Video Explanations

OMG thanks a lot Kikka! This little tutorial is really awesome! You helped me a lot with masking!

awww thankies! I'm so happy it is so helpful *______*

Aw. Kikka-chan!<33

Hun. If I may ask. Your videos are always so HD where do you download them from? @@ and when you render it what do you do to keep them so HD? xD do you have specific types of settings?

uhmmm it depends, I downloaded the CC clips from YT [and I'm still downloading them], the XIII clips from mediafire, ACC with a torrent... blah blah blah .___. you need some clips in particular? 8D

oooh and when I render a whole video I always choose "High definition (1280x720)" in image size [video folder in the rendering window], then I put "29,970 (NTSC)" in frame rate and the video smoothness at 100.
then [in the project folder] I use "use project settings" in video rendering quality [in the project settings I have "Good" in full resolution rendering quality, so if you don't want to change it from the project settings you just choose "good" in the rendering window in video rendering quality ]

tell me if you don't understand XD

Wah. Thanks hun xD that's what I need =3
Every time I upload a video it always seems like it's a little blurry lol *__*
<333
BTW~I downloaded the ending of CC's ending with HD on YT and I don't know why it's so blurry. Like there's alot of pixels. Maybe I should re-download it xD haha.

I don't know why I haven't read this post before .____.
anyway I'm glad that it helped ;D
and if you want I'm downloading all CC clips in eng from him: RandomChannelPlox
the only thing is that he put all the game... so there are a looooot of parts and most of them are only a gameplay without cutscene! that's why it is taking a lot to download -.-''
but he has the cutscenes of a lot of different games! even dissidia and dissidia 012!

if you want the ending is here:

Thanks hun *____*
Love you!!<33333333333

no prob ;DDD

Kikka saves us all with her great HQ scenes <3

I totally forgot to tell you that your method works!! Thank you so much!! <3
Now for my next problem ugh, well I just got Vegas Pro 11 and I started masking but when you have open the clip you are masking in the crop/pan section and you pull the timeline stick.. thing *forgot its name D:* along timeline? *confusing o.e* it does not show the video clip in the preview section, It just stays on one frame.

If you do need pictures or videos, I'm willing to upload to show you. Does anyone know how to fix this?

=D I'm happy it works =D
uhmmm I don't know if it is the same with Vegas 11 I use vegas 10 [they shouldn't be different anyway U.U] but I fixed this problem like the other one xD
I just put the same frame rate of the clip I'm masking in the project settings... but if you have already tried this way and it doesn't work it maybe should be another problem... I'll tell you if I'll find something ;DDD

It didn't work D: , I guess I'll go back to the good old Sony Vegas 10, thanks anyway Kikka ^^!

Now, does anyone have some tips on masking Noctis, hes being a bitch and I don't like it =,=

I've got the same problems with masking Noctis.. why is he always in such dark backgrounds? My eyes are okay but sometimes I can't tell if I'm still masking his hair or the background xD

He's always hard *__*
What I usually do is zoom into his face and only mask part of his hair lol. What you can also do is mask what you "think" is there and then brighten up the clip after you are done xD

Oh! side note to all members.

NEVER AND I MEAN NEVER! BRIGHTEN UP A CLIP AND MASK!! NEVER DO THAT!!
YOU ALWAYS MASK FIRST! AND THEN BRIGHTEN UP THE CLIP!!
That way. There won't be a solid white line around the characters.

Noctis is hell for masking... His hair dances all around his head and with dark background you don't know where his hair starts and where it ends @___@

xO I'm sorry I can't help you xO anyway Noctis' hair are really difficult to mask! the only thing you need is a LOOOOOOOOT of patience, and the granny's tricks xDD I made a lot of different paths only for his hair [like one for any tuft xDD] and it is hard anyway! o.o

How dare you call Noctis a Bitch!! *RAWRR*
lolz jk jk
Yesh. Like my kikka has said. It is very hard to mask Noctis. Just use the tips that Kikka and I have given. Hopefully he can be less a Bit*h after that lolz.

Masking alert!!
Noel is also very annoying I must add him to my ' Hate to Mask list '.

ahahah xD all the FF XIII and also versus characters are really annoying XD they are too realistic and they have too many particulars xDD

Yes. I agree my honey bees. @@ Stupid Enix! lol
But I love Enix for giving me Noctis and Aerith. So I'll forgive them *___*

We can share Noctis around ? o3o

Noctis is mine and mine alone!! >=D lol jk jk. Yes! we can all team up to rape him! lol

Thats a good plan you got there. *totally spamming the forum now >*

Haha! that's great! >=D anyone else wanna join?

Who wouldn't want to join in D:?
