UFO Video, real thing? (really cool )
« Reply #30 on: February 02, 2003, 08:30:33 PM »
Another thing...

What does the guy with the camera do when the UFO stops in front of the helo? Zooming in as every mortal who has ever used a video camera would do? No, he zooms OUT... :rolleyes: Yeah, it could be that he is searching the perfect plane, or he missed the correct button, or wathever, but in this context, it's somewhat suspicious ;).

BTW, I'm using the QuickTime version of the video; you can view it frame by frame, play it forward, backward, slow motion... it shows some details that can't be seen in normal play mode.

1. Smoke floating next to the helicopter? No downdraught from the rotors then?

2. Smoke looks almost exactly like smoke generated using 3DS Max.

Pot smoke! Maybe that's it? Maybe it's them two aliens from that movie, whats that again......'Heavy Metal'. Maybe they flew over a forest fire in Colombia..?

people have seen too many 50's style ufo movies..the idea of the 'saucer' ship is so imbedded in the psyche of the masses that that is all we think of when we say 'ufo'..the same with the idea of the 'greys' with their big black eyes and huge heads.. just once I'd like to see a ufo fake movie that has a decent looking craft.

heh. ... if you watch the slow motion one, you'll notice a really bad edit of spacial and positioning relationships. The 'ufo' is really large on one side of the cockpit frame, then when they pan over as it zooms away, it is a bit higher in the frame and much much smaller to really flow smoothly from the size that is was on the left side of the cockpit frame.

Acutally, you can see the "ufo" travel between the towers right after the lady in front gets her damn head out of the way.  I was watching the quicktime version so I didn't have any sound for some reason.


Very weird...
