Inconce... a real clan movie with loads of tp actions hasn't been made yet , so it's pointless to compare these two. I guess that the first one will be aK's Final Act
Well i didnt start with past! Plus i liked edl3 movie, it was awesome engine, quality, far best frags from your movies, cool songs and its a bit more basic quake if u know what i mean and i like that. =]
pixi: everyone can criticize movies who have login here , and that\'s not a problem if he do it in a culturated form with reasons. And i think "weight" of his words depends on what he presented before , or is he a friend or anything.. everyone can decide who\'s opinion intrested him.
like for me edl3 movie and kta are very similar, and the difference is about 3 years, so why u careem talking about past? ppl still making movies with the same ways, but now q2 moviemakers just take more time to do it
KTA is very old movie! In past i watched KTA movie everyday actually, it was awesome movie that time and u know ppl, u rated with 5stars and comment "WOW" etc etc.. And now is now, time has changed, movie makers are better now, movies are better.
Inconce?vable wrote : "i think that KTA movie is the best CLAN movie ever, because on this movie everybody see clan cooperation"
rofl at you , next foreign expert haha . if you don't have any clue what are you writing about , don't do it pls . after your words I tried to remind that 'clan cooperation' in this movie , but i couldn't . so i watched it and what can I see ? Two [2] well known tp actions . wow . this movie is a role-model for the rest of clan moviez , especially ours . stop writing bullshit , coz it becomes annoying to read you ppl
bubkez: its finnhits, not finnfrags. btw. finnhits is also various finnish artists compilation with some tango music and shit, so the movie name is some kind of joke itself, at least for finnish people
dont expect eye candy too much cos im more oriented to the frags
Btw "I know you eager to compare everything with my movies" rofl?
Why would i, i just say so because i "dont like" KTA movie and i dont think that movie is so good as u think.
But we have to w8 for the finnfrags, the name is already little lame, but i hope the content will be nice (and im sure it will be) i hope it will be good too, we need more eyecandy.
Take my post with a little salt, dont be such a serious person all the time, yeah i know u can complain at my movies, ive already resived like 10 pages from u with complain so thats no problem, "highlights from bubkez" trilogy was my first q2 movies ever so atm i was happy about my resault but now im just laughing about it
Yeye, finhits, im sure its good, by i dont expect anything then the outcome will be better. GL!
Music sux and settings not good? You cant come up anything better than that bubkez? Please try to grow out from reasoning things as rulez/sux.
>Its not hard to time if music sux
Now how smart that makes you look?
The only "mistake" i did in KTA movie was that i didnt know cl_predict, but i fixed that in my later projects. KTA movie was 3 years ago and what did you do back then? Yes, you released "highlights from bubkez" at the same time. It had distorted aspect ratio, 40kbps sound, interlace flicker and you didnt even remove camera shaking in recams.
I know you eager to compare everything with my movies, but kta movie is the only piece of my longer projects that are released. Im afraid you have to wait for Finnhits vol1 to be released. I have already edited first 4 minutes of it.
oh cmon , too long ? look at your movies , lately i watched a movie of yours , which lasted 21 mins and that was really boring ! moreover it\'s a clan movie , not 20min of frags by 1 person.
generally when I look at some ppl ratings concerning other previous movies and I compare them to comments posted here , i don\'t see any logical explanation . so how can i treat you seriously guys ?
btw. to all wise guys - it's not a whine , just personal suggestion
What movies have dimmu made?
I havent seen a good movie coming from Dimmu in.... yes never.. i mean how can so many like that "kta" movie, whats good about that? no offence dimmu but it was alright, but the music and ur settings were not that good, same for the cl_prediction stuff, and the content were not so good either, timings were alright, but its not hard to time if ur music sucks
I can agree with the others, this movie was not the best made, but it was enjoyable and ok, the 3d stuff were just pointless, would be better if they had some "meaning" in the movie and not just "effects".
Frargs was ok too, but the "spec" mode was kinda anoying, but fun idea.
Overall it was a decent movie, to loong but ok. GJ!
Well. Yes, i didnt spend time to look subtle and pleasant ways to express my opinions. And im not even going to, if i really dislike the movie. So i guess in these cases it would be better for me to not write anything at all.
