For each major Thrive release we make a trailer highlighting the new features.
I think this is a pretty major part of the outreach each time.
Our usual trailer guy is (probably) not available to make a trailer for 1.7.0 next week. So we need a backup plan. Or really someone else, or a group of people, who can handle the trailer.
So the usual requirements apply we need gameplay showcasing all the major visual features of 1.7.0 and then someone needs to edit it together into a minute and a half trailer or so.
Also some additional requirements I don’t think I’ve written anywhere but need to be taken into account
- The ending black screen needs to be about at least 20 seconds long so that end cards can be displayed fine
- We need a 1:1 aspect ratio version of the trailer for Instagram
- And we need a tall aspect ratio trailer for YouTube shorts (these usually get almost as many views as the main trailer)
- Footage must be in 16:9 aspect ratio and at least 1920x1080 resolution and I think 60 FPS at least as that’s probably what the final video will be rendered at least.
- The 1:1 and tall aspect ratio trailers should immediately start with gameplay as people on shorts platforms will scroll away from the trailer immediately if it starts with text (which is not visually interesting)
