FINALY!! SOMEONE WHO CAN EDIT!!! nice job man! i like your fast editing style. the only thin i recomend is letterboxing. LETTER BOX LETTER BOX LETTER BOX!!! thats my motto :)

That was kick a**. Perfect cuts that were in-sync to the audio. I loved it.

that video kicked ass

[SB NBT]

Damn that was THE LEET :)

I've seen every movie made and posted on here and I gotta say that's in the Top 2 along with another Sir movies. Must've taken you DAYS to finish that.

Made such a boring map look so fun too...

Sweet video! One of the best I've seen.

The best video editing ive seen. The only thing I didn't liek isn't ddirectly your fault. it appeared you were switching scenes with the music( i had volume low). Some of these scenes are swtiched around too quickly IMO. The eye barely has enough time to adjust.

thanks for the comments guys, I am very pleased with the vid, I think its been really popular because its nearly killed my website (used all my bandwidth, oops) , which is why I had to put it on filefront lol

anyone know how I can convert it to 16:9, I can't work out how to do it without just putting a 16:9 mask over it but that crops it too

[MrBrown]

Great video, really good video editing you did there!
But I agree ArmyOfOne that some scenes were too fast though... and some scenes could have been recorded with more FPS.
Nevertheless everything else in this video is very cool indeed!

What program do you usually use to encode videos? I can help you encoding 16:9, but there are so many possibilities to do it... tell me first what programs you use, then I'll now which approach will be the best to make a 16:9 encode.

wow great video very good editing job well done would say the best vid ive seen yet

[Sirrel Squirrel]

I used Premiere to make the film, this was exported as a Microsoft DV AVI file, I then loaded this into Virtual Dub, set the bit rate and compressed the file down

[MrBrown]

Yes, VirtualDub, that's perfect! :)

Open your DV-AVI in VirtualDub, select Video->Filtes, and make sure "Full processing mode" is enabled. Press the "add" button and select resize from the list. Then you can enter the size you wish for your video and the resizing method (I choose Bilinear for downsizing and precise bicubic for upsizing stuff). If you press OK you're back at the filters dialog. There you can control the cropping of the resize now if you wish.

I hope this was the function that you were looking for...

[Sirrel Squirrel]

cool, will give that a try thanks
