Cleaning out some of the shitposts off my hard drive now that I've got more free time. There's a lot to cover in on this video. Very long rant comment inbound. Read only if you're interested in what it took to make the video. First thing I'll address. The Raiders fire their weapons in full-auto once the gunfight pops off, and it was my intention to fake them firing in semi-auto by adding single shots to each instance of a muzzle discharge, which happens only a few times per spray, this, however, did not work out, as their animations and shell discharges created a dissonance between the sound and the visuals, so in the end I had to shrug and move on. Sound design overall took me about 3 days. Which was made easier by leaning more into some of the in-game sounds. Shooting it took a long long time. The rapid fire checkpoint system meant that I was constantly restarting the mission in order to capture certain events, some of which were very difficult to recreate, even things you think would just be script reliant. Filming the men walking around while you're behind them means that they are at a walking speed, but if you're in front of them, they either move at a brisker pace, or go into a full-on sprint. The gunfight was especially difficult to film, as very little was able to be recreated, and if I reloaded the entire mission, it meant that there were different enemies spawning in place of others, so the same guy rarely spawned in the same place twice, meaning the maintenance of continuity was in God's hands. This isn't of course taking into account the fact that I had to film it while trying not to get shot. This is easier on the lowest difficulty obviously, but that means you risk seeing friendly name tags on screen occasionally. This didn't actually happen that often, but it did get in the way of some otherwise good shots. There's also the matter of the grenade indicator, which did trash a ton of shots I had. For some reason, the enemies on the other side of the trains are far more likely to continuously throw grenades at you. So, I'll be securing a nice shot and then a big red icon shows up on my screen. I'd go to realistic mode if it weren't for the fact that the area I was in was sighted by the machinegun 24/7. Which was another issue, btw. Getting shot by it is trouble enough, but keeping lighting continuity is another task to throw into the pile. I could have two similar shots of a dude running up to cover, but one will have him spotlighted by the gun, and another won't, so those two shots can't go together. Overall, it's obviously using the in-game systems very-much NOT for their intended use. Either way, despite all that said, it was still pretty doable by the end. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk. Hope you enjoyed the video, guys. I'm gonna go play DOOM: Eternal for a little while.
Well done dude, very impressive, especially after hearing the hell you went through to get it done... Speaking of hell, Doom: Eternal Cinematic when???
@@cupcakemcsparklebutt9051 no, he used Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2019's theater mode to make these guys do what he wants... although he most went with one of the campaign mission to use as a template... Am I getting Woooshed?
I consider myself to be in a position of privilege when it comes to media. I can watch historical war films and not give a shit who wins, it's great. My country (Canada) is never portrayed as the villains. Well... Well, except for the South Park movie.
1:23 it is honestly chilling to realize that this sound of the jet coming in is the last sound many people have heard moments before their death. The realism of the audio engineering in this game is amazing
Glad to know I'm not the only one sick of the whisper quiet "Psh" media makes it out to be. Even heavier suppressors with subsonic rounds still make quite the CRACK.
Absolutely well done! It still bugs me how they used White Phosphorus for that airstrike and dropping in so close to the facility like they're begging to have a welcoming party
Ikr?? And you might think the striking team would use at least a respirator, entering in unknown territory where you dunno what might been ignited after the bombing.
You and your friends being stealthy in Spec Ops and taking enemies down in calculated constructed attacks being executed with an organized team of veteran players 2:34 One AI solider detects you 3:58 You going to do the wolf’s den?
The final shot of the chemical weapons, the musical score and overall feeling of actually getting eyes on that kind of horrible stuff is down right chilling. 10/10 excellent work!
Wow dude ! the work you have put in to this is just insane ! At the bigenning I thought it was Infinity Ward made ! I am a camera and steadicam operator and I think the shots are spot on, the tension build up nicely during the cinematic it is very very well made ! I really enjoyed it thanks dude !
Wow! This is insane! It looks like as if you're using cinematic tools, so seamless. I can't even think of how much effort it must have taken you to capture the footage. Amazing work!
Every shot for room-clearing at 3:32 had as few as 12 takes to as high as 24, simply because each shot had to be perfectly timed to the action, and getting decent cinematography inside that space was almost impossible, especially shots that were in front of the characters.
@evan royalty U did a very good job man! Many years ago I started making videos and films in cod2 and cod4, and i remember how much work there was behind a simple fragmovie. In my times we had the possibilities to remove many things like icons, names through the console. I think in modern games the developers are taking u more and more the opportunity to make sth cinematic. This work is reall great, i love it. As a filmstudent I know how much work u had on this and while I read your description, I felt your pain and passion in one. Great job! Hope there will be much more from you!
Everything from 6:07 till the end of the movie looked so real. (not saying the rest of the cinematic was bad, it was fucken awesome) Am looking forward to Overlord, keep it up man!
It always amazes me, how you are able to potray these missions in a complete new light. Keep going, you are one of the most entertaining and creative youtubers one can see. Especially your SCP videos are probably one of the best videos to exist on this site.
Holy goodness I haven't seen the gameplay of MW and for a second I thought this was some new game trailer and how did COD dive into Milsim. The perefect NVG vision and the gunsounds with ambient atmosphere. This guy is a genius.
What the flip this is mad! Well done i can imagine how long this must take, planning the angels, the timing, the movement and not to mention sound design, really great job mate. Keep it up!
I'm getting flashbacks to the wonderful michaelbarnes cinematic rendition of MW2's 'No Russian' level. No matter how much you self-deprecate, my man, you're producing good stuff. I found this channel for the early SCP stuff, but I _stayed_ for the overall quality. That's not to say that I never have anything to criticize. I've done as much on previous videos, but...well, you make videos that warrant taking a while to find and/or articulate what might improving. You seem to consistently put in a whole lot of time and effort for your videos, and as such it's hard to find instinctive hip-fire criticism that you get with the more target-rich environments. Or, to put it much shorter and in broken English: you are making the good cinema, please to be continuing yes
@@Yurik-the-marksman The original is gone (it was hosted on Machinima, and they nuked their whole channel a while back), but here's the video code for a reupload: tERsDCQ3tfA
Its the little interactions with the minor squadmates that made me like MW2. You felt connected to the supporting characters. I just wish this game capitalized more on that.
Hey have you ever considered using Arma 3 for your Machinimas, the scripting tools along with the literal thousands of mods may be a great way for you to tell stories with built in camera tools. I love what your doing, keep up the good work!
I've considered it, but it seems like such a pain in the ass. It's also just not that great looking and just runs horribly on my PC. Maybe one of these days, but don't count on it.
For all the people making jokes about the flashlights going off on their own, have you ever used a WML with a momentary-on pressure pad? It may as well be the dead man switch of torches.
Your channel has to be the first channel i've watched in a minute where I've decided to go ahead and turn the notifications on for. This is just too good to pass up.
Meu Deus esse vídeo foi simplesmente incrível, cara eu não sei como vocês fazem pra fazer esses ângulos de câmera mas é perfeito fica parecendo cena de filme mesmo, excelente vídeo.
😳 I read your TED Rant....I'm VERY IMPRESSED by the end results. The lighting and sound were spot on, I appreciate it more now that I know it was hell to get the results you wanted. The price to pay for getting the shot JUST RIGHT is having to play the mission over and over and over again, then you edit, then you play the mission over and over again 😑... the things artist will do👍🏼for their creations 🤭
Great work from you once again! Glad I found and fell in love with your content! With this quarantine going out to shoot is becoming harder, so I nice to have the itch scratched by your videos!

