[samroshan]

@GearsofWar1012

Hey, how ya doing? U know what, last Saturday, I took time to shoot a little bit for my movie! Did it all alone though... wish my bro finishes his college soon!

[WheelOfFate456]

This is...Just simply....EPIC!!! :D

YOU are very dedicated to Gears of War, eh?

You got a RAAM and Kim figure set, correct? :)

[samroshan]

@WheelOfFate456

Thanks... Yeah I am one of those fans ..hehe

But didnt get RAAM and Kim two pack:

Reason#1: RAAM was not in the right scale

Reason#2: I never liked the old Baird Body sculpt that was used for Kim(no leg and arm articulation)

Now that the new version of Kim is released, i will buy it.. what abt?

[PICKIE1111]

omg it looks real

[HorrorAlexReptiles24]

[samroshan]

@HorrorAlexReptiles24

Thank You Alex! Unfortunately I dont own a Xbox yet... I am one of those stubborn PC games :P

May buy one in future though.. Keep in touch

[KonohaSkatingNinja12]

[joeyyowell]

[samroshan]

@joeyyowell

I know =)

[Drag0nus]

Way to go- dude this video is AWESOME!!!!!!

[samroshan]

@Drag0nus

Thanks dude!!!!

[deanknight333]

WOW! GREAT STUFF! 10/10

[samroshan]

@deanknight333

Thanks!!!!

[nifepartie]

Awesome job! i love the little details, like reloading and stuff. if you had the drone from the "Marcus vs Locust" NECA box then you could use that locust during the kill shots. it has blood and guts shooting out of its chest as if it were being chainsawed. also switching between old and new marcus's faces with the open and closed mouths was a great innovation to seem as if he were really talking! again i think you did an awesome job, cant wait to see what else you do in the future!!

josh

[samroshan]

@nifepartie

Thanks Josh! =)

The making of my new video is currently paused.. cant find time from work =(((

[ttresnan1]

[mitchtherichbitch]

it will make it look a lot cleaner :) still this was realy cool. GEARS OF WAR ROCKS!

[samroshan]

Thank you so much for the nice comment and tips too.

This was shot with my Cell phone, I am now doing it with a proper camera and animation software.. It has got more frames/sec and smooth animation too! The project is in progress.. will keep u posted! Thanks again!

[anubhav234]

[jeef94]

ERES GRANDE MI AMIGO

[cybersaur]

[TheLegofilmer]

nice blood effect and where did you got the soundeffects

[samroshan]

Just good GOW sound files. ;-)

[samroshan]

Google*

[ilikekraata]

Amazing. I think your next vid should somehow incorporate the new Ticker fig. It's available NOW from eBay.

[samroshan]

Yes I saw them.... but I thought the price tag on them is too high.. I wish NECA made a two pack ticker!

[samroshan]

Thank you so much for the compliments! Well I am still a newbie here and by stop motion standards this is still needs lots of improvment,..

I had posted some tips in a comment, just scroll(next) few pages down.

As for Marcus and Dom mouth move, it was made on computer ;-)

[samroshan]

Thank You! I took about 2 days to make it.

[sixtyhobos]

[samroshan]

[nightsword2929]

can you send me one pleeeaaaasssseee i REALLY need them! 8)

[samroshan]

Hi Buddy,

I messaged u the URL... hope that helps =)

[Masterjohn360]

k but when you used windows movie make it movie fast when i use it and pull the picture all the way it takes about half a second for the next picture to come up

[samroshan]

Thats because I havent shot enough frame to make the sequence smoother...

To make a real professional Stop motion u will need to shot more frames to make the animation fluid....

[starwars501stfan]

awesome vid dude really liked it i am faving & subing

[samroshan]

Thanks =)

[Masterjohn360]

what type of software did you use for this

[samroshan]

Hi John,

I used Photoshop for the graphic effects, Movie maker for video editing and sound effects

[sixtyhobos]

good job dude i love it :)

[Boricua2014]

holy sh*t that is amazing!! Great job dude!! Keep it up!!

[samoantank]

that was sick i have baird at my house waiting 4 locust

[samroshan]

Ok!! :D

[Snip4rL3g4nd]

awesome best stop motion video i ever saw

[MercinaryDude1]

dude nice setting with the rocks and bricks and stuff.

[SZC611]

Hey man that was one of the best stopmotions ive seen.can u give me some tips cuz im working on a couple right now?

[samroshan]

Hey thanks!!! well I am just a beginner.. U will find better Stop motions by other. too. see some of my friends.. Halogenix

Tips:

1. Read some of the comments below.. others suggestions always helps :)

2. Have lots of patience. Dont hurry into finishing a scene. Shoot as make frames possible to make the animation look smoother.

[samroshan]

3. Use a Tripod if possible,

4. Although one person is sufficient to make a stop motion, it always helps and fastens if u have one person shooting and another taking care of animating the Characters

5. Just beleive in ur self =)

So all the best buddy!!

[geico39]

really cool

[codenameRAW]

how do you get the voices

[samroshan]

Lol.. from internet....

Just google it... you will find it =)

[codenameRAW]

how do you get the effects!!

[samroshan]

I used Photoshop...

[1beastoftheeasst]

that was truely amazing, i have no choice but to subscribe

[samroshan]

Thank You!!!! :)

[1beastoftheeasst]

im not sure if the figurines are very flexible but i think that you should make them look like they are aiming more than blindfiring, but thats only if they are flexible

[samroshan]

Hmm, they are really not flexible! Its very hard to perform even simple animation.

But I will try to make it look better next time.

Thanks for the advise =)

[1beastoftheeasst]

No problem, cant wait for more videos!

[divinidadoscura]

haha cool

[ElAmanuensis]

Muy buen trabajo Samrohan!

[samroshan]

Gracias!

[Ihave1dollar]

very awsome the effects were awsome cant wait for the second episode

[samroshan]

Thanks!!

Shablaa! :D

[allennop]

yeah this was ok, the motion of the camera was giving me sort of a headache though. Good sound effects and voice sound.

[g36gorilla]

Badass video my dude...Awesome..can't wait for part 2

[melwhyte]

nicely done looks like you put alot of work into it good job 5*

[nightsword2929]

i liked the helmeted locust drone at 2:42

[DJXTREM13]

Great can u make another 1 for me plz

[samroshan]

Sure! What do u want me to make?

[donutman098]

Great Job! Try putting your camera on a tripod next time, to make it not so shaky. Also aim for around 10-15 frames per second, to make it more "professional". Overall Great Job!

[samroshan]

Thanks for the advise.. I used a mobile camera for this video. Planning to buy a good digital camera. Want to make the next episodes in Hi-Res.

[MegaShot419]

Great video man!

Props on your effort!

This is really cool!

[samroshan]

Thanks! =)

[hemir9]

AWESOME VIDEO SAMROSHAN!!!!!!!

[Halogeenix]

Way better audio. Waiting for the second episode.

[111W3STSIDE111]

Audio is a lot better now, great job!

[SymbioteBrumak]

Very Good! The audio is better now!good job.

[samroshan]

Thanks man! =)

I was really surprised when so many reported a loud audio! Today I found Windows movie maker is the culprit! Somehow the audio was set to 200%!!!!

My fault is I never tested the video with my speakers at full volume! (My house would have surely shaken :D)
