I'm not sure video is my game, but I gave it a shot, out of boredom.Various clips from community videos.
Of course Youtube distorts the graphics in compression.

I'd move the first 40 sec to the end.
You will lose 50% with 30 sec of walls of text before you get to the money shots.
Get them hooked with the action, then once they are intrigued and want to know more, then info-dump on them.
$0.02.

They really destroy the quality

Very nice!! :aok

Looks great! Definitely move the words to the end and maybe add some more explosions. Music is good too.

:aok Animl

Thank you for this Animal. Great job! Aces High needs content like this to help attract new players. I agree with other comments about moving the text to the end of the video.
:salute

I did in an edited version, link above.
I’ll prolly put the attack audio back in, just shorter
I recorded a rook horde attack on a base. Very active content.

I did like pointing out the 2 week trial no billing. That’s a good hook for the title card and then I would go right into the most intense action you have for a few seconds and then progress as you did with the rest of the text info at the end and reinforce the week trial. (Sorry for the notes I used to produce radio and website content back in the day)
I am so glad you did this. I have been saving up videos for the same thing but I never have any time to edit them. Maybe when I retire…. in 20 years.
I’m going to share it all over Reddit. Great stuff keep at it!!! :rock

I figure, the best way to represent the game is to put it through the community grinder. There will be small tweaks. I’d really love to get more content made with cinematic. NO ICONS, more vehicles and cockpits. VR is more better. I just went through what content is already out there. Prefer to get it before youtube degrades it. This vid is so much cleaner then before upload. Since many came from youtube the down hill slope started before I got it.

There will be a refined edited version. I just posted it for critiquing before the real edit. Keep the ideas coming. Send me some clips with no icons. :)
-
The FM2 sequence seems to me to have too much dark screen time. Doesn't fit with the other sequences.
-
I could send my raw ah video files but I don’t think I ever have any with icons off unless that’s a setting in the viewer lol
A sequence with icons to show the squadron aspect and call signs would be a good feature to showcase. Maybe even a couple quick cut ins of some in game voice chatter.
Not 200! :rofl

I would not post any vids yet, I'm tweaking.
I thought about both. It also looks more realistic without the icons, more of a movie style. Sometimes you have to trigger imagination without loss of immersion. There's so much I can do with it. I thought about dubbing things in, but I want it to be pure, authentic. Sometimes people cuss in their voices, there are kids and other likes that play. One would want to attract all types.
I'm going to finish 3 versions, from short to long. Maybe we'll vote on which is best. But the current will be deleted and switched. They were just prototypes.
It's amazing how many stunning clips I could not fit into it. Trying to keep the time down as much as possible. That said, it can easily be busted down to 30 seconds, but the intardnet allows me longer times.

Not sure what you are referring to in "FM2". If you're referring to the Wildcat scene I agree. I shortened the dark timing on both ends of it. I'm shortening dark times now. I'm trying to keep with the music beat count between scenes, which changes scene to scene. A smooth flow is absolutely what I'm going for. No creative comments offend me. Something not perfect does. :)

ICONs on and off are a film viewer setting. So if your putting something together with AH films its easy to clear them.

Aces High 3 - Unofficial Promo Video
It's not all my work. Every clip used came from the work of someone in the AH community. I just compiled them into one.
Special thanks to the unknowing Rooks, where I recorded their horde attack on a base from the tower. It provided some great sound recording for the opening and ending shots.
The video has been updated with 3 different endings.
Which one is more better?
1) Aces High 3 - Unofficial Promo - Short Ending (No Text)

Sooo nice!!! :cheers:
The first one but only because you got right to the action… the third one is the best. Move the plane selection screen from the 3rd one about 20 or so seconds in after they see those planes do some super cool stuff.
Cut the title card time in half and repeat it right at the end before the rest of the text.
These are just my opinions…

Thanks, all critiques are welcome.
The problem with your idea, while not bad at all,... I'm moving on to different music genre, it would not fit well among the other two music elements. Loss of immersion. I wanted to start it upbeat, followed by theatrics. That sequence is obviously for the newbies, offering the Free Trial.... kinda like a commercial before the movie. Thats the way I squint my eyes anyway.
The scenes are short movies of a batch of clips. I can interchange those elements in seconds. Pretty much how I would program.

That would be great. What's this Cinematic stuff I read about? Is that a tool or concept? Those videos are killer.
