Do the original raw footage of the second video also stops and changes to a different scene when the camera is following the "spheres" towards the ground? Or does it show something more?

Considering that many people flag the threads just to make them easier to find, I don't think that would be a great measure of the quality or importance of any data presented on ATS. I know that I don't give them the slightest importance, neither to stars, that most people give away when they like the subject or the poster instead of when they like the content (that was the original idea).
If you insist this case is false then it's you against those 514 ATS members who flagged and applauded this case plus many other thousands who applauded the footages in luckymauro's YouTube channel, do you really think you have a chance?
As I see you are still insisting in your absurd speculation about this incident never happened despite the evidences presented BUT and this is important for everybody to notice, you now changed your strategy in a usless effort to survive in your act that ended when the second witness came forward with evidence.

Excellent post Necati!
I agree we need extraordinary evidence for extraordinary claims, but as you also point out we don't even have basic evidence in this case like uncompressed versions of the videos.
Without such evidence I don't see how we are going to be able to prove whether it's CG, an elaborate kite, or alien orbs with confused pilots darting around in apparently random directions.

As I said before in case you didn't notice, those cuts/edits were done by the tv production, keep that in mind.

Then I shall remind you your own words.

Some astonishing footage. Hope this will not turn out to be some sophisticated particle
rendering engine of one of those major 3d_appz like 3dsMax or Maya. If not it's really
mind boggling!
Reference Page 1.
Mind boggling you said? It certainly is. Now to the subject. You are declaring here that
both UFO witnesses Pedro Hernandez and Alfred Carrillo are hoaxers? Fine but now
prove it!! Prove it here with hard evidence they are hoaxers because if you don't it
will be clear it's you the one making a hoax by inventing false claims and a false
scenario. Prove this incident never happened or confess you are creating a hoax.
Because now I'm the one accusing you of false claims, prove I'm wrong.

Free spirit,
ArMaP asked:
OK so the cuts were made by the TV station. The question was if the original footage
shows more. Should I infer from your answer that the original footage made by
Alfred Carillo does show more and some of what he taped was cut out by the TV
people?
I have only seen that for the first video (and I explained it to several people in this thread), that's why I asked it.

Please, stop twisting what I write to try to give it a meaning that is not there.
Regarding what you say about the 514 ATS members who flagged this case you are wrong again. Everything in the UFO Phenomena is about statistics, consensus, don't try to define what those 514 ATS members said or did here in this thread, don't try to minimize, ignore, discard or make fun of those ATS members because that may place you as an arrogant person claiming to know everything about other people's beliefs and behaviors by defining their opinions, that would be a serious mistake, think about this.
Sure, every member has that right, but now you are the one saying why people do it, and you cannot be sure of that.
Every ATS member has the right to flag, put a star and applaud what he considers it's a relevant and convincing case, that's what the flag function is for, don't try to dismiss the legitimate voice of each member who wants to flag a thread, a case, a video just because you are not convinced.
That's why I said that you should not try to change the meaning of what I wrote, I didn't said anything about the posts, only the flag and star system. I never dismiss anyone's opinions, even the most outlandish possible, they are their own opinions and a readable representation of that person's thinking.
Those flags are historical statistics that live and most important you forgot to mention also the comments of those 514 members that flagged this case, Are you going to dismiss also their opinions?
What do you mean by "hierarchy of this case"?
You see what I mean, this fact is undeniable consensus that prove the hierarchy of this case, like it or not.
I don't know what is the truth, if I did I would be explaining it to other people, instead of trying to understand what is happening. I don't think that anyone knows the whole truth about it either.
Now, you said this: “And truth is not a popularity contest”. May I ask you what is the truth regarding the UFO Phenomena?
I don't know, see above.
What is according to you the undeniable, irrefutable, undisputed and absolute truth?
Probably nobody, see above.
And who has the truth in his hands? The UFO witnesses, the abductees, the contactees or on the other hand the skeptics, the debunkers, the cover-up agents? Hard to tell or should I say almost impossible right?
From what you wrote it looks like I said that I knew who knows the truth, and that's not the case.
Who is the owner of the universal knlowledge to decide what is the truth and what is not regarding the UFO Phenomena. Because that would mean the puzzle is solved and it is certainly not after 60 years of continuous debates.
It's popular on ATS? Sure, that's true, but we already now that, why keep on counting the flags as if the more flags this thread gets the closer to the truth we get? Flags, stars, applauses, pats on the back, Oscars, Nobel prizes, neither of those are useful to get closer to the truth, they are all a way of measuring something, and as nobody can know the truth nobody can give a prize for truthfulness.
Therefore the truth is still ambiguous regarding the UFO Phenomena but UFOs are certainly a popular subject for the people or should I say an extremely popular subject and the proof of that is that you and me as well as many others are here talking about this almost every day as well as thousands on other websites and forums. That is certainly a truth that shall be considered a fact. Not a contest but a consensus.
No, this is about something that apparently happened, and that has been part of the discussion also. If it really happened then we need to know exactly (or at least with some certainty) what it was, only then can we know if it was extraordinary or not.
This is about an extraordinary event that took place and we have been discussing for many days about this and the images and the testimonials and the facts and the evidences presented, not an illusion. Those flags, stars and comments are real and we are still talking about this.

All the parameters for animating the spheres (particles) like gravity, air resistance, turbulence field, birth rate, lifespan etc can be found within the above mentioned program. The odds that this is a mere coincidence are astronomical.

In fact, if I was going to fake something like this, I would not use a particle system to do it. It'd be like hammering nails with a sponge.
There are much easier ways to fake something like this than any after effects plug-in. So I very much doubt it.
In your other thread you talked about particle systems having specific modes for various effects (such as fire, etc) - again, this is incorrect. Although there may well exist 'cheap' systems that have such things, any decent particle system does not need them, they are much more flexible. Again, this proves nothing.
In fact I would suspect, if it had been faked, that the second video would look a lot more like the first one.

Is the original film going to be given to an independent agency for study?
If you really want this apparent ground-breaking footage to make waves, that would be your best bet. Is there a reason it is not being studied by professionals? Or is it a $$$ thing?
...If this footage remains a UFO video that will be splendid don't you agree?
What I see in this footage after some hours of study is a rare phenomena in the sky that I have not seen before in my research. I don't know what it is, what it means therefore it's an unidentified phenomena aka unknown objects. This video may very well be considered soon as a classic in Ufology, a new evidence of an unexplained phenomena in the sky. That will be splendid.
Unfortunately I still haven’t received a reply from Josué Hernandez, therefore I can’t finally approve if he used a particle plug-in or not until he confirms it. However I’m 99.99% sure he did. I also wrote a U2U to Alejandro in order to ask him if he could contact him in Spanish. Still waiting for an answer!
