Pool Stars have launched a trick shot contest which looks like it's going to be quite a hit. They say they've been working on their software for some time now and it's ready for the big time with a contest of trick pool shots. There's $1500 up for the contest winner as well as the title of trick shot champion on Pool Stars. The prizes for winning the trick shot competition come out like this; - $1,500
- $500
- $100
- - 6. $50
The tricky part of the contest (pun intended) is that you need to upload a video of the trick shot to YouTube to be in to win. So you're going to need to have to know how to work with video online to get into this Pool Stars trick shot competition as well. Interestingly they are only allowing 50 entries into the competition and
they don't mention how they are rated. So players will need to make sure they don't just upload any old trick show that they have a video of, they will need to make sure it's the best shot they have.In their tricks and tips page they admit it isn't easy to enter as there is no way to export the video of your pool shot from the Pool Stars software directly. This seems like a pretty big thing to me to allow people to get involved in this competition. You can only do it if you know a lot about 3D video capture on your PC / Mac and that's not very common! Perhaps next time they launch a competition they set it up so that normal users can compete? |
