My newest movie, slightly longer than some others. I hope you all like it, because in the process of making this movie several 'glitches' have found me discoed in Ar-234s and 262s, so this movie really cost me all but a few points in all categories 'cept GV

Here ya go:

Final Front

I like more the dramatic feel than the constant-shooters. Most of my movies are rather slow paced.

Reynolds, I like the idea of what you are going for. Your formation flying is improving greatly in your films. AR234s aren't easy to fly in formation while leveled. You showed scenes where you dropped bombs, try to show the effects of your bombs hitting. Tell us a story, give us a reason to want to watch your film.

Yeah, id put them in there, but that was my first movie with the new Movie Maker adition, so im still getting used to those effects. I am working on a new one, another B-17 movie, so Ill try to get those things on that.

Reynolds, I completly Disagree with the others. I loved your film, and I loved the way that the shots were taken. Great flying, and I think the music suits it well. Very passionate music, which suits the idea of the final stand! A very big and Hearty ~~And im so impressed, i might go and watch it again!~~

Thank you sir!

And so you all know, I just turned my textures up to 512, so my movies will be better picture quality, but there might be some warping, as I am now going slower than a dead slug.

I can see where your headed with the film Reynolds...

I like the song (from enterprise IIRC ?) but If your film is not full of action you need to (like Kermit said), Tell a story... ( or in this case a bit more of the story)

Over all I think its a good effort It could use some polishing, but I can see a lot of potential in it...

One thing I would suggest is try using the chase view and adjust you distance slider all the way out and the zoom slider all the way in, this will allow you to get some interesting views...

Also if your in the chase view, try stopping the AH film viewer, looking back (use F8 to hold the view facing the rear), the view will catch up with the plane, once this happens starting you recorder (fraps ?) and then start the AH film viewer. You will get a nice smooth pass of your plane as it flys past the chase camera. Try it and you will see what I mean.

Later

~~Chase view never works for me, because even with zoom at max, my plane outruns the camera by far, especially considering those Ar's and Me-262s were averaging at least 450mph~~
