Presenting our latest ViceCity-vid: Twos Tale.
Pep and myself have been knocking ourselves out trying to push the limits on todays VC-stunting. While looking forward to SA, i still regret discovering the possibilities of stunting in VC this late.
For so much is done already by others, and that has been our greatest threat... and motivation.
Cred's to Pep for the initiative of the vid and for introducing me to a world of dizzyness.

That was absolutely the most staggeringly good video I have ever seen. Ever. I loved the almost complete lack of BSMs. Everything was good. I can't believe I've never heard of you guys. Amazing. The editing was top notch. I loved the effect you had on the clips it made everything seem oh-so-proffessional. The camera angles were just great. I loved the music. Wonderful wonderful vid.
10/10
-
:grin: Well well well....
editing: 10/10 wow amazing editing and rendering settings etc.
stunts: 10/10 loved that wallride to roof you did pep near the hospital near the end of the vid
music: 5/10 meh only reason for that is because it reminded me of the old whipeout game and that game really pissed me off.
intro/outro/credits: 10/10 those effects owned.
well great work :o one of my fav vids fun to watch apart from the music anyways i think this deserves a 10/10
hurry up and make san andreas vids alrdy i wanna see what you do with your videos on that :grin: also do you have any other vids that i could download which are as good as this one ?
-
Thanks for the positive comments on such short notice...
About our stunting-background: I met Pep on some stunt-server before I even knew what a corkscrew was. He had already produced a vid, but sadly(/gladly) cannot anymore represent the level of skill he has developed in the past time. We're hoping to contribute some more vids from SA in the near future.
But that will prove to be a whole different experience....
Keep 'em coming!
-
Well, this sounds like its going to be impressive, D/ling :)
Btw, Welcome dude :D
-
d/ling sounds promising
Hey well done guys i really enjoyed the video. The editing made the video soo special. The synching was spot on and the cross cuts of two or three stunts built great expectation especially with the moped. The sheer cool factor with some well chosen music reminds me of the quake 3 arena vids i sometimes watch. No fuss and really easy to watch. The stunts had some great variety and reminds me of the some of the old school stuntings videos, minimal vehicle assists apart from a packer launch. Credits were sweet. See ya in San Andreas
To all this is a keeper, dont be turned down by the size of it. Also i must know what filter/mod you used to get the effect through out the vid?
-
Dude...your editing style reminds me of Jordan Liles...its just so warm :) 10/10 on everything :grin:
-
Heh The Music Reminds Me Of The Ridge Racer Series For PS1 :P
Great Editing Man, The Video Was Brilliant. Stunts Were Great
12/10 Brilliant, One Of The Nicest Looking Video's Ive Seen In A Wile :)
-
Can you teach me how to edit that well? :bowdown:
-
Nice vid. That wallride at the end was awesome! Good job, guys.
-
Stunts: 10/10 I liked all the stunts, very much
Variety: 9/10 Umm too less grinds
Editing: Infinty/10 The best editing ive seen :D
Quality: 10/10 I liked it, but the old look was a bit annoying though. But worth the download
-
Beautiful looking video.
Editing was very cool.
The stunts were nice (although 70% of them were old)
I liked it. :)
-
Expected more from the stunts.
Expected less from the editing.
Very nice work guys. 8.5/10.
-
That was awesome, it pwns any video I've seen by far. Every bit of it was refreshing and I loved the vibe which flowed out. Excellent work guys, definitely a 10/10 for me in all areas of the video.
-
I must be missing something lol.
-
This new stunters (not the ones in the vid) should see more old videos, so they see how old those stunts were. =/
EDIT: Yey! new page :side:
-
If you're referring to me, suck my dick.
-
If you're referring to me, suck my dick.
lol the hostility.
Anyway I wasn't referring to anyone personally.
-
Nah, that comment wasn't towards you. It was towards the big-headed alien faggot who needs to get his ass back on mars, herher. And anyways, why the fuck would you care what I think about the video? Yeah, I think it owns (regardless if the stunts are new or not). All I have to say in conclusion is suck my motherfucking dick, can't change my opinion bitches.
-
I don't think it was directed at you
-
*Confused*
:P :P :P
-

EDIT: Yey! new page :side:
Amen to that. See how much it has changed and learn stunts that arent bsms and packerbumps
-
lol@ramboy
anyways, it was a great vid although a lot of the stunts were pretty old, I don't see what all the hype is about though, don't get me wrong, its a great vid and especialy since this is the first we've seen from you guys, I just don't see why people are saying its the best vid they have seen.

