BTW if you don't know the cold war, if you notice the CCCP on the soviet soldeirs and you don't know it its cool. the CCCP was a soviet space program during the space race.
I wouldn't call this a recam, but I wouldn't call it a short film either. Whatever it is, you did a fantastic job with editing, sound and capture. Well done! I hope you guys do some original machinima, because you chaps know what you're doing.
First, i'd like to say that this was excellently shot and has superb visual effects. aside from that i do have some constructive criticism.
1. develop a plot yourself. dont film a preplanned mission.
2. voice the characters yourself.
take that and you have a machinima film that could set the bar for all future machinimas. Honestly, I think machinima will end up being a well recognized and produced type of film media. If they all end up like this that is.
too many of you people missed the point of this. that's a real shame. this is for people who played it to nod and remember why the enjoyed it and for those who haven't (or those who simply don't play games at all) to understand why those who have liked it, actually did.
you guys did an admirable job with this. there are a number of non gamers in my family who i'm excited to show this too. i wish developers did this for their own games after you played through them. awesome job.
What you, and everyone else, must realize is that everything in this video (minus a couple voices ripped from the game) was done completely from scratch.
This includes the custom score, the sound design, the camerawork/ cinematography, and the Russian voice at the end. A hell of a lot of work went into this video, more-so than many of you may realize.
I loved this! I was kind of disappointed that they made Weaver sound like Hudson. But I did think it was kind of cool how they incorporated Dr. Clarke's voice in with the tapes left by Friedrich Steiner. Very Cool! I can't wait to see what they do with the Soviet presence in Vietnam. The mission with Texas the Huey will be epic!
Great cinematics, great music...but why did Weaver have Hudson's voice, and vice versa? If I hadn't played the Black Ops campaign, it would have gone unnoticed, but since I had played the campaign it was a bit distracting.
I'm going to give an honest opinion here... I was really bored with this video. I love all your work, I really do and this was edited and shot beautifully; but it's just a campaign mission. If I wanted to experience the campaign mission again, I'd just play Black Ops.
I understand what you guys were doing, it just didn't work for me. Max was great as always, the sound design and the visual effects were also good. I just didn't see the point in really making this instead of something original.
@BlackwatchFilms Lol? What you going to do make a crappy video with head bobbing as talking in multiplayer? This was beautifully capture and why did you watch if you dont like the campaign. This was brilliant and the people have real good talent to make something spectacular with only the media/video they have.
@BlackwatchFilms Kevin. I know you're trying your hardest to sound proper and respective, but you have no idea how much work went into this production. And with all due respect towards you, which isn't a lot I might add, you have no room to talk. Aren't you the one who likes to do mash ups of game trailers set to music? You know me personally; if you have an opinion, come to me. Please do not lay a false pretense upon these people. There's no reason to get butthurt over a campaign machinima.
@ClintWRea Just because something took a lot of work doesn't necessarily mean it's good. I think Blackwatch has a legitimate point. I also did not like this film as much because it was basically a playthrough of this campaign level shot with nice camera angles. It looks pretty, but that's as much as you can give it.
@tehSuperJedi Really? I preferred this to actually playing the level. It just proved to me how I felt about this game before- with all this switching perspectives mid-gameplay and going into first person cut scenes every five minutes, it seemed like it was trying so hard to be cinematic it forgot it was a game. That's why I think this vid works so well. But hey, I see why you'd feel that way.
@tehSuperJedi Really? I enjoyed this more than playing the level. It just proves to me how I felt about this game before- with all this switching perspectives mid-gameplay and going into cutscenes every 5 minutes,it tried so hard to be cinematic it forgot it was a game. That's why I think this vid works so well. But hey, I can see why you'd feel that, and you're right, just because a lot of work was put into something doesn't make it worthwhile.
@tehSuperJedi Pretty much how I felt. It's all beautifully done, but it's not original in the slightest, and that takes away from it a lot. Had this been an original story rather then essentially a mission playthrough, I would've enjoyed it a lot more, but sadly that's not the case. Clint, how much work goes into something does not always make it amazing, don't disregard Kevin's input because of your own assumptions.
wow it's been awhile, since duo made a vid. You need to work on your charisma whoever is the first voice. It doesn't sound like a leader and more like a nervous man. The guy voice acting for the eye patch man was good. You could more personality or more emotions into him but he's good.
