FAF Podcast Series

Postby Petricpwnz » 21 Dec 2015, 15:18

After a moderately long flaming discussion in #aeolus about where faf is taking it’s course we’ve decided that it would be fairly important for the FAF community to create a “podcast” series where a designated host (TA4Life - best candidate) would interview FAF developers, contributors, tournament directors and players. At the end of the podcast he can cast a game of the “time frame between podcasts”, if he is interviewing a decent player a double-cast could be a great idea too.

Reasons for this are that almost nobody can clearly see what is really going on with faf, for instance there was this “next week we will put a new patch in the game” but then nothing happened, and until we got a new message on “What’s new” after like 3 weeks, nobody really knew what was going on. Some insight on the development, plans, tournaments and games with a good host would be a great step forwards for the community.

Second problem here is that the “What’s new” page isn’t being updated regularly but now you can give the host rights to post there and with podcasts being posted every *timeframe* it will make the community feel a lot more lively.

There was an attempt to launch a podcast series in the past by Sheppard, here is the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAs_ECA4WBg. But unfortunately it didn’t get past the first episode. Hopefully this time it’s going to be different.
We can figure out the format and inform the guests for the pilot episode together. As a host we are hoping to try and get TA first, but if you feel like you can take this place don’t hesitate and hit us up. If we find people we need we will use this thread to post new episodes.
___________________________________________________________________________
People:
-Host (the same on every podcast naturally)
-Guest developer or someone with inside information or otherwise involved guy (Sheeo, visionik), can change every episode (but doesn’t have to), can be absent if no time too.
-2-3 guests (usually changing, but can also have some staple guests if they are entertaining)
    -These guys should be players/streamers/casters that are relevant atm
    -Gyle would be an obvious candidate but can be someone more unknown too - try to have somewhat not so boring people though
    -Players of future or past tournaments would be good candidates

Format (suggestion):
-Intro video (I will make, Blodir makes the sound part)
-Introduce guests etc.
-Host should first tell who they are, why they are important etc. some info for players who are not so well versed in the community
-Guest says hi
-Repeat for each guest
-Quickly introduce main topics
-Discuss topic #1 etc.
-...
-Cast a game (optional)
-Outro, everyone saying bye and host naming potential guests for the next podcast

Good luck getting TA, and then what? are you gonna write down for him what to ask and what to say? Else this is suggestion to someone else do a lot of work. We have quite a lot of those already.

I don't really see TA4life turning this down. knowing him he'd love the idea and it wouldn't be the first time. also the guy can fend his own when it comes to knowing what to say. either way he isn't the only possibility.

I love this idea.

You mean a bit like this?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stKKMoe8qFk

Would be good to hear some more from the "counselors" and their ideas/plans.

Talking about series, we want more "Top Plays" episodes! :D

Yes, and it's a persistent suggesntion because this "flaming aeolus discussion" showed that something has to be done.

Something like this:

I am (and petric is as well) willing to help the host set this up, but I don't think I would make a good host personally

I guess this is a bit too short and ominous for an intro? xD