This is why we all love you, Ramboy! Yes, Ramboy, I'd love to suck your motherfucking dick! Yey!
Fuck you too :D:D
Anyway, DLing :D

No one was ever trying to make you change your opinion and you are just totally taking things the wrong way (as per usual) and too personally, thats why its funny. :lol:
-
Herher, Ghostchild...and ZeroX, I guess so. But it's not always the case, there are haters here mang. I respect you, and very few of the other guys here. And I apologize for fucking up this thread like a complete idiot.
So let's take it back to my first post, great video you guys 10/10.
-
3 cheers... Hip hip HORAY and other various celebratory practices.
-
Well fellas. Lets just forget about the bickering and shift the topic back to these boys vid :)

Done and done.

DLing :o Looks promising

Wow, shit! Who are you? Your great editors! Great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great video!! 9.5/10!!!

-
Fucking insane, i loved it. 10/10. GREAT EDITING AND INSANE STUNTS !
-
WOW :o
Stunts 10/10 - Very cool trickin' !
Editing 10/10 - Awesome
Music 7/10 - naw
Overall 10/10 AMAZING! :o Very high polevaults.
-
Watched this just as it was released..great vid guys, some really cool stunts and great variety..The editing though was fucking superb, it was just like, the best ever!! Music was cool because it fit the editing nicely and was kinda cool anyhow..Great vid guys, one of the best to date.
-
Not to be rude or harsh... but i don't see the huge deal with the stunts...
thats just me tho
-
There was so many of them..they had some great ideas...they didn't use barely any aid like packers or PCJs for BSM's, there stunts were all pretty cool..they had a lot of nice original stunts and they fitted with the editing great.
They you are Barney, thats why :P
-
Teh stunts remembered me, my first stunting days. I made sick polevaults sometimes B) Stunts were great!
-
You guys have to be some old members who has registered with a new nick :P
But the editing was flawless, i love your AE skills :)
Not my kinda music but it worked with the vid :)
-
I noticed that vid had a bit strange colour :blink:
-
To be honest, I didn't saw anything really stunning in the editing except intro that was great but too complex. Editing was good but not the best. As for the stunts, some were really great but there was a huge amount of fillers.
So I can't say that this vid is one of the best. Sorry if I'm very harsh but it's my opinion.
-
Stunts: 7/10 , Pretty good for a first vid
Music: 8/10 , not the first one, but the second was <3
Editing: 7/10 , Liked it alot, but a few more effects would be good.
Intro, Outro: 10/10, in a well shape.
Overall: 7.8/10 - Very good.
-
WTF Ramboy?.....stop being a self centered idiot ok, i wasn't talking about or to you mutha fucker! so shut the fuck up, you fucking punk. I love you :wub:
Now that i got that out of the way.....
What i meant was that the video has a ton of old stunts in it and many of the people posting don't seem to recognize that fact, and if they did the vid will be getting rated lower. That's all I'll say in the matter, but the video is nice.
-
Nitz: Not necessarily true..i rate videos on the quality of stunts not whether there new or not.
-
So if i do a whole bunch of old stunts in a video, but which are "good" and put some nice editing behind it, it works?
tell me cause i'll do it right now.....lol
omni if no one cared to put original stuff in their videos then the videos will be all the same. Everyone doing the same roofs, same bsms same grinds and so on. So originality counts a lot in my book. But they also have to be very nice stunts.(This is what i look for in a video)
Still, I liked this video.
EDIT: omg when am I gonna stop making pages :side:
-
Nitzkit is an Allmighty King Of New Pages A.K.O.N.P ! :D
-
dling
very very very Top Notch vid
lotta fillers
loved both wall rides
no AGs
not many grinds
all was great
keep up the good work
stunts: 10/10
music: 7/10 meh, techno type music screws a vid over
editing: 13/10 better than all the awesome editors :saywhat:
-
This is one super dooper original video! :o Its original.. totally unique and one of the most entertaining videos i have seen to date.. because of the lack of BSM's.. it makes this video stand out.. :o
It shows you what can still be done without BSM's and help of other vehicles.. Props to you guys man.. The music was ownage too.. Really bassy if you've got a good sound system.. i knew it was the Chemical Brothers.. lol..
Stunts: 10/10 (although just a little bit of fillers, the other amazing stunts make up for it :P )
Music: 10/10 it just blended it so nicely.. *cough* chemical bros fan *cough*
Editing: 1000/10 CRAZY ASS EDITING.. you're not normal.. :saywhat:
Intro/Outro: Nice and simple.. really professional editors man.. :bowdown:
Bottom line: One of the best vids i've seen.. :o B)
-
see what i mean....
-
Seriously whats so great about the editing, I thought the intro and outro was cool, but the main body of the video was hardly edited at all, it looked like all the stunts had just been whacked together.
-
I think that's just as a good stunt video should be. There shouldn't be too many effects and shit in the main body, casue it just makes the video kinda be about the effects and not the stunts.. They could maybe have used some more flashes or like do replay of some stunts though.
-
On the editing, if Hagz (and no offence intended, dont go ramboy on me :P) wasnt already selected id want these guys for the community vid. But yeah its an enjoyable vid:
The best possible outcome: Get them into ATS or ZS as part time stunters and full time editors dammit
My opinion
-
101mb
Nooooooooooooo :P
I'll try to download it sometime, I like what people have said about the vid so far. :)
-
Yeah, what's so "AWSOME" with the editing? It's just the outro and Intro IMO that is cool.

