FA Modern Trailer Contest

I've always though a good FAF trailer could be made along the same lines of the well received This Is Eve trailer - real voices of players reacting to clutch/action packed moments. Might be hard to collect enough moments though.

Not a bad trailer!

I am a bit biased as EVE is really really complicated, but I felt like the 1-2 second glimpses of the actual menu UI just seemed to confused me. It would have been nice to have some audio or text to highlight what that is all about.

Regardless, overall it was fun to watch, but this FAF one I really think it should tell things critical to it being a more refined, improved version of FA.

@wingflier Ye its good! Hope you will make one for Supreme Commander

How do I donate to prize earnings?

Was there a change in heart about using this for an official trailer? There was quite a debate going on to the point where I was denied any kind of FAF official funding for this contest.

I was wondering the same.

@majorwitty pm me in discord Lenkin#0007

Should the trailer already exist I'm sure it could be nominated for this purpose. But until this is all concluded it should be treated completely unofficial.

That looks really good InitialDesu!

A piece of unsolicited advice for you and anyone else making/planning on making a trailer: if your system can't handle running the game on the highest graphics setting normally, use the highest graphics setting but slow down the game to -10, record the gameplay, and then speed it back up in post production. It will look a lot smoother and higher quality.

@archsimkat Thanks for the tip, it's been awful having to pray to the PC gods so I can make a take that doesn't stop mid-way lol.

Also @InitialDesu your trailer looks sick! I dig the dubstep vibe it has

Check it.

I love how it seems the submissions all had different ideas in mind, we ended up creating multiple FAF trailers that are equally sick!!!

@javi This is a top tier job. Really nice editing, from font choices to transitions, everything looks and sounds professional. A few things:

• Although I love Frank Klepacki, I think if you use Hell March you'll run into contentID issues. You might want to change music juuuust in case.
• The voice acting is top tier, did you get someone from Fiverr?
• Please don't put your setup of advanced strategic icons so front and centre, most people don't like the way it looks. Just use the normal strategic icons for the trailer aside from when you specifically mention the advanced version.

I went and made something that would make me want to pick up the game and give it a try.

Almost all the footage was captured from ranked multiplayer games i played in.

Voice audio is from the UFN, T3, and FAF discord channels during the games.

I realise its not exactly what the brief asked for, but a little variety never hurt, maybe you can give me a wildcard entry.

Here's mine (in Russian), also sent to Lenkin https://youtu.be/pSbpnIbz_cw
