EQII Video : In This World & in the next - Page 2

MysidiaDrakkenbane · 06-01-2006, 05:04 PM

I have seen quite a bit of EQ videos. And many of them I've enjoyed. But none of them got me to cry like yours did. I hope one day I can make a movie that's at least a fraction of that cinematic masterpiece that you've created.

Thanks again for the kind words. Thanks Lonissa for resurrecting this old thread. I was a bit surprised, but I do really appreciate it.

I've had a couple of ideas for another movie for quite some time. But, they do take some time to make. Especially for someone like me who lacks a natural talent for such things and has to make up for it with many takes and hours of editing (as opposed to those who make them look easy... *cough* Zilreed & Zemfira *cough). We'll probably be starting it within the next week or two, but it might be a month or two (or so...) before we have a finished movie. And it will be a little diffferent flavor than this one as well, so I hope you're not disappointed with it.

I did attempt one movie before this one and before I even knew anyone else was making them or posting them (it's been well over a year ago). My son and I made it just for fun, and threw it together within just a couple of days. So it's pretty crude compared to most you see posted here (obvious things such as cursor's on screen from time to time and such). After a fellow guildie suggested I post it here, I was amazed to see some great movie making styles and talent. It made me wish I would've spent a little more time on my first movie, and helped me to have an idea of how I wanted to make my next one (which would eventually be "In This World and the Next" ). But, if you want to take a look and can see past such obvious mistakes, you can find it in the EQII movies thread here: It's called The Trouble With Wood Elves.

Everytime the cursor came up on the movie, I tried to move it off screen! [Removed for Content]! You know you've played too much EQII when....

The first movie was absolutely amasing.

I absolutely love this video. It is my favorite EQ2 video. And honestly Forest_Wulfe, this was the video I had in mind when I posted about people submitting to www.machinima.com . I really think this should be available someplace where it won't be lost because it slipped off the front page of the forum.

Thanks again for the kind words everyone (and I'm honored that you would link this on your blog Sophi). Thil, I appreciate you pointing out the Machinima site. I might just take your advice and submit this over there when I get a chance. :smileyhappy:

Until today I had never seen your In This World and the Next video.

I wish I'd seen it earlier on. What a fantastic job you and your family did.

I think I got something in my eye during watching though...needed a hankie. :smileywink:
