Ed A.'s video: ArmA 2: Flight of Thunder

@ArmA 2: Flight of Thunder
Reeeeuploaded. Old account got banned =X ORIGINAL UPLOAD DATE: April 14th, 2010 ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: My long awaited (by me, at least) project is finally complete. After weeks of upgrading my computer and optimizing it, and then a week of work, I've finally completed this. The reason it's so important to me? Well, first of all, I hadn't made an original video in a long time. Second of all, this is supposedly the best video I've ever made to date. But 3rd, and most importantly, it it the product of my imagination. At least half the shots you will see in this movie I originally imagined instantly as I listened to the song for the first time. This means I had to work to recreate these shots just the way I saw them in my head - and for the most part, it worked. In fact, some shots I thought were impossible to make. I proved myself wrong. With this I declare my leave from ArmA 2, and I will not be making any more videos for some time. I'll now begin studying something else, but ArmA 2 has certainly given me a lot of great time and allowed me to do what I have more passion for than anything else. I hope you all enjoy it. This video cost me $300+ to make - and thanks to everyone who helped me out with tweaking and optimizing my computer. Thank you for watching. The music is Sacrifice - you can find it on http://www.audionetworkplc.com/. If you love it, buy it! I have bought the song and have rights to use it on youtube as I am not using this for personal profit, it is a purely fan made creation in appreciation of both ArmA 2 and the composer of this brilliant song. UPDATE: It looks like some people have been wondering what did I do to get the shots. I did use AttachTo for maybe 2 or 3 shots, and I did some other shots by hand. However some other shots I did using Norrin's camera script - check it out here: http://forums.bistudio.com/showpost.p... Be aware that it has a tough learning curve and is a little tedious to use - it wasn't all just rainbows and butterflies getting the shots. Also I had to use some really innovative ways of getting the AI to do something that they normally wouldn't do - because this script can only be used to track AI or yourself only if you're an infantry unit. Update 2: Some people seem to be thinking I'm leaving video editing completely. That isn't what I meant; I am moving on to learn CryEngine 2 for some time as I'll be using it to work on something really big this summer. However I don't think I'm leaving ArmA 2 forever, I can tell you that.
