Competition: What a prat!

Simista · Post by **Simista** » Fri Sep 16, 2011 1:24 pm

Hello fellow Violent Videogamers, Psycho Sim 'ere!

It's that time again! CompeTITion time!! And this time round, we want you to take on the role of Carmageddon driver, and make your own prat cam video like the one that featured in the original game! How cool is that? I'm tempted to do one myself! I might just do that if I have time hehe. The winner will be the one which makes us laugh the most.

The prat cam doesn't have to feature you if you're a little camera shy... you just have to make the video… it could be your mate, your other half, your little kid sister, an animated drawing or even a finger puppet! It's up to you go wild! Just make sure to read the competition rules!
1st prize is an exclusive Carmageddon Comp-winner's t-shirt. Runners up will receive a Carma: Reincarnation t-shirt.
All prat cams entered will feature on our very own Carmageddon Youtube channel!

To enter this competition simply posts your link here in this thread to your Youtube video or picture. Make sure the video on Youtube is commented or annotated with "Competition #3 "What a Prat!" and your Carmageddon forum name (so we know it's your video).
The winning entries will be announced on the forum after the competition closing date, and the competition winners will be contacted via private message for their full name and details to receive their prizes.

Competition rules can be found on our competition page.

now EXTENDED to Friday 18th November!

I'm gonna put on my fat face and do Don Dumpster. (I swear I'm usually not fat, but for this occasion!)

I really want to do a video, but I have no idea how to do it! I have a basic idea for a simple clip, but that won't suffice. I'm really eager to see what everyone can come up with.

Love the concept!

Let's see if I can put something together.

I'm busy with a Carmageddon-fan-art photoshoot right now, but I will try to make an video on of these weeks :)

I really like this competition!

Maybe next competition: A picture with yourself and your Carma car?

We were waiting to see yours! :P

This is a harder competition than some of the other ones. Involves setting up a camera and props etc. I do have an idea, I hope to get time this weekend to test it out.

Though not an entry to this contest, I thought I'd post a video of a semi-related mod here, to watch while waiting for the actual entries. Maybe some of you find it funny. :)

Re Redneck Max: That is pretty funny, the police sirens make it hard to hear though.

Licky Webster · Post by **Licky Webster** » Sat Sep 24, 2011 5:07 pm

Man... setting up an improvised blue screen is hard work!

Fireman · Post by **Fireman** » Sat Sep 24, 2011 8:32 pm

You should just get a camera, hang it in your car go out and drive into things!

Fuck yeah!

The cover art effect is easy enough to create with the burn tool in PS.

I suppose you could edit a few frames of these images together for looking left, right screaming etc, to make a stopmotion style pratcam.

Edit: Admittedly I should have added a steering wheel in there, at the moment it looks more like 'rockem sockem constipated zombies'

Coffey wins. Although... You misspelled "Competition" in the beginning of the video... Well, disqualified. *loud gong*

coffeycup · Post by **coffeycup** » Tue Sep 27, 2011 3:45 pm

Dammit, disqualified on a technicality! :)

I hope someone else is going to enter something. I don't want to be the only one.

B.A. · Post by **B.A.** » Tue Sep 27, 2011 4:05 pm

Working on it! Hope I will succeed in a matter of weeks with my limited programs and sound mixing abilities...

Razor · Post by **Razor** » Wed Sep 28, 2011 9:15 am

That was great, JC. Made my day to be honest.

coffeycup · Post by **coffeycup** » Wed Sep 28, 2011 11:25 am

@Razor - thanks, happy to brighten your day.

@B.A. - you've only got about 2 weeks left before contest ends, so hurry up! ;)

A little off the topic, but since were on funny videos: here is a link to my funny parody of a "Carmageddon Driving School" featuring the best vehicles of the original Carmageddon.....and some funky music and weird sounds.....oh and the best "slayings" of poor peds: Carmageddon Crazyiness

coffeycup · Post by **coffeycup** » Thu Sep 29, 2011 1:46 pm

There's already a Carma video thread. You should post it there. This for the competition only.

CoffeyCup is the only competitor? :O I am working on a short cartoon, hope I can finish it before it ends. :O

Licky Webster · Post by **Licky Webster** » Mon Oct 03, 2011 12:47 pm

The only one who submitted so far.

I predict much more of these near the end.

Fireman · Post by **Fireman** » Tue Oct 04, 2011 3:08 pm

I predicted that last time, but I was wrong that time.

B.A. · Post by **B.A.** » Tue Oct 04, 2011 7:21 pm

Fireman · Post by **Fireman** » Wed Oct 05, 2011 1:57 pm

I'm gonna try and make one if I can find a camera.
