If you’re a mom, playing DB and doing these things for your kids. You have the utmost mom points from me. My mom wouldn’t do something like that for me ever. If you’re a dad, you have slightly less, but you’re still amazing. If I ever figure out a way to get extra copies of their stuff, I’ll send some over your way. Such as Humble Bundle codes, or the starter packs. I keep getting extra starter packs that I won’t use from the Humble Bundle stuff…

Can I get feedback on what would’ve made my video better?

(The_N00Ba) #18

maybe it needed more cowbell…? :slight_smile:

@HonourBound
In all seriousness…

I like how you matched the footage and transitions to the music as much as possible. The little comical additions to the video itself were rather amusing. The kills themselves were a blast to watch.

I personally would recommend thinking about the length and what you want people to remember the most from the video.
Maybe consider gathering more footage of 4-5+ kill streaks next time
maybe include some more melee and defib action

I took a video art class and understand that sometimes you have to work with what you can get. I still think you did a fine job HonourBound. :slight_smile:

So from what I saw, presentation with the merc and stuff is fun but not really dynamic.
Your video is to long for me 3/4 min max is better. Try to make it fun but dynamic.
I mean only quick actions, no 1 kill then run away and after 1 min another kill etc …
I saw a lot of reload compilations during the contest, please dont do vidéo with 1 Frag / cut / 1 Frag / cut / 1 frag / Cut … Nobody will watch it … It’s definitely boring (not for you HonourBound but some I saw here :wink: )

so Quick action (Multi kill, super multi revive, amazing tricks jump, funny stuff) > Next quick action. Don’t spend to much time on your editing, keep the video fresh, fun and dynamic. And if you do some stuff like your mercs presentation make it quicker and more dynamic.

For my videos I spend maybe 30 min for each, just using shadow play in shadow mode (2 min / 60FPS / High quality) and when there is a fun action I record it. Easier to check your rushs. Drop it into your video software cut the part you don’t want, add a music, a little bit of Magic bullet looks, a Title and it’s done ! :stuck_out_tongue: Video is my work so I don’t want to spend to much time on my work tools during my free time.
