WATCH THE VIDEO AND READ THE DESCRIPTION BOX BEFORE ASKING CERTAIN QUESTIONS.
Well, its been over a year since I last did a video on YT. Suppose it was just not much in the way of driving force to get me posting a vid up. Though with Asalieri's WhenevertheHell contest returning, I felt it was a suitable enough reason to make another video.
Decided to stick with doing a review, but decided to go for a unique twist. A stop motion review and decided to use one of the things I collect, being Transformers. This was actually thought about for a year in doing, since it was something I wanted to try out.
This review was pretty much inspired by Thew Adams who to me is the most interesting and enjoyable of the Transformer reviewers on YT due to his comical rock nature that makes it a joy. Though I do give the Lazy Eyebrow Reviewer some credit as he does stop motion reviews of Transformers (though I didn't really discover him until the early days since the contest started, but thought I'd at least credit him to prevent someone claiming I ripped his style off).
Wish I could have had a more enjoyable experience making this review, but instead it became more stressful than fun. Mainly due to things happening around the time of production, like my Grandad passing away, only able to do the stop motion work at night to keep consistant lighting, teething problems with certain programs and equipment as well as the review needing to be trimmed or scenes removed due to time length or special effects not working (like the Blue/Green screen) as well as the lighting issues with the Scrapper, Mixmaster and Scavenger scenes.
In the end, the review came out alright. Not exactly as I would have liked (due to time restrictions) as well as the blue/green screen effects being naff on Sony Vegas all of a sudden. Left wondering if I should even consider getting the upgrade for the laptop.
Would I ever do this type of review ever again?... Probably will, but definitely not for a contest with restrictions, especially if its going to be a multi pack review.
Still, hope you lot enjoyed it more than how I felt working on it. Think next time I'll go back to simple reviewing.
