FPS view Deagle!

Post by mercenary123 »

Filmed this quick little muzzle flash trial yesterday, finished adding the effects in today.

It looks a bit weird because I when I filmed it, I intended it to be widescreen, but compressing with Windows Movie Maker tends to throw things at ya its own way.

That was really good. If that was an airsoft gun, did it have blowback? It looked really realistic.
If it can be written, or thought, it can be filmed.

That was pretty cool, when it first stated playing i thought it was some guy wearing a horse head costume thing, but it wasnt. The blow back was really cool and the masking to get the muzzle flashes behind the footage was done one well.

I'd glad you all like it. ^_^

It was an electric airsoft Desert Eagle, only I didn't use the blowback function, too slow. For all of the effects I just used Photoshop, 1st frame of every shot for muzzle flash, 2nd frame of every shot to move the slide back.

Hi-a Merc, long time no-see. Shot looked good, like bloodymess said, you could practically feel the recoil. Everything you did was perfect, consider adding casing's though?

Yup, it's been a while, finally back.

I actually did add some casings in, they're just hard to see, if you look closely you can see them. Casings usually don't stick out as much as the gun does in real gun videos, so I tried my best to replicate that.

Saw the casings. I actually thought you might've recorded yourself shooting a real Desert Eagle the first time I watched it.
