Very nice indeed, the meld of audio is super. One thing, final credits need to be more opaque and possibly bolder...difficult for me to read as presently presented.

For future videos I have a request: Melding game videos (set up specifically) with GB movie footage, making transitions from the footage to the game, or vice-versa. But wait for my Damned Red Flags please. B) :laugh:

The music from GB is so cool and yet I've learned to love the music from SoWGB much more. I loved the movie (and commented @ the utube vid) but I think you should add more dynamic videos of the gameplay instead of so many in-game pictures... just to portrait the real dynamic nature of SoWGB warfare... which is, after all, the same as we can see in the pieces of the movies you cut. :)

It's a similitude that mustn't go wasted imo. Just ... you know... a very very friendly advice and constructive critic. :)

If anyone has any idea to promote the SOW game and community in the form of some kind of a movie, post your suggestions here... B)

You've got to give a try to a MP match and take movies of the battlefield with camera restrictions. I think the best thing to show is when another player's courier message arrives.

Remember, an unregistered fraps will record up to 30 seconds and no more but it includes the audio. You can then work out a collage of mini vids to show what the game is. :)
