    I love it when Captain inserts himself into the shot without mentioning it. It's like he's explaining their editing techniques while simultaneously mocking it. Like a "look what I can do". It's so sarcastically done, I love it.

      You're confused, the artists who made these shitty commercials were trying to get it done in the least amount of time with the money they were given. They are probably laughing that so much frame by frame analysis went into something they did in a weekend and never cared about.
      Don't teach new artists to do everything frame by frame perfect, it's just makes you insane and broke.

      Yep exactly Jon, and it is the same problem with some computer programmers. The objective was met within budget, the client was happy, that is all that really matters in the business world not how perfect the details of your work are.

    • @CesarDaSalad
      @CesarDaSalad 7 лет назад +22

      Jon Shaffer I disagree. As artists, they can learn what not to do from professional mistakes as much as from flawless works. And students shouldn't be taught how to do the bare minimum for their job; they should be taught how to excel and stand out in their field. Whether they want to actually make an extra effort to be the best is up to them, but at least their education should give them the chance. It's what higher education should be about anyways.

    • @ThatBoomerDude
      @ThatBoomerDude 7 лет назад +12

      Students should be taught how to excel AND how to do the bare minimum. If they can't do the bare minimum, they will never be successful. Engineers and techies often are horrible business people who have no sense of budget at all. It is imperative to get the job done to the satisfaction of the client and do NO more.

    I always think it’s so impressive how he manages to place himself in shots, or visually deconstruct scenes when all he has to work with is a shoddy quality compressed internet video. Like he must have to spend ages degrading his recorded footage and dealing with blocky compression artefacts to match the source when a VFX studio (by comparison) would always have the luxury of raw high def footage to work with.

    I worked with an ad company once that produced an ad where someone bounced a basketball on his head over and over while taking off shirts that had different messages on them, ending with a shot of him bouncing it into the basket. Know how they faked that? They didn't. According to the director, it only took a few shots. You can hear them all cheering in the ad. They left that in as a sound effect.
    They also produced ads with visual effects, of course. That just wasn't one of them. I worked with a guy who built a motor to spin to Tostitoes chip like a basketball. On that Tostitoes commercial, they also had a continuity specialist come in to re-set the bowl of chips after every take so it looked right. She was adjusting the salsa with a toothpick. I was both impressed and amused.

    • @Just_A_Dude
      @Just_A_Dude 5 лет назад +26

      I'd absolutely believe it. They call special effects "movie magic" for a reason, and 90% of pulling off the more mind-boggling effects is doing something in a way so convoluted, and with so much attention to fine detail, that no sane person would ever imagine doing it that way.

    That was fascinating, thank you. Love watching those details exposed so clearly. It's very cathartic somehow. Also I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the political situation of gendered races, and how much religions have appropriated it.

      This is who Netflix should have paid instead of Bill Nye. This guy could bring some real education to kids and how to navigate whats real and fake on the internet. I have learned so much watching this guys channel. Props to this man.
