A thread to purposedly post fake videos ?
This should be in the hoax section unless it's another poor attempt at discrediting this forum...

How is it discrediting the forum.The ufo scene is awash with fakes some good some very bad. I thought it would be interesting to have members post their favourite fake video or the video that had them really fooled for future reference and therefore may help in distinguishing future fakes.

Of course there are fakes, and there will always be fakes.

Anyone learning 3D will stumble upon a tutorial on how to make a UFO pic.
The purpose of computer graphics is mostly to make people believe its true, so any graphic artist will at one point or another try prove himself by fooling others into making them believe his stuff is real.

And science fiction has been a strong driving force in the development of CGI. Latest example beeing Avatar which stemmed a new generation of software to help artists.

So once again, this thread will acomplish nothing, except giving some examples for the clueless crowd shouting CGI at anything they see. If you wanna educate people, why not face a more difficult task as to determine what CGI can't do, that would be fun...

This forum is not for posting FAKE videos. Once fake videos are posted and revealed, they are moved to HOAX and/or closed.

So, this really serves no purpose of this forum.

Closed.
