Rong is probably the most controversional player in 2015. The movie includes frags from 3on3 officials, cups and scrims. Frags are from the second half of 2015 due to a computer change and resulting loss of demos.
This was an interesting project. At first I was not interested, but after seeing some Fraps clips Rong put together of his frags, I was convinced. Be warned, this movie includes heavy syncing on nearly every frag. All syncing was done in Vegas. The musical choices (multiple electronic songs) were made to keep the movie interesting, with as little repetition as possible.
Enjoy!

e: sick frags sick editing sick syncing
not so sick config :x ( but that's personal )
edit. otherwise looks cool.liked the music :P
perfect 5/7
representing kAAPURITARIT since 2010 (get rekt noobs)
ps. Rong is skinny
The comments of opponents are quite gay though, dont understand why thats included :(
outlaw disconnected
YOU MY HERO!
obviously only 3on3 frags, not that special my friend
why not uploading mental moments sungi? i liked the way you made that movie
Fake logs confirmed, cu
fragmovie worthy :s
Putting irc games where ppl used fake nicks and play like dogs is not movie worthy imo.
Watching this movie was like going to the club tho :D:D.
And I'm not in the movie gg.
Don't think ET is alive enough to make a full movie out of 6 months of offis only. Also the custom popup thing was for convenience too, since I could freely edit the clip without any 2D elements being fucked up too (I also used a custom crosshair because of this).
The Outlaw disconnect. Played you quite often and you ragequited a couple of times during those wars. Why the hell would you brag about someone ragequiting while you are the king of ragequit?
then the butchji kill... Seems unlikely to me that he played some random 3o3 vs Rong while being away from ET for such a long time.

The outlaw quit wasn't Rongs idea, it was mine. And it was in an offi. So hate me not him!
BTW u mad brah?
i think this movie was pretty cool, the butchji frag was kinda stupid, but at least it was synced with the music :D
the frag on rifleman for example was more pointless.
anyway i dont know who is this guy, but i remember the first time we played against him sebi raged so much :D

Some people here would absolutely not put these same comments if the fragger was someone else than Rong.
Good edit but bad frags -_-
liked most of the frags as well.
gj imo

Liked the music and the sync was awesome at times
Nearly best overall music choices I've seen in an ET movie. At least in a while. 8)
+ editing:
Cool syncing frags with not so forced slowmo/fastforard. I was suffering from this issue in my last project.
+ music:
Although it's not my taste it fits perfectly with synced frags.
+/- frags:
Some nice shooting here but there's also few not so impresive frags. Besides that I'm not big fan of aim-only movies (exceptions are sick sprees like Lun4t1c - Primal Instinct) and some variety of frags would be nice to see.
+/- cameras:
Technically this aspect seems to be fine (camera following the action, no "stopped" end) but they're boring in case of little smg frags.
- popups:
I'm traditionalist here and prefer classic popups with fully qualified nicknames.
- quality:
I appreciate effort using high framerate (and as final 60 fps) but config is really bad. Aside from being dark and low resolution (chuckle of fragmoviemaking history in background...) the motion blur is ugly. When you pause you will see it's almost like ghosting (mostly noticable in fast forwarding). What img_blurSamples did you use ingame? Did you enable supersampling/ressampling in Vegas?
Anyway don't get me wrong. That was nice (above average) movie and you seem to be skillful moviemaker enough and understanding overall know-how. Especially when it comes to technical aspects of this process it actually could be really easy to fix/improve. Hope you'll review few things and surprise in the future with another productions. :)
The frags are from under 6 months time of 3on3, so we picked what we could (so sadly no spam frags)
I'm no camera expert, but we needed some to fill some gaps in the movie. I know its not
As for the quality, I didn't have enough room in my hard drive for 1080p video (1080p 240fps videos take up over 2 times the space of 720p 240). Since I couldn't use IMAGE motionblur cause of the syncing, I recorded with 240fps and sampled w/ vegas to 60fps. I considered leaving motion blur completely off, but the "ghosting" effect u mentioned isn't noticeable when watching it on 60fps.

Maybe I was wrong about ghosting but something isn't right. The problem with Vegas ressampling is the quality and smoothness. Sure it's pretty smooth but blur is too intensive. It should follow the rule:
Lesser framerate -> bigger exposure
Bigger framerate -> lesser exposure
Also 240 / 60 = 4 - this is how many frames you're using for blending into single frame and trust me it's waaaaaaaaaay too low. Image-ET could perfectly solve your issues with img_blurSamples (above 20 is just fine). Also you could adjust exposure for your needs so there won't "gaps" between scenes with changed velocity.
Anyway better would be with turned off motion blur in this case. Maybe I'm a little bit oversensitive but I've spent hours in adjusting my config (with ag0n's assistance) so I could see things what people couldn't do usually.

I think it looked fine where (I tried with and without vegas blur, and it looked better with)

Maybe it's a little too high exposure but this is perfect example of what I'm talking about - smooth blur when moving/strafing/turning etc. (even video pausing) Hope it will give you some ideas but it's not necessary at all. Just wanted make you aware of some nuances behind quality.
