I entered this contest machinima.com is holding, where you supply the video, and they supply the audio and graphics.

Check out my entry here:

Mine is titled, "Mr Poe's THe Bourne Ultimatum"

You can see the trailer its based on here:

I liked yours but, my hat goes off to the smash brothers one.

I take it you used the game "The Movies" plus the expansion pack to make this? I loved The Movies especially when your reached the part of the game that lets you have virtually complete control over making a movie.

I'd say Poe's trumps the others with the WoW version coming in second. The rest were rubbish, especially the one with the person using Halo 2 gameplay.

Cool! I could use your votes when the time comes!

Really nice work.

UPDATE:

Hey all, I made it in the top 10! To recap, Machinima.com is holding a contest to see who can make the best Bourne Ultimatum machinima trailer, using sound and graphics they provide. The Top 10 were just picked, for the vote for the Top 3 finalists. So... if you would, (and if you think my version of the trailer is deserving) vote for me! Follow the link below:

MR POE'S THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM

Thank you!

Personally...I like the half life 2 version...

Could you upload it on youtube by the way?

Gave yours a five, Poe. Looking at the others, the Bourne Again clip looks good as well as some others. You got stiff competition but I hope you make it.

Thanks! Secretly, I'm damned happy none of the Halo entries made it to the top 10.

Poe, is there a shaky cam function in 'the movies' ?

If there is any weakness about your clip, it would be...the shaky cam and the character's movements.

No shaky-cam.

Here's a look at the greenscreen work for my entry into the Bourne Ultimatum Machinima contest, MR POE'S THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM.

For the opening shot of the woman at the desk, I filmed her first with a greenscreen background behind her and the desk. I then took a screenshot of the office back wall, and added the two flagpoles:



I then chroma-keyed that screenshot with the woman at the desk, to mimic the scene from the film:





For the scene where Bourne is being discussed, I snatched a page from the "America's Most Wanted" website, and inserted Bourne's picture and name:



For the roof jump scenes, I had two greenscreen shots. There was this one:



...where the Bourne character was filmed jumping into a green void, then the building he was jumping to was keyed in later. For the other jump shot, I took a shot of one of the building windows, and hollowed it out with green:



I then filmed the interior of the hotel bedroom set, and keyed that in, and made that a seperate piece of film. I then filmed Bourne once again jumping in a green void (from the back), then placed it over the above piece of film.





For the final shot, I looked up some MPAA and Universal graphics, and put them together on a green background:



...so I could mimic the final shot of the trailer. I added the Decca Records text as well.
