[lang_nl]Zoals al aangekondigd, heeft het Chessvibes-team in Linares een verslaggever die filmmateriaal voor ons gaat verzorgen! Macauley Peterson doet er dingen voor ICC en Chess Life en heeft de Chessvibes-camera bij zich om mooie dingen voor ons te maken. Hij is duidelijk meer ingewijd in de filmwereld dus ik kijk uit naar zijn werk. Vandaag kunnen we al het eerste filmpje uit Linares presenteren, met beelden van het begin van de ronde. GM’s/IM’s, in order of appearance: Topalov, Leko, Carlsen, Ivanchuk, Morozevich, Aronian, Anand, Svidler, Danailov, Motylev, Kasimdzhanov.[/lang_nl][lang_en]As announced, the Chessvibes team has a reporter in Linares to get us some video material. Macauley Peterson is working there for ICC and Chess Life. He’s clearly more into the film world than the rest of us so I’m looking forward to his efforts. Macauley took the Chessvibes camera with him and brings us images from Friday’s 8th round. GMs/IMs, in order of appearance: Topalov, Leko, Carlsen, Ivanchuk, Morozevich, Aronian, Anand, Svidler, Danailov, Motylev, Kasimdzhanov.[/lang_en]

  2. kiryakleiv on March 3rd, 2007 13:15

    great as ever! thank you guys

  3. Cerberos on March 3rd, 2007 13:16

    Great job! I was wondering what Anand and Topalov were argueing about.

  4. edlrr on March 3rd, 2007 13:44

    Disgusting noise

  5. Neffi on March 3rd, 2007 14:05

    Thanks for the video, and not to sound unappreciative, but I really could do without the music.

  6. Niels van der Mark on March 3rd, 2007 14:09

    on my pc I can turn the sound down if I wish to ;-)

  7. Nas on March 3rd, 2007 14:13

    hey guys great vid!!!! music also good :)

  8. Majnu on March 3rd, 2007 14:52

    Hahaha :-) Nice video and good music!

  9. beckett 74 on March 3rd, 2007 15:36

    nice video, nice footage, and the soundtrack was a joke, right? Or was it?

  10. tigre on March 3rd, 2007 17:06

    I liked it! Good stuff. Thank god for the internet :-)

  11. Luchito on March 3rd, 2007 18:29

    I loved it!! The soundtrack made it very lively.

  12. Dennis on March 3rd, 2007 20:02

    Please go back to the old style videos. If I want music and jump-cuts, I’ll watch TV. Two things made the live videos fun: getting a feel for the atmosphere in the playing hall, and then learning something from the post-mortems. This offered neither.

  13. luiez on March 3rd, 2007 20:42

    We want analysis (just like in corus).

    :)

  14. paralex on March 4th, 2007 00:29

    That was fantastic!!

    Can’t wait for the post mortems.

    In response to the nay sayers. 1. We don’t get chess on T.V. here (Australia)
    2. My P.C. also has a volume control funny that.

  15. Pal on March 4th, 2007 00:43

    Without a proper poll, there will always be “nay sayers”. People are simply voicing their opinion in hopes that future presentations will suit taste. Who is to say they will get what they want?

    I agree the photography was well done (someone said “setting the mood”). However, I did not care for the music either. I like to hear the ambient noise, since I’ve never been to a super-gm tournement.

    Also, does anyone yet know what Anand and Topa were arguing about? Was it during the game? I do not believe I’ve ever seen a post-mortem with Topa (no friends?), so maybe that’s all Anand gets, is a discussion at the board, not in back room…

    Regards,
    Pal

  16. andrei on March 4th, 2007 05:48

    good job – very nice video and music !!!

    I agree with luiez: we definitely want analysis – just like in corus !!!

  17. sr71 on March 4th, 2007 06:03

    WOW, more, let’s have more.

  18. Rinzou on March 4th, 2007 06:19

    Hi great video! And the music was also great; but then I’m a big fan of Steppenwolf.

  19. DD on March 4th, 2007 09:04

    Is it my imagination or have videos improved in quality? They load very fast too.

    Thanks and good job Chessvibes!!

    The music isn’t bad – don’t understand why the knock, isn’t analysis, isn’t interview, just a brief clip of the tournament site in general. I especially liked the scene with the rows upon rows of olive trees talked about in Chessbase of Linares. Nice to see what the countryside looks like.

  20. peter on March 4th, 2007 10:13

    [lang_nl]Voor iedereen die wacht op de ‘persconferenties’: hoe de spelers hun partij uitlegden met een demonstratiebord bij Corus, is vrij uniek. In Linares kunnen we waarschijnlijk niet voor zulke filmpjes zorgen maar we zullen in de toekomst zeker proberen spelers en toernooiorganisatoren ertoe aan te zetten![/lang_nl][lang_en]For all who are waiting for ‘press conferences’: the way de players showed their games with a demo board is quite unique for Corus. We probably won’t be able to do videos like these. But we will certainly try to encourage players and organizers in the future![/lang_en]

  21. Begemot on March 4th, 2007 11:49

    Great video! 10x :)

  22. thegreatbakker on March 4th, 2007 11:52

    Great video, and good music! Let the knights dance….

  23. Thursday Next on March 4th, 2007 11:59

    Nice stuff, maybe the music should change, depending on the best game. So if Moro wins, we could listen to some russian music, if Anand dores, some music from India – but what kind of music do they play in Norway?

    Keep it running!

  24. Mark Crowther on March 4th, 2007 13:36

    I really loved it. I guess if it was to Wham! or something I really destest then would have had a problem but it was to magic carpet ride, what’s not to like?

    Post mortems even at Wijk tend to be down to the mood of the players, it would also depend what kind of access Macauley had to any players areas. The Wijk press conferences were instituted when I think it might have been Timman complained that the journalists were getting all his games wrong so they said you should come and explain.

    At the end Anand and Topalov were clearly having a post-mortem discussion on stage, it wasn’t that long a game anyhow.

    Very nice footage of stuff you’d actually want to see within the confines of what you can actually do whilst they’re playing. Obviously it would be nice to get a time scramble but I think that might not even be possible.

  25. Paul on March 4th, 2007 22:51

    Come on! Everyone there want to ride a magic carpet! All is great.. more videos. :-)

  26. Ernest Tomlinson on March 4th, 2007 23:10

    Yuck. The only difference between this and half of the “music videos” on YouTube is that the video clips happen to be taken from Linares footage and not from the creator’s favourite Japanese cartoon.

    I want to hear the sounds of the tournament, as others have noted, not a damn remix of one of the most overplayed songs in classic rock.

  27. Mduchamp on March 5th, 2007 00:29

    Great work, really enjoyed both image and sound. Especially like shots of moving pieces one after the other and the post mortem Anand – Topalov. Nice to just get the scene, the faces and some of excitement of top level chess. Keep ‘em coming.
    Post mortem’s especially useful.

  28. Brian Sinclair on March 5th, 2007 02:51

    Great video guys!
    Cool to see the super gm’s at the board…music was fine!
    More to come we hope!

  29. Josef Rater on March 6th, 2007 18:43

    Very nice!

    Good Luck Magnus

    More to come hope!

  30. Spiros Ilandzis on May 14th, 2007 19:33

    Nice shots, nice music!
