i put this together out of some film bits here and there, really just to play with some grafics, let me know what you think, i was trying to get clear close ups and interesting backgrounds.
It's put together with fraps and windows movie maker, i have adobe also but i'm not used to it yet.

6:04 is not a short film ;)
I liked it but... it just dragged on. Only two kills (which looked like afk kills). It just wasn't very entertaining, and the rest was just flying home...
I did notice your sounds... You can actually place the P-51 sounds from the game into your films, instead of decreasing the sound you used for the engine off sound. It's in your AH folder. That way sounds go with your film.
You may have made the movie just to play around, so take this as constuctive critisim, I'm not hating at all. It takes much time to make these, and trust me; I know. :aok
p.s. Do you use your hat switch on the joystick to move your camera angles? Mine doesn't work in the FV... :confused:

What graphics were you trying to do? The text graphics?
You already know you are limited with Windows Movie Maker, so I'll assume you'll have better video editing later. You got a few interesting background shots and some clear close up shots. I feel like you didn't get much though. For 6 minutes, I'd hope for more interesting shots. It felt repetitive and static at times. Maybe it was a filming theme of yours, but it was overall uneventful, filming wise. I'm not even talking about the story either.
Nice practice clips.

No, my stick is inop in film veiwer, i was really just playin with graphics,thats why i said there is no substance to the film, those actually were the engine cut off's from the film as was the take off, i didn't much like them either i guess it was the angle i taped them from that wasn't so hot, but i did the film editing wed night and put the music on last night, i was looking for feedback on the graphic and the veiws, really.

well, i have been playing with Skuzzys new camara shot add on, maybe i just don't get it but i'm having a real hard time useing it, so i don't.
the film, as a film is just bits and peaces, better then just an open shot here and one there, the take off and the landing was really what i was testing.
I have adobe premiere, but i haven't learned to use it yet, it's very complicated to me as i am not really a computer guy.
But thanks for the comments, i will put them to use:aok
