Advice on Cinematic

[Captain Sierra]

So this is a teaser of a cinematic I'm doing for the heck of it. I'm doing a little bit of work with kerbcam, but not a whole lot because I'm still new to it. Opinions, comments, suggestions, and cosntructive criticism are all welcome.

After reading about your post on Near Future thread this is pretty much similar in essence to a cinematic i did a month ago, Its called ANIMA-M, im planning to do another called ANIMA-EOS.

Im definitively going to watch this when its done, i like the alternative thruster power!

Just something I've learned to do...

Listen to the music, most songs can be broken down into repetitive sets, then there is a group of those sets before escalation or deescalation of the song.

Use the changes between sets to switch shots so the change in music matches the change in video.

Use the changes in groups to switch subject, make bigger transitions/time movements.

Good luck and some nice work so far.

I know this song inside out. The point at which I cut off is where it spikes to something more dramatic, so bigger crafts, cooler camera work, and general higher order of badassery is required right there and it does that twice. I've already figured out one of them, I'm still not 100% sure on the first, but I definitely know what it feels like should be there so I'll be doing several more action shots and bigger, cooler crafts, etc.
