  • impactist 2 years ago
    Indeed, it is "Smash" Williams. Good eye. Bonus points if you can pick out Luis from Sesame Street.
  • Charlie Trotter 2 years ago
    Luis is at 12 seconds! BOOM! Where do I pick up my points?
  • impactist 2 years ago
    Points are on their way...

    Great; like all the other work you've done, really.
    So exciting and inspirating, I'm really impressed.

    Lovely. What cam did you use for this project?
  • impactist 2 years ago
    A digital slr was used for this piece.

  • Marcus Wallinder 2 years ago
    And a type of burst mode for certain "sequences"? Really amazing.
  • impactist 2 years ago
    Everything was shot the same way with a continuous shutter. Every scene, every location photographed the same. The 'certain sequences' you are referring to were created using custom software, techniques, and lots of frame by frame reconstruction by hand in post.

  • Marcus Wallinder 2 years ago
    Very impressive. Thank you for the insight.

    great editing and effects. great!

  • Do you just tell the actors to move as they normally would, but at a slower rate? or.....hmmm...not sure I fully understand this process. I've done stop motion before but it's taken absolutely forever to move from one side of the room to the other. Like from 26 seconds to 30 looks so natural in movement its ridiculous.
  • impactist 2 years ago
    Our reply to Marcus' question probably clarifies things a little bit for you. This was not stop motion, but instead a technique we tested extensively ourselves. The production and post work shouldn't be considered separate since they were both created knowing how they'd fit together in the end.

    you made a really nice work..really;regards!
  •  
  • Jip Eilbracht 2 years ago
    I really love it, how you create a video-like sequence with only digital pictures. The morphing gives a great, neverseen before effect. Keep it up!
  • impactist 2 years ago
    We tried to develop something a little bit different for this project. Happy to hear it resonated with you.

  • Alexander Bukhonov 2 years ago
    It is just a masterpiece. You do beatuful stuff:) Thanks.
  • impactist 2 years ago
    you're too kind...

    smile
  • Alexander Bukhonov 2 years ago
    Well, may be I'm just impressed a bit too much. But still, and I'm talking not only of this video, you're really talented, creative *and* obviously you're able to work hard (I mean, making such videos takes way more than couple of hours, especially for only two people). So, you either are a great team, or will be:) Just keep going!
  • impactist 2 years ago
    Yes, definitely more than 'just a couple hours', smile! But, this is what we do so we don't mind.

    Stay well.

    Didn't hurt a bit.

    Smile.

    the best video I've seen so far,
    awesome work

  • Daniel Hayek staff 2 years ago
    Wow, can you describe in more detail the camera that you used? Nice work :)
  • impactist 2 years ago
    We used a normal, readily available digital SLR camera.

    smile!
  • Daniel Hayek staff 2 years ago
    Really!? Wow, how many fps did you shoot at?
  • impactist 2 years ago
    Around five or six maybe?
  • Daniel Hayek staff 2 years ago
    That takes a fancy SLR, I think, right?
  • impactist 2 years ago
    Just like we said initially when you asked... "a readily available digital SLR"... But, remember it's really not all about the tools.

    Don't miss the forest for the trees.
  • Daniel Hayek staff 2 years ago
    There's a lot about video editing that i don't understand and this video is way out of my skillset. It's just so cool looking, I'd love to learn how to do this.

  • Martijn Doornenbal 2 years ago

    I like the locations and the colors! The library is beautiful...
