This is the first movie of the ML Chronicles, Enjoy!
Good movie
That is a great movie, I can't wait to see Chapter 2!
yea i know man i want to see it too!
Now gonna add to youtube
As for the video, the heavy use of voice work certainly makes it different from what we've seen before in MxO vids.
Unfortunately, this can be both good and bad. Voice and Mic quality are absolutely vital. Overall it was definately good but there are a couple of nasty microphone spikes and background fuzz, again, unfortunately, one or two blemishes like that really detract from the overall experience.
My one piece of advice would be to really work hard perfecting the quality of audio.
The Nice Part
Pretty good. Well shot with good location choice. Nice use of voice acting. Good actors. No obvious lag in the shots. Good overall quality.
The "Where do lynch mobs get the torches from?" Part
*To the makers and actors of the film. Do not read the following if you do not have a thick skin. I write this meaning to help you improve on your product in the future*
If you put up a 200+ meg download tell people it's a 200+ meg download. 30+ minutes for me to download that. heh. I don't think it needed to be that big of a file either but that's just my personal opinion.
Credits are too long at the beginning. One fifth of the movie is title and credits.
Voice actors must enunciate. I had a difficult time understanding what some of the characters were saying. With no mouth to look at enunciation is very important. Speak slowly and clearly. It's not a race. heh. If the character is a fast talker make sure to pronounce each and every syllable.
Occasionally there was far to much dead air between characters speaking. It's gotta POP man... gotta have rhythm. lol.
Dialogue was stilted at points and made little sense to me sometimes. I don't know any of these people. Never met a FA. I was a bit confused as to who these folks in white were for quite a while.
The movie was too long for what it was in my opinion. A number of scenes could have been shortened without touching the dialogue or basic actions of the characters.
The Final Result
Good job. A lot of things in this movie you don't see in a lot of MxO movies. Like voice acting.
Not for action junkies.
out of 5.
*p.s. Residual Self Image is where these are supposed to go I believe.*
Couple of other things,
At the begining theres a reference to someones controller calling them. I dont think that's quite right. Controllers are people like tyndall, flood and gray. Operators are the ship/crew guys.
Also, and i know this is nitpicking but i have to say it all the same as feedback, some of the dialogue and scripts are quite... err... unmatrixy. Now i don't know what any of you are like IC but i dunno, it just doesn't feel entirely 'cool' at times.
Wow dude, chill.
Audio quality in this context is mostly down to software/voice technique/mic positioning/audio format.
Claiming to need a high quality professional mic is a little uneducated...
Its a great movie, with some minor faults. I am sorry for trying to help the makers out for their next one.
Though, without feedback nothing would ever get better ya know.
