What he said

So you liked it then?

I got to 1:34, but then it all went black...

























Because the effects were so horrid, they made me rip my eyes out.

Quote from LFSn00b :

Horrrible!

The jerky camera effects made it unwatchable. Not to mention that the effects claimed to be good on YT comments, theyre horrible.(as YT comments have always been.) The cockpit view on the FOX has a fatal flaw when you just turn the camera yourself to the crashing car.

Some shots include you pressing shift+f after you've started the clip. the idea is to do the opposite. Besides you still see the timeline below the clips. Some shots also feature shift+f the whole clip. Why?

Also you forgot the mirror on and it ruins the whole video along with the horribly done text effects, and the text has no other effect whatsoever, just the horrid glow. Also normal unedited TV simulator effect and crappy transitions.

Especially hate the part where you failed at doing proper shake effect after horribly changing from pitstop to a finish line. Try newblue effects pack.

You used also too much FOV on the pink FO8.

The pace lap part is also misleading. All you did was show FBM's racing down at lap 1.

The song is also overused. The second is just horrid. Both are also unfitting.

On the last part you also used the TAB button which is a no-no if you are going to do a proper video.

Then comes the text "PODIUM" and suddenly there appears the FZR's, then back to the text and then 3 formulas parked?

Lastly, "THIS IS OSR". Here i finally started breathing and went thankful that the video ended.

Why do you call this a promo? A promo should not include crashing or people will think your server involves a lot of crashing. After watching this I wouldn't enter the server, for sure.

Overall it's another 1/10 with nothing good to provide.
+FPS - atleast it wasnt a movie with max. 0.001fps.

- Effects are horrible - I suggest reading tutorials and buying proper effect packs, not to use normal sony vegas effects.

- Camera work is even worse - Improve camera smoothing in shift+u

- Chat is visible - Open cfg.txt and find "MPR Message block" -line. Put a number "2" after "MPR message block".

- Tyre menu, timeline and HUD is sometimes visible. - Press shift+F 2 times.

- Grammar - Mostly horrible. - Suggesting to finish school before doing videos.

- FOV - few shots had way too much fov.

- TAB button - NEVER use it when you record.

- Music - Try to find a song that fits the theme/tempo a lot.

- Angles - Use interesting angles that provide full coverage of what is happening, never turn off the cars unless you have a proper idea. Never use the look keys on the video either.

listen "master" this was my first video ok?

Well then maybe you should read this next time you decide to make a video.

What did i just watch?

Then you shouldn't be surprised by the reactions.
Besides, you said it's your "lastest", which means either "last" or "latest", both of which imply there have been others before

Wouldn't go so far as to call it horrible, simple because the crashes were good... From an editing standpoint though, it needs some work.

#1, use the camera smoothing effect built into the game.

You should be thankful then, tbh.

Niko's post contained a lot of good advices so that your second video should turn out better if you actually take it to heart.

FTR, I didn't watch it. :P

Nathan, you got to 1:34? I couldn't bear it any more after 0:30

Anyway.. I shouldn't be judging other peoples video's, as mine are pretty bad as well, so I don't bother posting them.
(If you do want to see them, they're on my vimeo page, link is in my sig.)

it wasnt too bad at all...he was trying to make the camera movement match the music (right?) and after about 30 seconds it was smooth-ish camera movement

Oh, you're so damn lucky he beat me to it, it would turn into a fullscale bombardment.

Ok, few tips though when editing,

1. You were recording it from the MPR (Media Player Reply) from Live For speed so next time edit that out.

2. New music that music is rubbish and it made my hearing pop.

Thats all.

And theres me thinking .MPR was multi player replay... Thank you for your vast knowledge the Stig.
