Author Topic: [Video] Straight to bed  (Read 1918 times)

This is what came to mind one day when my dad told me to go "straight to bed" when we get home. Video

Feedback is very much appreciated- I wasn't quite sure if the joke was easy to understand or not

Laughed slightly. Could have used better filming though.


Uh, it was ok for a start but I saw lots of things wrong.

Try hitting F5 before you record so you don't see the circle.

If you can, try and invest in full Fraps as it'll make your videos look much better

I really liked the driving scene though.

Also try and get voice actors next time as that robot voice gets irritating.

Also try and get voice actors next time.
I might volunteer.

I thought I hit f5 for at least one of those scenes, I guess I forgot about the rest of them though, lol
And yeah I'd love to get the full version of fraps, I'm sick of that lil doo-dad at the top of my videos

It would definitely have helped a lot if I had actors though (voice actors too) it was excruciatingly difficult to do all the clips inside the car with only myself and three bots... I had to find some way to keep the car going as I filmed, & keep it going straight, and I had to find a way to make the bots do what I want. I got so few frames of video before I kept swerving off the road that I had to loop the same clip over and over XD

I might volunteer.
Awesome, thanks! :D I'll send you a pm next time I make a video

Would it not be smart to send you a recording of my voice so you know what you're dealing with?

That would probably be smart, yes please :)

Great, thanks! Next time I need voices I'll try and remember to pm you. I would do it by myself but- I have an odd sounding voice, lol

5/10

The good:

- Decent camera angles
- Well edited clips, in that it gets to the point (some BL videos film a load of BS to flesh out their videos)
- Attempt at creating a script with a purpose and with dialogue
- Lack of subtitles

The bad:

- Voice acting substituted with text-to-speech, never works
- Fraps logo, a letter box effect could have fixed this
- Strange build made the production feel extra rushed
- The /hug was a bad decision as one of the actors revealed a wrench to get rid of the pose
- Joke was corny as hell lol

The good:
Thanks :D
The bad:
What do you mean by a letter box affect? I'm not sure if I can or can't do that in WLMM depending on what it is
As for the build, I know I didn't do the exterior very well. But the interior is good for what I usually do. It just didn't look very good since it had a huge gaping hole and had bricks lying everywhere and it was so dark, lol

A letter box effect are two black bars that close in on the top and bottom of a video. It creates a cinematic look and can hide the fraps logo.
