- The beginning is way to harsh andro. You should fade from black or something. The same for the music, you could fade it in, from silent to normal volume. The Video should start not at 0/1sek, but rather at 2-3sek.
- Black crossfades must be good syncronized. Example at 0.11. The screen should only disappear to black, if the syncro with the music is perfect. The same if it appear again with to the raceclip. But you hit that very good at 0.12 and the next ones.
- If the music is lowing down, slowmotion is a good example.
- Try some faster / more camerachanges and don't use default cockpit view. I made the same mistake too. Looking badly. A example for that, is behind the driver at the backseats or views on the car, like over the spoiler/at the rear or something.
Great Musicchoice andRo, you hit it very nice.
But remember, try to cut the clips exactly with the musicbeat. If you hit that, the specatator is doing some headbanging.
And the graphics are awesome. That's what I like mostly. Great.
At First,
I just wanted to test, if anybody is able to post a video in an interval of one week and if you really do videos for such a competition.
If that not happening, we could increase that intervals.
But I think, you guys will enter that competitions good.
Looking forward to some cool videos!
Greetings.
Let's set the length to 1 Minute. However, you have at least just 1 week to edit it.
At the next competitions, we will set the length longer of course.
1. Every Winner of the previous LFS VideoMode Round, is allowed to set the next realistically theme (Tracks/Cars) which every competitor have to make a movie about. Send a PM to FireMike15, and tell him your wish of the next realistically theme for this competition. 1.2 The previous winner is allowed to give the realistically length of the video.
(Each length of the video you suggest to FireMike15, is going to have a appropriate interval of days/weeks/etc. to edit this Movie for this competition which is determined by FireMike15!
2. Intros/Outros are part of a video, so they have to be IN the interval of the video length. 2.1 The Maximum-length of the video which is determined, is not to overdraw +10% at any time and any cases!
3. The Winner of the previous voting isn't allowed to take part at his own created theme.

A short while ago, I was looking up the "LFS Photomode Competitions: Improvements & Suggestions" - Thread. I recognized some posts, which started myself to think about some other idea...
My Suggestion to start some very new competition here : LFS VIDEO Competitions
Some of you are very good at Movieediting here, I saw great examples of them here. To switch the media-area a bit different I think :
Very first Round of the VideoComp :
- Feel free to make a Video to every theme you like.
- The length of the movie isn't given at that first round.
- Deadline will be set by me.
Next Rounds of the VideoComp :
- Every Winner which won the previous voting, is allowed to set the next realistical theme which the guys here have to make a movie about.
- The previous winner is allowed to give the realistic length of the video.
(Each length of the video you suggest to me, is going to have a appropriate interval of days/weeks/month to edit this Movie for this Competition which is determined by me! I know how long could take a 2min Video and a 10sec Video.)
Other Rules:
- The Winner of the previous voting isn't allowed to take part at his own created theme.
(Some more Rules, suggested by you could I post.)
In my opinion, I would say, no Video should be longer that 2 Minutes.
To show you that :
1sec-30sec : 1 Week
30sec-1min : 2 Weeks
More than 1min : 1 Month
Choosing themes will be great I think, the possibilities are much!
That would be still awesome.
I don't mean that you have to lead that, just only some suggestion.
I really could imagine Lynce could make such things.
I'm going to start some questions.
I would really like to have the old voting systems, too. Forgot to vote.
Some other suggestion andro.
What do you mean about a "Video of the Month"?
Start with free topic and the winner is maybe deciding the length of the movie and of course the topic of itself. But he isn't allowed to join his own competition.
Just a litte suggestion by me, it would be just different.
But I have to say, it's everytimes a mess here, instead to continue this great thread with its main topic. Annoying.
Don't know what you people even are talking about.