Jup. I dont know man but gravgon is a wise man I totally agree with him.
He is the gandhi of the q2 community.
Most comments here are way to serious. It sometimes bothers me. Also the + and the - thing is so lame.
Oh and dimmo maybe yaix could learn from you with movie making(after all you made some really nice movies, no doubt about that!!) but i think you can learn something from gravgon here.
lol the real problem is that you guys take demosquad and the ratings wayyy too seriously.
I also said it's totally OK to criticize a movie but, for reasons and most of the time, when you do that criticism Foen and Dimmo (it might just be your english or your tone) it looks like you're telling the moviemaker "DONT make a movie if i t's not up to our standard you fool!".
It really sounds like that. Now take that guy who spent 8 months on making a movie, whatever if it's not perfect, he comes here and somebody totally destroys his work with words like "WEAK!" or "That _shit_ is totally unoriginal OMG", no wonder why he's a bit gutted.
So yeah, it's not what you say, it's the way you say it that bothers me here.
Oh and pixi, Dimmo's movies rocked hard... Don't you have no other ways to debate with Dimmo other than saying shit about his movies?
People dont listen to me? Why are all these people then constantly private messaging me in irc to have some movie help? Besides yaix himself asked me what do i think about the movie, so i replied him.
Do you think teaching or giving advices is looking down to someone? Is it disrespecting?
Yeah, the end credits animation was meant to be funny.
The thing that i don't agree is that Dimmu gave himself the RIGHT to look down on other ppl, to be the master, to be the speacialist while i didn't enjoy his movies particularly more than any other movies.
That's why... If he's so good as he thinks then i think ppl would listen to him.
Ohh yeah and that gay animal with bigs balls at the end of that purri-frag movie was just sooo *ffunnnnyyyy*.
I know, this reply is probably going to be flaming, but you guys are just making me wonder.
You say that if you make a long movie with some random effect it deserves 5 stars just for the time he spent to do it.
Ok, so be it. Time goes on, he and many other think it was the perfect movie since everybody rated it with 5 stars. Then many moviemakers make look alike movie, just like we saw after very well made pff2. Many movies followed its footsteps, but they didnt manage to be as good as original was. OK, so what is the point?
The point is that movies are not going to be any better, if you dont give the real criticism to it. Maybe it sounds bad or makes him feel bad for a while, but at least he knows what he needs to make better for next movie. But sure if you dont want to see better movies, lets rate them all with 5 stars and everybody are happy.
To feeble: I guess you missed the line where I said that Yaix have ability to make a good movie but he just didnt succeed in this one. Good effects, frags nor anything else that doesnt fit in to movie, doesnt mean shit, no matter how good and nice they are. Imo you can make a very good movie with everyday frags if only you know how. The whole concept is the most important thing, not small parts all over the movie.
All i did here was to give some constructive feedback that could actually help him to improve in movie making. And i really think i have enough experience to be in position to give advices. Not to talk about critisizing movies, that can everyone do who has watched the movie.
Totally agree with Grav, the effort alone is worth it.
I watched Dimmu's movie of Purri dm3 invul rail, the frag was awesome, the movie was terrible, wtf with the credit and the gay animation + gay music at the end ?
NICEE NICEE ROXX NI..ROXXNIC...RULZ
it's a big piece of good polish job, few nice effects, nice music (offspring, rise against), nice frags (granades :kali
quality could be better, but it;s enough 4 watching, and thats the point
first of all - this is not best movie ever... but its NOT WORST!
- quality of music (like low bandwith internet radio)
- pak (i cant see what hapend thrue that particles)
- that slow song (dont match to other punk rock tracks)
- only 1 teamplay action...
+ grenades intro
+ most of frags are nice
+ some special effects
Kinda stupid to publish the movie here if you don't want to be criticized. What Dimmo and others are merely trying to say is that a good movie was spoiled by a few things that movie-makers consider "noobish". If he would have the patience to read atleast a few guides or ask around, the movie could easily have made a 10+. There were lots of great and new ideas in this film but most of them were poorly made or "overdone" with effects. But I personaly always enjoy q2-movies, and this one was ok tho it had potential to be much better.
but who blamed?
you can\'t do movie what everyone will like..
and it is a good point too see something different than the pff style polish movies.
