Alternately, do a Google image search - you'll want to get pictures of dirt/smudges/etc. on a black background to make your life easier.
Good god. Every time I watch their VFX breakdowns I'm even more impressed. These guys are amazing.
HOW DARE YOU MY HARD DRIVES ARE TOTALLY GREAT
They're terrible
They put so much thought into their videos
It makes the whole composition look better. For one the shot outside the car isn't overexposed and/or inside the car isn't underexposed. It also gives them more control over the footage they use.
The words that are coming out of your mouths sound like magic, but I can't stop listening. They're hypnotising and make me want to create as well, even though I barely even get what some of the technical words mean!
I find very funny that everything they do is completely invisible for us in the final footage, but when you watch this, everything it become pretty obvious. Nice video guys, keep doing the great job! :D
I'm highly impressed on how much you guys did and take away to make this happen.
I'm always so impressed by your attention to detail. I would never have thought about things like reflections on the cars.
Wow, that's a lot of complex stuff you guys have going on. It looks so natural once it's all done!
Incredible detail, so awesome! down to the dirtyness of the glass, thats just awesome!
Freddie explains his effect I nod in understanding. Brandon starts talking and my brain melts.
The wheel is actually going in the correct direction because of the stroboscopic effect. It is caused by the human eye only being able to see at roughly 24fps which means that when something is moving faster than that it will start to look blurry, when it gets to a certain speed it can begin to look like the wheel is moving backwards or in some cases not at all.
You guys are insane, I hope RUclips is paying you guys what you deserve.
Wow you guys are amazing!! I had no idea this much work went into each video!
There needs to be a compilation video of all of the mistakes you guys have found in previous videos. Thumbs up if you want this!
This channel is so good! Thank you for your misadventures and effect breakdowns.
The rotating backwards is due to the camera's frame rate, you see that sort of thing quite often in videos of wheels moving. At 3:45 he shows the shot of the wheels spinning that they took and you see it there. Heck, some wheel designs make it appear the wheel is rotating the wrong way to the naked eye.
Very good video. I like seeing practical tutorials like this and from people who are working under filmmakers conditions, not the perfect conditions 'tutorials people' ALWAYS seem to have :P
Thanks!
That was fucking mindblowing. You guys really know your trade, not that I didn't already think so before.
BROTHERLY LOVE PART II!! FREDDIE WE NEED YOU!!
Brandon, your laughter is epic!
i dont know if you guys have any fans from nigeria. i am ur number one fan here. seen all ur work and i follow u guys like crazy. one day i will be making epic videos like you guys preety soon
Wow, you guys sure don't half-ass your weekly videos! Awesome work!
does anybody else love watching these special effect videos even though you dont understand any of it?
I have no idea what any of this means, but I love Freddie and Brandon, so I still watch the video!
I love VFX breakdowns!!!!
I notice that something was really weird on that scene, now I figured out what is: The illumination is wrong, the light on original shot comes from the front and the sun on background is behind the scene... But their work keeps AMAZING!!!
One of the big differences to me between regular and slow motion muzzle flares is the fact that you can use a single picture for a regular one but you need a video for the slow mo ones
absolutely astonishing
That's essentially the point actually. As an editor, you don't want people to notice that you put something in (unless it's like lightsabers or something). You want it look natural. If they notice anything, it's probably because it doesn't look natural enough to fool them.
I know jack about video effects, hell, I don't even want to get into movie making or anything of the sort, yet, here I am.. fascinated.
I like VFX breakdown made by freddiew2 very much!!! speacially the 12 days VFX!!!! Thank
Freediew and his partners!!
Wheels can appear to move backwards because the camera's happen to record at a slightly faster speed than the wheel spins.
我一直持續關注著你們 雖然我聽不太懂英文 但是 只能說你們是 Genius!!!
11 out of 12 promises? LIKE how we need the 12th day of VFXmas!
Don't forget about Final Cut Pro for the literal editing of the video before or sometimes after the visual effects are done.
Ever looked a spinning wheel? Its called a "wagon-wheel effect". You can see it on the footage where they took it, wheel appears to turn in the opposite direction.
So some of your other videos, you don't do shot lists/storyboards. For videos like this that have so many special effects, did you do one?
Well, the theory is hard to understand but when you start making the FX it becomes alot easier ...
The knowleage is not enough, the creativity is the key (and something that I dont have)
seems like it would have been easier just to have freddie do this in real life :) either way, you guys are amazing at what you do, big things are definitely coming your way
So good. Love watching all your videos.
1. You should use the first driving footage for the reflection on the rear window.
2. Mirror the second scene so the cars are driving on the right side.
@freddiew2 This is really interesting! Great to see how you put all of it together and make it look so realistic! Great work guys, keep it up :D
wow. That is a ton of work for sure. Great job guys.
I'm wondering why you guys used two different shots instead of shooting it all at once. Did you use professional drivers for the hood cam shot or something?
a 2 hour movie from you and your team would be awesome :DD
sweet product placement at 0:13 on freddie's desk!
Damn. xD You guys made what seemed so simple, so difficult and yet it still comes out amazing.