My opinion
Eh? I can't still understand what's so good with the editing...
-
The editing was spot on. Use of a techno song is something very few people do, and even fewer people do right. You managed to use techno music in an efficient way with your editing skills. Not to mention the slight tweaks here and there of speed/etc... that just felt "right" with the video. I mean you managed to take a very slow grind and make it bearable (which no one does) with the swapping of clips from other stunts. It helped to build up a "what's he going to do now?" vibe. Not to mention how crisp the image was from the video, and the look of it just had (as someone else said) a "warm" feel too it.
Stunts were very good. Especially since you've manged to use a hell of alot of natural terrain to get them. It's very very rare you see a good video that hasn't been slathered in *SM's or packers. And for that alone I can hold this video up there as one of the best. Especially given the fact the stunting community put's so much emphasis on using the techniques that are newest, or new.
I for one don't feel that a stunt video has to be current with the stunts some deem to be the only acceptable ones. Time frame or not, this video was great.
10/10
-

I use natural terrain, have you even seen any of my vids?
I liked this vid a lot, it did have some "pointless" spins that have always been done (the one near Sunshine autos) but I don't mind those. The intro was like a motion picture, very nice. Stunts were good, even though some were kinda old. Music fit the vid, engine revs *vroom* I really liked the fact you didn't rely on bsm's and packers too much or getting super high roofs, very good style. Editing was nice, you cut on the beat, and syched it really nicely. Even that orange tint thingy just fit the vid so much and pulled it together nicely. but some of the camera angle annoyed me cause you couldn't see the setup, like the hospital roof near the mall...I couldn't see how you hit the ledge, and I would've liked to. Credits were nice but too many things were happening in them, like the titles and then some faded clips and I couldn't concentrate on one so I think I need to watch them again. I liked the outro where you are going to SA but...are really gonna not stunt VC anymore...it still has potential... you dug your own grave with that (maybe).
I liked this vid it had some flaws but some strong points too, well done. :grin:
-
I like it alot, reminded me of the old days. Yeah, lots of stuff was old, but some stuff was just wow, like the bump through the glass at construction site. Sick. Music is a matter of taste, but i think if you guys used a song with more variety, you could do some interesting stuff editing wise. Sucks that you guys got into VC a little late, but honestly i feel that VC stunting isn't gonna die anytime soon, SA is well .................SA\
Loved the vid :D
-
It shows you what can still be done without BSM's and help of other vehicles..
What still can be done ? most of the stunts they did where pretty old and where done long ago with out the bsms and other shit maby one or 2 was new thats about it.
as for marklund i dont think this vid was a first.
and the only reason i liked this video was because of one or two stunts and the editing.
yes the editing.... the intro was pretty cool over the top a little though the outro was nicely done and the editing of the stunts and the way it went with the music was good also it was nice to see you didnt use the usual seizure flash effect everyone seems to use :lol: which is good for a change :side: .
