I just managed to create a new trailer and a bunch of new screenshots for our shoot em up game - T.W.T.P.B.

The trailer is a bit longer than the old trailers. Hope you like it and feel free to spread the word

Some of you might have noticed that I have made a new TWTPB trailer. If not check it out below. I uploaded it to vimeo (among others) I have taken a liking to vimeo as they offer higher quality than most other video uploading services. Anyway I'd thought I'd take a moment and describe how I usually make videos and trailers like this.

Creating a Game Play Video

1. Record Game Play

I use Fraps to record various tidbits of game play. I typically record quite long sessions. I always record without music since it would be very strange to have different snippets of music playing all the time. There are probably ways of stripping the music/sound, but I often want the sound effects in there.

2. Edit

I really have very little knowledge about this and there are probably a bunch of softwares out there in various price ranges. I have found that Windows Movie Maker (that came preinstalled on my Vista HP laptop) works fine for me. I will let you add sound, transitions and texts. You don't have full control and there are probably limitations on what you can achieve.
