To promote our game I decided to edit two videos, one being a gameplay trailer and the other being a short video of our games intro scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Intro Cutscene Video<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To make this video, I took the separate panels of our intro scene and introduced them with an opacity fade:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Then with free sounds I found on Pixabay<\/a>, I layered these audio tracks onto different<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button>
Timeline for this video<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I also vary the volume of the audio for more emphasis when certain panel shows up. Like the sound of this large wave crashing at 0:11.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Result<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Gameplay Trailer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To start creating the gameplay trailer, I wanted to find royalty free music that would fit the vibe of the game. But it was taking me a while to find one I liked so I asked Paula:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But this song didn’t really suit the vibe I wanted, so I chose the second one Paula sent me:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
