Looks interesting! I will be following this.

And I agree with what others are saying about filming into the light. I would also suggest to invest in a tri-pod for the camera. A human hand is always going to be shaky. It can be used for certain effects, such as when your subjects are moving, but you will almost always want a motionless subject to be filmed by a motionless camera. :D

Hey everyone, here's episode 2:

The Game Plan
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwb3NjboQj4

This shows our perspectives and standpoints on things, and it also includes a sneak peek of some models we have made for the game.
We tried to squeeze this one in right before our school starts (which is tomorrow), so the next vid might not come anytime soon.
Enjoy!

Oh yes, and there's better lighting and a tripod. :D

Big, Big, Big Improvement.
Next video give a shoutout to Towcar and his game Created :P

Some comments I felt like saying in this post:
You should make a mock game trailer, thats always fun when your not in the mood to develop lol
Maybe you should replace your friend for a tri-pod, the tri-pod was much better lol
Next video, give the game details, mmo? FPS? Arena fight game? Time Period? Main Character? More sandwhichs?

If any adult over 60 watches this video there all going to say, get a haircut.

Cool idea, Edit: Get a cool opening with your own theme song
