Hunt or Prey - A P47 6min Movie by Lepape2
« on: August 30, 2010, 04:25:06 PM »
Hi folks,

I promised myself that before I don't have time to stay addicted to this game anymore, I would finally video share this project to the community. Its about the P47 and the dogfights hence associated with only the fiercest of pilots who fly them.

Here it is:

Hunt or Prey YouTube link stream
Note: If your computer can't handle HD, click the fullscreen button (bottom right) of the video player, this should take care of the problem.
DVD Videosoft link (to download & convert YouTube videos)

I took the time this week-end to record and edit this whole mess. I made other videos in the past, just not about this game.

Enjoy!  :salute

PS: there is a couple of minor tech problems here and there but everything looks sharp enough for my taste.

Hot damn! Outstanding gunnery. I might also add that I like the way you exploit the jug's ability to dump E and saddle up on the enemy. Great video!  :salute

Outstanding video!! You must have nice system for those fraps with the head tracker shots. I definitely enjoyed this one!!! I would love to know what your system specs are and what editing software you have used.

Specs:
Motherboard: Asus P5Q-E Pcie 4DDR2 1200
Ram: 4Gb
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4Ghz 1066
Graphix: Ati Radeon 4870 512 Gddr5 Pcie
Windows 7

Assembled it feb 2009.

I recorded everything at 0.5X speed in the film viewer to enhance the framerate and smoothness with Fraps (You can go slower if your computer can't handle it but file size will proportionally increase). I tried using Camtasia Studio for recording at first (to reduce uncompressed video file sizes) but with no conclusive results after hours of tweaking. Sony Vegas was ultimately the video editing software used (lens flares, level control, cropping, panning, audio, etc) and I composited custom images with Photoshop to enhance the colors and overall style. Some annoying glitch frames had to be manually removed and some are still visible in the final product.

Outstanding Lepape.  Though I was rooting for the F4Us the whole time.  Think a few of those you massacred were mine also  :mad:
You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.

Wow Epic is right! Makes you want to take up a Jug. Fantastic shot at 4:20. Even saw a skin of mine in there. :)

Wow!  That is excellent -- both the flying and the marvelous composition of the video.

Outstanding!

Many, many thanks for the work you put into this.  :aok  :salute

Very well done :aok Krusty's P47N 1ST F/S never looked better sure glad I dug that skin up for him to do. Love the low angle shots as well. Going to have to get the Boston out again & get in the training arena once more with you.
