Desaturated with compressed range could be also very interesting.

I love the look of the 50s films or late war gun camera color footage.

Which software do you use for video editing?

I've been using Adobe Premiere Pro.

I like the way those old colour films look too.

I think with enough determination and attention to detail you could probably apply any sort of film-look to Cliffs Of Dover. There probably are limits though to how good the end result would be. For example, the game lacks a certain level of detail in a lot of places, which when filtered could make it appear more cartoonish than it would if the filter were applied to a picture of a more highly detailed real-life scene.

I had a look at some colour gun-cam footage on Youtube too just before and the image quality was all over the place, even changing within a single shot. I think in some cases no video game would hold up if presented through filters accurately replicating what those films look like.

I also downloaded and had a quick look at that 'msu_old cinema' plug-in for VirtualDub that you linked to. It's been ages since I've used VirtualDub, but I managed to export a couple of shots out of it using some of the 'msu_old cinema' effects. I didn't explore it very thoroughly, but it looks like it might come in handy some time. Generally speaking though I'm not into the scratchy/damaged film look at the moment and I've never found those effects to be very convincing or realistic.

While I was playing around with it all though, I put the shots I exported out of VirtuaDub through Premier Pro and tweaked all but one of the colour shots even further, leaving the black and white shot as it was.

Is nothing serious, but I like the way the black and white shot turned out. Even thought I was getting dangerously close to a 'Wings Of Prey' look there with that first colour shot too. How well would a video done in that style go down here?

I'm always amazed by the videos some people are posting. They are really quality stuff!

Am I the only one that think the videos are quite superior than the simulation itself?

I mean, seeing these great immersion videos is one thing, running and enjoying the software is a completely different (far worst) experience.

Regards.
