Mount & Blade - Unofficial trailer

[carrigallen98]

I thought the opening was good, especially the ominous sunset shot. However, many of the battle images (as someone else mentioned) were not particularly engaging or dramatic. I suggest sticking to the third-person viewpoint, and slightly shorter action clips. Including a group of cavalry charging, peasants revolting with pitchforks, or group of soldiers running up a siege tower might made it more enthralling.

@carrigallen98 Definitely good advice, if I had put more time and effort into it, I'm sure I would have gotten some better material. It was just a fun little boredom-project, but if I ever decide to make another video, I'll definitely take more care doing that both during recording and editing of it all. And maybe I'll install some landscape-mods and use a better editing software. :)

Thanks for the feedback!

[072666]

nice Intro:D

one idea: it would have been great if you had mentioned which are the kingdoms(for those who don't know)

[MrJenssen]

@072666 It's definitely an idea, but I kinda tried making it into a homage to movietrailers for epic films, with as little reading and as much atmosphere as possible. :)

[tnareuqnoc]

Hum... sa as du te prendre du temp ^^ en tout cas bon travail ;) la music ressemble un peu a celle que je met dans certaines de mes vidéo ;)

[Aznhano]

btw what music did you use?

[MrJenssen]

Yes I have the full version. It costs like $30, and you only pay once, and then you get all updates (etc) for free after that. It's definitely worth it if you're into this kind of filmmaking and you've got a bit of money you wanna spend.

The music I used was based on various tracks from the soundtrack for "The Witcher" (the PC Roleplaying game - check it out, good game with a good soundtrack).

[MrJenssen]

@Aznhano I edited together different tracks from the soundtrack from an RPG for the PC, called The Witcher. The soundtrack is amazing, and so is the game. Well worth checking out. :)

[MrJenssen]

@Aznhano It's written in the video's description. :)

[Aznhano]

you have a full version frap?

[hedgewan]

Very Nice! I had been fishing through tons of videos to find something like this so I could show my friend this game.

[Skundac]

Bonne idee'!

[beepIL]

hey wonderful job there

[MineFieldExplorer]

Lol, shot right in the eye.... gotta love mount and blade!

[ready53]

This is the trailer once you open Mount and Blade, isn't it?

[MrJenssen]

There is no trailer when you start M&B. There are just the two video-logos of Paradox Interactive and Taleworlds. But you're correct, the beginning of this video is of course the same as in the beginning of the game. The rest, I have made myself. :)

[Poirash]

Trailer GENIAL 5 *

Par contre la caméra manque de fluidité et certaines scènes de combat manquent de saveur.

[MrJenssen]

@Poirash Pardon, my french is a bit rusty, to put it that way. Would you mind writing that again in english? :)

[Jazbec60]

it looks kinda dum when youre running through town but good anywaay. 5 stars

[MrJenssen]

@Jazbec60 I thought about that myself, truth be told a few of the clips are filler-material. I pretty much did this in one afternoon, just for the boredom of it. if I was to put more effort into it, I would have used something other than Windows Movie Maker, and I would have been more careful what clips to put in there. But indeed, I did think about that clip. Just wanted to show the more "civilian" side of the game. :)

[THETriggaHappy]

In so many ways, this is better than the official trailer. Epic job Good Sir, epic job.

[MrJenssen]

@THETriggaHappy I believe the music deserves a lot of credit for the atmosphere of my trailer. Not being a commercial game developer, I don't have to stick to rules like "don't use copyrighted music" etc. I used the music from another game, which is a bit cheating. Still, thanks a lot for the compliment sir! :)

[VR61661]

This is actually much better than the official trailer that I've seen :)

[MrJenssen]

@VR61661 Much appreciated, sir! :)

[smarzotais]

5/5 awesome!

[JammingEcono]

Way to go!

[Zunbandee]

nicy!

[AchmedTheBigOne]

keep up the good work =)

5/5

[RPRXR]

trailer is not dynamic enough.

[MrJenssen]

@RPRXR Feel free to be more specific. Maybe I'll be able to do something about it in future videos. :)

[xxlebox]

Wow, 5 stars.

[sooowang]

nice work mrjenssen , just a little short and i suppose it should be much exciting if there's more scens of battle ... after all, hope to see your next version if there will be :)

[MrJenssen]

@sooowang It's mostly short because I finished it up really fast, I didn't intend on it getting even as good as it was (whether it's any good at all is for everyone else to decide). Also it's hard to keep a trailer long and still exciting. The music is especially tricky to pull off, especially since I have to use other people's work and not my own.

Now that WarBand is out, with its new features and all, I do not doubt that I'll be making a new video someday. Don't hold your breath, though! :)

[LvPatriot1]

awesome :O
