SSX Style

Hey guys. I made this SSX movie in a couple hours last night and the footage (PS3) is taken from wednesday, thursday and friday night. To take a look at my creation will take 3 minutes of your time. Editing is minimalist, I just used Movie Maker. Any feedback is welcome. Cheers! Tayste

1. The music doesn’t work with the action on the screen. Should have a song with a faster tempo.
2. There isn’t much variation with the moves you’re pulling off.
3. Is there a way to see less of the HUD when you’re playing?
4. In game sound fx might help
5. Maybe try some cross fades as apposed to so many straight cuts

Hey. Thanks for the feedback!

Good tips. Yes there is a way to see less of the HUD, however, I was kinda cheeky in the way I captured these moves… I was trying to hit fast race times. And whenever something cool ‘happened’ I stopped recording. Over time I built up a selection of clips which you see here in this movie. Few, if any, of these clips were deliberately done. So it’s more a collection of cool stuff that happened by accident. To remove the HUD you have to play in another mode other than Race mode.

I ended up following up this movie with another two, made in the same way, all ‘accidental’ stunts. Although, some of the clips used in the two sequel movies were HUD less, which came about because I needed more material to fill the movies out.

To put into question your point number 4 – the in game sound effects are enabled. Not sure how you missed that one!

If anyone is interested in seeing the following SSX Style movies I made following this one, have a look for my youtube channel, I don’t have many uploads so they’re easy to find. I’m Taystesouth on youtube. Cheers!
