QUOTE (skipper @ May 22 2005, 11:23 AM) K, as u said the whole idea of a chase skit is kinda lame, nothing orginal really....bit of an over use of the effects maybe? I dont know wht the hell was going on the in middle bits, bit too arty. I loved your use of camera angles though, they were done well. diddnt think it went together though, too much stopping of music and starting a differnt song, it diddnt seem too flow.
And I dont get why when u make a 40mb clip tht its still jumpy?!?!?? so many groups have choppy videos and their files r huge!!! wht do u export it in? we use the settings like 512kb for broadband and them ones....u should too. and if u did, my bad.
Anyway, unorginal, over use of effects, but nice camera angles...and I suppose the fight scence was quite cool. decent for a first attempt, cut down on effects, come up with soem orgianl stuff, and your there I think.
Right the problem with the changing of songs is because it was filmed over on weekends, once a week, so after we captured it on and edited it,and the next week we filmed again and so on till we finished that's why there is so many song changes, Basically the start was filmed like last year, and we decided not to carry on for a while, you can see christmas decorations up, on the houses.
External image not preserved — inspect source: http://homegrownforums.com/html/emoticons/Copy of lol.gifThe reason for the choppy quality is, it was originally captured in WMM, with usb, 640x540 pixels or summut, so then I thought I'd better shorten the size, I should of now used pinnacle but at the time I only had wmm, so I shortened it in wmm, I didnt wan't people to wait ages downloading the 80mb size, and then not liking it.
but I must say, the 80mb size, is not perfect quality, as it was captured on WMM with USB
Ye I aggree on the effects, but still it's ok, it looks a lot better in higher quality,
also the fight scene, I thought it was shit! I really wanted to do it again, and alot of good stuff from it was missed and not caught on tape sadly, but I guess it was alright.
Camera angles, we only have one camera(sony dcr-trv22e) and wanted it to look like we had 2 or something,
We edited in WMM, and wanted it to look as good as possible with WMM, the editing was ok in my opinon, since it was wmm.
so more comments please thanks, if I get lots of good ones, I'll post the higher resolution one, as it takes ages to upload to yousendit.
