OK awesome video, but were you actually shooting a gun or was everything CGI? Ie, gun shot sounds, smoke from cinder blocks and bullets hitting cinder blocks? Amazing nevertheless...

[Harles99]

@SouLShakeRProdX Thanks, everything was real, I was shooting my ar-15 at the cinder blocks.

that looked great. What filter did you use in FC4??

[Harles99]

thanks,

to achieve this look I color corrected it, messed with the gamma, adjusted the tint and also used the "glow" filter to help give the dust a shine and then added the Vignetting filter to help darken the edges out a bit.

@stinkriverstudios - To say it isn't 'a film look' isn't actually helpful. How about explaining why you think that, thereby making your critique useful? Otherwise, it's like looking at a painting and exclaiming, 'It isn't art!'

[shaneth138]

kind of looks like you just added vignette and slow motion and not much else.

[getjoshnow]

why did ou put it in slow motion?

[RecordLater]

Very good.

[MrDarinWarren]

I've found that desaturating some and adding contrast is a quick easy way to get rid of the home video look. :)

[SITHEVILYODA]

wow.

the film look. i loved it. the song and everything.

it looked really good to me.

so sad to see a wall dying...

@phantomofopera91

Yea true, it's a massive ball ache in terms of rendering.

[phantomofopera91]

@ben947 That method does work well, but if you are doing full HD video that could mean really long render times. I prefer to keep it in one track if possible

Have the same awesome iMac and program, thanks for the free tip.

@SouLShakeRProdX was it CGI? .. Are you trolling or just plain stupid?!!!
