Your comment reveals one of the millions of little things that we audience members never even think about--how much or how little to all the different people working on a show get to experience and appreciate each others' work with the exception of everyone seeing the final product? I wonder, especially since so many of you have all be working together on this show for so long now, if you guys could find the time and a way to have in-house show-and-tells or "job shadowing" or little department open houses. Not only would it be fun, but the fact that you're a carpenter commenting on props makes me think there'd be neat lessons everyone could learn from a little "cross-training." I guess at the end of the day, the show needs to get made, and there are deadlines...and with the show having grown, everyone has more and more to do in the same time, so I can see how it would be difficult to indulge yourselves. It really seems like everyone involved in this show genuinely enjoys what they do. I hope that continues for everyone.
They're basically just for better weight distribution. They're not powered, no motors or anything, just give you better balance and mechanical advantage for certain tasks.
This one just springs. One just came out recently that is highly powered. it's way heavier so it has to compensate for its own weight and it amplifies your strength by 5
We were at Ad Astra, three of us. We had bought flight suits from a surplus on Yonge St., we made our own boots. It was while Season 1 had just aired. We ran into a guy who was con staff (apparently does Anime North too) and he was kind-of taken aback by our cosplay. We did the boots all manual. Didn't know about the slap bracelets. We took acrylic, laid out LEDs from a pick-and-place roll onto solid core wire, and glued that down to the acrylic. Then used a red acitate sheet over that. Same CR2032 batteries, but we didn't have the sockets so we put them between the 2 leads. This made them kind-of flaky, they would dim or turn off, but sometimes reliably. So you could stomp and make them turn on. Conrad said he thought we look like we lifted the suits from the set. He can be seen as one of the belters in S1 and I recall seeing him in the end of S3 too. So I guess he's still working on the show. Hi Conrad!
They never actually showed the crew dying. The ship was pulled apart, not them. It also seems like they could still breathe since they weren't suffocating. They would eventually die from either suffocation after they use up all the oxygen in that space or from starvation, which are pretty lame ways to die given the situation.
"So what we did is we bought an existing exoskeleton that would be sold to like home depots or anything for enhanced lifting, so repetitive motions." Hold up. The future is now?
He either exaggerated or doesn't know what the real world is like. Home depot doesn't use those things. Maybe one or 2 stores do but it definitely isn't common.
@@scottywills124 ruclips.net/video/zLWuHo63C8k/видео.html I believe the founder/engineer/inventor there explains the cost set up. How a company essentially leases these suits from them and doesn't have to maintain the suits either. They are here and with IBM's new battery tech: gizmodo.com/ibm-research-created-a-new-battery-that-outperforms-lit-1840535845 Along with adoption of no rare minerals/low usage in batteries we will have costs down and capacity up. Possibly without the dangerous explosion capabilities of Lipo. The future is now
It is truly amazing how simple tech advancements have made prop building so much easier and cheaper. Just wait in a couple of years all the images on those coms and tablets will be from micro projectors that are giving an animated image instead of using acetate film.
Wonderful to see episodes like this where cosplayers can see into the prop makers mindset, and that the prop makers are increasingly aware of the cosplaying scene. A question Adam: It's very clear to see how the prop and effects industry has impacted the Cosplayers, but do you know of anything the Cosplayers have done that has impacted the Propmakers? Whether from a design standpoint or a "Oh hey, that's really inventive, I never would have thought of making that THAT way before"? Maybe this could be an episode in and of itself?
This and some builds are my favourite thing in Tested, it's truly fascinating how they build this stuff. I wouldn't mind an extended version of this with more details
My family has been in the prop and mold making industry for about 30 years. We’ve all been watching you for as long as you’ve been on tv. My uncle even has been able to work with Jamie in the past, before you and him took off. Thank you for keeping the geekdom alive for me. You’re appreciated.
Omg! I love you Adam! I so enjoy watching your enthusiasm and massive intellect!! Your bounce reminds me of a little boy in a man's body! Adore you!! So enjoyed this episode.
@RJ Original MOVIES ha ha. If only! No. I'm a very happy married woman thanks and I'm sure he is a happily married man. It's perfectly ok to feel affection for another. He is adorable!
7:03 love the RadioShack AA cell case with the power switch. Used many of those back in my day when I worked for RadioShack, when case nodding was really DIY. Late 90s-early 00s.
As a propmaker, what I'd give to be there and explore every little corner of this INCREDIBLE production. As some people says, this video is too short for the amount of awesome that the show holds.
Fascinating!! I love these insights into the simple but ingenious ways stuff is brought to life - the snap bracelet lights and the plexiglass comms - brilliant!!!
I am soooo glad I came back and watched this. I won Clarissa's toolkit from the recent auction, and there are a couple little tab things that were tucked into some outer slots that were confusing me. Now I know they're the same cut-out slapband lights from the start of this video, all I need now is some batteries!
I LOVE seeing real-world familiar items repurposed into the expanse, as other things or even as themselves! Pretty sure I grabbed a flask the same as Murtry's in S4 (the GSI Boulder 10oz). I'm thinking of including it as a taken item with an Amos costume.
