Hey guys,

Here is a little video I put together over the weekend. It's something a little different and since I'm in football heaven at the moment, I thought I'd make a footie themed video. My job was obviously made easier with the release of the Stadium scenery by Aerosoft.

If don't like Football (Soccer to you americans) then you should probably avoid this video.

World Cup FS 37MB

Here are a few video stills









Enjoy

FAN FOCKEN TASTIC MATE!!!              

What day I've had. Aussies beat Japan in a cracker, watched USA/Czech at the gym, and now Ghana and Italy going end to end.

Then I get home and see this video..... I saw those free stadiums go up last week and thought about doing this exact thing. Glad you did it first cause a) you did it much better and b ) now I don't have to!  

Remarkable video mate. Belongs on the BBC end credits sequence. I swear they could not do any better. It doesn't get any better than..
GOALS, PLANES and NEKKID women celebrating jumping up and down!

Now I am an American and not a big football (soccer to us) fan but I am a fan of your videos and this one is great. I love that scenery of the stadiums I downloaded it but have yet to install it so thanks for the preview. It's great that we can share our passions using this medium wether they be airplanes or sport.

Regards, Carlos

Thanks for all your replies guys and sorry I didn't comment sooner. I was watching my boys Italy vs Ghana with friends and family and tipping back the beers

It's been a great day today, first the Socceroos stage an amazing comeback, and then Italy win with a half decent display

No, I don't follow soccer...looks entertaining, BUT I'm too old to learn the rules to a whole new sport, AND that doesn't mean I don't know an outstanding video when I see one!

Loved it!

Very very nice video Adrian, and beauitifull editing.    
The only thing I think there have to be more airports/aircaft and nice women in the video and less football! But not to less. It's just a little bit to much... but the video is still a 10 worth

It wasn't your best, but it was pretty good nontheless.

As an FS video, I'd give it 3.5/5, as I personally thought it had a tad too much real life stock footage. But that's just my subjective opinion.




However, you did mess up bigtime on the video format. You used a resolution of 720x576, but you psuedo-letterboxed the top and bottom area.

Instead of doing this you should have just encoded your video in 720x440. This would make your video compatible with widescreen monitors.

So my score is 2.5/5 when I factor in the letterboxing. Yeah, it's quickly becoming my pet peeve around here.

Thanks for share Adrian....

That's was a master piece video, excelente in all details and as others already comment the combination of FS and football is amazing. I wonder where did you get all those stadiums ??

Thanks for all your comments guys...

I agree it could have done with more FS footage, but unfortunatly I only had a small window of time to complete this video as I have other commercial projects to work on.

The reason for the frame size what to hide on screen graphics that was displayed on the football footage, ie, scores, clock times, etc. Besides I like to give the video a widescreen look, even if it isnt true widescreen.

However, thanks for the crit, I have noted it for the future

[aderstrodue]

Oh my...it is huge...! Still downloading..the screenshots look tempting!

Must be another wonderful piece of work by Arkitekt!
