Ultrasimplicity Tennis
Ultrasimplicity Tennis is a type of tennis that involves incredibly strict restrictions placed on what is allowed to be done.
Rules
- No plugins (or any video or audio effects for that matter) could be used of any kind, similar to NoPlug
- Videos could not be reversed, panned or cropped, sped up or slowed down
- Transitioning, fading, and layering videos are also not allowed
- Videos can only be quantized to frames, thus non-quantized techniques such as hyperstuttering are not allowed.
- Unlinking video and audio and editing them separately is allowed.
History
The concept was initially thought of by ClassicBirch before the idea was expanded upon into a match with mrdoognoog. The style was largely response to the increasingly complex technical nature that modern tennis had become. Initially, the idea was to create a tennis format similar to the Simplicity Collabs, however it eventually ended up going even further with the restrictions to test the limits on what was possible. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLApT4ypNEuw20Q7WYChAq2GmYjWeivnXi
Later on, a Russian collab in the format was completed.
