The Shortcut Movie 2 - by ndR

By ViDtam·
Hello XJ community!

Today we bring you another exciting Movie Release. It's not a new movie, but it surely deserves to be in the spotlight again. The editor of this movie is our dear beloved and probably the most known moviemaker in this community - ndR!!!

A bit of back story:

Originally this project called "The Shortcuts Movie" was created by 8ball1 in 2007. It was an eight and a half minutes movie containing shortcuts that jumpers of those times discovered. You may see a lot of familiar names in the first part such as zhady, brian, faker, ndR... and so on. 4 years later in 2011 ndR decided to make another part which we are representing today.

The main idea of this movie is to show the newest discovered shortcuts in the official maps. The edit is clean, smooth, without campaths so all the attention is directed towards the shortcuts. There's not much to say about ndR, as he gets the attention of every viewer's eye and turns it into a wonderful experience. So without any more delay, grab some popcorn and enjoy the show.

Ohhhh yes finally a good edit i love your work man !!

ndR is an artist

Epic stuff mate, but it was sometimes abit too bright, esp on clear backgrounds. But nicely done :)

27/05/2014 11:52:00

Just a note, 2:10 is done by Spr1n, not koukouz Great movie overall

27/05/2014 12:52:00

Yup I unfortunately noticed this mistake after the render was done and that I had deleted all the project files :-)

Just for your information: this movie was made in [b]2011[/b], but was never featured frontpage nor even posted in the forum. I hope you enjoy it nevertheless, I might make the 3rd edition if there are enough new shortcuts to make a movie out of them.

why is that? doubt it was did on purpose.

27/05/2014 13:12:00

great movie man! sc's = best part of kz. some of those sc's truly put a smile on my face

27/05/2014 14:54:00

cool to bring it up again :) used to watch this almost every day, its just perfect

27/05/2014 15:12:00

its cool to watch this again since its a pretty nice movie but kinda sad at the same time. is the mmaking scene that "dead" that you gotta (re)post old movies?

27/05/2014 15:16:00

Thought the same :s

27/05/2014 15:21:00

Well, I agree with you, even if at least it's not a real repost of a movie that was featured frontpage before :-)

27/05/2014 15:50:00

I can see your point but as ndR said, it never featured the fornt page before. I see nothing wrong about reminding some older movies if they are still dope. ( my opinion tho ) People either wanna make KZ movies or they dont. We cant force anyone to make movies, quality movies. Also basically idk anyone who records TJs anymore.. Maybe there are a few ppl but still, its not as active as it used to be and all we can do is to adapt to it. Would be naive to think that one day, its will be the same as it used to be. We really want this community to be a better place and we're trying day by day but the help to keep this site attractive must be mutual between admins and users. Come with suggestins, give us something for return to keep us motivated [ And im not talking about movies only ]. Almost every single XJ user can record 2-3 tjs. Why dont you do it ? Difficulty doesnt matter as long as the MM is creative.. Tbh idc about the difficulty of the TJs but about aesthetic.

27/05/2014 16:19:00

i totally get your point and am also pleased to see a nice movie on frontpage, whether its a repost or not . it was more like a question about the current state of mmaking scene rather than a complaint as i dont really keep myself up to date with whats going on in the forums and whatnot. as for suggestions, i dont know.. maybe some tj/movie contest could help raise the activity.

27/05/2014 15:14:00

sometimes i wonder do the creators of cs mode know about this and how would they react if they saw it. incredible! and there are some new sc's on official maps so i hope we see 3rd movie

27/05/2014 16:29:00

stunning work ndr, love it!

27/05/2014 16:58:00

didnt like the content of the movie... i mean, yeah those scs are pretty hard most of them (others are really stupid), but those demos are very old almost all... i remember 1 year ago i suggested to make a movie about "NEW" shortcuts that are not done yet in current wrs.. there are some demos arround XJ of SCS that arent in the current wrs so i think it would have been a better idea to make something like this instead of what u did ndr.. anyway the edition was cool, so the music too. 7

I'm a bit confused if it was not released on forums then how come I have it like from .... http://oi59.tinypic.com/vg1st4.jpg

27/05/2014 23:34:00

I think I shared the download link to people on Steam friends and put it in the Youtube description, before the link died :-) I don't even have the file anymore btw, would you mind sharing it? :D

28/05/2014 20:29:00

Yohan I think I downloaded it from youtube because the clarity isn't that good. I don't have the original file :( Please ask any other friends of yours whom you might have given.

27/05/2014 23:35:00

ndr!
