As many may know there is that new trending youtube style video that has went viral and has had different variations get made in a 30 second clip called the "Harlem shake".
It is my idea that this server could jump on the bandwagon and try to use it for its own promotional uses if it gets done right in a collaborative manner. There are a few media oriented people here who could easily capture/edit multiple clips of video within an easy 30 second time frame of this particular portion of music to make an introduction to the public regarding the Blue and Red server.
If you aren't familiar with the videos you can find this recently posted thread here http://www.project1999.org/forums/showthread.php?t=98510 or just go to youtube and search "Harlem Shake".
My idea would be to start someone out who has an AoN with spell effects off keep clicking it to have the pelvic thrust animation, then when the beat drops you cycle through different zones with AE pulls of mobs getting stunned with players surrounding them doing random emotes.
Again, i would advise viewing the videos so this idea makes a little bit more sense to you if you have not already.
Zones that would be cool:
Sebilis
Plane of Hate
Plane of Fear
Chardok
South Karana
Burning Woods
Dreadlands
Overthere
Oasis
Those are just a few where it can be extremely easy to gather a variety of mobs of different look that would provide a "shake" animation while being stunned. The easiest way so that we don't have to rely on a ton of player coordination would be to have a GM broadcast the zone for people to show up then get all the mobs to one central location.
Just need people to fraps different angles, stun mobs, volunteer to surround them doing emotes, and then a video editor to take all the clips/camera angles to make it a reality. Potentially a lot of work, but another way to promote the server.
As far as red is concerned they already have their clips due to TnF's and such where they all have mass PVP with spell effects and chaos everywhere. I'd say combine the two servers and within the edit have the server color in the bottom right and the zone in the top left.
Throw it on youtube and see if it can acquire the mass views that a lot of these other ones are getting.