And yea , not all things are "mistaces" what u don\'t like in a movie , but i think some ppl agree on that if he don\'t use that too much transition and effect and use that time what spent to this ,for the quality and sync , the avarage rate would be 2 points higher.
Surely it\'s a good point if ya make a film to yourself and your mates , and do everything like that what you like , and not that what will the most of ppl like.(i prefer this thinking)
But i think there are a few rules what u can\'t evade if ya wanna make a good film.
Gravgon than rate all of the movies to 10 what made in 8 months , if this is the main thing at you in movie makin. My rate still 6 , after 2nd watch.
And who said he was making movies for the Q2 community ?
lol, every time someone comes up with a frag movie, he gets criticized as if he commited a HUGE mistake to release a movie that doesn't include the holy advices from Dimmo and the likes.
Give us a break, of course you can give your opinions on what was good or bad in his movie but don't BLAME him for anything.
I'll give this a 10 rating, and I haven't watched it. Only because I think it deserves a 10 when someone worked your ass off for 8 months on it.
so yaix... are you making movies for yourself or what? if you are making a movie for whole comunity you can't come with an excuse like "i even didnt know wtf is antialiasing etc".. next time just read comments about your movies again and again.. and between reading those comments you can read some movie making tutorial about quality...
im not a pro as some vikings are, ive just did what i like and what looks good for me. i even didnt know wtf is antialiasing etc... ive just had great time making it, and for me its important that i learned something new
Anyways it's good to see a 10+ minute movie again , after a long time. But something like ~12min could be enough with this stuff.
And it was good to see a clans movie , on much maps , but i waited some "clan" actions in this film , u could replace thoose easy frags , to not really eye candy , but nice teamplay actions. But here are nothing about this.. so this way i can say: this movie about a few guys's frags who plays in the same clan , not a clan movie.
Just a few! , 10-15 actions could be enough to give a little "clan" feeling to this film , and i can't mind that , you hadn't cuz u guys plays in much leagues , tp most of the time , and recording all time , so surely you have stuffs about this. why isn't that here than?
My other main problem is with the music: the quality of it , and the syncing.
(and feeble, i hoped u gonna vote a dnb track to this film , or you could choose some better ones )
I think everyone waited too much from this movie , someone get what that he waited for, someone not. But i don't agree thoose "worst movie ever" etc comments.
I dislike much things , but there were parts what i really enjoyed.
ps: i am kinda noob in movie making , but i see much main problems with editing , ofc i see much work in it , but it could be much better without some kiddy mistaces , much of them already wrote down by Dimmo.
i think Yaix just wanted to do something awesome , but it became "too much".
Ok, watched the movie second time. Now some real hardass feedback. Dont start crying, its going to be tough text.
There were tons of comments on first yaix movie (www.q2scene.net/ds/index.php?op=dd3&id=1122198700) and for me it looks like yaix has ignored quite many of the proposals for improvement. Ill repeat some of them:
- antialiasing & aniso
- crosshair
- you had no color correction, or very weak job in it
- many people said be selective on frags but there is still too many not movie worth frags
- camera bobbing in recams
There was some WTF moments in your movie. The 3ds max animation in the room where a male fell down on floor and then he mutated into female and stood up. Do you want to become a transvestite or what are you trying to tell us? Other wtf moment was caused by the matrix scene where players started to have white noise.
Now about effects. You shouldnt use an effect if it makes the frag harder to understand. That happened a lot of times. You seemed to "award" a nice frag by putting an effect to it and that resulted in nice frag that is quite hard to see whats really happening.
Someone was babbling about creativity and being talented. Repeating of matrix shit, using lame page roll transitions and bad tv signal, old hits from the 90s ... thats not representing creativity.
The grenade part intro was creative, i liked it. But then again you ruined it by using some low fps 3ds animations. Your movie is 50fps and if there is any content that is lower than 50fps, it will look laggy.
The movie would have looked much nicer without frame blending. And im probably talking about your worst mistake now.
Overall: Some of the frags were great, but the total mess of the video editing ruined the movie for me.
Seems like you guyes missed the warning from the beginning
I like the length and the whole movie impression filled with hours of work spended on it.
