1. What the hell is wrong with you guys?!
We don't know.
2. How did all this come about?
Devious bought a new Sony Mavica FD-90. It
does 320x240 fifteen second videos with sound... after coming up with
'Think Yer Tough', the rest is
history. The indoorwrestling.com mission statement is to provide
a quick conflict point or 'tagline', and then in 15 seconds, try and
resolve it. Most often, just like life, no one 'wins'.
3. What do you use to film it?
| I just told you that it was a Sony Mavica FD-90.
Weren't you paying attention sucka? We almost never had a camera
person either, which explains why someone always starts off camera and
hits record. We have a tripod now, but unfortunately, we filmed
most of the vids before we got that. |

As of July 2002, we have another camera added to the arsenal!
It is a Sony DCR-TRV27! We are excited that we'll have
multiple angles and longer shots to work with. This camera
rules... with its night mode, we may even do some low light vids! |
4. This site is pretty cool.
What technology do you use, and who does what?
The site uses some very clever PHP
w/ a MySQL backend. Also some JS here and there.
Bob deftly codes most of that. Use Photoshop, ImageReady, etc. for doing
graphics. Standard editors for HTML. Videos are manipulated in the excellent
Sonic Foundry's Vegas Video. Cafepress for the store.
Devious does all that stuff. Also thanks to grizz of
dipd.com who provides us with some
additional mirror space for our vids.
5. That logo is funny. Who
made that?
Trillian gets credit for that one. She did a great job!
6. How do you come up with your videos?
We usually have an idea, or we have some prop we want
to hit the other person with. Then we map out a simple scenario
that takes about 15 seconds. It doesn't always fit in the time
frame and sometimes we have to re-shoot. That can be painful.
7. I have an idea for a video.
Will you consider it? Will I get credit?
Sweet, you can submit your ideas
here. We'll
consider ones we like or can reasonably do. As for getting
credit, you'll become part of the database with your name (if you
choose) and a link to your website (if you have one). Also, we
have video advertising opportunities
too.
8. I have a video that I have made! Will you
add it to your site?
Most likely, no. We have big egos, and we need
to appear in all our videos. Plus encoding, etc. is a pain and
we have the 15 second limit, etc..
Suggest an idea instead.
9. Hey, I see you have some advertising, how does
all that work?
Check out our advertising page with all
the details! We've got a few options for you. Linking to
us might get you linked on our link page (?).
10. I don't really want to advertise anything,
but I'd like to help out. What can I do?
We can always use alternate server space (mirrors) to redundantly host our videos. The donation of bandwidth
is a great thing indeed. Use our
advertising page to get in touch with us about donating some server space. We'll give you mad props of course!
11. How can I contact you guys?
Check the actor profiles page for individual
email contacts or fill out the form on the
advertising page.
