Awsome effects guys thanks
First. Weekend extra is back!
nice idea!
is Q & erik live going up? cause i live in holland and 4 me it was 1 am
it better be online, i watched it but there was to much lag, didnt see much (belgium btw)
i hope there's a reorded version, because i couldn't participate. there was nothing on the page besides the heading...no way to participate.
after the show, they left the audio on accidently and you could hear them discussing that they accidentally never recorded it, but they hoped that someone recorded it on their home computer and posted it
Awesome simple effect, I also missed the live Q&Erik, when is it going up?
its not going up becasue ramon forgot to turn on the other camera. so we cant watch it
to be honest i was thinking how to pull off an afect like that today, its seems simple but efective
still have 2 questions
how would you do it on the ground, like when somebody is runnig from gunfire and the bullets make the sand fly up
and second question
how do you geth that color in your video, it looked cool and gave it a nice mood
check out one of the earlier Q and Eriks for the sand from the ground trick, also you can use party poppers for this same effect; just take out the first disc and the confetti, then fill it with flour and pull it.
great stuff Mogul team!
I have also found some Chromakey ricochets.

thank god! weekend extra!!!!!!
Very nice...
Need Q&Erik live! Post it!
Hey that dude was from finland... Nice and simple effect
nice
absolutely genius!
how can i submit something?
wait.... oh, i m such a idiot right right now!
there's no "d" in speilburg
NO!!!! I like weekend extra! It's cool! I think most people would agree! Besides, you can fit a whole lot more tips into an episode that isn't limited to 4 minutes!
PS. Where's Steve?
19th!
Very nifty. Gotta love Weekend Extra.
Props! Pretty good effect!
Hejhog101 you are right we want Weekend Extra
The test film looked really good! :) Great, cheap and effective effect!
yea weekend extra
cool effect
lol, brilliantly simple
Wow, Eric...you look like crap. Sweet tip, by the way!
What I did for bulletHits Is I bought pasta shells and I put flour in one pasta shell and covered the back by gluing (with elmers glue) another pasta shell to the back. With this set up, my crew and I, now could throw these shells at walls and it would look like a bullet actually hitting a wall. the only problem is that you would need to make a bullet hole in post with photoshop. The cool thing is that the shells acted like chunks of wall and the flour as wall bits finely ground into a powder :P
Above tip sounds interesting, will have to try it
I like that you guys put in another viewer submission that was cool
That's a really cool effect man, good job.
Any suggestions for metal ricochets?
Go into an editing program and make the metal flash where you want the bullet to ricochet and add a pwatwang!
Weekend Extra AND Four Minute Film School....both totally awesome, maybe they should kinda take turns if that makes sense, to satisfy everyone.
Oh and i like that guy that did the weekend extra, effect was simple but the way he used it and also the way his whole submission was made was just awesome!
SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!I might use this tip for a sci fi film i'm making!
No test vid? And no more weekend extra? Anyway sorryI had to start off negative but that was an amazing tutorial check out my eye changing tutorial at http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=UgllIN7GsQU
hey indy i think u sould ma giant claws like the ones from spider man 3 or 4 i think lol
Haha! "PERUNAJAUHO" from Finland! But anyway, cool and really cheap effect!
