I get a lot of questions about how I
prepare my videos. Here are some tips:
1) Please take a look at the Machinima and Video Recording pages in the second life Wiki, and Torley's Video Tutorial creation process page. Everything is there. Really!
If you still want to do how I do film my stuff, here's how:
2) The built-in video capture feature
of the SL client is broken, deprecated,
and will be removed in a future release.
There are a number of programs to
capture video, I'm using FRAPS, it's
unexpensive and works very well.
3) I'm using Sony Vegas Movie Studio
Platinum for editing. Again, it's
unexpensive and it has a lot of nice
features.
4) I shoot all my footage at 1024x768,
30 fps. To generate the uploadable
movies, I create Windows Media 9 movies
at 640x480, 23.9 fps, "good"
quality, music at VBR quality.
5) The extreme WindLight settings I use
come from experimenting. I start with
some extreme preset, like "Sailor's
delight", and begin to play with
the sliders.
6) You can get really amazing effects
with water by playing with the Fresnel
parameters.
