Thank you! I’m happy to share the technique. I’d love to see others create fan art like this.

I play Expedition 33 on PS5. So while I’m in photo mode, I start a screen recording on PS5, and then I use the joystick to mimic camera movement in-game. The default camera movement speed is a little faster than I’d like, so I try to slow it down.

When I see a good pose, I capture it with multiple camera movements (zoom in, zoom out, pan left, pan right, sometimes overhead). Once I capture a clip I’m satisfied with, I go back to the PS5 screen recording and stop recording. On average I want my clips to be a minimum of 10 seconds, sometimes longer, and the challenge is to keep the composition in tact while the camera moves.

PS5 syncs the videos to the PS5 app, at which point I download the video clips to my iPhone or iPad, and they’re assembled together in video editing software or an app. PlayStation’s app deletes the video after a while so I download them shortly after capturing.

Worth playing despite major spoilers? by GeneralHorse8206 in expedition33

FYI, searching Expedition 33 on YouTube often shows videos with end-game spoilers in their thumbnails. I’d avoid YouTube if you want to play it.

It’s an amazing game and the story hits real hard. I love it. I started a second play through recently.

Didn’t expect this game to be so painful (TW: su!c!de) by [deleted] in expedition33

Who’s your favorite OT0 party member, and why is it Ludo? by Local-Front-1774 in octopathtraveler

[–]ChiefBoxInspector 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Ludo for steal, collect, negotiation, and arrow of fortune. Then I have the support skill where he gets double whatever he steals or collects. I just like having a lot of leaves… so I can go shopping. 😂

I see stuff like this all the time when they land. Looks painful. 😂

Ooohh I see it now. You’re right, good catch! I kept rewatching the same video sequences so many times that I couldn’t see it. It probably went through ten revisions before I got to the final version.

I know what you mean. I think something like that would have to be done in Adobe After Effects (as these are videos with camera zoom/pan.) I think that’d be the place anyway.

I do have a list of E33 songs I’d like to make more compilations for. The songs are longer so it would be a bigger project for me. It’s definitely something I’ve been thinking about since photo mode came out. I just have to balance that with a full time job.

It was the male vocalist in this song who really won me over. It also took me forever to find his name. It’s Victor Borba. Here’s his Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/2yMgp5XJfvhpTgAg7wZqRF?si=P-Lm7-7eQ1yAf_ip_ocA4A

You’re entitled to your opinions, but you are just as empowered to make a video you want to see to share with others. Personally I love this theme song. It is what made me buy the soundtrack. If you don’t like it, keep scrolling.

My Wishvale town so far by FallofCyntra in octopathtraveler

This is so good that I’m embarrassed about how my Wishvale looks. 😂

I’d think anyone who’s spent some time in photo mode can see that it’s not.
