Thread: Using horror video games as movies

Tweet

I haven't tried this yet but it might be cool. With so many horror games (resident evil, silent hill, etc.) displayed in 1st person view, it might be cool to record some gameplay clips where you're walking towards or running away from zombies/monsters and show them back using either big screen tvs or as projections. It might look something like this scene from Resident Evil on game cube



The easiest way to record is simply attach or game cube/xbox or ps2/3 through your dvd recorder or vcr and just start recording. Once you've accumulated enough recorded playtime, you could upload to your computer and start editing out scores or changes to a create a nice little 2-3 min mini movie.

There are also some easy to use 3D CGI program out there we could use to create our own scene. I have to many now, so say my lady. LOL
Some of them have a great library of FREE materials and resources.

Resident Evil 4. That was the most creepy in the series. It would be awesome to theme an entire haunt from that, but most of the TOT'ers in my area are too young to know what that was all about.

I think that's a great idea! I have wanted to include CGI in my home haunt and my pro haunt, but I was trying to go with 3D programs such as Poser (which is simply awesome for the price) but I have no idea how to implement them. A video projector would be the best way to do it.

Do any of you have a video to show me what you are refering to?

I have poser and several 3D CIG programs. I have used them to great several 3D animations including dancing skeletons Halloween greetings.
I have a few ideas for the use of a 3D animation video and had thought of producing DVDs.
anyone have any Ideas or wishes???????

Yeah Poser is relatively simple.

There is anther program called DAZ that is also a good one to use.
Also Bryce for environments.
