And so i dedicate my signature to them, a small sign of memory that will forever remain on my profile, for as long as it exists.
I am sad it's all i can do for them now and i hope i never did something to bring them anything but joy in their life.
World is a cruel place, but it was a better place with both of you in it. Miss you both.
I actually have quite a good idea for this contest. Since this is my first cinematic ever, I'll probably lose to veterans like Aeroblyctos and Septimus.
CMarket's cinematics are usually too long(I mean his series old series, never watched new ones) and that makes them boring. I think the cinematics should be dynamic(like my crazy super über effect spam cinematic, which won't leave anyone cold)!
I wonder how long the cinematic should be? I won't make any marathon cinematic because it will be once again related to the campaign. Is 5 min good? Or 10 min? What do you think guys?
Well just keep it under the allowed time span 5 - 20. CMarket concentrates more on the story, background and things like that, mixed with a bit of action, makes it perfect.
