VIDEO SKILLZ, I HAS THEM

[graafen]

This is what I spent my morning doing. Granted it took a lot longer than I expected; from start to finish (filming, editing, sfx, foley, conversion, upload) took around four hours. It's an homage to RoboCop and the "Robot Wars" episode of Spaced (series 2, episode 3, "Mettle").

NOTE: I do swear in this video, so quite NSFW.

Yes, I know there are some things wrong with it. This was my first attempt at SFX.

For those who are interested this was done in Adobe After Effects and Adobe Premiere pro.

Feedback and constructive criticism (a long shot, I know ;) ) are appreciated.

I'm not entirely sure about the finger clicking. I kind of makes you look like Foxy Cleopatra or someone like that. "Oh, no you d'int, Girlfriend. *snap snap snap*"

But otherwise, very nice. The proper Robocop/DOS commands (why Robocop ran DOS we shall never know. Maybe that was where his problems lay), the "tracking" effects are good. Perhaps some random boxes on your face in the early stages would be good, too. Y'know, spotting the face, tracking the eyes. If you want to get really fancy, clone your mouth into a little box in the corner. Just some little things to imply that "The Computer is Thinking..."

Ahh, those are good ideas! I shall keep those in mind for the next time. :)

Ah. I have plenty of "good ideas" to spare. Well, Ideas at least. Most of them are either impractical or idiotic, but if'n you want more, do say.
