Falcon BMS 4.34 Trailer Competition
-
Hi molnibalage,
5 minutes is not minimum. You can do much shorter if you want. We thought that up to 5 or max 8 min will be OK, but you are free to do as you like.
The logo should not be changed. -
Question. What about 3rd-party theaters and mods? Should the video contain only stock models in the default KTO theater or can demonstrate any scenario in community theaters and addon mods like new JanHas Vipers?

I’d argue that it should remain 100% stock, as it’s the trailer for the 4.34 release. A celebratory video of BMS in general would be awesome with JanHas and other theatres etc, but the BMS trailer should be stock IMO.

The idea is great but I have problems.
VIDEO LENGTH:Why is 5 min the minimum length…? The original F4.0 intro is far more shorter. OK, this will be some kind of trailer but 5 min is very long.
Like Mav-JP said, you are free to choose whatever you want. We thought it would make sense to have a “trailer” that is a bit longer than the “teaser”, but also not a 3 hours “movie”.
LOGO: Does it mean you can alter the logo? For ex. applying skin on it?
https://i.imgur.com/3y4SArm.pngLogo should be the original.
AUDIO/VIDEO: This is a very vague area to me. If I use something from here and I pay the license is it good or not? Or what about the musics which are free to avail personal use. How does this trailer count…? The problem is even harder with 5-8 min. length because very likely you need more than one music. Using any popular music seems to me impossible. —> This is a very hard restriction. Not mentioning if you wish to use RL combat radio chat in some cases? Who holds the right of these…?
We think “Planehazza” already made a good answer to this. :thumb:
DEADLINE: 31st of May 2019 This is way to close to make anything especially as long as 5 min is the minimal length. You need lots of raw material for such long video + a music license issue. First you have to find a music what can be used and not what you instantly like…
There is only four weekends until end of May. I do not know other people’s schedule but I won’t be at home from two of these weekends. Weekdays are short for a creative work. The release of BMS4.34 just happened. I did not even had time to configure BMS4.34 and learn and find again the keys for free camera or setting n+1 different Top Gun camera view. IMHO at least two months or even more span would be far better if you wish to see more participants.
Again good answer by “Planehazza” … any later and it sort of renders a release trailer kind of, well, pointless.
Sorry man, we still hope you are able to make a shorter, but much more spectacular movie in time. :typing:Question. What about 3rd-party theaters and mods?

Yes, should only be stock footage of the default KTO theaters.
For example If I wish to participate with this.
It is too short and the original music is the original F4 into.
How does this video fits into the competition?Because can imagine other type of trailer video but hardly anything which has respect towards to the great F4.0 ancestor and both BMS4.
This fits very well in the competition!
My another plan/conception was make similar video this. For this I would need older video parts and screenshots which I get from other people? What are the rules in this case? Is it allowed to make a video this way?
Nice video! If you use video parts or screenshots from other people, you should of course have their approval.
We hope the answers help.
Thanks guys for your great interest!

I’ve been working on one, but the more I rewatch the WIP, the less it feels like a trailer so I’m not sure I’ll submit mine after all.

Too bad I didn’t see this post earlier, I would really enjoy to make a video for the 4.34, I made one for 4.33 just few month ago, here is my work if you want to see. The deadline for 31st of May will be too short for a new video (I need 2 weeks I think…), not possible to change it for few days ?
Here is my video for 4.33 :

I vote give everyone more time and post this in the general section as I think alot of people may not even know about it or have seen this I wonder.

Yes, it was my first video, and I didn’t notice that, but I have been told since, so next video will be without any text !
Thanks -
Deadline extended (see first post)

Make it a sticky so peeps see it?

Is this acceptable? I added a bit feather border to the logo because it looks very ugly without it. -
Sure! Nice one molnibalage. :thumb:
Thank you for participating.

Less than 3 minutes video but I made 4K “BMS 4.34 BVR Trailer”.
The music used in the video is “Descipline” from Nine Inch Nailes and I believe Youtube contentID allows to upload it.
I wish future version of BMS improves cameras.https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rAZWaM_41PalNdS8HCamHu9XaCk1XnGN/view?usp=sharing

Very Good !!

Thank you for the submissions of your great trailer movies. As announced, we will vote in the team over the “winner”. Due to the summer time, please be patient.
Cheers,

Hello molnibalage,
Hello chihirobelmo,Thank you very much for your submissions, we were very happy about it and therefore our decision was not easy! The summer time has delayed our answer a bit, too.
At the end we have to honestly say that unfortunately neither of the two videos corresponds to a real 4.34 trailer. They are both well-made movies, no doubt about it, but …
- molnibalage’s is a fitting homage to the original Falcon 4.0 intro with a possible copyright concern. In addition, it could just as well have been made with 4.33, because unfortunately no new features can be seen.
- chihirobelmo’s taxi and takeoff scenes look terrific. The Tacview animation showing a sample of BVR tactics is great. The manuals are nice but we liked the video with two more scenes from the sim. But the descriptions referred to things “never work properly in the past” do not really fit the context at all.
Even if we do not choose a winner this time, we would like to thank you and will release both videos on the Benchmark Sims channel.
Much obliged!
