READ THIS FIRST BEFORE POSTING OR WATCHING PLEASE

Anyway im new too making well edited movies, and a while back i started my bf2 frag movie, although it had no footage of frags as i was waiting on upgrading my pc, ive got some parts that have been done on battlerecorder though with a mate of mine that would be included, and spread throughout the video, its only about 1 minute 20 seconds... but what i really want is some ideas... ideas on what type of music, what type of frags... may it be tank, heli, jet, transport, knife, shock paddles, sniper, englineer, at and so on, any you can think of that would give me some ideas to do and create and put a movie together, it may not be the best when finished or anything, b/c of the reason i stated at beginning. im using windows movie maker, ive got some feedback of a couple of mates of mine and they said they thought that it would be good when finished. the beginning words arent words about me trying to put mself up and act like im really good, but i got sick and tired of being called a hacker, so i went along with it in end, and thats what spurred(think thats the right word :S) me on to make this frag movie.

Its not all going to be on karkand, i wanna try and focus on, well any map, but thats the map we chose for the battlerecorder footage. Also not all going to be infantry whoring, coz i know alot of you dont want any of that anymore as yourve seen it millions of times, would be greatful for opinions and suggestions.
if they're flames... i dont care

and dont forget the footage of frags would be in between or something of the sort.

graphics have been scaled down a bit because of youtube.

it ends abruptly b/c thats all i have



Thanks

Dude...  Dont sell yourself short. 
What the hell you asking for ideas for?... this vid demonstrates you got plenty.
Besides... your best inspiration can only come from your own ideas.

I see some great editing skills there too... consider investing in Sony Vegas to fully realize your potential.
Focus on the editing quality and theme (or plot)

I Saw a real simple non-frag movie here just the other day that the author
spent hardly any time on at all.... but his choice of music, editing, and theme
got his video some pretty rave reviews.  "Battlefield 2 Still Goin"  I think it was.

Above all.... be unique... come up with something nobody has tried yet.

Dont play "For" the audience.... Play TO them.

thanks Safrguns and JAy ...
i saw the bf2 still goign as well, i liked it
as for the teamwork, i can get 2 poeple with me, who all we do is teamwork whore, well between us, like one dies, we revive, or running out of ammo and stuff like that and following what one of us does, like trying to cap the flag 1 will protect, and 2 will cap or some sort, and we make sure the squad leader stays alive. well try depending on how many enemy noobs there are xD

I know my stats arent great, they come from playing 20 hours on wake when i first started the game ad getting raped on carrier xD lol

Start as your favourite kit, kill somone, pick up their kit, kill someone else, pick up their kit, kill another, pick up their kit, continue.

Cool video. The 3rd person shots are generally best left for intros, and I understand you were just expirementing. I'm assuming the sniper jumping shot was staged (It appears to be). That's fine if you're using it for an intro because it looked fantastic, don't try to get away with that as in-game footage. Unless you're going to provide a 1st person view for the empirical doubters like myself.

Let your 1st person fragging do the talking through the video.

Good stuff, good music. Halo2/Breaking Benjamin ftw

You mentioned you were looking for inspiration? I PMed you a video link to an intro I am currently working on. May be it will give you some ideas. Hope this helps

I like it. Theres a good mix of viewpoint's. One thing I might say is that perhaps less footage of "getting" into position and more streak kills. With the sort of editing shown in that small clip, you could make a great vid.
