[Help Needed] Smash Amino Documentary Announcement

Smash Amino Documentary Announcement

(In case you can't read the title because it's too long)

*This will be open for anyone to until August 25th. (unless we don't make it far in planning then I'll extend this date.)

Hello everyone!

It recently occurred to me to have this idea of a Smash Amino Documentary. But in order to make a Documentary, I'm going to need a lot more help. Being that a lot of people seem interested in the idea, hopefully this can become a thing.

This idea for this will be based of the Smash Bros Documentary that happened a while back.

(Also I'm the only current one at the moment I wrote this working on the project but I use 'we' in the hopes others will )

**This is not an official event**

This will be strictly Smash Bros/Smash Amino related.

I tend to over complicate ideas so please skim the blog at least so you have an idea.

*As of now, there is no deadline for the project, but the more people allows for the project to push forward.

How Will I Be Able to Help Out?

In order to participate in this project, we are going to need a few requirements/positions to be taken.

This is generally how I'm outlining it, as long as you are a part of the team, we can switch people if needed. There's no assigned roles per se.

There won't be any specific numbers of any position that we need, the more the merrier for the most part.

-We will need some leaders/directors/producers to come up with ideas as well as a guide to set everything up. Basically heads of the project. This will be a big position to fill. I recommend being very open minded so everyone can work together to make this project easier. Basically be open to change from others. (Although everyone will probably get a chance to take this role.) I'm not well known for carrying projects to completion unless I have some help so you guys might have to help make decisions.

Obviously if you've been here and were active longer it might help us out.

-We will need someone with recording (voice recording/scrolling through the app or adding in smash clips and all that) and editing capabilities to make it all possible.

-Info providers: If you don't want to talk but have some good information to hand out, you can provide images or stuff for narrators to talk about especially if you are a veteran to Smash Amino. This position can be pretty important.

-Commentators: Obviously if you want to speak on this Documentary you can. It would be really nice if we could get people spread out between who ed here when this app started to people who ed somewhat recently (though I'd recommended at least being here for a month so you can contribute more) so we can get some variety. It would also be nice if we could get people to talk about the different games of the Smash Bros. Series (64, Melee, Brawl, 4, Ultimate, Any smash fan games/mods) We could also include anyone who makes joke posts and people who create blogs. Basically we want many people as possible with different Amino traits.

Obviously depending on how long you've been here, the more or less you can talk about. I'd suggest comping prepared with the 3 events you can recall just in case we can only talk about 1 of the 3. We may not include everything that you want to talk about or we may include everything, depends on who and how many people we are working with.

There is absolutely no "relevancy," "popularity," or level requirement. Like I said earlier we want variety in traits so if you play Smash 64 and Project M, have been here for 2 years, and have helped out a lot of Amino you are fine even if you aren't well known by the community.

I also recommend tone down profanity in your speech if you want to speak because we are trying to keep it as appropriate as possible.

Make sure you are fine with the voice clips you are included because we can always redo them. Obviously if it starts taking forever (or we have strict timing) to get the perfect line we will have to take necessary measures, but otherwise you should be fine.

I stress the fact that you should be easy to work with others and open minded if you want to work on this project. Most likely everyone will NOT get their way throughout so we need to be willing to adapt to each other's ideas easily.

If you have a problem with another for some reason you will be removed from the project. If you cause any problems, harass s, or behave offensively you will be removed. You will only get 1 warning for behavior issues before you are removed.

Obviously we will create more/switch positions as needed and they will change as we go, but for now this is just to set things up.

How Can I ?

In order to / the the project I'm going to need a few things from you. You will need to post it IN THE COMMENT SECTION OF THIS BLOG.

**If I get any dms about this or messages in group chats about this unless it's for a specific reason, I'll send you back here. This is just for my organizational process. Also this goes without saying but we NEED you to be active (check in once a day/week at the least unless you are on vacation) if you are ing. If you are banned, your gets deleted, or you go super inactive we will most likely have to cut out your part if we can no longer communicate.

1. Your name/nickname: As crazy as it sounds I want to make sure that if you change your name 30 times that we have something to call you by in case we need you. ***This is not your real name, this is your Amino name***

2. When you are available usually: This will be essential. If you want to contribute to a specific part we need to make sure you are free during the day. This school year is starting up so that will only make it harder. (If anything throws a wrench in your plans please let us know asap if you can) I will try and group people together based upon the times they can work.

3. How long you have been here on Amino: This is a way of creating and organizing a timeline within the Documentary. ***If you have taken long hiatuses, please specify the time periods. We don't want to make you talk about something you had no clue happened.***

**The next few can be changed or added to later. They aren't necessary immediately, but update them in the comments whenever you can.**

4. Anything you would be willing to talk or contribute info to that would give you "variety:" (i.e. Smash game, events you experienced/were a part of, tournaments, certain types of posts)

5. Specific s you want to include (if applicable): There will be some limitations when it comes to s. There will be no tolerance for intentionally shining s in a negative light. If you don't want to talk about anyone please put "No one."

6. Anything else you would like to mention (not required)

If everything is perfect I will send you an invite to a chat where we can plan things out. If you need to fix something, I'll notify you so we can get you working on the project immediately.

[This is subject to change if necessary.]

Reward for Participation?

I also want to do an exclusive voice chat party when (or if) we finish. (This will only be for the people helping with the project basically in the chat. Everyone is invited to that is a part of the chat.) I have no clue when this will be held but this is a little incentive to work on the project.

This blog will most likely be updated so stay posted for any important updates that come across. I will post them here as soon as I can or someone will post an announcement in the comments.
