New beginning to Snetterton videos.
« on: November 18, 2016, 04:14:00 AM »
Just spent the last 4 hours swearing at the mozzies and working on screenshots and an idea for the intro to the race for the video. 

Now that I see the bottom bar and logo size in 1920x1080 while the video is playing I realise it needs to be smaller.

I have taken a screenshot of each car on the grid and added it into the video with the position:drivername:qualtime on the bottom bar as shown in the screenshot.  I'll make the text a bit smaller along with the width of the bars etc. The text is a separate layer so I can edit it to put in whatever you guys want.. but with only 3 seconds to view each driver I figured this was enough info.  I can add PB laps during the race if I have access to that info?

Thoughts, ideas and feedback welcome. Scroll the image to see the rest of it.

It looks like a lot of work for you, but it looks good.

It's easy a 10-15 hour job until I get used to doing it and have a workflow then the times come down..

And AJ was impersonating rooshooter in the yellow car so it's going to be a lil confusing as to who is who, so I'll get the car ID # and put text at the bottom of who is who during the race when I can.

I don't mind doing the work, it's all part of me learning something more than my usual and it's keeping me occupied and motivated

We can just be confused this round and get better next round with aligning cars. Phil has it down pat now. With a VID this week I can create new name/glass files with the most easily read font from this week's experience.  Give you a couple of hours off :)

Made the bottom bar smaller and lower so it doesn't overlay some of the camera angles as much. Shrunk the text down 1 extra point to fit, I think it looks better now.

The adjustments are only time consuming because it's tedious.

Well I'm not sure about the 2nd race because I haven't got the replay, but in the first race I had my headlights on and rooshooter didn't if that helps :)
