Making your own frag movie
Most competitive shooters can record a replay or demo of a match. Counter-Strike 2, Quake Live and Overwatch all have demo or replay systems that let you watch a round again from any angle, which is how frag movie makers capture clean, smooth footage. Record your clips, cut the best frags tight to the beat of the music, and keep the scoreboard or kill feed visible so viewers can follow what happened.
