Head to Head matches with comnentary..

I have been considering trying to make some content for youtube where two players record themselves playing a 15|10 rapid game against each other like TheChessCenturion does but we mix the two together so we get the thoughts of both players as they go along.

SadisticTushi has done this a few times with a 10|0 time control and his best ones were against ChessWithAkeem.

The idea is that it will also mirror the concept of "The Master Game", a BBC TV series where two players, generally grandmasters, would play a classic game then later add in their comments as to what they were thinking at the time but made it look like they were thinking them live. Here is an example video:

The most ideal would be to have top players compete, not necessarily Magnus and Hikaru but at least master level chess. However I think it would be entertaining for lower level chess too, so anyone who is interested should let me know.

15|10 is my chosen time control so the players have time to give the running commentary as they play without so much concern on running out of time. Even better would be if we could get some expert to throw in a bit of commentary from time to time about the position.

Anyone interested in participating, please let me know (you can reply to this topic). I would probably ask you to record the video (you can use OBS to do this) but not be streaming it live and not have any music playing. 

It would be good to see how it goes.

looks like this needs a number of replies before it shows up on your list so let me just spam a few replies to get it there

Hello

Ideally 2 games but at the time control the video would be too long so we'd have to make it into 2 videos.

Excellent, I'd have to find you a suitable opponent who is also interested, unless you know of one already.