Hope you enjoyed the video, guys. I'm gonna go play DOOM: Eternal for a little while.
So what you're saying is you filmed this in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare?
I'm shocked
Well done dude, very impressive, especially after hearing the hell you went through to get it done...
Speaking of hell, Doom: Eternal Cinematic when???
Yes doom eternal is the game to relax to after some stressful times
If there are cinematic tools in Doom eternal, I may consider it.
Thanks for giving us this, enjoy your Eternal binge, Evan.
"All the characters have become my new sleep paralysis demons." Must be one hell of a tactical nightmare wouldn't it?
Lmao would be pretty loud
It wouldn't be sleep paralysis because they would kill you before you could wake up.
I think you mean wet dream
it would be a very tactiCOOL dream
PTSD without going to war be like:
2:35 Don't you just love it how their flashlights magically turn themselves off when they die?
Yeah we made jokes about that early on. Shot looks cool, but it makes no sense.
Maybe they broke when the person fell on top of it, or it is facing towards the ground.
Or maybe the bullet shot the flashlight.
Maybe its some sort of tactical flashlight that has a button that you need to hold on to to keep it on, not sure if thats a real thing though
@@Desaster40k They do exist :)
seriously, your cinematics are incredible.

Am I getting Woooshed?
@@navb0tactual nah probably not, but the way he can use theatre mode makes it look real.
Me, a Russian speaker, hearing the 'enemies' speaking Russian during this mission:
*oh...*
I consider myself to be in a position of privilege when it comes to media. I can watch historical war films and not give a shit who wins, it's great. My country (Canada) is never portrayed as the villains.
Well...
Well, except for the South Park movie.
Asgeir The story of the mission is that they didn’t know there would be Russians on the base. Also Russians are good guys in Spec Ops mode

The sound design was on point wow - sounded incredible on my studio headphones x_x
It sounded incredible on my phone too
He used audio from Escape from Tarkov with a suppressed weapon for the Marine’s M4A1 and modified it to blend better into the environment.
@@noodles5438 ooh really? I play EFT gonna watch again and see if I can recognise the sounds :P
weird flex but okay
Mr.Whaler literally says in his pinned comment that he used in game sound
Now, a year later, we take for granted how good this game looks.
Indeed
1:23 it is honestly chilling to realize that this sound of the jet coming in is the last sound many people have heard moments before their death. The realism of the audio engineering in this game is amazing
Not gonna lie, I would be totally chill if the last sound I heard before I died was the sound of a roaring afterburning turbofan engine.
Or the sound of a AC-130 prepping to engage.
Very well done man, and I love how the Suppressed shots aren't completely silent, cuz it's realistic to the way it actually is.
Glad to know I'm not the only one sick of the whisper quiet "Psh" media makes it out to be. Even heavier suppressors with subsonic rounds still make quite the CRACK.
@@ValhallaAMV Hell brother shit is mad annoying
@@ValhallaAMV by definition subsonic ammo won't have a "crack", but I get what you're saying.
glad to know the truth. Coz I was so skeptical that why their weapons still make such a big sound with suppressors on.
@@DaGyi Yea it's not like how they show in movies or most games
I love when they say “drop em” and all the flash lights die out one by one
The fact that the first mission is called Fog of War really sets the tone for the game
Absolutely well done!
It still bugs me how they used White Phosphorus for that airstrike and dropping in so close to the facility like they're begging to have a welcoming party
Ikr?? And you might think the striking team would use at least a respirator, entering in unknown territory where you dunno what might been ignited after the bombing.
I've played this campaign so many times on realism difficulty that I've started to clear rooms in my house with my phone

Evan Royalty Just make sure to keep you creative vision sharp.
@@EvanRoyalty How about Piccadilly then?
Evan Royalty you should just do every mission and combine them together
4 mins and 39 seconds is how long it took me to realize this was a game
Lmao I thought it was real also
The final shot of the chemical weapons, the musical score and overall feeling of actually getting eyes on that kind of horrible stuff is down right chilling.
10/10 excellent work!
This is my favorite cinematic ever. Thank you for the time and dedication you put into making this masterpiece. Truly underrated.
After replaying this mission 500 times for this video, all the characters have since become my new sleep paralysis demons.
*o* *k*

@@EvanRoyalty I have huge respect for you to achieve this. And it looks and sounds so damn good. All that work did pay off!
Damn, this was cool! The cinematic and the music made the mission kinda eerie and spooky near the end.
That was like if the CoD cut scene people made a movie, I did enjoyed watching the short film
Yeah movie fog of war is better than game
dood i would give this man my life savings to make movies about war like anything
I respect the time and effort put into this you blew the finished product out of the park. Love the video and keep up the great work.
This is just insane! Imagine if this game let you use commands like they used to

Holy crap, this is awesome, dude. If you take requests, we would LOVE to see your take on the Hunting Party mission.
Amazing sound design! The shots off the silencers sound amazing, unlike the unrealistic pew you hear most often. Amazing job!
The editing and sound mixing reminds me of Sicario. Well done.
Amazing filmography mate
I legit thought this was a real life remake. Damn, these graphics are amazing!! 😍
Yeah it looks great! If I didn’t play the game I would’ve thought it was a movie scene.
