Well hey there, yeap, I've made another one.Unlike on my last video, in this one I show both parts the game features: Space and Planets. But it's all going my way.

All the footage presented on this video is not only taken by me, but aswell by FHKO.

If you want the videos you're going to have to wait at least a couple weeks until I get back to my usual computer. Currently I'm one hundred miles away from it on this crippled connection. Nothing I can do to get them. I'm not even going to bother visiting the link for your video till I get back.

Youtube is pretty bad about messing up the quality of videos. That's why I switched to uploading .wmv's straight to tuwr exclusively.

[Mishka]

I'lll try to get it up to one of those upload sites for people to download. So far, megaupload asked me for too many fees.

[zaroba]

can upload it to tuwr if you want, then post a link to it.

use an ftp client and these settings:
host: tuwr.net
user: upload@tuwr.net
password: upload

[Mishka]

ftp what? O_o

Gosh I'm such a newb to the internet.

[Gavinbaisk]

File Transfer Protocal i believe it stands for.

Me and Vinn have been using it a little. Just get a FTP programme off the internet and put in the details zar provided. Then you should have access.

[fhko]

It's really pretty easy to use. I had no idea what ftp meant either until zar offered to host my TU stuff not so long ago. It really only takes a few minutes to figure things out. Just don't go and delete all the files in the two folders with my name on them. That would be bad.

Once you do manage to upload something you can create a link to it at the address www.tuwr.net/upload/...whatever folder and file you want.... Just as you would a web page. Note: The address is case sensitive and you can't have spaces or some forms of punctuation if you want to use it in the forum's [ url ] tag.

[Mishka]

I downloaded an ftp program and connected to TUWR. But I'm seeing files there (fhko models, fhko videos, and something else) and so I don't know where to put the video. So I rather not touch anything, scared of screwing something up.

[zaroba]

made a folder named Mishka for you to use.
when you connect, double click the folder to go into it, then upload the video

[Mishka]

Ok

[fhko]

Fhko is back in town for the weekend. So that means I can get to all my stuff and watch mishka's video...

Comments:

1)Somewhat disappointed by it, honestly. The beginning is too motionless and dull. Use a moving background or something to liven it up. Maybe this video clip might be useful. Introductions should be as entertaining as the rest of the video, if not more. Like this.

2) It might just be the youtubification, but the footage of much of the video if far too dark to discern what's happening. I'm guessing you didn't use a brightness modifier when you converted from the original uncompressed version.

3) We need to do something to improve your recording abilities, since I can easily tell the difference between my own video footage and yours by quality alone.

4) The credits are nearly as bad as the introduction. And my name is Fhko or fhko not FHKO.

5) Music is decent. Seems somehow to go well with the choppiness of the video. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to be able to understand what is being said in the lyrics, but I really can't.

6) I would reorder the clips in someway that doesn't seem so random. Currently it jumps back and forth between space and on-world. Adding some text might help too.

7) Some of the slower stuff could probably be speed modified to look a bit more exciting and smoother.

Mishka, what video editing software you are using?

[fhko]

And since I'm back I can upload those other videos you wanted.

I'm sorry Fhko but this is what I'm willing to do for the comunity, if you are willing and can do something better, then do the whole comunity such a favour.

And since I'm back I can upload those other videos you wanted.

I'm sorry but I rather let you work with your such great footage, to make a video of your own in the future.

I'm being an ass? I know, but people around here don't treat me very diferently.

[fhko]

I'm sorry if I sounded too harsh in my criticisms. There really is some nice footage you captured in your video (especially the fightnight stuff).

The truth is great videos take a lot of time and retries. I'm not sure if you've seen my first version of the TU trailer, but that's at least ten times worse than what you've currently got (it was before I got my first video recorder). Keep in mind this is your first version of it (my final trailer was about the 5th or 6th version of it and I'm still not completely happy with it). There is supposed to be a lot of problems with it in the beginning. The criticisms are intended for you to use them to make the video (and yourself) better, faster and stronger.

I really wish someone had harshly criticized my stuff while I was working on it. All the "Great Job!"s in the world weren't telling me what I needed to fix and I was starting to get desperate for any idea on how to improve it by the end. Perhaps I should have kept in mind you weren't in that position yet and left well enough alone.

If you don't have the willingness or time to remake the video, I understand completely. Video editing is a very tedious, repetitive and time-consuming process. That's why I haven't gone back and tried to improve my trailer any with all the recent footage I've gained during the past few months.

Mishka, I really appreciate any effort you make to capture and share some great TU moments. I admire your ambition and I'm glad to help you anyway I can. Except I'm not uploading another 80MB of video footage in one weekend until I get my hands on faster connection in the fall; it really eats up a weekend.

Your not even going mention my dancin' man video? I thought it was really funny. Then again, I'm easily amused by such stuff.
