My Trailer
« on: April 27, 2008, 09:45:34 am »
Version 1

Version 2
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtIo4_nrOS8

Version 3
http://youtube.com/watch?v=MOb85JhpH7g

to do:
- sound effects to 'emphasize' text.
- need to make the free part more interesting...  ???
- try out different footage (particularly for CTF and INF)
- extend the modability section a little more. Film the veggie mod without bullet time (or whatever it's called)
- add something about community

... @ "Play against intelligent AI"

Oh right, constructive criticism. And if I were you, I'd stick to one music track throughout the entire piece. The fade between BS and Gore sounds ... meh. Oh, and the still images when zoomed in kind of slows the trailer down. Nice job altogether, but it needs a fair bit of polishing.

hehehe. I put the bots in there because on the homepage it is listed as an 'important feature'.

Quote
Most important features:

    * It's free to play
    * Game environment based on real physics rules
    * Over 18 weapons available:
      - guns like MP5, Ak-74, M79, M249 Minimi, Barret M82A1, XM214 Minigun
    * Multiplayer network game over the Internet or LAN
    * Intelligent bots

I've also been thinking about scrapping/redoing the whole beginning part. No ideas though.  ???
And I've already set the bg music to one track for the next version. Thanks.

Just say "intelligent bots" then, because as of now you have "intelligent artificial intelligence"

well, I like your entry (ver.3) more then others available for now but there is still lot of work to do:
- using soldat music is good idea but if you want to use two of them the transition from first to second must be better

-shirts are not ok, if you want them in your trailer make them fly around screen or something. (without any notes- if I see them I know I can buy 'em ;d )

-you didn't mention about community and I think it's the most important 'feature' ;)

-trailer is dynamic but we all know it- more action=better trailer ;d so it would be great if you include even more quick shots and action

-it's only one minute long, I think 1:30 would be the perfect trailer

-feature 'notes' should be more exposed, maybe animated or coming out of screen?

-think of something for ending

Mind changing your tags to something more appropriate than "horny"?  You might consider something like "soldat" "michal" "marcinkowski" "trailer" "contest" "soldatforums"

It didn't exactly look good for me to pop open your trailer at work while I was taking a break and have all of the related videos be inappropriate things

Agreed; my mother is pissed at you.

I found the "but you can buy a t shirt" part hilarious. Keep it.

Perhaps you could do some more interesting kills.

Is there no sound, or am I just not hearing it for some reason?

1) Yeah, I have no idea what to do. I'm not even a good video editor to begin with. :(
2) I don't want to just say, "Helpful Community" or "Engaged Community". I want something to back it up. Originally I was going to put something along the lines of a well developed IRC community, and include the Nordic Bots poll. But the link is dead. =\
3) Ok.
4) Yeah, a better entry and exit.. but nothing in between, right?
5) Yup.

My video is probably sucking compared to the others who are working on them privately. meh.

You can say organised community, and list some statistics ( 100+ established clans, 2+ active leagues, around six thousand players already ).

It needs more. I wish we had a list of the contestants so I can know the expectations and look forward to the entries.

Yeah, I'm surprised no one else has posted up their attempts..

Bond is doing a good job though... His 3rd attempt was tenfolds better than his 1st. Keep it up!
