    AAR Video: JohnFlenaly Landing Helo Mar 24

    Helo Landing.

    A brief video record of JohnFlenaly landing a helocopter to extract a squad at the Estate.

    I have been interested for some time now in how the ‘self’ is experienced within first-person point of view games such as Project Reality. Through the use of in-game video, we can add another layer of experience to the game when our actions are recorded for review later on, thus allowing for an external view, a third-person point of view, of our own in-game actions. Thus this brief video, in what may be a series of videos, that re-presents the actions of individuals within the game, adding to their first-person point of view a third-person perspective. This part of my ongoing exploration of the possibilties of virtual video ethnography, a field which is so new, it’s not on google yet!

    I have included two versions below. Please tell me which looks better on your monitor (screen). The second version has been rendered with a lightening filter, which will either make it appear easier to see or overexposed, depending upon your own monitor settings. I always set my monitor to 'Day Movie' when in-game, as otherwise I find things to darkly drawn.

    (Rendered without any filter.)

    For a better viewing experience, download and play.
    This will give you a larger 640x480 screen.



    Enjoy.

    Nice but you have like ten minutes of black after the video.

    With lighting filter looks better on my monitor.

    Being about to record all voices in the squad will, I believe, be the jump forward in your movie career. How's that going ?

    Thanks for the feedback.

    Still working on the sound issue. I may need a real sound card (my sound is on the cpu board).

    FLV- it's an Adobe format. You can use VideoLAN or choose from among the players listed on the Wiki page.

    Nice vid. The lighting filtered one looks best on my CRT @ work (don't tell my boss). Nice flying John! Very smooth approach and landing.

    I vote for the filter.
