewise made a response video to my 5 facts vlog, and YOU CAN TOO! (If you want. I don't care. Do whatever. But watch his video, it's full of interesting facts and trivia and there will be a test).

Sweet, this is what randomly checking in gets me. =P

[SentinalBlade]

BP, Radiant dawn is the one for the wii...if your speaking of that one, i can do that for you :3

though there is program to record videos directly form the wii...is cam corder gonna be alright with ya?

[Archael]

Tonight I will be posting some videos of some very rare electronic-type music that could fit in some scenes if you need it

just a heads up if you need some alternative kind of music for some scenes

[LastingDawn]

If you want completely Off the Wall music, you should listen to JA Seazar, even if you can't understand the words, look it up. You know a song's pretty crazy when a few of the lyrics are "Stop! The egg and the bed are cheating one another!" Of course they're all in Japanese... which might make them undesirable... of course you could look up the lyrics and see how much sense those song's Don't make.

Ignore the background, it's just to give you an example of what this song sounds like, JA Seazar has many wonderous tracks. Though it seems some can't stand it.

Also this is one of their most famous songs, it appears.

I always appreciate music recommendations, even if I don't end up using them for this project. I'm a music fan, as you all know.

Though I'm not too keen on the stuff you just shared, Lasting Dawn.

I just can't get into a lot of Japanese stuff. I hate anime, I can't stand more than a couple seconds of anything j-pop-like, I think hentai is one of the worst things ever invented, etc etc. It's mainly just the entertainment media, sans a good number of video games, that rub me the wrong way. I have nothing against Japan, the Japanese or the fans. I just don't get the entertainment.

Take anime. The ONLY anime films I have ever enjoyed are: My Neighbor Totoro (because it's cute for the kids, and kitty buses are made of win) and Spirited Away (because I fucking HAD that dream, and I was fascinated to see that some guy on the other end of the world had it too and put it to video). That's it. Dozens of friends that I've known throughout the years have repeatedly tried--and failed--to get me to like all different sorts of anime, and I just can't. (So, in other words, don't bother trying, if that's what any of you reading this were thinking. Lolociraptor). I still to this day get in heated debates with "film critics" about the movie Kill Bill, which I HATED WITH THE FIRES OF A THOUSAND SUNS, and they loved. The only time we've ever been able to "agree to disagree" on any aspect of that movie is on the anime and anime-like elements of what they'd call "stylized action" and what I'd call "stupid." That's the one point where I stop arguing objectively and say, "Okay, well, I'm a little biased on that aspect."

I dig Chinese entertainment more. I also find Chinese history more fascinating, I love the language, the food, the mythology, the art, the music and, well, frankly, etcetera.

Fun fact: My wife has been studying Mandarin, off and on, for a couple of years now. I'm slowly picking up some of it by listening to her practice, and she regularly shouts things at me in Mandarin.. Cute things like, "I love you" or "You are a sexy husband" or "Get back to the fucking kitchen; don't make me tell you twice."

But I digress. I felt like writing out my thoughts, even though I know so many people here are going to look at this and think that
I'M THE WEIRDO..

spoiler: "Spoiler"

Back on topic:

I appreciate the offer, SentinalBlade, but camcorder recording is a big no no. You see, Voldemort is our Technical Advisor now, and it's his job to make sure that everything I record for the CoK meets certain HD standards. So I'd need a direct rip of the video or a damned good HD screen recording of the emulated game, which can't be done for the Wii, as far as I know. But it's a moot point now, anyways, because I won't actually need any clips from that game anymore. I've got all that I need to work with now.

I'll definitely hit you guys up again if I do need other FMV clips or something, though.

Progress has slowed quite a bit, due to certain professors on my end thinking that the beginning of the semester should be just as work-heavy as finals at the end of the semester. But I do still find some time every here and there to work on the Chronicles, and I really try to make the absolute most of the time I'm given.

All Glory to Kanbabrif
