LOL I KNEW IT...great guys I was hoping that would be her new boy toy
Ceewl..! But why green screen? LoL
Apperantly oyoure usiing to much green screen! :(
Otherwise, good showe!!
omg, btw the "test film" Was soooo awesome!!!!
ROFL "hear me now..... bitches"
you hear me now bitches? that was great
nobody said first so 6th!
lol good episode
Great info, Steve! :D
Good Episode! BTW whoever the girl was, she is a hottie, so if she is, like your sister or something, go ahead and send her my way! ;)
She's my girlfriend! So, thanks, I guess
Awwwkkward...
Pretty good series considering how deep film audio can get. My only suggestion is this: If you can, get someone who knows about sound. Handling sound on a video can be a handful, and if you've got someone who cares about it watching over it, it frees you up to do everything you want to do.
YAY! PART 2! XD
I didnt say first because i see that EVERYONE wants to be the first one on here and just types first...I wanted to be different:)
If you use more than one of those radio microphones, wont there be crossed signals?
No unless the Lapel mics are broadcasting on the same frequency.
o my gooooooood!! best test film(type thing i guess) yet!
Cool episode! The audio in the test film kicked butt too! And you used my post from the forum!
Btw, about that, my name is Kevin-A-Z, Not "Kevinahz". I demand a public apology from Steve for your libelous behavior against my name!
Awesome. Although, the revenge scene should have had some kill bill references in it, in my opinion...
just a suggestion...
or a critique...
It's just how I would have done it...
best test film ever
so THAT's why it's called a BOOM mic.
I was a little disappointed that Ghost Steve didn't also have a bad accent. But he got an extra-cool tapestache, so that's probably compensation enough...
and he shoots flames out of his neck, which is just.. strange.
But Steve.. I have to ask, and please answer... why do you hate your past self so much? I mean, sure you from the past.. sure you were always stealin and you smelled bad like poo, and your girlfriend left you for possibly the stupidest reason in history.... and to be honest, past steve was kind of weasily and whiny... but...
I mean, he had nice hair, and apparrently never locked his apartment. You should have been nicer to past/present Steve.. presast Steve... I can see why he killed Pre.. fut.. Pruture Steve.
Good example of dialog overlapping though, and you did a pretty convincing job with the clone scenes. I am a little curious about the video, it seemed almost like you had keyed both of you into your own single scenes... that was strange looking.
Oh yeah, I loved it if you couldn't tell.
what you just said confused to me to a whole new level!
what ever this means is wierd!

Well in the film, Steve travels back from 20 minutes in the future, to help "Past Steve" learn about sound.
Unfortunately the filming takes longer than 20 minutes, so "Future Steve" becomes "Past Future Steve in the Present" or "Pruture Steve".
"Past Steve" moves forward into the present, but DOESN'T travel back in time to teach himself Ssound, creating a split timeline. In this second timeline, Past-Present Steve, who we'll call "Presast Steve" pulls out a gun and shoots his former future self (Pruture Steve) from the alternate timeline, which results in Presast Steve's death as well.
Following this, on the Spirit Plane, The Ghost of Jack Foley and his Ghostly Friend "Sen?" (who may in fact be Steve's Roommate, Bobby) seem to be playing Hand Slaps, when the ghost of "Steve" appears to exact his GHOSTLY REVENGE (for the fact that Ghost Foley took off with Steve's really amazingly picky former girlfriend.)
The thing that concerns me.. is this.
At the point where Past Steve failed to travel back in time to teach himself about sound, a divergent timeline was created. In this second timeline, there are now two Steves. The steve that is native to this timeline (with the gun) and the visiting steve (in the jedi robes).
At the point where "Presast Steve" kills "Pruture Steve" there is some confusion. It seems that this act did indeed result in the death of BOTH Steves.
So... where is the second Steve Ghost?
And if you're not confused yet, I'll be happy to go over it a few more times... since I can't understand how killing a Steve from an alternate timeline can in any way harm the steve native to this timeline.. unless of course Presast Steve was wrong about no longer being from the future.
