Use source recorder for the recording.

People will favor movies made in SDK rather then ones without lip movement, meaning if you could do lip syncing, your chance of views are higher.

Also, below is two free screen capture programs, that allow you to record any source game, and other programs, rather then just source recorder. Source recorder can be a longer process.

Will you be using actual TF2 voice dialog?

For the love of god disable the HUD. I don't know why but it seems that typing [B]cl_drawhud[/B] in the console is too difficult for some people.

Use background music that isn't Too recognizable, but still fits well. I've seen Tons of ren and stimpy production music everywhere. That "The Spongebob" Video had a perfect soundtrack to it, i couldn't believe i didn't recognize it from predator. xD

:)

Yeah what he said also one of the biggest problems with this sorta stuff is they say "im gonna do it im gonna do it" but it never happens. IF YOU WANT TO DO IT MAKE SURE YOU "CAN" DO IT IF NOT ASK SOMEONE ELSE TO DO IT

EDIT: It's like when someone buys a fst car and says im gonna put a awesome as muffler on it a new steering wheel new alloy wheels new electric windows a suround sound system BUT.... if they have all this stuff to make it go faster and make it awesomer where are they going to use it there not professional rally drivers or something NO POINT IN DOIN IT AT ALL

Im gettin no where with this lol :)
