FLASH MOVIE

[Zeigue]

Hey everybody. I'm starting my game completely over, only this time, I'm using RMXP. I've just recently found out we're allowed to talk about RMXP and ask for resources nd such. But any-who, my problem is I want to make an opening movie for my game Distant Light, but I do not have the skills required to do so. I'm looking for somebody who could make an opening movie for my game. Of course, absolute full credit to anybody who helps.

I'm lwant it to be:

(For anybody whos ever played Kingdom Hearts, you know what I'm tlaking about) I need this [MAIN] character (Attatched) falling through the sky crashing into an open sea (WITHOUT SWORD), than slowly sinking downward. (I'm not trying to be a copy-cat, but I loved the idea). Then a clip of the same [MAIN] character killing this [MONSTER] (Attatched) with a sword (prefferably slashing through the [MONSTER]). Then go back to him sinking. Than another scene of the same type of [MONSTER] running towards him, but the [MAIN] character jumps behind it's back and plunges sword through it's back than jumps off of the MONSTER's back as it falls to the ground bleeding, while he's in the air. After that, show this [OTHER] character (Attatched) standing on a beach, ankle deep in water, looking at the [MAIN] character, grinning, and suddenly a giant wave knocks the [MAIN] character on the shore, as the [OTHER] character vanishes as if the wave did nothing to him, cut back to the [MAIN] character sinking, he opens his eyes slowly, and from first person perspective, he's looking directly at the sky, it's sunny and bright and there would be a lens flare, than fade the screen to black.

I'm sorry if this is too much to ask for, but im desperately in need of this. Thank you to everybody who helps out, as I said, full credit will be given no doubt about that. I appriciate it. The last person that said would do this, got a new computer so they lost all previous data of the movie, including Macromedia. Thanks!

Just so you know, Fayt annoyed the hell outta me. Make Maria or Nell your main character :p

[oooog]

1.)  Yes, this is too much to ask. Especially with the resources provided which provide little potential for this rather seemingly big movie.
2.)  Are you sure you want to use a character from another game in your game?
3.)  Even if you do plan to do the above, shouldn't the other characters also meet the same level of quality and such.
4.)  Not trying to criticize.

I would recommend an adjustment.  Really consider this.  If you must have your movie this way, it is HIGHLY recommended you provide some greater detail and blueprints to the movie.  At the current stage, this task seems too difficult to do.  What I would recommend doing is:
1.)  Have a change of MAIN characters, unless you're dead set on this.
2.)  Lower your expectations and provide some easier to manage resources that are easier to make into the various poses you want.
3.)  Attempt it yourself first, you may be surprised with the results and find out you're actually pretty good at it.

Just my two cents.

I will change my [MAIN] Character, but the reason I am asking is because I've ALREADY attempted it myself. I suck at animations of any kind. The last person I asked [Archem2] did a good job, drew very well in macromedia but got a new computer adn lost everything, thats the only reason im asking again. And i dont know how to make "blueprints" or anytype of layout for a movie thats the best detailed description of it I can give you.


Here's a idea of what I'm looking for Basically jsut like this only with fight scenes:

Well, it's good to hear you actually tried.

What I meant by "blueprints" was sprite sheets, I guess.  Different poses for the characters so the person doing it could make it a little easier.

[coreystranick]

I just want to get this straight, you want the whole KH intro, but instead of Sora and RIku and everything, you want your people.
First time I have ever heard of that, good job. I wish i could do it, but I as well do not have any animation skills what so ever

[Zeigue]

Haha basically in simpler terms, yes. And with my battle scenes and such. As for " blueprints " ,all I have is the Battler for the [MAIN] Character because im making my own char set for him currently because I can't currently find one.  I have sprite sheets for the [OTHER] character and the [MONSTER]...

EDIT: By the way, the purple 'stripes' aroudn the purple [MONSTER], that's lightning, it's a lightning elemental monster.

Just finished my [MAIN] Character Sprite

Dude... no... just stop.

A: The kinghearts intro was a music vidoe. He was falling through water because they couldn't make an original way for him to get the keyblade..

B: You clearly are a newbie at game making. And, you said you don't have much of a game anyways, so this would be a waste of time.

C: This is a huge request, and no more then what you've done around here, it's impractical.

D: Kuddos for actually trying yourself. Most people are n00bz and don't.

[Zeigue]

Haha. You just hit the nail on the head I guess. I really do blow at game making, the only thing I've actually gotten good at was map making. well Yeah I guess your right ill just quit while im ahead. But, does anybody know any tutorials that could help me learn how to make flash animations in Macromedia? thanks for all of your help and concerns everybody.

Flash? Your kidding, right? I do NOT use flash for my intros/cutscenes. I use either Video Vegas 6 or rm2k. Mostly rm2k picture coding.

[Zeigue]

what is RM2K Pciture Coding? never heard of Video Vegas either.. I was thinking of making a flash movie )intro/cutscenes) in flash than find some way to  convert them to .AVI format so its capable of playing with RMXP. After I use flash I was going to put it in Windows Movie Maker..

[Me5kuTis]

Well Vegas Video 6 is like Wondows Movie Maker times 300. Loads more capabilities. And picture coding is just like:
Show Picture 1 160x120
Move Picture 1 123x45

and etc.. I've made great intros in the past. I'm making one right now.

P.S. If you want to see some of my Vegas Video work here's a trailer of my upcoming game :
