Random Farcry 3 Bullshittery - Update #4

Added 2017-02-23 18:22:57 +0000 UTC

I've made this video update if you fancy listening instead of reading. And there's a short teaser here.

It's almost the end of week 3 on Random Farcry 3 Bullshittery and the status is: 12 minutes fully edited out of 15 minutes in total.

There's still an important segment missing though (and I'll need to figure out how Photoshop's puppeteer tool works). And there's still a lot of QA to do. But I'm hoping to polish it all off next week and have it ready for you next weekend.

Structure wise it's been a fairly simple video. I'm trying to inject animated text in places that seem appropriate, but much of the dialogue is first person and static at the base of the screen. So I'm trying to liven things up. The main challenge has been cutting. As (currently) there are 225 video/audio cuts, 529 subtitle sentences, supported by 21 After Effects compositions. So it's quite...meaty. I kept the 10 hours of stream footage hoping to make a narrative-heavy Alien Isolation thing, instead of just keeping clips for easy bullshittery editing. So it's almost like having to reverse engineer a bullshittery episode out of the wrong type of footage, if that makes sense.

Will have it ready for you as soon as I can :)
