As I’ve been enjoying TF2 a little too much I thought I might try my hand at making a one off Machinima.

Rough Outline

• Based around the exploits of a spy.
• Comedy
• Map will be either Forts of Gravel Pit
• Will only use in game sound effects (not including music)
  • hence no voice recordings, and wont have to worry about lipsyncing

Possible Story lines

• Idea #1, A bumbling spy who always screwing up
• Idea #2, A fear inducing spy
  • This idea will be somewhat of a black comedy
  • Blue team is only a spy (main character)
  • Red Team is a heavy, engineer, scout + maybe pyro
    • Red time will be on defense(or acting defensively)

Probably Issues

• You need a dedicated Camera character, as when recording demos in TF2 it only records from the first person.
  • So I’ll also need to find a way to disable the HUD
  • I presume NOCLIP still works in TF2
    • Ideally there is a way to limit the movement speed of NOCLIP to allow for smooth dolly-esque shots
• Might need to beg and plead with my friends to lend me on of their Steam accounts to experiment with.
• Also since I can’t script anything I will be need to find players/friends willing to waste a few hours recording with me
