Bubbawheat's AE Trailers

Thought I'd pop in here to get some feedback from those who actually make videos. I've jumped into the CoH video making game and I'm enjoying myself so far.

Here's my first AE Trailer - made for @PW's arc Talos Vice.

And I'm working on my second one. I'd love to hear any tips, suggestions, or just some general feedback.

I'm using FRAPs to record, and Windows Movie Maker to edit. I've tried, a little, to mess with demorecording, but it has a lot of problems getting things in AE that I'm interested in getting.

Fun stuff! Keep up the good work

Great job Bubba! I see you've improved, already

Suggestions:
1- ditch the UI
2- use music and sound effects (80% of what you perceive is sound)
3- vary your shots, use close-ups, wide shots, tilts, pans and spins
4- have an alt with invis & fly that can shoot any scene/setting from any angle in combat or non-combat mode
5- keep it up!


Craft your inventions in AE!!

Play "Crafter's Cafe" - Arc #487283. A 1 mission, NON-COMBAT AE arc with workable invention tables!

Done!

And my third trailer is done: Fear and Loathing in Striga #350522 by @FredrikSvanberg.

The one thing I've been enjoying is how different these are from each other.

Trailer #4 is done! Only two more Player's Choice winners to go, then maybe I should make some for my own arcs. Huh, there's an idea

Hey Bubbawheat, I just wanted to say; your trailers have inspired me to try out the arcs for which you've made trailers.

And I have not regretted doing this one bit! (Your trailer for Golden Age Secret of the Paragon Society in particular was awesome!)

A couple more to add - would love to hear thoughts/comments/suggestions on any of them. Or even just which one is your favorite and why.

Rise of the Blood Countess by @Elizabeth Bathory

and

Small Fears by @Wall of Knight

Time for another update already. Signal: Noise by @The Cheshire Cat. Creepy squared, you must play this arc. Preferably at night by yourself. Just watch out for the mannequins.

Bubba... yikes dude! This recent one reminds me of a subliminal message video. Trippy, confusing, but intriguing enough to make me want to check it out. Props to you!

Looking good!
