Recently, I earned a quick buck by proofreading a part of someone's PhD thesis. It took me a while to think of a good purpose for the money, but eventually I deemed it a smart idea to invest in a Premium account of Fraps. Why? So I can make some kick-a$s videos, that's why. For ages, I've had ideas about creating videos for ArmA and, more recently, Iron Front. Both games support a free camera that allows you to create the most amazing shots.

I'm still waiting for the money to be transferred to my PayPal account, so in the meanwhile, I went into the editor with the free version of Fraps and checked whether or not I could take the images I had in my head and recreate them in-game. The result is three separate 'teaser' videos that show some of the ideas came up with for the real thing. Check them out and let me know what you think.

Video 1 (just separate shots, no music)
Video 2 (some more advanced shots put to music)
Video 3 (some more pseudo-artistic shots put to different, more melancholic music)

SPOILER: the third one is the best.

Nice! Very good work on the editing, and that rabbit is awesome. :P Looking forward to more stuff like this. By the way, what are the songs called?

 @Bamul Thanks. I'll create more very soon. The song titles are:Video 2 - Artist: ??????? ?????? (Krasnye Zvedzy) Song: ???? ?????? (Vizhu daleko)

Video 3 - Artist: ??????????? ??????? (Grazhdanskaya Oborona) Song: ?????? ... ????????????? ?????? (Sobaki ... Nepobezhdyonnaya strana)Krasnye Zvedzy is a communist punk band from Belarus and Grazhdanskaya Oborona was a cult band from Russia that is often credited to be the first punk band to be formed in the Soviet Union. Both great bands that are well worth checking out.

Oh great, Gamespot doesn't recognise Cyrillic letters.

 @Bamul Only one works for me, the ó (which is also used in Spanish and other languages). At first the Cyrillic letters displayed for me as well, but when I went back to check, they were replaced by question marks. The wonders of Glitchspot... :P

 @DraugenCP Woot?! They work! xD They didn't work earlier - this is quite amazing.

 @DraugenCP I know, it sucks - doesn't support Polish letters either. Check this out: ?, ?, ?, ó, ?, ?, ?, ?... Anyway, thanks for the names of the songs - they sound badass, I'l check them out.
