Ok so I’m going to start a separate thread on this issue, and I would really appreciate everyone’s feedback. It’s with regards to the idea of making a “Promotional” video in a sense about Bar Billiards. I’m not going to go into “great” detail about the potential benefits of it as I’ve learnt that that despite all the discussions, arguing and debating whether something is worth it or not, I'll leave that to you guys :)
Right, here is what I’m proposing. Somebody takes the lead (and I’d consider myself) on creating a sort of “Bar Billiards Promotional Video”. Now in the past this was difficult as how would you distribute it? But this issue is now a non issue as YouTube is there for all to see, free, accessible to everyone and keeps your video avalible forever. So lets take advantage of that to promote our game! Here is what I would envisage the video being.
• A Brief History of the Game of Bar Billiards
• Some time spent on why the game is so good to play, and the benfitis of it over pool etc for landlords.
• A demonstration of how the game is played
• A couple of short interviews with established players about why they like the game
• A few demonstrations of tips and advice from said players as to how to go about playing, practicing and improving your game.
I would not want this to be a one or two person video. Rather there would be a narator that leans on established players, important figures and historians of the game.
The benefits of such a video being advalible to anyone in the world to watch are in my opinion far too numerous to list here. But either way I invite all feedback (possitive and negative) from everyone, as although I don’t know for sure I’m thinking I’m probably one of the few few people in our game with the presenting experience, video/audio and computer editing equipment and skills to get such a project done.
If everyone deems it a good idea, I’m willing to consider doing it, and probably more imprtantly wave the normal fee of such a project (which is substantial, trust me I know) and do it for minimal costs. So let me know what you think.
