Freddie Wong's Videos

I frequently go to Youtube to look up whatever cool videos I can find. One day I was looking at some action videos on Youtube when I came across Freddie Wong. Freddie makes his videos based off of various video games and movies. What really stands out in his videos is the great visual effects. His gun effects are really great but he has also done some really crazy CGI effects. For example, Freddie made a video called "Flower Warfare" which is pretty much a gun fight scene but instead of the guns shooting bullets, they shoot flowers! "Chrono Trigger" is one of my favorite videos he does because the fight scene is really well choreographed and the guns' visual and sound effects are great! In some of his videos he uses some unique camera angles by showing a first person view were the audience and the main character are seeing the same thing. This camera angle is frequently used in the video game genre of "first person shooters."He also has a funny sense of humor because he frequently references movies such as Home Alone, Cowboys and Aliens, Star Wars, and Inception. In fact, Freddie actually worked with the director of Cowboys and Aliens(he also directed Iron Man, Iron Man 2, and Elf), Jon Favreau, in one of his videos and he uses the actual wrist gun from the movie! Freddie's videos don't have any morals or messages in them, but they are really fun to watch because of his cool visual effects and funny sense of humor!

  1. I love Freddie's stuff. I'm interested in seeing his feature as I don't know if I have ever seen anything of his that had what you could call a full out story.
