Guys it is amazing - absolutely amazing - and I'm learning a megaton from you. There is one thing however about all "underwater" fakes that is pretty much impossible to avoid; it immediately betrays the footage wasn't actually shot in the water. The trick is that, as any diver can testify, due to how water refracts light, the light rays look very different when you look upwards from the depth. Simply speaking, instead of light rays coming to one point above the surface of the sea, you see them as if they are focusing on yourself, spreading as they rise to the sea surface. Which of course doesn't drop the quality of your work.
There's a German Sci-fi series from the sixties where they have spaceships starting from underwater. They too used carbon tablets for bubbles. It's nice to see techniques from then are still handy today.
Raumschiff Orion... great show?! Came out even before Star Trek. By a year or so. They had household apliences für Technical equipment. Resourceful but not very... immersive :D
@@moranjackson7662 I recently watched the show for the first time. It is surprisingly good, I was expecting it to be much more cheesy. Every set set designer should watch the show!
Great vid! I would love to see some of those saline tank effects they used to make clouds and storms for things like Close Encounters or Poltergeist. Heard about that set up but never quite understood how that worked.
Yes. I am giddy that they got a tank but a bit dissapointed they haven't gone full cloud tank mode... yet. :D I am sure it's on the to do list. But also. Not only do the saltwater sweetwater split with milk clouds but hopefully also rig up a motion controlled milk dispenser like Trumbul buit for Close encounters so he could repeatedly draw in the shapes in 3D and get that flat cloud bottom with the saltwater layering.
I really enjoyed your little film, although I did burp a lot? You didn't reach the giddy heights of Derek Meddings in his 'Stingray' or Thunderbird 4 action scenes but you gave that James Cameron a run for his money. Seriously, you managed to create atmosphere which shows what is capable without going full, Hollywood or CGI. Great work, keep it up - looking forward to your future fishtank productions; [here we go] 'Voyage to the bottom of the tank', 'The Dip 3D', 'Night Jaws' featuring Steradent standing in for AlkaSeltzer, and not forgetting '20,000 leaks under the tank'. Don't need a Pun-man? No, I thought not!
7:25 The opening scene of the birth of our galaxy in the film "Tree of life" used these exact techniques to achieve all of the shots you see of the galaxy being born!
I was lucky enough to get to visit Doug Trumball's studio when he produced our feature a few years ago. Super nice guy, and even at his age now, he's still trying to push the envelope with all kinds of cool technology in camera work.
You guys are more valuable than the entire year of film school I love your channel I hope you get rich from RUclips I hope you get more recondition and honestly I just love you guys
amazing guys.. I may get into this myself at some point.. but it's quite a bit of outlay with the water tank.. and alot of weight, unless your on a ground floor level.. I'm in a flat.. so I'm a bit concerned I'd flood the flat lol.. love to try this though..just thinking out loud here, but could you have achieved this shot by filming the sub behind the tank, so you still got all the layering going on in front, but rig up the sub behind the tank and infant of a green screen or blue screen, I don't know what the issues are here, but could that have solved some of the issues you had with lighting and blacking out etc...
Great question! As Vimeo doesn't need to handle anywhere near the traffic YT does, one would hope their compression is less savage. We'll do some tests!
@@InCameraTV I'm an anime fanatic, aspiring filmmaker, and fine artist; of course I'm gonna spot anything remotely associated to very cool intellectual property I adore! LOL Cheers! And, do a quick tutorial on practical miniature waves washing ashore, I need it for my first short film, please!
Did a video shoot in aquarium as well for my movie. We used 25l tank + water and added some Calpis Soda (Japanese milky soda drink. P.S. actually quite good) and put Nanlite Forza with spotlight lens on top to achieve light rays in the water. I wish we had much bigger aquarium, but at the end of the day we've got the result. P.S. Keep on going guys! With love from Russia and Japan!
I wonder if platsidip would be great to black out the sides… if I ever get a tank and need to shoot some eerie swirlies, I’ll try that and let you know 😆
Could you reimagine the titanic break-up (1997, cameron) ? - i saw here some promising examples on youtube (handmade no cgi) already, so maybe break up plus how the titanic sinks (in such an environment)...
I just discovered your channel. I've loved visual effects since I was a kid, especially in-camera effects. Watching this video reminded me of the nebula effects in the "Stargate" sequence of "2001: A Space Odyssey." They used similar techniques in a small area. If you're looking for subjects for future shows, may I suggest foreground miniatures and forced perspective?
I would really like to see a tutorial on the editing process!! Now next question: who did the "Downward Squirt...of the milky substance" into the tank!? 😂😂😂😂
Hey guys I love the video, you definitely blow me away. Especially with the Milk effects. Have you ever tired something like the opening aura shot from the Tree of Life movie? It’s right before the fish tank effects and reminds me of a flame but it’s more of like an organic light leak of some kind. Anyway, love the video, great work.
Any high frequency detail will truly be annihilated by RUclips, man that shot of bubbles suffered something terrible! It's a shame, because that sort of thing can be so pretty!
Filp the mica shot and tint it orange and you have a nuke! Your static bubbles might make a nice star field for spacey shots. Would shooting through the narrow end allow you to get that depth, front to back, that you want? A piece of hose will allow you to syphon the water saving the bucket work. Filming somewhat near a drain, would allow easy direct draining...
I really liked the effect of the ripples as your hand entered and left the water. Perhaps a small fan blowing across the surface of the water with a high frame rate would be worth trying. It should look awesome when played back at normal speed
Amazing Work! Really in love with you guys 😇 Do you guys think you can create the Death Star I battle? You know either the trench run or just X-Wings vs Tie Fighters on the Death Star? Or both?
