Would be really cool to see some camera/editing tools within the game, there is alot of potential for machinma's with this game, creating serious fighting action, adventure series or comical series.
But this could be added as a mod i guess.

Recreating Watership Down would be interesting hah or something similar.

That would definitely be cool, but I don't think that this will be implemented until the final release... maybe as a mod or a further update since it's not as important as other awesome gameplay stuff... ;)

When you know how to work around from some issues then it is possible to do almost everything

I think a film feature will be added later in development after they get the core gameplay and UI done. But that's just logical speculation, I don't know for sure.

That's pretty awesome. The parts where you were mousing around him in the normal game camera view were the low points, but it didn't ruin the video as a whole in any way.
Maybe I should make a mod that allows for smoother mousing around the player. Wouldn't be too hard, with a good LERP.

EDIT: I also enjoyed your Survivalist video. Had a really great feel to it. Sort of Metro 2033/28 Days Later vibe, and I really loved it.

Thanks!
Yeah the normal game camera view parts i wasn't to happy with, I would of used just the editors camera view but all the editing features would show in the background. Yeah a smoother mouse movement would of helped alot haha.

I want to attempt a fighting scene next which'll be tricky i think.

The survivalist video was so rushed, we had low battery on the camera at the time :L might be doing more of them. Glad you liked :)

they will definately have to for purposes of cut scenes (well i would assume anyway) , but i would shed tears of joy if they made an idiot-proof module included in the sweet editor suite for camera controls and exporting/compressing video files etc.
