Intro Video

I didn't see this posted.

 

[South Austin]

Excellent. Thanks for posting.

So is that replacing the animated running with the Horns we've seen the past few years?

no. that was made by a poster here a while ago. lots of debate over the use of metallica. consensus reached that its a **** ton better than what we use now.

 

[RamAirJon]

GOD I HOPE SO!

 

[Texas___Fight]

That video was created by NEwherebutA&M about a year ago. It's really nice work but unfortunately it won't see Godzillatron.

 

[Bluepies]

My biggest problem with it is that it's too long. Probably should be somewhere between 30 seconds and one minute.

Better than what we have though. But if you think about it, that's not a very high standard.

 

[scottsins]

long intro videos are fine and some of the best intros in college football are long.

fyi, our intro video is ******* lame as ****. it would be lame if SHSU used it.

the fact that we use it is unfathomable. how on earth do they think it is acceptable. matt (NEWhere) made that **** at his house in a week or so. they probably spent a **** ton of money on a garbage end product. makes zero sense.

 

[TexonLongIsland]

great video. I bookmarked it this time

 

[TexasStarHorn]

The crap we play now is embarrassing.

Please let this NEwhere guy make one to actually be played.

 

[CaboWabo]

We really need to dump that video intro. It was cool 10 years ago. And don't get me wrong, I love Metallica, just not at college football stadiums. Leave that for arenas, or Blacksburg.

There was a video posted last summer where the intro showed a lot of old games and overlayed on the video was the austin sky line and it kind of ended with a burnt orange sun and the tower. For the life of me I can't find it on youtube anymore. Can anyone help?

 

[WorsterMan]

SMASHING!

Saved that to my favorites.

 

[badexcuse]

I could buy a coke, mix and drink my whiskey, go pee, buy another coke and mix another whiskey by the time that video finished.

 

[TexasStarHorn]

^ great contribution to the thread.

 

[Handler XIII]

I wish that video lasted another 20 minutes! I'm so pumped now I can't sleep.

 

[ImissWallyPryor]

One improvement to the ending would be to slow mo Mad Dog running onto the field with his man boobs bouncing.

Mad Dog at full speed is no way to fire up the home crowd..

 

[scottsins]

that video was a whole 2.5 minutes long.

 

[bassale47]

Maybe they are making a new intro video for Godzillatron. I saw a notice on MB-TF.com that they were lighting the tower last night from 7-10 PM for video production "in preparation for the upcoming 2008 Texas football season." I can't imagine what else they would be making a video for.

A new video would be awesome. Or how about they just contract Blizzard Entertainment's cg department to make us one if they really want to go the CG route?

On another note, again, there was one other intro video that I can't find anymore. I mentioned it a few posts earlier. Does anyone remember what I video I was talking about? I think after the intro it showed highlights of either the 05 season or of VY's career and then the rose bowl game. Any help?

LonghornSean, thanks for the link that was it.

 

[scottsins]

there is no ******* way that 2:36 is "way too long for an intro video".

 

[vtaenz]

What's the beginning song used in the intro video by NEWhere?

 

[TexasStarHorn]

I saw this one made by the same guy on YouTube. More of a history video.

Just to clarify the record, NEwhere compiled the clips used in video over a week or so, but actually made the video in an hour at 2am one night.

Why the hell we allow that crap we have now to see the light of day is beyond me. They ought to have a contest and let fans design the best vid. Fans send in their vid, best one gets picked with credits to the person and season tickets, and the final vid gets professional video publishing/editing etc.

NEwhere did a great job with the video.