Is it possible that "Presast Steve" lives? and does not die in the killing of "Pruture Steve?" Might Presast Steve go on to discover timetravel and travel back in time to teach himself about sound, only to be killed by his past-past self as he killed his future self?
If so.. why is Steve so insanely stupid to go back in time and BOTHER teaching himself about sound? frankly as far as I can tell, "Steve without sound knowledge" is a weasily guy who whines too much.. but Steve WITH sound knowledge becomes a jerkoff who insults himself and then gose on a ghostly killing spree.
Can you KILL ghosts?
Kudos tho for the "LAVA-leir" pun.
I ... I love you for this.
I was actually talking to Steve about how if you actually WROTE out what happened in this series in a coherent way, it would make absolutely not sense, and also be ridiculous. You did a bang-up job.
i think she should win something for longest, most confusing, and best comment ever...
AHHHHH!!! 21!!!!! WOOT!!!!! Oh...
That lighting and costume for the final scene was BITCHIN! Where was the light coming from?
Steve your hilarious keep up what your doing. lol
-Wayne
lol
The best part has got to be the very end! Steve's Ghost is so much wittier then old Steve.....poor, pathetic old Steve.
this one was done alot better than the last weekend extra
Great Episode, I NEVER want to get on Steve's bad side and his costume and stuff at the end reminded me of Hot Fuzz
Erik really loves hand slaps
wait.. was that the ghost of past steve or future steve?
Pruture steve
you sure it wasn't presast steve?
actually, i think that their ghosts combined, making a better Steve than he could ever possibly be in real life.... lets just call him "Millinium Steve!!"
I hope this is not last part of audio saga!
ya hear me now bitches?
why was Steve green screened in the kitchen?
so is foley a ghost or homeless?(or both)
Audacity is so kick ass 8D
yo!! I luv indy mogul!
I love your sausages
those ARE good sausages!
BOOMSHAKALAKA!
Best indymogul line ever.
tight!!! fruityloops rocks, i can make a 6 minute song in 2 days, but ive been using it for years so its a lot easier for me.
That was bloody halarious guys. GREAT STUFF!!!!
You guys are awesome! Why am I green screened? Because we didn't have a blue screen. Peace!
Were you no longer able to film in the kitchen? had that set been dismantled already? was there some reason why you HAD to use a chromakey effect to insert yourself into the kitchen?
Time, time was to blame.
I need alien make up for a move called attack of the fat cats
Monkey from the bomb squad is evil,mean,and devious
I need Fake Mussels
I need fake biceps and pecs
How bout fake mussels?
Steve is evil and mean.
just joking steve
This was awesome. Great advice, lots of useful tips, and a really great (sounding) end piece. Nice job! I love the lighting on the test film at the end.
lol at 00:29, Steve's hand disappears. Also there is a green line around him from the green screen effect.
Steve the Lav System you show in the back on ebay I am looking to buy myself. But does that include everything you show in the shot? Because the ad looks the same but I'm not sure the pack you put in your pocket comes with it and I didnt see a hot shoe piece, just a big modual. HELP
lol! I cannot get over Steve's little "Hear me now...?" comment. Ha! (you just had to throw in the extra "Bitches") Loving the tash too.
So I hate to be such a freak, but did ANYONE else notice that there some background music that sounds EXACTLY like the "Eternal Song" theme from the LG15 series?!?!
I sort of hate myself for recognizing it. >_
Scariest Movie = John Carpenter's .... wait for it "The Thing". So much better than any of his other movies it's not even funny. Even better than the effects is the well crafted element of suspense, I've seen it many times - and i still get anxious about what will happen next every time i watch it.
Why did u use a green screen when you can use the cloning effect that you showed us in an earlier episode????
CONFUZZLED
I NEED FAKE MUSSELS!!!!
muscles*
brilliant :)
Cool, quite useful when needed
i love your vids!!

You smell bad....Like Poo.
Hilarious =D
