I prefer to add new post. Keeps things simple from my perspective.

Check out The LaunchTunnel...In Video... Not perfect or pro, but it served its purpose.
I also uploaded this BSG Launch Tunnel section here at SciFI meshes.
unsure when it might be approved.

    If you're that far in, you might as well complete it (says the guy with three incomplete novels on his HD).

    I will admit, I'm not a fan of the music. However, the visuals are quite impressive. There's some jitter and stutter in spots--stuff that's not mimicking the "twitchy cam" so popular in BSG--but, overall this is cool stuff.

    I'd say finish it!!! I'd love to see the finished product. :)

    Aye, definitely look at completing this, looks a vast improvement on work you've posted before, and is a very ambitious looking project. I think you'll definitely have something you can be proud of once you have the final product. Keep up the good work.

    Update Time, thanks for your support.

    I was lil drunkeness and lightheaded, tis a reminder now not to drink and surf
    when you are over 40 lol

    Spoiler Alert:
    The main aspect of this I have not even really begun to create the scenes, but,
    I hope to make it sad......

    These I will probably try and retweak if I have no meltdowns. Since I was having un ending app,Comp and Highly suspect Gfx card/driver causing all kinds of mayhem.Thanks to one, I am aware of lights that need some attention in 3 of the clips...

    Tis a long road,

    Thanks all.

    Update Temp Video

    Have tried to retweek and redoo some clips from last update, and also added really only one new clip that needs
    some more work still.

    I am really eager to get to the next phase if you will, so I can try and do some things I got in mind and want to try.

    Also, think I might try and redo the Audio for the Text title.

    Keep in mind, I am an amateur, so you can do this at home :flippy:

    Pers. Notes.---- Vent of frustration
    --nothing to do with here,just the video .

    Am really feeling shunted and as if I been slimed by a nasty free roaming vapor of nasty human ignorance. Thanks to a youtube patron.

    Details omitted.



    ( if you would like a transcript of the details, please send 14.95 plus shipping and handling to me.)
    actually, I would love to give it to you, but the 14.95 is a tax on free things now.... :lol:

    eh, I had to try and liven it up, because whoever it was, irked my sensitivities.

    you have some good camera moves and ship flight path in there
    you'd like to review the editing.
    some shots end up too abruptly and you have fades to black that dont work
    the eye need about 1/4 -1/3 of a second to understand what happend. > you cant start an action at the very end of the shot. OR, you can start at the end and show it in the next shot.
  • Randal RRandal R0 Posts: 0Member
    hey,
    appreciate the input, really.
    I am not sure I understand what you are saying--

    you cant start an action at the very end of the shot. OR, you can start at the end and show it in the next shot.

    maybe an example? I think I kinda get the second half of it though.

    Thanks

    Randal R.

    in you last frames of a shot, nothing can happen that you can consider aknowledged. a new action have to start in the next.

    or, if you did it anyway, you must show it again, cause the brain didnt get it. the brains knows something happened, but couldnt tell what, and wont enjoy what happens next, unless its clear that it's the same event.


    so, you can either cut it and let it start the next shot (recomended), or just repeat it (less recomended).
    general rule is : 7-10 frames of no major event prior the end of a shot.