Thank you! I've been trying to decide how to do the boot lights and the HT for a few weeks now. Never cosplayed before, but I can't get enough of the Expanse!
9:00 Another reason the show is great. Good story and writing coupled with the fact it is directly based on "sort of" plausible science makes it just amazing.
Ha, I did my com very similarly! I used a small premade led with a switch, mounted it at the bottom of a piece of plexiglass and used a printed clear sticker. Super cool! Love the show, thanks for showing this!
I remember seeing several characters drinking from the exact same collapsible drinking cup I have for camping! Great idea for a ready-made prop and it makes total sense in the context of the show, shame it pulled me out of the scenes for a moment because I recognised "my" cup in the future 😂
I love seeing adam genuinely happy and interested in the guest. Also prop building from existing objects is fascinating. The documentary about the restoration of the BTTF delorean from universal studios was so good "Oh yea, we got that part from an army surplus in 1984, good luck finding another one"
As a Newish Cosplay builder, I now can appreciate the “found items” concept of prop making. Since I began building, I can’t go into a store and just casually shop any more. I’m always looking at stuff with the intention of using it for one prop or another. Don’t even get me started on movies and series!!! I can’t even watch anything without studying the bloody costumes and props!!! Aaarrrgghhh.
That's pretty fun. Glad you guys seem to enjoy your job. The Expanse show is great. Just started reading the books too. Thanks for all the hard work! Don't forget to spend time with your families too! ❤️🙏😊
Been watching Expanse since it aired because when I heard of it it ticked all the boxes for a major science fiction space adventure show nerd like me, and when I found out Amazon saved it from being dropped I was so happy. Its great to see some of the behind the scenes prop designed they have used and honestly if there was ever a show I'd work on a cosplay for as of right now Expanse would be it because its an evolving changing show where you never know what you might see the next episode that you can use in your cosplay.
Please more of this. BTW, I love pointing out to people that your suit lights are just black diamond headlamps and your sticky bomb in season one is a black diamond battery lantern. Good work with existing tech.
Just finished the expanse s5 (well up to date) and ive been loving these videos. I didnt get into The Expanse when it first launched but now im thoroughly obsessed and loads of my favourite youtube creators are too! another favorite is the spacedock ship breakdowns as they're hyper detailed and canon. Can we expect more stuff from you and the expanse in the future?
His face when he showed him the snap on bracelets was great lol he seemed to have 3 ideas of how to put a battery and bulb deal in the heel of the boot before his mind was blown 10/10
3:50 During my childhood, I would spend alot of time browsing through a hardware store, looking at little bits and pieces of things that I can potentially use for stuffs. really worth the time than playing video games nowadays kids do...
I think it's pretty awesome that that exact same LED strip that's in the bomb, I've got ≈15ft of it for my 3D printer and various other projects. Something as simple and cheap is amazingly useful for hobby projects and for multimillion dollar films.
I don't know if it was this guy in charge of set direction, but that gunfight on eros had me rolling my eyes when the heroes took cover behind plastic totes. Probably just because I work with those things every day, and I know they won't stop a bb. Much less a future tech space gun
FINALLY !!!!!!!! THe Episode EVERYONE will WANT to watch!!!... Teh Expanse : HOW TO !... sooooooooooooooooooooo awesome.... love the expanse..everything looks so darn plosible real on the show... LOve the boot.hack.lights... soooooooo clever.... strip.n.repurpose in a way it was not designed for... lol... just my thing..lol..thanks
@@sittingstill3578 I have it. I dont really watch tv, so i didnt noticed, but last time i checked IMDB it was only announced. I suppose i checked too long ago lol.
It’s amazing when you think that some of the ‘throwaway’ tech that is being incorporated in props these days far exceeds anything even the SF writers of 50 years ago could even dream up.
Perfectly replicating something that already exists for cosplay looks like it would be a very different challenge to making it from scratch for the first time. The propmaster has a lot more flexibility that a cosplay aiming for a perfect copy doesn't have..
Love all this stuff, spent all of my career as a carpenter but recently after working on set building for the BBC for a show coming soon, I've been wishing I'd got into this when I was younger.
@@CoercedJab I did it at school then went into an apprenticeship after leaving school, then learnt every day of my life since. I would say try to find a company that will help you. Just play around and see if you like working with wood you might not. Good luck
It's interesting the official prop crew doesn't call them "hand terminals" like they're referred to in the books but rather "comms". Given the collaboration these guys have with the writers it's probably a working term to save time. Really cool!
Here's the interview Adam did with Jim Murray in 2017, when he talked about weapons and helmets and more: ruclips.net/video/QXwe51lkJ6M/видео.html
Wow I missed that interview! This is the best Sci-Fi show of the past decade and they do such incredible work with everything.

This made them kind-of flaky, they would dim or turn off, but sometimes reliably. So you could stomp and make them turn on.

That was waaaaay too short of a show and tell. Could have watched a whole hour more of this.
Was thinking the same thing long before I'd even finished the 10 minutes of it.
Veritas. I'm for that.

It's supposed to inspire you to build not binge 🤣

The Expanse effects are amazing. Every scene looks better than most movies, and it is so impressive that they can do that with a TV budget.
Super interesting. Did anyone else see them use an UE BOOM speaker as the bomb/rocket in the series?
