Whiteout by Crainy
Some of you might remember CrainyCreation from his feature-length machinima, Rebirth of the Swarm. He's just released his Blizzcon movie contest entry, which is a short video aimed at approaching the Heart of the Swarm "Ingame" cinematic quality. There's lots of custom animation and fancy compositing work that went into this one, and it shows.
Give the video a look and make sure you leave your thoughts in the thread here!
We'll be posting a more in-depth article about all the news from Blizzcon in the near future, so keep an eye out!
This is really cool. Nicely done!
Wow. Really improving there Cranny! Nice work man!
Is this done with the editor or with another 3d program.
The male voice actor is pretty uhh... not good. Good performance from Holly Lindin though, well done.
Writing is getting better, could still use some work
Cinematography wise it is very good, the shots and scenery are quite nice
This is pretty basic and I guess that's how you get what you want lol.. She says "how can you be so sure?!" just an example of what it seemed like to me. A bit corny but great job at instilling the feeling of awesome when the ship arrives.
The frost on the window(our camera looking into the scene) kinda took away from it all.. Just as I was feeling the moment I see the frost and realized I wasn't actually there.
3.5 of 5 stars. could be longer.. could be more "fresh" rather than cliché... "we were fighting the zerg".. in a raspy voice not pronouncing the "r"s.. what about the mythology behind Templars? Could be tons of juice for you there.
Very impressive visuals! However I don't like the voice acting for the colonel. The woman marine's voice acting is good.
