    Grow up you idiot. It is time wasting morons like you that are spoiling feedback forums such as this.

    Nobody cares if you can count nor do we care that you have to prove you can count up to one.

    great build, I definitely came up with some ideas of how I could use it. There's no commercial though, instead it's just black space...

    I should have watched this episode before I spent $10 on ZOMBIE masks at CVS. This build has a lot of possibilities. Looking forward to the test film!

    Also, for Zombie effects you can look at this episode: http://www.indymogul.com/episode/bfx_20070604. Also come back in two weeks for even more Zombie madness.

    Are you going to show the test film on tuesdays from now on? Also I like the mask, but I think the hands should not show the finger nails.

  • IndyMogulTeam wrote on October 13, 4:11 pm

    Yep, the Super Test Films will air on Tuesdays from now on. They're going to be better than ever, and if we were to put them on the internet the same day as the build, well, the internet would explode. Seriously.

    Eric i have a very important technological question? the new indy mogul intro how did you freeze frame the video into pictures and then have the paint splatter behind them and if you can tell me that please!!!! tell me you did it in Final cut studios 2

    reply to comment
  • animationbean wrote on October 13, 4:19 pm

    hey IndyMogulman,

    I cut out a still frame of the footage in photoshop, duplicated the layer and cut out the excess background. giving me 2 layers to sandwich the splat animation between, sync it up in after affects and splat! you are done.

    I just noticed that Eric didn't use a handheld microphone in the production blog.
    He looks more comfortable that way. Sometimes I find the handheld a bit distracting. Lavaliers. Love 'em.
