Originally by: NAFnist
But personally I like stories, and this movie had none. So from my point of view, if you want to improve for your (hopefully) next chapter, I'd like to see some sort of story telling or whatever. Doesnt have to be 'A plans attacks on B', just some added text to make it all complete.
edit: You wanna show what EVE is about. I really would have loved if you also told it in the movie. Still, this is most impressive.
I agree 100%
However, i didn't have the time and resources for all of that .
I'm also contrained by the inspiring sound track which i stupidly forgot to credit.
I would like chapter II to have story driven elements but stuff like that is tricky. Realistic PVP can't be recorded without the UI and story driven stuff against NPCs is not the way i want to go. There are a few shots of pvp stuff in chapter I but thats when i hit record when i know it's a guaranteed win, and i don't always remember to alt + f9 either so
If i want chapter II more story driven, i need actors and action taking place on SISI. I'm not sure i want to go down that road; it'll look cool but it in the end it will only be fiction of fiction
In addition to no UI recordings i have a lot of pvp stuff sitting on my HD so i think i want to do a PVP vid next ________________________________________________________

You're in it fed, i think. A lot of the footage was recorded a long time ago but i'm pretty sure that tempest swooping down on the mega at 1:06 is you  ________________________________________________________

Originally by: Capt Jack5parrow Edited by: Capt Jack5parrow on 27/06/2005 16:25:40 bloody good job - simply amazing.
on a side note, what filters/effects did u use to produce that? the eve video community needs to know! 
Nothing fancy,
Luma Key/Gaussian Blur/Brightness Contrast to add bloom to the brightest portions of the image (lasers, explosions ect)
A very rough way of reproducing one of the affects of lens abberation. ________________________________________________________

Just one query - how many times did you go to see Episode III?
Once, is that a vain attempt at an insult?
I happen to like John Williams compositions a lot and it had nothing to do with the movie (which i thought was appalling on the non visual end of things). ________________________________________________________

Originally by: Vydek Daamth Wow! That is now a permanent vid in my collection. And will be one that I show to anyone who hasnt heard of EVE.
Now something I just need to know. If its already been asked, sorry. At 2:27 there is the Vortex (just like in the picture on the EVE main site in the screenshot box 4 of 10), was that part of a 10/10 complex, and where did you record it because it look flipping awesome. I understand that it was taken outta EVE because of the lag its caused.
And has anyone captured it in a fraps besides this?
It was recorded on SISI I'm not sure if anyone else has captured it...i would assume yes.
Originally by: Samantha Courage read your thing about the story - yeah missing.
But awesome camera - nice work of cutting - a lot of work I guess - 50 working hours?
thanks for the generousity to share this.
Close yes, about 2 full weekends or about 30-35 hours including rendering. ________________________________________________________

Originally by: Turiya Flesharrower Fantastic video; the music and video effects blended incredibly well. One of the few eve videos I'd label as a masterpiece. 
Any plans for chapter 2?
