December Announcement

December, wow. My 17th birthday passed on the 1st, and the upcoming Christmas holidays is just up ahead. Have I been doing anything related to my video hobbies? I touch upon UnKnown Moments 5 every now and then. Anything else? A bit, but they weren't much, so I released them on my secondary account. Have a look if you're bored.


For UnKnown Moments 5, I am retrieving back to my roots by including a nice bunch of mini music videos (like my Easter video), similar to what I did with the first UnKnown Moments. The purpose for this is to have a variety of humor, and it serves as a cooldown in between all the killing and explosions this next sequel will include. Currently, I still have exactly five more minutes left to complete, excluding the introduction and credits, but that's because I haven't started the music videos yet. (A couple will be at least a minute long.) Finishing this up isn't a priority for me at the moment, so I'm only producing a scene every few weeks (on average). This should speed up when I hit Christmas break, but that entirely depends on if I'm up for it.

Note that the 2011 announcement for UM5 does not mean "January 2011". It just means 2011, because I don't have a clue when I'll finish this next year. That's all I can say, because that's all I know. In other words, I'm giving this project a "when it's done" release date. In fact, most of my projects for now on will. My 2011 release date announcement was me being considerate of your impatience. Be grateful. :P


Anyway, time to build extremely unnecessary hype. Comparing this project to the prequels, UM5's quality blows the prequels out the water. Recorded in 1080p (widescreen) on the highest settings. The only thing I regret is recording scenes with 29.97 fps instead of 45. (Looks much smoother with 45 fps.) The environment in most scenes will be more fluid and active in this sequel, since I've learned a very useful strategy in combining multiple shots into one. Overall, the quality in this sequel is an obvious defeat over the predecessors.

I can't really judge the punchlines and hilarity level for myself, but I can assure you that my humor is cleverer than before. The replay value is, without a doubt, top-notch, because I find myself watching my newest scenes over and over again. The only con I can think of is, if my mini music videos don't have the humor cooldown like I hope, the killing and explosions might get a bit repetitive through those ten minutes.
