An evil council of magicians using an amiga 2000?
« on: January 11, 2013, 06:00:37 AM »
Of course they do, what other computer would an evil council of corrupt magicians use?

http://www.subcultureproductions.com/preview.html

The password for this preview page is "friends" no quotes.

The amiga 2000 is featured starting at around 48 seconds into the video.

Someone here helped me with the amiga shots... I can't find his original email... So special thanks to an Amiga.org member for that footage.

This is the rough edit of the first proof of concept video for a very different
kind of show for me. Its really technically crazy, using a great deal of specially built techno wizardry, and projected ghost effects inside our warehouse of insanity. I wanted to create a really different kind of illusion show, which used alot more technology than most guys use.

The ghost effects, they look so much cooler in person, really hard to capture
that on film effectively... Seeing this stuff live in your face coming at you is
pretty awesome.

Feedback would be greatly appreciated...

The work continues...

Steven

Yes a promo for a new kind of magic/illusion show, which is using alot of technology...

On the driving scenes, I'm new at this film making stuff, but I've learned that the more cuts the better sometimes, to hold the viewers interest.

I'd like to do more amiga scenes in the next one, maybe a room full of amigas being the evil councils secret super computer. THAT would be awesome.

I never did a driving scene before. Honestly, its not something I thought a lot about, just wanted to show the character driving to the warehouse. Next time I'll try and storyboard a more interesting way to film a driving scene.

These warehouse illusion shows will be in Philadelphia,pa.

I agree with everything you said, but going to try and apply lessons learned on the next one. Building this stuff and getting everything working was a big challenge.

Some of the video shots may look tight because the space we are filming in is not so large. I'm going to try mounting a camera on the back upper corner next. I'm hoping the shots will look wider then.

I have a higher quality render, but my web service only allows 200 meg files. The hq version is 240 megs I think, its just much higher rez.