anyways erm.....
goodbye
bring on the new page :D
-
People keep saying how the editing wasn't so great..the intro and intro were great and if you actually notice, almost EVERY stunt has a synch with the beat, whether it be the transition, the actual bump or the landing. I think that is the reason people enjoyed the editing so much..IMO it made it great.
-
Well, don't see this as an excuse list for all critisism you guys posted the last hours...
Anyway, I wanna thank all peeps who gave their opinion: we will certainly keep them in mind.
3 subjects:
- The Editing:
I can be short about this. ALL CRED'S TO PEP. He is the one with the ideas and the technology. I already invited him over so an answer on related questions will appear soon enough.
- The Music:
(KRRRRRK, stepping on some toes prob.)
I (=me, myself, personal opinion, freedom of speech, whatever)
hated the fact that 99% of Stunt-vids are accompanied by TERRIBLE rock music. We just wanted to do a vid wich would suit OUR musical needs. For the intro/outro I used my own creations and I like the result. Wether or not you like it is in this case a completely relative issue.
- The Stuntin:
As discribed in the main post, I mention all stunters that have posted vid's before. All crews inspired us, but also chased us. A few times our spots came up in, for example, the new ATS-vid. Then those spots/stunts were 'done'.
But to know if something is 'done', you have to see it being done by others.. I admit, some spots were stunted while we knew they were 'done' before. But that only goes for about 2 stunts in each part.
By the making of the vid about 80% was completely new to us. (Hey, corkcrew to stoppie, massive wallride anyone????)
We also discussed the use of bikes or other 'bump-enhancers' to mount every building. They were used, but not as often as in nowadays-vid's. For the simple reason that, nomatter where it is placed, it's still the same stunt: Bumping the pcj, mounting the building. And that is (set aside from the difficulty-level) a bit LAME.
Again, this is not an excuse-list. And I will not tell people to give me oral pleasure because they don't share my view. We did the best we could, and frankly all this fan-/hatemail really motivates me to make another, even better (VC-) vid.
As for 'digging our own graves' by 'leaving' Vice-City @ the end of the vid, two words: GAME OVER. (And a boat CAN turn around you know) nuff said.
<Discussion Reopened>

Its not about the effects man.. or how much cool stuff u can put in.. its how the whole video comes out and turns out.. really awesome editing doesn't have to have too much flowery stuff and effects.. And this vid.. as i said in my earlier post.. simple yet very very professional looking.. if u get what i mean guys.. :)
Who else agrees?
-
to each their own then.
-
massive wallride anyone????
Barney, me

Hehe...you got me, but I still don't get why so many people "claim" so much in a vid, Game Over they all killed themselves... :huh: and then in Carnage 2 Barney said it was gonna be his last vid, and then this one said you were going to SA, why don't/didn't you guys just not say that stuff, you never know what will happen.
I'm gonna get burned by this aren't I?

THANK GOD someone said that. I see no difference between doing like 20 *SM's in a video, as opposed to doing stunts hardly anyone puts in a video now that were all the rage like 2 years ago. Retrospective, Roots, call it what you will.

