Star Citizen - Calhoun Run - Fighter Chase Scene

"In his attempt to escape Clarice's rage, Lucky commandeers an Avenger and makes his getaway. Unfortunately for him Ava is on his tail."
This is an extended version of the chase scene from Episode 8 Of Silky Lips. For a shorter, faster feeling cut see that episode here:

This was great -- lots of coordination and thought went into it, I can tell. What's also impressive is seeing how much you cut down for the final edit -- very professional -- one of the hardest things to do is "drown / kill your babies" as they say. Also, pulling out of that high altitude dive into rising terrain at 1:45 was intense. Keep it up!

Thanks for the feedback Mate. I saw an interview with Denis Villeneuve, talking about Dune 2 and 'killing your babies' (same exact reference as yours!) where he explained that it's all about the story and pace, so even though you have this really cool shot, if it impacts the pace or story, off to the cutting floor it goes. Took that approach to this episode during the final editing stage, (especially this chase scene) and took out all the parts which felt slow.
I cut it very close on that dive scene... not too sure how I managed to not scrape the ground and burn up honestly LOL I like the fact you actually see a quick glimpse of flowers when I hit the lowest point. ...plus dive shots like that look really cool. 😁

@@lordporksword3837 awesome! And yes, story always comes first, which is why, even if you have an out of focus shot, but the performance is better, advice is to go with the better performance.
