The History of Flightsim Movie-making

[DoolittleRaider]

A "news" article posted at the FlightSim Movies website entitled "It's All About the Story" discusses the history of flightsim movie-making, predominantly IL-2 Series movies beginning in 2001 and continuing through 2012 with "IL-2 Cliffs of Dover", "Rise of Flight", and most recently with the Beta flightsim "War Thunder". Although the article is fairly long, I recommend it to anyone involved in making ClOD videos or movies.

Thanks! - It wasd a hgood long read, though I cannot say I am in total agreement with the somewhat exclusive definition of "proper movies". I don't think they all need to have a mainstream-movie-like script or certain limitations on the camera work. I think "gonzo" movie making has its place as well (like my own...)...