Who else agrees?
I seriously agree with that 100%
-
lol @ this
Even if people do a BSM or a PSM or whatever, they are usually still new and not something we have seen billions of times.
Lame? lol ok whatever you say, but atleast the stunts are new rather than something that has been done, over and over and over again.
Sorry but I'd take a vid with new shit, whether it be BSM or Packer Bumps then a video with shit that has been done by so many people so long ago.
-
I couldn't care less about people's (Hagz') view on originality concerning BSM's. (not saying i don't hear ya)
But a vid has to be entertaining... and it has brought me 5 pages of entertainment already...
@ Hagz: hope to blow your mind away next time m8, sorry we couldn't please ya.
-
lol I never said the vid wasn't good or I wasn't pleased. I just didn't get how everyone was like making it sound like it was the best video ever made lol.
-
I thought the vid was spectacular. Sure there were old stunts and all, but the new ones (to me atleast) completely made up for the old ones and the fillers. The real reason this vid was amazing is because of the editing. And I can't see how people didn't think it was great. Nearly every stunt synched, and there were no flashes or filter changes to excentuate it. The subtle synching (like when pep was grinding the firehouse rail and the music was going "tatatatatatata" then he landed when that part ended. Those kinda things are what make a vid enjoyable. If you're just looking for big effects like the tv scan lines or bluring or whatever you're totally over looking the real fun of the vids. The synching.
-
lolz. Maybe it was me, but syncing seemed WAY off in one part.
-
It wasn't just you man, many parts weren't synched good.
And all this crap about BSMs and stuff taking up too many stunts in videos? Please don't get me started on how many pole/wall vaults there were in this vid...
-
Well naturally. The synching can't be all on all the time. Unless you're a god or something.
-
Lots of videos have been synced perfectly. ;)
-
You can slow down your video while editing it to make sure of synchs, not hard at all.
-
very amazing, i love the intro, the stunts were wonderful, very smooth, this has been 1 of the greatest videos iv seen, good job guys
-
I must still be missing something LOL
-
^same here
-
You're not missing something. Its a matter of taste and opinion, which you've stated repeatedly. lol........still love the vid
-
Nice vid. That wallride at the end was awesome! Good job, guys.
Just a reminder^^
-
omg is this still going on...lol
Come ON!
Some people loved it, some liked it, some said boooo, some hated it, and shit like that. happens with every vid. Move on.
-
fairly good, not much amazed me, i give it 6/10
-
i don't comment on VC vids very often because i'm not much of a VC stunter, but...
i agree that the editing was great. i particularly liked many of the camera angles used. also, the technical flare of it overall was impressive. my only complaint is the hazy look of the vid. it reminds me of Xbox vids.
as for the stunts, i can appreciate the difficulty new VC stunters face when coming up with new stunts and knowing ahead of time if a stunt they are working on is new or not, because that's exactly what i have to go through when i take a crack at VC stunting now and then. watching past VC vids in order to see what's been done already is a very daunting task considering how many VC vids have been made over the last couple years. on the other hand, i'm inclined to agree with nizzle and others about the rehashing of old stunts. this is something i have a feeling is going to be a problem in SA, as many new SA stunters will be emerging now that the PC version is here and we'll be seeing many stunts that have already been used in vids by myself, gotups, and other veteran SA stunters. for people who complain about the excessive use of BSMs, packers, etc, in today's vids... that's what it takes to produce completely original stunts these days. how many completely original stunts have we seen in the last 6 months that didn't use a prop? "purist" stunts are always great, but using props creates countless new opportunities.
i try not to comment on music used in stunt vids, because it's all a matter of personal taste. unless of course the song is completely out of place in a stunt vid (if anyone ever puts yodeling in a stunt vid...may god have mercy on your soul).
-
*Makes note to use a yodeling song for community video*

Jesus christ. So what if you think your missing something, grow up and move along. God. Everytime someone posts something they liked you gotta go "rofl this suxorz, i don't get it." I think you drilled your point into the ground effectively enough by now. We get it, you think that because it's not filled with *SMs it's utter shit.
Someone brings something interesting to the table, and people like you have to shit all over it, then cover your ass with a half assed blandishment about some good quality it "might" have, then of course you back track over that statement with more criticism.
Just abnegate your opinion hence forth, if all it's going to be is the same bullshit over and over.
-
cyrix... not sure if you're talking to me or someone else, but i was just sharing my observations, and thoughts on "new vs old" stunts. regardless of what impression i may have given i still think this was a good vid. :)

rofl this suxorz, i don't get it.
And Buzzsaw about the comment you made about PC stunters going to re use what you guys have already done it would most likely not be on purpose seeing as I haven't even watched a SA stunt video really. Im sure alot of people haven't watched SA vids.
-
No buzzsaw, that wasn't directed at you man.

