Ravings of a Royal Sharpedo

Yay, a blog that doesn't liken Bulbagarden to Facebook!

Anyway, out of BW2-based excitement, I started planning ahead for a video walkthrough of the US version of Black 2 (and maybe White 2 in Challenge Mode). I even went to the Bulbagarden GTS and made a thread asking for an Imposter Ditto so I could use the instant transformation to get concrete knowledge of the movesets of Pokemon belonging to important opponents.

One thing I've also been doing is developing a special frame system I could use for the videos, making full use of the awesomeness of Sony Vegas. There's a somewhat-detailed explanation of it in the following spoiler. The fact that it's in a spoiler should tell you enough about it, so open at the risk of boredom. XD

The frame itself has some odd dimensions: 1440:720 (2:1). 1/9 of the frame is constantly hidden from view. In usual situations, I have the frame's "window" (where the actual gameplay appears) positioned in the center of the video, but for battles against important opponents, such as Gym Leaders, antagonists, and even legendary Pokemon, I can slide the frame and the gameplay footage a bit to the left and use the space on the right to display the opponent Pokemon's statistics in detail: type, Ability, item (if present), moves, and details on said moves.

Now that that's out of the way, I'd like to mention that I've been practicing this frame business a bit on some Japanese Black footage I should be posting in a TwitVid series. (The series itself is halfhearted, and I'm lazy. XD) Here's a demo of my frame system, featuring total ownage of Lenora! (Be sure to watch in HD!)



So whatcha think? Where could I improve on this, if anywhere?
