So, in the PS2 section, I posted about how I was going to make a trailer for PS2. Some of the ideas posted in that thread were already things I had in mind.

I'll post progress here, and hopefully I'll have something at the end of the night.

This keeps me accountable, and its less likely that i'll give up. I'll also be joining IRC.

Here's the music I'm using. It didn't take me too long to edit, because it was something I already wrote most of the parts for. (http://soundcloud.com/dmaix/ps2-trailer-v1)

I'm not good at photoshop.

I'm animating the opening sequence. First time I've used Motion. Its just a basic camera move, but its also a learning experience! That more than I can say about college right now.

Learning is fun! I've got some more ideas about what I may be able to do with Motion. Downloaded, and just re-encoded from mp4 to something Final Cut will work with.

I bumped the power cord. Crap. Not much was lost. Editing is coming along nicely though.

I'm about to pull my hair out. I just need 1-2 more good clips. I've already used all the good ones. I guess I'll have to settle.

Done. Exporting. Upload might take a while though.

I will x-post in the PS2 forums when its done uploading.

Also you need anything doing on Photoshop, let me know. And if you can add your details to the video I will play it on 247, but would prefer you got some recognition for your work.
