Hi Guys

I Currently have a youtube, and wanting to do some more EVE videos, So I thought of a feature which the game could have which would make recording more popular and easier for new players to record their own movies and moments in combat. So here is my idea:

Theatre Mode:
Lets say your in a fleet in 0.0 just a 10 man gang and you come across another gang about the same size and it was an action packed and intense battle which you enjoyed and want to record and upload to youtube so the rest of the alliance or corp can see it. Well with theatre mode your having an option to record in game, when the battle is finished can look back at the fight and move the camera around to get your shot, This would improve the look of videos and make the camera easier to use. With this option you can enjoy pvp without having the mess of UI and look at the battlefield in a spectator view. Of course I don't disapprove the UI but for people who are looking for battles which can show both sides of the fight, also movies can be made Smile for us to enjoy.

I understand that this would take along time to create, it would most likely be in another program outside of EVE which you could download I.E EVE Online Video Theatre.

I don't know if this is possible, I know its not an improvement which would effect gameplay. But it would create a stronger community with better publishing tools to show off what is the EVE Universe.

Btw CCP make a movie already Smile, Love your trailers and would like to see the community being able to make 'trailer' material like your own.

Thanks For Your Time
