Team Fortress 2 movie contest

We are proud to announce our first movie making competition and the first Team Fortress 2 movie making contest. The aim of this contest is to promote Team Fortress 2 in general, and try and increase the editing involved in Team Fortress 2 frag movies in general.

For full details, please visit our contest page.

Introducing projects and demo library

In preperation for the Team Fortress 2 movie contest we will shortly be announcing, we have built a platform for movie makers to list their work in progress. With the use of the project listing, producers can gather demos from users, or browse through the public demo library. Users can follow the progress of projects, post comments, view screenshots and read updates regarding them. Get started by creating a new producer group and add your project. Users can post their demos for all movie makers to use here and if they wish to submit for a specific project, they can follow the submit link below the project.

Generating depth of field in After Effects for Team Fortress 2 footage

This tutorial will show you how to use the z-depth footage attained from using in-game command "r_depthoverlay 1" in After Effects to generate depth of field with the Lens Blur effect.

Watch the tutorial here.

Introducing producer profiles

We are proud to introduce our new producer profiles (sample)! Now you can find your favorite movies based on the creators, or to learn more about the creators behind a movie. Movie makers now have the possibility to form their own movie groups or join existing ones. Please note that a lot of movie groups exist already, and if you are part of the group please apply to join and claim ownership of the group (all requests will be moderated). Get started and form your own movie group now, as we will shortly be opening our demo archive for movie makers to use to find content for their movies, as well as the upcoming Team Fortress 2 movie contest!

Updated video player and fixed poll
