Thanks! To be 100% honest our casting from Season 2 was pretty piss poor in terms of enthusiasm and excitement so finding an audio clip which was appropriate was impossible haha. I personally have worked a lot on trying to elevate my enthusiasm while casting and we also have Flamga on the team now which should be a great asset when he can jump on.

There is no doubt in my mind we will have some sick footage from this season to ensure we never have to outsource promotions again

Never casted before but i'm probably as enthusiastic as a guy can be so wouldn't mind helping out with some casting....i'm sure Champi would like to co-cast with me too

Hey buddy great to hear! We are always happy to spread the casting love around. The season is a huge 7 weeks so there should be plenty of opportunities. The only real limiting factor is the fact I am the only streamer with all of the setup work so if I am not around at the time.. although I am sure we could manage to make something work.

If you are on Facebook hit us up and join our group (http://www.facebook.com/groups/sastarcraftleague/) so you can be always up to date with what's going on.

I am managing sc2sea operations and I check this every day so communicating with us shouldn't be an issue if you aren't on Facebook/don't want to join.

Sweet sounds good, if you are not available when i am (Which will probably be a fair bit with my work) Champi has a stream so if he is ok with it we could maybe use that. I'll ask him ASAP

Champi:

Yeah no worries. I know Flamga obviously has his own and all that. I think in the interest of creating content for SEA we would rather have games streamed with accounts outside of SASLtv than limit streaming to only when I am available.

Sponsorship is almost finalised just waiting on a few peeps to confirm or decline proposals. Once that is done I will upload some images which would be great if they could be added to whoever is streaming. It will become clear when I upload them!

**Baldie** · Sun, 25th-Mar-2012, 11:45 PM

~~~ Please note these images are subject to change pending the results of some sponsorship discussions ~~~

Ok guys so the admins have decided in my favour - that is allowing people to stream SASL games from their personal accounts only when SASLtv is unavailable due to being in use or myself not being online.

As I am sure you all can appreciate these tournaments cannot be done without sponsors and we have some amazing sponsors on board. In the interest of making their investment into our tournament as worthwhile as possible, we require any person who streams SASL Season 3 tournament games to use the following images.

"Between Game Shot"
Between games while the next game is being set up or at any point where showing the live screen is inappropriate.
Example
Download

"Live Screen Overlay"
While live streaming gameplay can you please ensure this overlay is used. It should fit perfectly onto xsplit (so long as you are using a widescreen setup - might work on other screen setups too) try to make it work anyway! It is a .PNG so will have a transparent background.
Example
Download

Should these images change with more sponsor(s) coming on board I will update the images and let everybody know.

Thank you in advance for your co-operation.

wait....you ended up putting that video up?

x5_Bard · Mon, 26th-Mar-2012, 12:00 AM

I also have a little bit of casting experience and would love to cast if there are games available, with my partner in crime nRvDolo.

Indeed. It was my first attempt at a registration promotional video. Like I said in earlier posts unfortunate we didn't really have much footage last season which wasn't already used in the Season 2 promo video.

Can promise the Season 3 finals promo video and Season 4 etc videos will use in house footage. Surely with 50 players, a variety of casters and 7 weeks we can pump out some decent footage

Champi · Mon, 26th-Mar-2012, 12:12 AM

I'll cast from time to time with Bigbird

i have a stream and I cast the first SEA starleague and the TA invitational which were some pretty big events in 2011, so i have a little bit of experience, but its been a while

but i'm a player first, so competing is a higher priority for me

Too easy buddy. Most players will go about getting their games done in their own time but should there ever be a time where some people you know are about to play and you want to cast, so long as you use the two images where appropriate you have the all clear from the admins!

All the best for your games during the season as well
