The Guild Answers Your Questions on How to Make Web Video

We frequently receive questions about how to make web video, and so we’re going to create an Extra/Bonus Feature for the Season 3 DVD called “Tips on Making Web Video.” In it, Felicia Day, Kim Evey and Sean Becker will provide tips and how-to’s, and answer some questions.

That’s where you come in! We’re asking for fan questions on the subject. You can submit your questions three ways:

1) Post a comment here (this post)

2) Tweet your question with the hashtag #guildquestion

3) Reply to the Facebook discussion thread that we’ve started.

Submit your questions no later than Oct. 4, 2009 and we’ll pick some to use.

Thanks,

Felicia, Kim & Sean

MUSIC AND LYRICS BY FELICIA DAY AND JED WHEDON

LYRICS:
Hang with me in my MMO
So many places we can go
You’ll never see my actual face
Our love, our love will be in a virtual space

I’m craving to emote with you
So many animations I can do
Be anything you want me to be
Come on, come on, share a potion with me

CHORUS:
Do you wanna date my Avatar
She’s a star
And she’s hotter than reality by far
Wanna date my Avatar?

You can type commands
I’ve got slots for what I hold in my hands
Don’t care what’s in your character bank
How ‘bout, How ‘bout a little tank and spank

Grab your mouse and stroke the keys
Here in cyberspace there’s no disease
Pick a time, send a tell to me
Just pay, just pay a small subscription fee

CHORUS

Single white human,
Looking for group
My stats so high
Don’t be out of the loop

Got an uber-leet staff
That you can equip
Close your mouths ladies
This is pure nerd-nip

I’m a pixel-based fantasy
A man who is stoic
I hack and slash
Who the heck’s more heroic?

Check me out:
Cloth armor
Fits me like a glove
Just twitta a time
And I’m ready for love

Hang with me in my MMO
So many places we can go
I’m better than a real world quest
You’ll touch, my plus 5 to dexterity vest

What role do you wanna play
I’m just a click away night or day
And if you think I’m not the one
Log off, Log off and we’ll be done

Thank you so much and stay tuned for Season 3 rollout, just around the corner! August 25th on Xbox Live and September 1rst on MSN/ZUNE!

The Guild Management
