FALLOUT 4 - Ultimate Homage Trailer
Read the description for more info on how I get these shots :
One of the best thing about
Bethesda games, is the ability to modify and play through the robust console commands. Now that
Fallout 4 graphic is better than ever, this kind of video was made possible.
I've been doing fan made videos for a long time, four years to be exact and my first trailer is for
Fallout New Vegas. This time I had the most control over the shot that I wanted, you've seen it yourself.
Outside of YouTube, I am a
Video Editor, Cinematographer,
Graphic Designer and
Graphics Animator. This channel is where I usually experiments with ideas and different techniques, and as you can see, video games provides the most opportunity for experimentation, there is practically nothing you cannot do, if you can do it in real life.
This video was aimed towards visual aesthetics, rather than audio clarity. The video that focused on audio design was already made previously. Most of the shots here are pretty much an homage to famous directors and cinematographers for their styles in visual film making. For example;
02:08 -
Martin Scorsese, well known for his uncanny and surreal images in his films.
Example -
Shutter Island.
02:11 -
Michael Bay -
Sometimes known as Bayhem. His signature style is a dramatic camera that spins around a subject (or character) which shot with telephoto lens (or low with
Field of View) that creates a great parallax effect against the foreground.
The channel "Every
Frame a
Painting" made a great video about this.

01:13 - Commonly known as the '
Hero Shot", as you can see it drastically improve a significance of a character and visually communicates that this is one of the main characters.
Were you able to find other signature shots in the trailer?
Let me know in the comments.
Good job in advance. :)

The console commands used in the trailer ;
sgtm (value from 0.1 to infinite) -
Effects the
Global Timescale of the game (which means everything goes reallllly fast or realllly slow, including you. Value 0.1 is the slowest, and it can be very glitchy beyond the value of
100)
set timescale to (value 1 to infinite) - Modifies the speed of clock in-game, subsequently alters the time of day.
Great for time-lapse shots like at 0:03
tfc (Toggle
Free Camera) - You need explaining on this, seriously? It removes the camera from you character and
.. moves freely. You wont be able to control your character movements at this
point.
sucsm ( value from 1 to infinite) - Controls the speed of the free camera. The lower value gives better controls.
coc qasmoke - A cell/room which contains pretty much everything in the game. Great if you wish to outfit your characters quickly with rare items. you can exit the room using console command - coc sanctuaryEXT