@lancevance12 The wheels are spinning in the correct direction, but the camera and monitor used to record and view would need to have a super high refresh rate in order to view it properly. That, or possibly tediously syncing the fps and the car speed. Next time your on the highway (in the passenger seat!) record the wheels of a car in your lane. The same thing will happen.
If anyone wants to know anything about vfx editing or after effects in general just send me a message and ill answer you right away.
Nice tutorial. But why are the cars on the left side of the road for the transfer shot?
Whoa, they really do think of everything!
instead of zooming it to remove the black edges, could you then parent a 3D camera to the background plate? It would keep the insane hand motion, but it may be something worth trying?
Mother of VFX. Nice work, Iike this kind of videos :D
Geezus, the best special effects are the ones you didn't realize were effects at all o.O
What kind of mouse is freddie useing there, and better then the kind , what mouse in specific??? Thanks for the anwser ^^
Looks like a Logitech Marble Mouse, art nr: 910-000808
As always, another awesome video.
I have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA whats going on here.
freddie, PLEASE start a serious where you start from the basics so beginners can learn how to do this :)
I know it will be a lot of effort for you but I'm sure many of us will appreciate it.
THUMBS UP if you agree!
thanks for making this video, guys, it was very helpful! and also I can't wait for VGHS, I know it'll be great!
That luma key is brilliant, i would have spent hours manually keying out every color in the background!
Cameras don't record everything as fast as eyes can, so that's why in movies the car tires often look like they're going backwards. Next time you watch a movie with cars driving at top speeds, watch the rotation of the tires. Not all movies display this, but most do.
no, if you've ever watched wheels on the highway, they look like they're spinning slowly backwards if you stare at them for a moment. it's an optical illusion, and they nailed the effect. seriously, look at highway wheels sometime.
freddew, how do you know what your FPS is because when i put GoPro footage into HitFilms, its really jittery and laggy
that's a trick of your eyes. when you look at a wheel spinning really fast, when you relax it looks like it's going backward. to test this, create a simple wheel with spokes on powerpoint, then tell it to, for example ,spin 4000 degrees in 5 seconds clockwise. it will sometimes look like it's going counter-clockwise.
Shouldn't the vehicles be on the other side of the double yellow lines? The Clip of them from the side shows them on the left side of it.
nice breakdown i enjoy breakdowns better than tutorials
I can't believe I almost missed this video!!
awesome
love the vids where you explain things like this
more !!
are the wheels moving in the opposite dierection, the cars are moving in?
what software did you use to do the 3d motion tracking.
Love the skate shirt Brandon
Brandon you should try to blur freddie and the cars just a little bit and put some grain on it. They still look too clean and out of place. Also if you put a little color correction generally over the footage it will merge into the scene easier. A lens flare would help out here very well ;) Other than that Im amazed by the compositing stuff !
so... beautiful
I think there's a weird camera angle difference, since the footage of the bridge is filmed from the car and the footage of the transfer is filmed near ground level. Aside from this the video is great
good point, but i think freddie said in this video that for whatever reason they couldn't get the shot correctly or something like that
I can't wait to become as professional as you guys! :D
hey freddie,
i was wondering if you could show us how you convert your dslr footage to a format you can edit on with out the whole drop frames all that annoyingness. Please respond because i think u probably would no how to do it quickly and easier.
wow detailed vfx breakdown! thanks a lot for this! :)
You guys are really talented!
You guys create magic. :D
THANK YOU!!!!!!!! this was great i thought they were never gonna do it!!!!
that is some professional editing right there
@Freakenomics the beauty of RUclips...
Indeed informative !!! Thanks you guys for keeping up the promise! :)
You are really underestimating these guys. They arent as dumb as you think.
What about the skates hitting the pavement when Freddie steps out of the car? Shall I deduce that you took the high adventure route of ACTUALLY stepping out of a moving car and in the interest of not encouraging anyone else to try such a daring maneuver, you have omitted providing a breakdown of the shot?
how did you manage to get the greenscreen out of the reflection from the car?!?
wow, some black magic edits. Very impressive and would love to learn/attempt them.
yes, roto or rhotoscoping is the process of going frame by frame and masking out an object or person, it is very tedias and if you can u should use a green screen.
if i havnt explained it well enough just send me a personal message and ill go into detail.
that was actually exactly how i would have done it....awesome and thanks guys
Great work dudes. Clever process.
hey freddiew2 what movie maker program do you use
You guys are wizards!!
dunno if this was answered, but have you eveer tried to expose interior and exterior shots? need 2 different exposures unless u have an awesomecamera that does HDR
freddiew + MW2 montage = INSANE EDITING
That was intense. I have a lot of studying to do.
I wish to be as good as you guys one day. this is sick
what video editing software do you use?
What program did they use for 3d tracking?
Often when shooting a real rotating wheel, the time it takes for a wheel to make one full revolution is a bit more than the time it takes to capture one frame by the camera. Putting all frames together, this creates the illusion that the wheel is spinning in the opposite direction. Try watching some videos about an accelerating wheel being filmed, it'll flip rotating forwards and backwards throughout the acceleration.
