New video: Bang at First Sight

Alternative link and HD viewing.

Finally, it's finished. This took me way longer than was intended, hopefully it doesn't dissapoint too much for those who were expecting more.

I'll be honest, in terms of "story" this is not my favourite one, as I didn't really have any idea where I was going with this - you might notice that with the ending.

However, in terms of effects and pretty much all other technical aspects - it's miles better than any of my other videos. Now I'm not claiming it's the greatest thing ever, but to me, it's a vast improvement.

This video was actually more of an experimental one, especially with effects. For instance; the "heat-ripple" effect when they were outside in the sun, the dust flying around, sun beam effect into the camera, the color adjustment, the dust when he gets trampled, the ressurection spell effect, masking, etc... you get the point.

To give you a good example, just compare the visuals of the video above with one of my very early work.

The difference should be pretty clear.

Overall, it was a very ambitious project for me, and I'm mostly happy with it. I did notice some errors in the video once it was uploaded to youtube. But they aren't too glaring big. I might fix that later and reupload it.

Anyway, this post is kind of long but it needs to be said.

Some of you are probably wondering now "Is it always going to take this long for a new video?" - The answer is no.

Now I have a pretty good idea on what to do in terms of editing and video rendering, experimenting days are over, now it just comes down to practise and maybe learning on the way.
I already have 2 new video ideas laying ready, one of it has already parts done.
So a new video should be coming out fairly soon. I will keep you up to date on this very blog.

Thanks for watching, hope you enjoy.
