It was good, but you seriously included you spawn killing a white combine on LA a few times? I mean really.

I just had a look at the video seem decent not sure how big of improvement this second one is over your first since I don't think I seen it. But anyway it a good attempt.

Intro is good due to the cinematic music and camera smooths but for a almost 2min intro I sure this could of been trimmed or active action mixed in to keep the viewer interested. As for the intro frag....well I never been a fan of spawn killing especially don't think it has any legs to be in a frag movie unless it a insane fluke shot from half way across the map. I think there are a number of times where the clip is over run after the main kill has happened a bit of nip and tuck could of been used here. As for no in game sound I understand that it can get in the way of the track but don't think it works removing it completely (you can use in game sound effectively to highlight kills or give the user a better understanding of what going on). As for the music good choice but Blue Stahli been well over used in COD community but guess this is a diffrent game and all so guess I can let it pass. Outro needs some more work as well green and yellow does not match up with the rest of the vid and needs more graphical mind especially overlaying text over each other of the same colour.

Anyway enjoyed watching surely better than rest of the crap I seen come out recently.

It would have been better if you had made it with normal speed rather than use slow motion on most of the kills. Nevertheless its a good try , the editing and music are not half bad either. 7/10

Yeah I was influenced by jailbait :(
so for the third video, 30 second - 1 min intro, normal speed, less spawnkills, better frags, and better transistions/editing. I can work with that :D
thanks for helpin me get better at this :DDD

i agree with all the above points. it's not a bad effort, you just need to wait longer until you've got enough fantastic kills on demo to justify a vid. there's plenty of good stuff in here don't get me wrong... but there's too much superfluous footage in this one. especially the xbow girl kills, lol.
the editing in it isn't even all too bad... but nutri-grain is right. part of the beauty of some frag vids is showing the build up to the frag. you did overuse the fast forward effect on this... more normal speed kills would be nice instead of the fast-slow-fast-slow... disrupts pace and intrigue

keep on working towards a better vid, it'll come eventually.

Why was the intro 2:15 minutes long? It was just panning.

And why the hell are you fast forwarding EVERY scene? It's all fast forward with the odd slow motion kill. The lead up to a kill is usually better than the kill itself, and you're just whizzing past all of it.

how did you know the intro was 2:15 long if you only watched 2 mins of it? pooooooooooooooooooooooo.................... :D

good God, the fast forwarding was making my eyes hurt. the intro was a super long walk through of LD and then you had like 10 seconds of LD footage, 5 of that was you doing a random jump, 3 seconds was you saying for the 5th time its not staged, then 2 seconds of fast forward. kinda wish you grouped the 1v1 2v2 etc instead of flopping back and forth. 3 of 5 kills on LA your opponent wasnt even moving, not just a spawn kill, but spawned and standing still, makes it hard to believe it wasnt staged. what league was the league footage from? there was a few cool nade jumps in there, i think it would have been a lot better if it wasnt fast forwarded the whole time.

lol, only reason I'm mad is cause zeik decided to crash my server a couple times(like 16 times) and on the last one it never started back up... So for the last two weeks I had it, it was not responding. I'm guessing that he'll say wasn't him but two diff IP's both comin from Canada. Can't remember but I think it wa quebec and Montreal, I dunno but my guess was a proxy because in the logs the first of the two would guess rcon, get banned, then the second would guess right after that, and then the server would go down.Oh, and it just so happens the server crashes right after I kicked zeik around 6 times, rest when zeik was ingame and not in a server. And zeik story is it just happened to crash right after I kick him or when he's just online, so yeah, I'm still a little mad about that :)
