Yes, and with a good excellent music. Music must never be underestimated. Best mood in mods (in fact, I look to WIH or Wings of Dawn especially) come for a great part from the music.

Air it during the Super Bowl!

You see now, that youtube video is pretty awesome. However, I want it more of a Reach type trailer, and more of an emphasis on improvements. In addition, I like the Idea of a short ad that reflects a different personality for the different mods/campaigns like BP, which is so far one of the few i've played (school likes to interrupt a lot), so if anyone wants a nice ad for their mod, get me a link to it (email me at [email protected] its not connected to me personally, so I'm not worried about distributing it) and I'll see what I can do. As I said before, ALL ideas are welcome, especially music tracks. I have a very limited library of music, but thanks to youtube, that's not really a limit. As for making the ad more punchier, thats my goal. After all, what's the fun in making an ad about an awesome action-packed game if you can't scare the wits out of your viewers. Here is my ideas and different plans for mods so far:

Ad 1: Show fs2 Open Source by itself, without comparing it to anything else, just to show it in its element
Ad 2: Show a generational comparison, from fs -> fs2 -> fs2 open, as more of a commercial element

Campaign ads:
Ad 3: Blueplanet: AoA - show some cutscenes in the actual campaign, followed by some cockpit and camera views(i'll need help with that one) and finally a nice booming ending to cap it off.
Ad 4: Blueplanet: War in Heaven 1 (&2 if it comes out soon) - Show some very short sequences from AoA, followed by the main plot (terran vs terran, UEF vs TVA)

These will probably be ranging from 1 minute to 3 minutes, depending on how good the gameplay i receive, make, and use is.

EMAIL ME WITH IDEAS PLEASE (see above for address) or post them up here if they are that good

Feel free to make/request(files for) usage of any of my footage, assuming the mod guys want it done.

You seriously want to make ads for various mods? Hats off man, that's some dedication.

In that case, check out Flames of War. It might catch your fancy.

[birdmanrulez]

Flames of war shows of promise for the type of movies I have in mind. I'll download it soon (i tried downloading at school, but the link was broken?)

[TrashMan]

There's 2 Flames of War campaigns (or chapters)..the link should work, but if not, you should find it on freespacemods.

And yes, that was one of the BEST parts of the campaign, on my first try i hit my afterburners while moving TOWARDS the juggernaut, you can guess where that led to...

My first reaction was to stare at it for a second (felt like an eternity) going "What the F%#& is THAT!", then I realised it was coming at me, so I dived as suggested but before I knew it I was splattered on its front windscreen...... no happy 
I'd love to help, I've got Adobe premier and have done a screen course, so could help anyway needed.

Thanks much, I have had no screening classes, everything I've done I've learned by myself. I do not have any experience with Adobe Premier, but I do have Pinnacle Ultimate Studio 14, which offers some pretty nice stuff, as compared to the vegas equivalent. I'm using that to do my editing, along with Hypercam 2, although I may switch to fraps, I hear it gives better quality.

[Rico]

Yep I have fraps, once you buy the full version its very good at recording ingame
