What about green screening? Like you know that video with the guy being chased by a Hind and all.

I'm trying to avoid the OFP camera as much as possible becuase, quite frankly, it sucks. ;D
HumHum.

hello,

good news to hear about the competition. A quick query: how much are we allowed to make effects (like text and pictures) appear in the movie (in avi, mpg or wmv format) not using flashpoint? does every bit of text have to come from flashpoint and then be recorded?

cheers

Does it have to be all OFP? Am I allow to add stuff like green screening, special effects, etc? As long as the bulk is OFP it's ok, right?

You're allowed to edit the video, yes. As long as the cutscene itself is done in OFP, we don't mind about editing the video like adding fades, credits, voice dub ect.

Greenscreening is ok too. You can have yourself chased by a T80 for all I care, as long as the T80 is from flashpoint's T80. Catch my drift? You can do what ever you like with the video, as long as the base is done with OFP.
Wether the judges will care more about a traditional cutscene or a video editing masterpiece, I cannot say, it's about their opinion.

Not all is lost.

There will be more news soon.    We're just sorting out the details and the submission interface.      Competition closing date will be between Christmas and New Year so you will have to act fast.    Also deciding if messiah will be allowed to enter in view of his name.    ;D   The answer is yes of course ... very sound chap, messiah.   Wrote some handy tutes like the camera.sqs tutorial.   Jolly good little tutorial that.

decided to check ofpec today - lmao - nice one  ;D

thanks for the compliment

Since you're the king of cutscenes, why not submit one yourself, ey ;)
Get those missions out there you morons!

A quick question, if we are submitting a recording (WMV, etc), do we need to include all the Addon information (mirror links, what it is, etc) in the ReadMe?

Thanks.
James.

Links are not mandatory (though preferred so that if a viewer loves something he sees, he can download it with ease) when submitting in video format. What still remains is a list of the used addons and their author/mod team.

Due to the unfortunate OFPEC downtime, the closing date for submissions in the Christmas Cutscene Competition 2005 is extended to
2nd of January 2006 at 12:00 GMT

You got a couple of more days to work on your cutscene. Go go go!  :)

how are these actually marked ?
Is it on camera angles and good shots or more like the idea/concept of the video
