This is getting absurd: A videographer creates three short films in Arc Raiders with real players

A creative twist in gaming as players collaborate to produce cinematic short films within Arc Raiders.

Recently, it was noted how players of Arc Raiders exhibited creativity by trading weapons for binoculars, resulting in lore-friendly news report-style footage and striking nature documentary elements. This is a fascinating development only weeks after the game’s release, where players must navigate the dangers posed by terrifying robots and other gamers seeking their resources.

In a remarkable showcase of innovation, a director of gametography took things a notch higher by producing three short films titled Final Call, Last Chance, and Ready to Run, with the help of random players in the game.

This director, who has a professional background in videography, demonstrates impressive techniques such as recording from multiple angles and utilizing equipment like smoke bombs for dramatic effects.

The films not only capture the extraordinary animations and gameplay inherent in Arc Raiders, but they also reveal the community’s willingness to participate. Many players enthusiastically embraced acting roles, showing the unique kindness that stands out in a traditionally ruthless gaming genre.

For a closer look, you can watch these films and join the conversation about this unique collaboration within the Arc Raiders community.
