meh it's 6:59 in the morning I don't feel like wrinting much now, I guess I'll edit later ;P , if u want more details read the readme hahaahah.
Idea was to mantain frag quality while concentrating on the editing, frags only from 1v1/scrims/leagues, mostly local.
I hope you guys enjoy!
PS: Xvid version coming hopefully tomorrow.

x264 ---> http://www.hl2dm-university.com/videos/Unwonted_2.rar
Xvid ---> http://www.hl2dm-university.com/videos/ ... 2_Xvid.rar

EDIT:

RESOLUTION 1280x768
LENGTH 5:24 mins
MOVIESIZE 241 MB
CODEC X264 @ 6100 bitrate
FPS 30

This project started when during a month I played some 1v1s and got some footage I felt I really wanted
to show, so I said "ok lets do a short 1v1 vid concentrating on editing". After starting it, I
found some old footage laying on my folders from CAL 2v2 matches and 1v1s. Apart from that I played
some scrims with my mate and got some more frags (including the ones playing for EC on the warzone
league). That's when I said "meh, lets just do unwonted 2 and include all these frags!"
(main reason why the first part has mostly 1v1 frags ;P )

As said, this video is supposed to surpass my "unwonted" in editing (which still isn't great, but I believe
I made a huge improvement!) while mantaining the frag quality

I hope you enjoy!

(yeah just copy pasted lmao)

Well, this movie was awesome! Editing is really cool! I think 1st HL2DM movie which has such editing! Really nice job Onty!

Everything else was cool too!

I don't understand the frag at 2:30, what killed him, the barrel?... the death notice says grav gun

*edit*

ah ok, you changed the death notices, I don't like the one for physics...well I do, but in that frag it was confusing

2008-09-15 19:36:19

Well this was out of the blue where you getting the time to do this man. Aren't u doin a other vid as well or have u finished the clan vid just have not released it.

Creativity: 8.5/10
Content: 8/10
Editing: 8.9/10
Soundtrack: 8/10
Quality: 10/10

went thro it twice and overall i like it. Intro was good not sure if u used smoothing for the camra but still it came out k. Some more graphics added which is nice to see and that a specific style is keep thro out the vid. Starting sound track it did not like so much not sure why maybe repeats to much. But the others that follow where good but i think it would of been better to use that last track allot more in this since its a quality and could of been used in some unique way. kills where good and was syc to the track. Also like the crossbow shot down the tunnel at lockdown where u can see thro the wall would like to know how to do that.

So I believe u have archived what u went out to do is get some good editing in a frag vid which i must say from recent frag vids has been lacking.

wo0t! just got from school, Xvid version was supposed to be able "RIGHT NOW" but I'm such a dumbass that I compressed it without sound -.- sooo I'll compress now and upload tonight, therefore posting the Xvid link tomorrow morning ^_^

@ Blas: yeah I love them dude, thanks a lot seriously for giving them to me, and thank ahungrymidget for doing them ! <3
@ Jelly: yes rpg went all around the back part, damaged him, and later the barrel finished him off. :]
@ SND: apart from the intial frag in the intro which was source tv, everything else was smoothed. (can't smooth with sctv demos!)
the effect on the xbow shot isn't hard, record exactly the same with r_drawothermodels 2, then mask it (rectangle shape in this case) and overlay it.
any doubts PM me ^_^
and well yeah, I felt the 2 first songs weren't that good too, but I didn't know if I was right thinking that, or it was just the fact of listening them over and over again lol. IMO the 3rd and 4th songs are way better. I wanted to include more "funny" stuff or simultaneous kills, but I just couldn't found the frags! =/
@ Keeper and WT: Thanks for the mirror ! <3
@ everyone else: thanks a lot for the comments, and glad you liked it

about the xhair ... you could try overlaying it... but I should see the size of your xhair to be sure that's gonna look good... maybe your best option is just leaving it like that, as long as every clip has the same crosshair it doesn't matter ^_^
Thanks for the words too! and to everyone else of course

if anyone wants the hud here it is http://files.filefront.com/weaphudrar/; ... einfo.html

made by ahungrymidget aka stinkmyster

all the weaps are transparent except for the little skull hud that he couldn't find, so if anyone finds that little skull file maybe you can make it transparent and upload it.

o-dog

2008-09-17 01:04:03

as long as the crosshair is small then it should be all good, the main point of exporting with a small crosshair is to minimize tearing and compression noise around it during the compression stage. my small white x that I used in my vid had a lot less tearing around it with XVid compression (I used twopass with a 5000 bitrate) than say a default xhair with hud_quickinfo 1 on would have. just make sure the xhair is as small as possible, ideally the size of a dot.

edit: I tried initially exporting and compressing some clips where I was using my regular xhair at the time which was a smallish red square, and when I compressed them, the crosshair was flickering noticeably and had a lot of tearing/compression noise around it. you may want to try compressing some of the clips in question with the codec and bitrate you plan on using for the final video, and see how you like the results before exporting anymore. if you don't like the results you may have to re-export those clips (as I ended up having to do with a lot of mine) with a small dot or something similar.

0nti

2008-09-17 01:51:02

yeah that hud kicks ass...
I did a little modification though, since the weapons on default hud settings are kinda small, I changed a value in the clientscheme.res file.
on the typedeath part or whatever, where it says tall "32", I changed it to 38, made the images a little bigger, ended up cool

Reason why I used it is because I always get problems with filefront, and besides it deletes big files after some time without them being downloaded, and I hate that =/

2008-09-18 23:43:44

I think that effect on screen shot number 3, is superbly done. It would have been cool if you had more instances of that effect and actually give the viewer more time to view and say wow.

All in all, time well wasted. No seriously...good job man!

0nti

2008-09-18 23:46:54

thanks! and yeah I thought maybe it was a bit too fast and a slow mo would have work better... but I had already most of the video done and I couldn't (and didn't feel much like doing it to be honest) change everything just to make that part look better =/
You learn with every video you do, so hopefully any next project I do will be even better

I think some of your bounces are pointless, lol. I guess they make it look good though. The one I saw in particular was the xbow when you were on the top level of bio and they other guy was on the bottom. You bounced it on the ceiling. What? Was just shooting him not good enough for you? ; D

At some places, I felt like you wobbled the camera a little too much. also, you should have used a much higher capture fps rate in the scenes where you fast-forward. those are only two small complaints, however.

Yeah... the biohazard recam ended up kinda skippy (I did do the smoothing properly D; ! surely some kind of demo bug) and in the caverns smoothing, I had added motion blur but at the end of the video for some reason I deleted (dunno how) the final video of the version, so I had to re-do the final "thouches" I had done, and forgot about that one. But as you say, it should have been higher fps (I used ..60 iirc, later I learnt that recording at 500 fps for instance and rendering in vegas at 30 can give a pretty good motion blur effect).
About the custom textures, no they are default, what I did though was adding contrast to the whole video with magic bullet (awesome vegas color plug-in) Which in some cases like biohazard I should have, cuz it ended too dark.
Anyway, thanks a lot for the feedback, very much appreaciated

thanks mate! I really appreciate your words.
But I do think people will not just match, but even do better than this. Many are already getting some sweet editing skills, learning after effects and stuff, and there are plenty of very talented players out there.
There are a few videos on the making, we will have to wait
