Weekend Extra - Hole in the Chest

Nice tutorial, good explanation. Only annoyance was the horrible audio, it sounded like you were eating the mike while you were talking.

Nice!

when she saw the photo

my mother almost duy

It was a nice effect. But it seems like a lot of work when in the finished product he can't move around. Great explanation though.

or you could just use motion track it with cs3

You have got to be kidding! Do you think it can get any more difficult. I am so amazed at all the directions and supplies...there has just got to be an easier way...how about special effects it in. Just paint the stomach green or blue and chroma key it out and create the special effects in After Effects...a lot easier...I think.

Move the whole thing higher on the actor... The ribs and esophagus wouldn't be in his abdomen. Nice effect!

this takes a lot of work and the effect was done pretty poorly,=.

For the love of god, do a better job with you audio. Otherwise, well done.

This is a good way to start out, but this technique would be difficult if you needed to move the hole elsewhere. I think most of the special effects for this would have to be done in Photoshop and After effects, using finger paint is something that I had not thought of, you can then blast a hole through someones head with a mini green screen! KAZAA!

Des war so langweilig!!

pretty good job, a bit much more work than needed though

completely useless

I need a good and Cheap videocam, do you now eny?

guys why not just say screw the box and just use the green screen belly thing and that would allow you to move around in your shots right?

it looks cool but i is complicated and you mast be steady, what means that you can't shoot any action then it is not realistic if someone makes hole in your chest you wouldn't just stay still.

Honestly, I did not like this episode at all. WAY too complicated for a "weekend" extra. And honestly, the final effect didn't look that good at all. If I wanted to do this effect, I would have approached it digitally with After Effects and Photoshop. Also yes, mentioning the use of motion tracking would have been better. Also, who stands perfectly still when they have a gaping hole in your chest!?!??!

1. You cut a hole in a box. 2. You put yo gore in that box! 3. Well you get where I'm going with this.

where the hell is steve nelson?!?!? all these guest people freakin suck ass!

don't listen to the people telling you to use photoshop or the people who say they can do a better job. it may be a lot of work for an effect that'll only be shown for a couple seconds, but i for one think it's a great payoff because it looks really cool.

I only have one question. When this guy will start working in BFX?

you really shouldn't have made that a shotgun blast

that is so stupid cost a lot and not look real if I will you, I will simply draw on photoshop and use after effect to apply. The way u use can't use for motion.

What the F?

greatest weekend xtra eva!!!!

i definitely would like to see more explanations of camera angles and lighting affects. and even the editorial process. maybe how to set moods of clips and stuff using the proper music and what not. HOOK IT UP!

Hey, what happened to Steve Nelson? HE WAS THE SHOW!!!!!!!

kinda bad because you cant move with it. you have so stand still

i don't like it... it's kind of disturbing and when would you ever need a hole in the chest??

its tasteless and disgusting............I LOVE IT!!!!!!

His video on youtube is good. But that guy needs some more friends

Wow, that was really good. Uber complicated but it was a really nice weekend extra.

like 200 steps, but very good

ohhh wow this needs some work, i wish i had time to show you how to do a more realistic one, this is a lot easeir though and cheaper

I agree. Great film but the ribs are in his stomach, wouldnt make much sense, but you put a lot of detail in this so way to go

If you don't have a greenscreen just crop his belly out.

dude, combine that effect with the BFG for that contest.

Very clever, the only advise that could be given is give more attention to proper anatomy (cause viewers rip things to shreds) but the idea is very well thought out. Thanks Indy Mogul!

Hmm... strange about ribs... they are too low or he is a genetic freak...

is the same guy in the beggining also the narrator? Because the narrator has like, a russian accent.

wow long time no see

Hey this video was great.. But wouldn't of it been easier being that the shot was locked down to just draw the hole in photoshop and then just tracked in on his chest... Then the cost would of been free!!!! I mean the hole you made looked GREAT and I could use a lot of the techniques to create other bloody things, but I could see glare on his chest from the blue paint and you even mention that you might have to track it.

WOW! Really thought out, this wouldn't be a last minute project. Excellent!

This was done very well. It seems complicated but it was explained amazingly.

Wow, lot a detail.

anybody commenting this vid??

awesome
