As most teams within top level Enemy Territory have now got homes & support with some MGC's, Project Phoenix is now concentrating on spreading ET outside the scene - we will still help out the teams that have contacted us already, and also any future teams that need a hand - but one of the main objectives of the project was to educate people outside the scene about ET - and this is one step we wanted to take.
A monthly 'ET-Cast' for the next 3 months will be made, consider these as Pilot episodes, just as we iron out any poor coverage choices and also bump up the quality of the casts.
These casts will cover the top news and competitions in ET as well as giving people a heads up on frag movies. We will also be bringing you a couple of interviews per month with at least one written and one 'live' on Youtube.
As you will see, not much time has been spent on the presentation of the videos just yet as these are pilots we are spending most of our time on just getting the videos out to you, our aim is to get the videos out around the 5th of every month.

ET-Cast Interview with Owzo
ET-Cast Moment of the month
Hopefully you enjoyed listening and reading any of the news items you missed, if players in multi gaming teams want to spread this on their teams websites this would be great - so it gets as much exposure outside ET as possible. The ET-Cast Top10 should be along sometime within the next week.
Good luck with the project, good idea i think.
btw owso, 'and it looks like overload have completely blown their chances' worse than tosspot now!!!
nobody can beat tosspot
I think that a bit of vocal processing would help - download a free DAW and just hit some EQ, bit of de-essing, get rid of some of the boominess, make things a bit clearer.
And just generally if you were slightly more up beat. But hey that's preference.
And obviously when you start throwing in some little visuals that will help.
Stick with it!
The important thing is, you got the content right.
you said about using youtube live, could you do a show focused around a match much like football or other sports coverage is
i.e. have someone like owzo interview couple of players before the match, maybe had an admin chat about the importance of the match in terms of leagues and the like, maybe show a clip or two of a previous match (though that may takes some work) then stream the match live over the net on youtube as the masses' outside the scene won't have ET clients/ ETTV
one thing i didn't like about the ESL/Eurosport tv show is that it just talked about what happened rather than showing any action
Also on a seperate note what does phoneix mean to non-top players, the normal med-to-med+ type player who enjoys a good scrim but probs wont win much
like i said ive never used it.
Hste streamed some of AEF to me at work using another service which the quakelive community use, cant remember the name of it though sorry but is build with some game streaming in mind
Overall nice work :)
Keep up the good work mate!
Cheers

AND STOP TRANSLATING SIMPSONS, FAMILY GUY AND SO ON! IT'S ANNOYING!
Go owzo who's parent misspelled Owen when they named him! ;*
Keep on the nice job! :)
id try and get more stuff done in the visual department tho ;)
Tho, if you want to attract the "outer masses" to ET, it definitely needs these visuals - and you shouldn't rely on "everyone knows these players"..since it's aimed on outside of the scene, a lil more background information is needed imo.
Just my 2 cents, don't want to sound negative. As it is now, it's a great thing, but ofc improvable.
Espscially the ET moment of the month could be worth seeing for ppl new to ET..maybe emphasize that even more in the next shows. :>
Concerning the 3rd video, it's really cool. You could maybe add a survey on your website like "what is your favourite ET moment shoutcasted?"
Finally, if you need my voice I'll be glad to help you. You just have to let me a pm on CF.
And fuck Joshua :'D <3
that cast moment was wery well
other idea, but not easy to realize, make a little studio :) like once the hog show or how it was called for quake wars, wasnt bad :)

You need to project your voice more, speak clearly, more confidently - it's as though you're embarrased someone else in the house might hear so yer speaking hush hush . Give a bit more enthusiasm as said above, a bit more showmanship... sensationalism. Also do things like the Splatterladder thread really need a mention? Sure it's relevant to the people that follow ETTV real closely but they already know everything - is anyone outside really that fussed?
Someone speaking passionately & informatively about near any subject can be engaging and interesting (just turn on Radio 4 once in a while) so hopefully you'll be able to knock off the dodgy bits & generate some interest.
And in general, it was boring - but it will only improve ;]
loving the teamkill :P
good job merl & co.
butchji back in ET
keep it up