I'd love to learn more about "gaffing" and lighting in general, so a video in which you explain your exact process or even a course, would be so great (:
We’ve covered lighting in plenty of videos, but could always do one exclusively on it! Check out our Psycho house episode for a good one that coverings lighting miniatures
At 8:45 , alka-seltzer is dropped into the tank. For Aussies, that's the equivalent of aspro-clear or disprin, lol. Meanwhile, great vid! I've loved these types of effects since going to see the Flash Gordon movie in '80 😂! We dinosaurs adore this stuff 🦕 !
I'm so jealous. I want these shots to use in some of my stuff. I don't have the cameras and lights to be able shoot it myself. Ya'll should post the better quality one somewhere away from the RUclips algorithm. Wink wink. I am just kidding. I would never use anyone's stuff without permission. Nice job, y'all. It looks incredible.
@@InCameraTV Thu Schufftan process is filming into a mirror. It's good you can just flop the video later in post, but you have to design it around the fact that it's a reversed image.
Wow!, things really have come on leaps and bounds in the way you can composite shots, seems as easy as pye these days...enjoyed your tank foray and was taken back to my childhood watching Stingray. You mentioned ideas for future videos and being a Gerry Anderson fan, along with Derek Meddings...I always liked the explosion at the end of the opening credits to Thunderbirds, a random refinery somewhere, with these big explosions one after the other - I'd like you to mimic that 💥💥💥 lovin all that you do 🤘👍😀
This is the third of your videos that I've watched. You got my sub. I've learned so much in just three videos. The dry-for-wet technique and then the wet tank work in this video, huge amount of knowledge shared there. Up till now, I've done very little video work, mainly because I'm rarely happy with the final results. You've spawned many little ideas in my head. I just might be encouraged enough to set up a few little rigs in my shop to practice some of this. Thanks for sharing this kind of knowledge in such a clearly demonstrated fashion. Some of the terms and phrases you've used are, as of yet, unknown to me. Clearly, I still have much to learn. Great stuff, this is. And great fun seeing and learning how it's done. BTW, at 03:15 in the background, just to Tommy's right, there is something that appears to be a, how shall I put this, a D.O.U.S. (dong of unusual size). What's up with that?
Great work as always!! Would love to see you guys play around with the slit scan effects used in 2001. Also check the beginning of Kwaidan (1964) for some truly spectacular water tank/ink effects during the credits.
I'm curious as to how you go about camera matching miniatures with actual size. How do you match the perspective/lens/dof of actual size in miniature? For instance, set extensions, having the FG actual size with people and the BG is miniature. Is there math or do you just eyeball it?
Would love to see you attempt stop motion using miniature models something similar to the battle of Hoth. Btw your facial hair reminds me of a magician/mystic and now it makes sense because your a magician of VFX! Edit: me and you both mentioned Giger at the same time. A man of culture!
Have you guys ever done any life size underwater stuff in a pool? Would love to see that. Like Jaws where they used milk in a swimming pool for some scenes.
I was thinking, if the lowest values are messing with the contrast while stacking the layers with additive blending modes. Then maybe you can simply crush those lowest values to a nice flat black before layering them? Because while 0.002+0.001 makes 0.003 and so on then if you clip the low end you'd have 0.000+0.000 and still have 0.000 as the result and can layer hundreds of layers. Sure, one will loise a tiny bit of edge detail on the particles as they blend to pure black instead of a noise floor. But with the channel resolution of that camera you have lots to spare before it becomes too crunchy when rendered.
Personally as someone who is interested in created a WW2 short film but with 0 budget (I absolutely loved your Dresden plane video it was so cool) how would you recommend or personally go about filming on a modern phone? Your creativity to overcome problems seems to have no bounds so you seem perfect to ask ☺️
FilmicPro is a well regarded app that allows you to manually control your phone's camera (focus, f stop, white balance, iso etc) so that's the best place to start!
Amazing video as aways!! I'd love to see a more in depth video about the lighting process, i know there's so much more knowledge involved than what you fit in the video, and you guys do an incredible job with light!!!
Thanks for all the great stuff guys! Maybe you could do some slit scan film techniques and try and recreate like a 2001 A Space Odyssey. Your fancy motion control rig should come in handy for that. And possibly even compare the camera style verses what can be made with simple CGI software.
If you think you may do much in the way of fine bubbles rising in the future, I would think a small air compressor feeding material with super fine holes so the bubbles come out small, would keep the tank clean. I can't think of the name of it but there is a stone that air can pass through to do that. Great work though on what you have done.
That's a great shout! We were working pretty 'quick and dirty' on this one. It would be ideal to have the tube(s) fixed inside the tank so the water isn't disturbed by by hands moving around!
APOLOGIES!!! We used compressed exports of the sub sequence shots on our timeline so they look REALLY BAD after recompression. To see them in a less terrible state check Ep1 of this series. Oh what fun this is!
ALSO! We will be making the sub sequences AND tank elements shots available to our Patrons very soon!
Of course, you wouldn't get cavitation bubbles on that sort of submarine propeller. They are designed specifically to avoid leaving bubble trails.
I was thinking exactly that when I saw the shot
Fancy seeing you here Lindybeige!
That was so cool, especially that Giger shot!!
The results are incredible for "just a demonstration." Great work!
Thanks as always, Kyle!
And tons of stuff they may use later. Seams that's a fun bit.
