Orion - A Voyage to Duna (Inspired by Interstellar) [OUT NOW]

[SpaceXray]

It is finally here! This is my very first proper cinematic and I really hope you guys enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it.
Of course, I'm not Nassault, but I was very much inspired by his work.
I will publish the ship .craft files in a separate thread in the spacecraft exchange before 24/12/2014. Edited December 19, 2014 by SpaceXray

Very nice to see others doing Interstellar type videos. Nice job!

[SpaceXray]

Thanks! I didn't want to spoil anything, the teaser contains only a fraction of the footage.

[SpaceXray]

I'm glad to say I am 90% done on the movie. It will be 15-20 minutes long since that is the perfect length.

Do you guys want a few teaser screenshots?

[SpriteCoke]

Yes please!

[SpaceXray]

A little hint: I think I will re-do the first launch shown in the teaser and use Camera tools this time. I want quality in my first proper cinematic.

And also:

Ahhh... I assume lots of people want to create interstellar tributes/remakes/movies based off it, most notably the great Nassault. Interesting shuttle design... i may have a next gen shuttle design similar to yours( shuttle is the term i use for a ranger, in ksp, unless it's that one in benjee's endurance mod).

I also have a concept mission, INTEGRITY, but i will only at most write a story and post images instead of a cinematic, mainly because i have no experience recording, voicing, editing, and i don't even have a recording software.

and my computer is powered by potatoes.

My only KSP videos mainly featured raw recordings layered with some music. This is my first proper cinematic and I had a lot of fun recording and editing and being in the director's shoes. I had no experience previously, but as I learn I gain more and learn new tips and tricks.

This is what the Orion IV is based off:

A new teaser GIF, my very first in fact.

I had to re-shoot half of my footage because the first half was lacking quality unlike the 2nd.

Now I am fully satisfied, all that is left is final editing. Then I can finally upgrade my save to 0.90

by any chance, is that the Orion Nuclear propulsion spacecraft concept?

Yup, I liked the design so I replaced the back with a regular chemical engine.

I like that gif. I didn't watch the Interestellar movie quite yet, but I will be waiting for your version.

Cheers.

You are missing out on Interstellar, I mean it's sucha great and inspirational movie it inspired me to spend weeks making a 25 min cinematic, my longest yet.

It's finally out

[meve12]

It is, I think. Plates, magazines, and everything.

[SpaceXray]

The craft files are available in the spacecraft exchange and in the Zokesia SKunkworks repository.

[SpaceXray]

Should I upload to vimeo too?

[Rolanvorxariat]

Amazing. Teach me, sir.

[SpaceXray]

Amazing. Teach me, sir.

it's just a lot of trial-and-error, camera work and music sync.

[Astroman29]

Nice job with the soundtrack.