Anyway my bad if I have started too much controversy here, I will not say nothing more about the vid or me "missing something", was just acting stupid.
Sorry for the drama, I will leave now :P

i know it wouldn't be on purpose. but there aren't very many SA vids compared to the hundreds of VC vids, and i strongly encourage you (everyone) to watch them. not only are some of them pretty good, but knowing what's been done will help people make better vids. juan, gotups, and myself have our vids listed in our sigs, and you can find the others in the SA vids forum (obviously :P). personally, i think it's a little hypocritical for VC stunters to say "watch old vids to see what's already been done" and then not watch the SA vids when they transition to SA stunting so that they can avoid putting old stunts in vids. i'm not bitching or referring to anyone in particular, this is just a general statement. :)
anyways, i don't want to turn this into a thread about SA. sorry if i've derailed this thread. :unsure:

Ok, just read through all this, so now I'm D/L ing and gonna throw MY 2 cents worth into the fire.
Edit: Well I gotta say that was a friggin sweet ass vid dudes :grin:
Some of those stunts were truely awesome. Granted most were what
everyone has been callin "old" or "done many times before" but still
it was refreshing, atleast to an old timer like myself. You had some damn nice effects in there and the editing was truely very good.
The choice for music was a great idea. It worked so well with the vid.
I really enjoyed this and WILL keep it. Great job!
Stunts 8/10
Editing 9.5/10
Music 9.5/10
Can't wait to see more from you guys

I would Buzzsaw but I personally hate watching PS2 vids :P
-
I just have to say this, don't know why though, so please nobody get offended... I don't have to watch any of those SA vids because all the stunts suck, and I am positive that I would not repeat them...end stupid joke.

What he said.
-
*shrug* well, i guess you guys won't know what's been done before then. a good stunt is a good stunt, whether it's done on PS2 or PC. anyways...

OMG 7 pages :o

Aahhh Dreams, dreams ....

Comments greatly appreciated.
Vid has been submitted to VRC awaiting its verdict....
-
i wish to make a further comment about this vid....imo it has sparked alot of discussion in the community...check the page no :) no one has said it is crap but good work at least on getting some people talkin hehe
-
Ok I watched the vid again, especially the creds cause it's hard for me to concentrate on all the things, and then I got confued with this one part...." Aspirine, A lovely day, default handling, and glue free" are you saying it was free from (didn't have) those cheats and it's default handling and glue, or something, clear this up for me, please?
-
@ Kr3mlin: Didn't expect this at the time I wrote the topic description.
Well, as good as any topic to outlet some disagreements. 'The more talk, the more understanding"...(hopefully)
@ Finallight: no glue ment we didnt use any mods/trainers to enhance the handling of vehicles, aswell as enhancements for landing big airs. We also didn't edit f.e. handling.cfg.
<edit> cheats used: aspirine and alovelyday
-
Ok, I get it now, thank you.
-
Nice vid. That wallride at the end was awesome! Good job, guys.
Just a reminder^^
And what? I still think that this vid is good I just don't get why is it must be the best.
-
Christ, get over it. I thought this was already dealt with, let people have their own opinions regardless if you disagree or not.
-
Well, I certainly enjoyed this video. It's a relief to see a video like this where there aren't so many BSM's and stuff. I personally don't like them. And if you don't agree with my opinion then deal with it. I don't expect to be flamed for stating my opinion about something I like or dislike...especially on THESE forums. I thought that you guys wouldn't jump down each other's throats just because your opinions differed, but maybe I expected too much. You all deserve a time-out :P. Anywho...everything was great. One of my favorite stunt videos.
10/10

