This is an Audio - Visual table you can use to see my vision for the project (if you make it look amazing without this, then that works too)
(first bit) (you may have to record / request chunks)
This is very general, the pacing will need to be faster and you’ll have to find complimenting clips for basically every part. Make sure to go back and reference my videos a lot to make sure you keep the style similar.
| Audio (script) | Visual |
|---|---|
| When you spend 4 years doing the same thing… and then lose money from it… you kinda want to stop. | Show footage of making games, then money going down in some way. |
| That’s exactly what I’m doing with game dev sooo…. what am I gonna do now? | Show my channel scrolling down and then a red (line or screen or something negative) indicating that it’s dying? (Later the viewer finds out it isn’t) https://www.youtube.com/@TryingCode/videos |
| ~~Either: - A funilly bad slideshow of these things |
- Smooth transitions between the call, the 62$, and a gamedev meme about no motivation.~~ |
| EDIT: THE PART DIRECTLY ABOVE SHOULD BE CUT | (Reasoning: it sounds bad and is irrelevant to the rest of the intro) | | To be clear, I absolutely love game dev... maybe even a bit too much. | My pfp with hearts looking at game dev, or a meme with drugs covered by code | | It's addicting to spend a small ammount of time on something and see it become a real playable prototype that players can have fun in. | someone saying ‘yo that game is fire” and then it switching to Shadow walker (or fortnite if that’s funnier) | | I'd say it's the ultimate form of art. | a sophisticated ttc looking at at his game shadow walker | | I did not just decide this suddenly and there wasn’t one specific moment that made me be like: | | | YEP THAT’S IT. I’M DONE. I’D RATHER BE A MCDONALDS WORKER. | An angry white meme face overtop a mcdonalds worker gif with the screen shaking | | But more like a series of small little things. | | | For example, working together with other fellow human creatures. | human = show a human ; creatures = make the human turn into a creature | | In school... we all know how that turns out | school kids having a foodfight? Idk for this part, be creative. Watch my videos for inspiration. | | In game dev it's usually the same way | transition to meme of Jim carry typing (find a way to make ) | | Sometimes you got great teammates who’re ready to die a horrendous death for the cause of your collective game | ready to die a horrendous death.png with discord scrolling blurred in the background. | | and sometimes they.. uhh he he give up | show discord icons of my friends and maybe some sort of text? | | The latter is a bit more common. | zoom out so that ready to die a horrendous death is covered by the (and sometimes they.. uhh he he give up) visuals | | One time me, Jayden and Dean worked on a game just before I went off to make Shadow Walker. | do that record scratch going back in time effect (sfx is a good idea). If you don’t know what I’m talking about, here is an sfx example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eG8nKHNjr8& | | The project started good enough, an underground single player 2.5D roguelike where the player can maybe shoot stuff and destroy terrain and kill bad guys. | This is a freebie, let the viewer have a little breather and show the 2.5 D rougelike | | I was working on the prototyping, art, and simple mechanics, Jayden was on the procedural generation, and Dean did some music. | Switch between (I am potentially open to an animation here) |
