Rotluchs 82 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 personally, I like ryans video and all his effort he puts in these.. but I'm still not sure how I should feel about using footage from games/material that are not from 'unbended' .. even if it is sacred.. viewers that don't know sacred 1/2 and other games might get the wrong idea and think it's from unbended. 1 Link to comment

I try But there's only about 13 seconds of that video that use Sacred as background footage. I blurred it a bit and used it only because the transitions between the same picture looked a little funky. It's hard to keep people's eyes interested when all I have to work with are 1 concept art piece, a world map, and some .pngs I custom made from their existing art. I agree though, I'm in a catch 22 here where I want to help bring awareness to the game to get more funding, but at the same time I don't want to come out with content that gives people the wrong idea. I've been toying around with using some unrelated game content for transitions - something like ambient smoke on a black background. Thoughts on that? I enjoy making videos, but don't want to confuse others Edited August 13, 2014 by Ryanrocker 2 Link to comment
DreDBanGeR 32 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 a log fire? maybe an unrelated gif with clouds moving or something similar, not distracting but in the background 1 Link to comment

I enjoy making videos, but don't want to confuse others Your work here is exceptional, there is obvious craft and care here, and you're creating buzz for the upcoming game, so a well deserved Bravo sir! If there was something to add, though, perhaps stick with the way you're doing but just add a big disclaimer at the beginning of your video saying that all game play in the following video is not from UnBended, but from x and x games... Make the disclaimer funny, entertaining, and clear. I'd have no problem at all with something like this, specially if it a cool and funny disclaimer @ Ryan gogo Link to comment

gogoblender 3,070 Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 You know, there is actually some art work out...have you considered having the camera doing a very slow pan across the surface of the images currently on the unbended site? In fact, they have their logo as well...this could provide that active engagement you're seeking, specially as background, while using true content... Though I think using videos from other games is not a problem as long as it's made clear from the beginning that nothing moving you're showing is actually from UnBended. gogo Link to comment
Popular Post DreDBanGeR 32 Posted August 13, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted August 13, 2014 Disclaimer: warning, the game you see as background footage is not Unbended, however, it is highly addictive and from the same people who are now making unbended. If you want to know more follow the link provided at the end of this show. no really, click that link!! 2 Link to comment
