About the Source Filmmaker

The Source Filmmaker (SFM for short) is a tool that uses Valve's Source engine to create a high quality, modifiable 3D recording that can be either exported as a movie or as a still image.

With The Source Filmmaker, you can essentially film "on location" in your favourite Team Fortress 2 map - Whether it's one that Valve have released or one that you modded yourself. The SFM has a huge library of maps, models, animations, objects, sounds and effects for you to use during production.

Because you're working with a virtual world, and your recording stores all the 3D motion data about every element, you can modify any aspect of the recording at any time, making it very handy to touch up on any last minute changes that would otherwise break the movie.

You can currently get the Source Filmmaker Beta for free on Steam, here. - Or, you can visit The Offical Source Filmmaker Website.


Source Filmmaker Beta

Before The Source Filmmaker officially went public, they had a short beta stage, where only a lucky few were chosen to test and try out The Source Filmmaker. Some of the people who tested the beta released YouTube videos, including: "Meet The Family", "Meet The Modern Heavy", "Heavy looses an IQ" and "Stop Meeting The Heavy".
