Hello There
I’ve been trying to make a proper frag video for a while now and I’ve recently been getting to grips with Adobe Premiere Pro, I’m by no means a pro player so don’t expect anything special, just looking for advice on how I can improve it.
Obviously finishing it will be one way :p
Song is B Complex – Beautiful Lies

Thanks and Enjoy :)
Ever since someone posted “She Looked 16” the COD4 fragmovie, people keep using those songs! Anyway, average movie (not bad tho) with a few nice frags in it. Though try to show the names of the people you kill on top right instead of hiding them (imo).
Keep improving :)
first you should change song or get prepared for flaming. Use ingame sounds

Right, that one also :P
Ye, agreed with Klevah. Beautiful Lies has already been used quite a few times. Its kind of up there with Erasus in the “its been used already, don’t touch it” category.
Also, download the PldX HUD, that will get you kills in the top right but remove all the ammo/health bars and such. :)
Also, ingame sounds it just depends on the style you’re going for.

seems cool man and i love the track, even though its been used already but i dont think ill ever get bored of bcx : P
couple of things bothered me though, i think there’s too many different types of effects at the start, makes it seem so tryhard and is inconsistent
also no hud at all is pretty tryhard but doesnt fit a fragmovie imo, atleast include fraglist and crosshair imo
cheers, keep working on it and dont release until its a all done and well polished and dont give up consistence at the cost of including as many effects as possible
How many different pov/fov’s were there in that?
multiple
I like the custom medigun beam, but either use it all the time or not at all :P otherwise: looking good.
i liked it just hate no hud just feels weird to watch.
fov_90 please
Get a proper movie hud (pldx.com) and use the config if you want to make things easier for yourself
The video is very dark and doesn’t look very interesting at all
There is very little to no syncing, if you use long clips you can for example sync the beginning of the clip or an extra spectacular frag to a high point in the music
If you know a song has been used before in a frag video, no matter what game, don’t use it. Simple as that
Be very careful when using custom skins and similar in a frag video
There are only fade transitions and together with the fact that there are practically no other effects used it’s just boring to watch… mix things up
… keep it up though, don’t be afraid the experiment a lot with effects and stuff, if it looks like shit just remove it.
Thanks very much for the input guys, going to use the Pldx hud to show crosshair and deathnotices, will use fov 90 it’s what I use in game but for some reason in the demo’s it changed, no idea why
Got an idea for a song, will have a go see if I can sync the clips up to it well enough if I can’t I’ll look for another song
As for the effects I’m going to spend a lot longer on getting the colours right and transitions smooth as I see what you mean by it can be a bit boring with just straight fade in/out
Will hopefully have something else to show in the next few weeks, thanks again <3
