JAJAJA totalmente

play the map

@@jakub_skoupy gotcha

Good shit man, consistently bringing quality. How did you make the volumetric lighting? (might have tweaked it by hand a little, as it was too intense in some places). also, what's up with the circle around 3:32?

@@jakub_skoupy Thanks! That circle around 3:32 is basically all around the movie, but only visible sometimes (not always as a circle), as it usually reacts to the stronger light, brighter spots etc. This is one of the plugins I bought one time, that I've been using for years because I just really like it. A bit repetetive from me but most of my movies have it because I just like how it looks :D Also I usually dont make it too visible, that's why you can only spot it sometimes, when in fact it is there from the beginning to the end on the adjustment layer :P As for the volumetric lightning, it's also not much, the baseline for it is the map itself - there is fog around the map + it has a lot of spots with something really close to light rays, coming out of the ceiling, holes etc. Just getting the right shot is already big chunk of it, plain campath, clean, without any effects already looks cool. Then all I do is little adjusting, some plugin for light rays is there, but then it's just playing with RGB curves, brightness and contrast + different blending modes to make it more visible. Also each shot is recorded on one stream, so there is no depth streams or anything like that, so basically is just taking advantage of a beauty of specific map and adjusting in slightly during editing

Congratulations CyniuThunder for this so awesome edit! I loved all the details of the entire video and the crazy stuff you did in 4:21 onwards. 4:31 blew my mind, because before watching this edit, I was listening a song and I imagined a similar scenario, but not on a specific map, of that angle viewed from above, with a similar lighting and ambient. And that brought me here after years without knowing whats going on in XJ and I find this amazing synchronicity of what you did in your video, I'm just amazed!. Thank you so much for this!
