Sweet Episode! Thanks for bringing back Q & Erik!!!!!
Pretty cool episode. Good to have regular Q&Erik back.
6th! this is the closest I've ever gotten to first!! ever!!!!
"Thhhaaaank yoouuu Weeesss" - that was too funny. These are fun videos :)
You ARE cool enough to use dawg, Erik. If they still refuse, ask Bridger to allow it. His voice is Indy Law!
hey I love your show, I was watching a video of the dark knight and was wondering how they did the whole Joker makeup to heather ledger..
i love Q and Erik
Is that Justin's girlfriend behind the desk too?
Yes INDEED! Good eyes
WOO! I was featured!!!
You need to work on your green screen setup. Perhaps a bit less light on the subject, because the in first part when he is spinning in the chair, you can see green as well as parts of the chair going in and out. Also in the end ("in three months") he holds up three fingers and they look webbed. Perhaps sharper lights on the subject, softer on the background, so you get those crisp edges around the fingers and chair holes.
isnt the bloody omaha technique the same one they use for the star wars movies during the clonetrooper marches
actually a lot of the stormtrooper/clonetroopers scenes were computer generated
ok guys i need a free or really cheap video editing software for mac that can do a cloning effect plz help! and does any 1 know if jashaka can do that?
hey can you guys give me some tips on how to film a musical, or music video type thing. cuz i'm having trouble doing this... yah.
Hey guys! You think you could hire me!? I'd love to come in and properly key your Q & Eric segment! No... seriously. Are you guys hiring? If not, I guess I can put up with Erik's webbed fingers... I guess.
i like playing with the yelling
See that guys? I'm always checking the uploads for video questions, so make sure you send them in. Erik makes me check for them every thursday!
You don't need to use a green screen to make the soldiers pass over each other...just some very careful and annoying masking. It's a matter of going frame by frame when the characters are over lapping, which is annoying, but if they only pass over each other briefly, then it's not so bad. It will also save on setting up, lighting and keying a green screen.
Not sure about other programs, but in After Effects you can also feather the mask to make the edge soft, so it doesn't look as fake...this will work really well if the soldiers are far from the camera.
Does Erik have webbed hands?
Hey, Im Dave and I love making movies with my $150 SD card camera. Cheap and fun. I use WMM because I just dont have anything else but soon that will all change. Im Into alot of 50s sci fi and b-grade horror. Mwahahahaha. Check out my vid "Evil Space Robot" on youtube.
