Hello guys,

I have a question and I hope you can help me out.

I'm currently making a tutorial about how to do skill moves in fifa 13. Basicly I want to show people what buttons to press and which sticks to move on their xbox/ps3 controller to do the skillmove.


I have an example but I can't post links in this thread unfortunately.

What would be the best way of approaching this?



Thanks alot!

The only ways I can think of is just using a camera to record the controller, or do an animation of the controller and show the controls that way.
 
I recommend that you get a camera and show the moves on the controller. Then you can have like a little box where it shows the actual move being preformed as you're doing it.
 
Hmm yeah I thought about a camera, but it has one problem. Your hands would block some stuff and it's not easy to see for the viewers.

I've seen other youtubers do it without a camera and it looks really smooth.

Still wondering how it can be done..

Yeah that looks pretty hard to do aswell, couldnt you just achieve the same thing by putting text and arrows?

Use a camera to shoot birds eye view of the controller.
Record gameplay at the same time.

Sync the two and insert the camera footage as a PIP effect into the gameplay footage.

Voila!

I do this with some of my app reviews - check the one in my sig, for example, where I want to show my fingers on the phone screen as well as show gameplay.
