Title: Posted in wrong place first time
Post by: L0nGb0w on February 12, 2010, 01:33:14 AM
Made this in my free time the past few weeks, first video after watching Mr.Kiefer's instructional film on how to make AH movies, I know I need some more practice to make it better but I'd like to know what you think.  :salute

I finally watched it and I liked it!
Is it your first video? if so very well done.  There are a couple of shots that were a bit difficult to capture but you did well.

I can give you just a hint: for a better camera shots' quality try to not use the external camera and the arrow keys to move the view while capturing. IMHO it takes away the "reality" part and puts in a lot of "game flavour".

By myself I also found the world pointing camera is really cool once you learn well how to use it.

The video is nice Sir.  :aok :aok

I've tried to make one once before, but was just guessing as to how to do everything.  This is the first I've made since learning how to set up shots in the film viewer and record them in high quality.

Not a fan of that download host, but I finally got the file.

Not bad for a start. I would suggest getting rid of the "letterbox" black bars top and bottom. You can either crop the final product so that it doesn't show, or change the "lock aspect ratio" property on the footage you took from FRAPs when you edit it.

Although, I can't recall if you want to lock the ratio or unlock it... one or the other, whatever your editing software is doing, toggle it to the other. That should get rid of the bars.

I'm wanting to get back into this, would like to know of a better site to host my files though, mediafire lets me upload the video and then deletes it because it has copyrighted music on it.
