The look of a killer

The frags were good, but those particles and slomo on EVERY clip kinda made it meh for me
who?
edit: I didn't even see a single triple......

I was so salty about that gullywash airshot, fuck your 5 ping CJ
I actually don't know what happened with the particles at all @_@ I think I might have checked the particle box on accident when I meant to only do it for certain clips where the explosion wasn't apparent but it left it on for all of the recordings. YOU WIN SOME YOU LOSE SOME :(
edit: Apparently there's a bug with Lawena and Windows 8 Users where Lawena won't actually replace your current config with the max quality (for map textures) one if you don't manually do -dxlevel 98 beforehand. Kind of stupid that I learned this afterward and now I'm sad but oh well, just for anyone out there using windows 8 and running dx8. 8 is not the perfect number for frag movies I guess.

I can't tell what I enjoyed more, the frags, the editing or the music. Good stuff all around.
For whatever reason, I really enjoyed the outro editing. Good job with that. What font do you use for your text? Looks great. Awesome video in general.

For the blue text at the end where it says "Aeronautic", I used the android font (google dafont and android). For the text under that, I used novacento. Thanks :)

As others have said, a bit too much slow motion and (personally) I prefer the vanilla look of TF2 (particles and, for the most part, color correction). The smooth at 3:47 had the right idea though I think it could have used a better (or just wider) angle. This is probably just me but I also don't really like the blur on the corners because I like seeing who's getting killed easily :D
Otherwise though, I've always loved your editing style over many other TF2 videos I've seen, so I hope you don't mind the criticism. Keep up the good work :]

The slow motion was really obnoxious. Looks nice though.
I feel like the slow motion could have been less obnoxious if it weren't so abrupt, because most of the time the effect looked good, but it was awkward transitioning back to real time. Possibly curve it a lot more? I also wasn't a fan of the slight blur vignette. Made seeing the scoreboard hard. This is really nitpicky, but I thought the letter boxing was too large.
Other than that everything else was really good. Pacing, frags, smooths, all fit well together. Good syncing, and use of third person shots, ect. Intro was nice too, built up the energy very quickly.

Thanks for the critique guys! I'll keep everything in mind-- and yeah I think I did make the letterboxing a little thick. The blur vignette I've always played around with but I think i bumped it up a little bit too much this time around.
As for the particles, I literally had no idea I had those checked off from the last time and I'm kind of bummed I ran into so many Lawena issues this time around-- but now I know for next time ;)
Thanks!
Edit: I love slowmo but even I think I overdid it a bit this time :P
