Squiggy's trailers.

The trailer was pretty good. There was a scene or two that had no speaking when there should've been, but I don't know if it was supposed to be like that. There wasn't exactly a bunch of music playing then like the later scenes, so I wasn't sure which way it was supposed to go. Still really good though.

Okay, so here's the deal. Most of you probably forgot I mentioned this, but the trailer for the memories on this site I was going to create will have to be a bust. I was all excited and had many ideas but fortunately I ran into some software issues that made that go downhill, (until I can figure out how to fix it). Anyways, I was already in the mood to create a trailer and I decided to make one for The Battle of The Five Armies. I made sure before I mentioned this that everything was in working order that way it would guarantee that you guys would get to see it. I'm really excited about this one and it will include real video footage and music and the necessities.This will complete my trailer saga for The Hobbit; with all the advice from the previous three I have made that I received from you guys and with new video software, this one seems to be looking up. That's the scoop, so stay tuned.I'm aiming to release this over Thanksgiving break, so stay tuned and I hope you guys will like it when it's all said and done . 

It's finished. This Friday!

Nice trailer, Squiggy. I thought the transitions and music were much better for this one.

I'm more than likely headed into a video editing/digital media field in college next year. These trailers are good practice and not to mention enjoyable to make. If you have any suggestions on movies for my next trailer, hit me up with some ideas. My next one will be in February. I'll look around for some clips and ideas but gradually I'm trying to get better each and every time. Compared to my very first slide clip trailer, it's like wow. BTW if any of you guys want to make one in the future, use a program called videopad. You get the full version for two weeks and it's great. No watermarks, no catches, just time limited. It's inevitable that I'll eventually make one for the clone wars. I'll probably peice together all seasons into one, we'll see.

O I definitely will make different ones for sure, I still have a lot to show you guys. I just chose this movie to wrap up my Hobbit trailer series. I'm thinking now what I should do next. It's funny you should mention the quick transitions because I was wondering wether I should have used more fades as well. I did try it but it made it look choppy and interrupted the flow. All these trailers are being made with old technology. Once I get my Surface pro computer for graduation, I can do even more, *evil laugh* then walks away.

This one's definitely improved from the last ones. It started off kinda shaky but got better by the end. Some of the clips of Thorin talking seemed kinda random and the transitions were kinda weird but yeah, you've come a long way.

I was thinking about that but I haven't seen the series. If I decide to watch Game of Thrones, then it's definitely a possibility. I knew you guys were all fans of GOT, it was a possibility that I was thinking but I have to see the episodes first. Plus since this is a show and not a movie, should I do one for all seasons or a mixed trailer, those are the obstacles to investigate but not out of the picture.

I think that's probably a good idea, as far as TV goes to start off. However, I'm really edging to give you guys a GOT trailer eventually. I've seen bits and pieces and eventually I think I can come through for the show but I think I will do TCW next.

It wasn't to long ago I said I was going to start this but I finally finished my TCW trailer! I thought this one was the most fun to work on and I think I'm definitely improving for each trailer I make. Thank you for all the compliments, pointers and other comments that were given to help my process along. I hope you guys enjoy and as always let me know what you think afterwards  . (This one is HD so it can be put into full screen but it might lag on your computer).

Nice trailer, Squiggy! Really enjoyed the scene selections and the music was a good choice too.

The clips you have to search for in terms of quality. Mostly, but not always on YouTube. They have online universal downloaders you can use for just about any site. I use a online downloader that tells me the quality of the clip I'm about to download so I know the output quality before the final product. I make sure all the clips I find and use are of the same HD quality: 1080 pixels, so in the end my video frame will match throughout the trailer. I wanted to use some other clips for this but some were 480 pixels and so on so I had to use the good ones. I use a free trial software called Videopad by NCH software; It gives you full functionality for two weeks and much better quality than movie maker for sure. Pinda uses Camtasia Studio which is another good one as well. But the sound effects and options are great for videopad, which was used to split the audio from Barris' speech in the beginning and match it with the music.

Not sure if any of you guys like Narnia but this is my newest addition. Enjoy! Eventually I'll do a GOT trailer but I need to watch first so I can coordinate it well.

I know what you mean, I had done that in my previous TCW trailer. I have always done a cinematic style trailer where I let the music take the flow. I tried something different with this trailer and tried to initiate more talking in more of a story telling kind of way. I saw some of your videos on your YouTube page by the way, they were pretty neat.