Something else, I thought the stunts in the credits were alot better than some in the actual video. Granted they were like fluke stunts, but they were still fucking cool
-
1st soz for the lengthy post im feeling chatty :)
Guys, thanks for all the comments bad or good thats ok, me.. im
gonna be feeling pos karma all day now. Much of the focus has been
on the editing, lets hear about the intro outro tracks by Nagual
i know he put in some extra extra overtime getting the intro done
could/read: have listened to outro many times over now all props
for that as not many vids get there own composer.
To answer recurring q's re: efx
@kr3mlin
The goal of warming efx were created with a combo of filters
similar to inspiring films like The Matrix used colour for ambiance.
The crunch of effects were:
2 different color gradients
Diffusion + additional blurring
Temperature correction
Contrast enhancement
Done in 16bit colorspace to combat the banding artifacts seen in the skyline
WMV compressor had other ideas regarding how the vid should
look though, some overly enthusiastic whites and
re-introduction of the nasty banding resurfaced although
quality is better than xvid imho.
Future vids ill prolly toy about with mp4 now that Apples
beautiful compressor is aval for us PC users.
@Calcos
Some things:
you may want to use transition efx a good idea is keep each
reps original duration intact and cascade layers.
Whilst doing the clip timeline hide stuff not required with
selection tool (trim).
for faster previews render any speed changed clips, drop'em
back into the main comp on a new layer overlapping the orig.
(disable original just incase).
1. do your synching
2. play with clip speed if called for (frame blending is nice)
3. render preview
4. repeat 1-3 until satisfied
Efx
Avoid speed problems (things can look great playing @5fps
but suky realtime)
Use a short clip for creation/testing and render for realtime previews.
This project used premiere for the main clip sync/positioning
/speed changes then aftereffects for the our errr efx :P then
back to premiere for final.
Overall... pass tests over to mates for feedback, have a long
break then come back with a fresh perspective.
Ill be saving this topic as it seams fitting to keep the thoughts
and criticisims for the next big adventure wherever that might
take us.

Wow! Nice post dude. Thanks for the info. The ambient look did remind me of The Matrix
The intro music i reckon was sweet the outro didnt do it for me but 1/2 there is better than what i can do
-
damn nice vid. excellent editing, good job :grin:
-
I <3 this vid
-
I'll give someone 60k to make me a low res and send it over MSN. :)
-
This is what a stunt video should be like. Great job and can't wait to see more.
-
awesome vid....cool stoppies...
-
Outstanding vid - it just differs from what i got accostomed to see in the stunt video.
Stunts - great variety - some awsome wallrides and other stuff - 10/10 though some old stunts were there too
Music - not actually my taste but went good with the vid - 9/10
Editing - awsome - 10/10
overall - 9.7/10 - one of the best original vids for half of the year. :)
-
Wow the editing was sweet, as far as the stunts they were great too.
This is a very different vid and i hope to see more!:D
-
Wooooeeeeeehhhhhhhh, I felt the ground shake. It must have been this bigass bump. I might as well comment too, since i never did. Awsome editing. theres vids that dont have kickass stunts but you just enjoy watching them this is one of them.
-
They took a theme and ran with it all the way.
This is still in my top 10. I love it.
-
Looks like i gotta watch this then.... DLing......
-
Very nice. This is one of the videos that really remind me how Vice City just doesn't seem to get old. Which is pretty ironic, considering the path the ending was going...
-
Extremely well done vid. It was put together beautifully. Nice effects and cam angles. Saw a couple cool stunts in there too. Great job 9/10
-
d/ling
-
Its amazing what a late bump can do to a topic....this came out in June :P
-
I've seen it before, in june when it was posted. Best stunt of the vid is wallride in minute 6:58, is fantastic.
-
Downloading now...
Better late than never ;)
-
Thanks for the comments guys!
And thanks to radioaktive for the massive bump! B)
-
Watched it, a few alright stunts but a good few were meh...still, it's an OLD vid. I enjoyed watching it. Not bad at all...
-
I bump this in my vid collection at least once a week before stunting
-
d/ling
-
nice vid, alot of easy stuff, but some very nice wallrides. The way the vid was made is great. Cool editing, the music was weird(not my taste) but it worked out nicely. Good job. ;)
-
dloading
soz i thought it was already bumped but i pressed it out of his sig, my bad :huh:
-
Don't bump old topics :nono:
-
Oh gawd...:nono:
-
As the other guys said, don't bump old topics. That's the golden rule - watch the dates before posting!
Still, it's a good vid and I'm not locking this thread.

NP to lock it if another bump occurs.
If people want to comment on the vid, plz pm me and/or Pep.
Though I doubt he will read it.
If you do, plz post other comments than 'downloading' <_< .
Thanks
