Oi, et pas pour nous en Ontario? :P

But yeah, I think the general criteria 'make a damn good video' is fairly obviously the best way to become 'popular', unfortunately, there are dozens of really slick videos that will get passed over because people won't announce them, or they won't be downloaded simply because that name recognition isn't there. Take a horribly effective comparison, when M$ releases Halo 3, there's going to be thousands buying it just because the series has been successful thus far, the game could end up being total shit, but people will be too rushed to 'acquire the next epic' to take the time and judge the game critically as they would some no-name. In my opinion, it's really a combination of luck, skill and getting your name out, and as it's been pointed out many times, conventions.

You mean Halo 1 and 2 were good? :O
The first one was kinda enjoyable I guess..........Unreal 2K4 :twisted:



What are thoughts on announcement "posters"? I always like it when people make a splash image or poster style thing for their vids in the announcement thread...I usually will tend to take notice of when people do this...it's interesting and it kinda gives people a preview of the vid. I've downloaded stuff I normally probably wouldn't have because of the anime or song used, but the "poster" convinces me to get it.

You make videos people like and you're active on the forums.

It's no deeper then that.

Thing is, most people have issues getting both of those right.

They;

1. Make great videos and don't use the forums properly (meaning they either don't post enough or they're idiots on here).

2. Make average or bad videos and get on the forums often and are liked enough but are never going to be considered for a VMA because their videos aren't good enough and/or they aren't well versed enough in the technical side to be of help to alot of people. (<---This is the majority of folks on the Org's problem including mine).

Or...

3. They make bad videos AND they are annoying and stupid on the forums.

if you want to be famous you have to beat Mexcian Junior and Beowolf in a poker game.

Making a parody of some famous guys video.
