That's awesome! How much prep work does it take to do that?

Thanks!
Well, we got together at 11am, tooled around with the table, and the forces a little and shot the pregame interviews. We started playing around 2pm and finished about7:45, then shot some postgame interviews. We got home for dinner about 8:45. Most of the time was taken taking a couple of pictures after they announced each action, then taking a couple of pictures after the action was complete.
The post-production took longer, though it didn't take as long as I thought. First I take the sound (recorded separately from the camera) edit it down so it isn't 20 minutes a turn and sync it with some pictures. Then I add sound effects, music and fit the pictures and video together.
A lot of it is stuff I did as a radio producer. the video stuff is new, and pretty basic. But if you can see and hear what is going on, that's the goal.
The second part will come as I am able to put it together.
A friend and I were talking about trying to make good battle reports. Usually I rely
on the photos to remind me what's happening.

Most of the sound effects I got on iTunes. It was an album called Fully Loaded-Sounds of Guns and Weapons by Captain Audio. It was $9.99 for 99 sound effects! Some I picked up from some video games.
The music is Vangellis, Prokofiev, and I think Strauss. I used to work with a bunch of classical music fans so they gave me a bunch of suggestions.