You will get the better content - you will create a better movie. Everything else is just an add-on. Choose wisely which effects, frags are hot and which are not. Thats my personal opinion.
this guy is extremeley talented, obviously, to be able to produce something of that caliber, and i'm sure it took quite a long time
comparing it to the other movies that are good on here, it's lacking
it doesn't seem to have the q2 feel, or make you feel amazed by the game, and highlight the players.
maybe it was to much 3rd person, or effects, or wrong choice of music
that slow song didn't fit at all
anyways, i hope his clan liked the movie, and it was good
i would bet this guy could make the best movie, or just as good, another time around if he chooses
you ppl are weird , don't have much time now , but let's start from beginning . dunno what were your expectations , but i can guess that simply different .
Jakkari and Jou : ye , thanks for sharing your opinion , you had some really good points...
Foen : you made me laugh , if u write such a comment , develop your thoughts , because it was on a level 15 yr-old kid "worst movie lately lalala" - very constructive criticism . Yeah , it was such a shit like for instance "Marbug Frags" , similar rating dude . Too bad that nice frags , multi maps , really good animations don't count . You just didn't see it , coz u were in a hurry to delete this movie.
At least some other ppl write more .
now few aspects :
frags : yeah , there are some quite casual , but as i saw lately few movies , such frags are really noticeable in movies... i can give an example of pure old school scandinavia where i didn't like many frags , but what the hell , it was 10 10 10 , extreme beauty frags . moreover - loads of frags from clanwars and on serious players - who cares? more frags on other map than on dm1 - who cares ? THEY SUCK
effects :
some ppl wrote that too many effects ... well , i remember pff2 and desire quake movie which contained LOADS of them , even it was exaggerated , but nevermind , they were all 8/9/10
synchro :
seb u wrote that not that much of it . yes , i agree ,it's not pff2 , but in every single part of the movie part you can hear synchro . what's the point of overusing it ( oh careem even didn't notice any synchro GJ )
quality is v good , but could be better
overall :
let me think , this movie is way much better than yaix's 1st movie , and you can see what you write now . many comments here seem to be irrational for me . this is my opinion
btw. too bad that only venom know what creativity means .
- 2much fps [50] imo ppl with lower then 1.2ghz comp cant watch movie normal.
- frags
- no crosshair
- pak
- no sync
- some useless 3d work / effects
- 2 long, i get bored after 10mins :::::
yea, i think too many transitions used , and too many type.Theres no music sync in the most of the time what i think the one of most important things in a movie , and many everday frags , but there are some what i really like.
I think the quality could be better , and resampling for 50 fps is not that good in the most of time.
(23:50:46) <Gravgon> im pretty sure the guy who made that 3c movie only wanted to make a god damn movie for his clan
(23:50:56) <Gravgon> and then people put comments like it's the cannes film festival
? didnt noticed much of music sync (maybe its only because i watched movie with only one speaker; there were few synced moments, but not that much)
? frags (werent THAT good as i expected)
? fire in intro wasnt good idea imo
? intro didnt fit to whole movie
? personally, i dont like q3-like armors
? camera was 'bumbing' (well dunno how to say it) when it was behind model
? AWESOME models animations, especially in the ending
? NICE 'grenades' intro at dm1, but the word 'grenades' after that came with not good effect i guess
? RESPECT for work given to made it!
well, im sure i wouldnt do better movie, but honestly i was disappointed. expected smth mroe. anyway: 6/10
thb, this was the worst q2 movie i have seen in ages.
I must say that moviemaker (yaix?) have potential to make a decent or even a good movie, but in this one he failed in everything he possible could.
I already deleted this one, so I can't give more detailed comment. But do everything better than in this one, if you are still planing to make a movie... It shouldn't be too hard.
I didn\'t like it.... Very everyday frags, bad soundquality and I had pretty low fps too.
But I guess it\'s nice to have a fragmovie about your own clan!
The intro and the bits of film inbetween the frags were very nice, though.
really enjoyable movie! i haven't ever seen something as good as it is.
+ music
+ frags ( some of them are just ' frags ')
+ intro
+ sync
+ whole of project
gg! vgw yaix and rest of 3c.
