When I saw the tokyo backdrop at the start I was thinking:" Tommy must've poked some holes in the backdrop" ... Sure enough a couple of minutes later I was proven correct :D
Oh yes!
Idea for (recognizable) set pieces after they are not needed: sell them as "collectibles" to an auction house.
City of Bristol College would love some old flats, and we can collect. We are in the mids of revamping our studio.
No other channel is like this on RUclips, an amazing insight into the film industry and some amazing tips and knowledge in there as well! 🔥
Very true!
The dude playing the video game at time 6:55 in the background shows how chill a work environment this is. I love it. Keep up the great videos.
I love how the set comes to life, from the minor details. Im not even in films. I’m more surprised that they got vinyl background for the Tokyo.
Great work as ever. Love from finland, (former Bristolian).
Thank you!
I worked in a studio once where the guy in charge was super OTT about saving everything just in case. (I agree with what Tommy said about reuse and recycle where possible) but it got to the point where more space was being taken up by hap hazardly placed random pieces of timber and other set build supplies that stuff was falling on us, nobody could find anything and there was less and less room to shoot!
This is what I imagined these situations would turn into. Storing inventory properly is very costly, and with odds and ends from torn down sets, you might not find anything you're looking for.
It's a constant balancing act!
@@InCameraTV sometimes less balancing, more toppling...
I love the practical backgrounds instead of doing it in post! I'm going to try this with an A4 and my crappy little printer at home, haha!
Brilliant and great to see behind-the-scenes
Regarding re-use and recycle of your sets; great job and thank you. If you ever find yourselves exceeding your storage capacity, give me a yell as I'm a short way off in Bristol and can reclaim any lumber into usuable furniture and so further avoid waste.
An absolute pleasure to watch. I dread to think how much those lenses cost.
However if I was a betting man, they may be a bit more than the second-hand Siuri anamorphic lens I got this week.
All I need to do now is learn how to use it. 😂
I love all the educating on set lighting & how the production came together. The last "rant" though is the best part though. I've always hated how wasteful film sets can be. Love what you're doing with reusing assets. My biggest pet peeve is the bottled water on sets. At the end of the shoot there's tons of half full bottles of water all around.
Oh our bins in general are constantly overflowing, so much food waste and packaging!
Don't get me started on bottled water! Totally pointless in a studio environment. We had a filter water system installed to give people an alternative they couldn't refuse! (T)
@@InCameraTVthat's awesome! Unfortunately it's not convenient on a on location set. We try to bring enough water to get us through in reusable containers but haven't figured out a system for the rest of the crew. Plus in the USA people are very hung up on thinking bottled water is the only safe water.
this may be the best YT channel for filmmaking
I've only worked on two low budget features in the U.S. so far, but I was aghast at the level of wastefulness inherent in the way productions are run, primarily by the Hollywood/L.A. pro's. Not criticizing them on a personal level, it's just the method they were trained to work in, that expediency takes priority in making the studio's happy, i.e.time is money. I'm glad to hear you're pushing the value of recycling, and I think it has more validity than just as an environmental issue, it also will save the production a lot on budget not buying materials over that can easily be reclaimed without wasting a lot of time. Perhaps if future studio builds took into account this mindset, they could simply build on additional storage for props and materials, instead of outsourcing everything like they do now. A small change to their current infrastructure could end up proving very beneficial down the road.
Just want to say thank you for this piece. I am gingerly creeping up the ladder from Camera Op to DoP and this is the most useful and interesting video I have seen regarding Set Work. Also, I cant agree enough about re-using and recycling existing set flats and props. keep up the good work.
Once again, thank you.
No worries, great to hear our videos are helping people!
I am not entirely sure what is going on but I am having a lovely time
Keep watching, do not adjust your dial
@3:51 Cheap led bulbs might flicker, but then you have Astera Nyx and Aputure b7c that are flicker free. Nothing beats the color rendition from an Incandescent light bulb though.
Lovely work chaps. Super informative episode as always.
Was great filming with you Tom, Pete and Band crew. Thanks for the super pro setup!
Thanks guys, hope you liked how the episode turned out! Great working with you!
@@InCameraTV the episode is HOT
Thanks Paul! Always a pleasure (T)
That video was a perfect match with my morning coffee.
Great, hope you liked it (the video and the coffee)!
it's funny how Theatres, or most of the ones I've worked at, do keep flats and set pieces and rework them from time to time. granted things still get built but it was mostly rebuilds that I saw. I don't see why big studios can't do that.
Exactly! Space and equipment can be utilised so well with a small amount of effort!
Fantastic episode. Great behind the scenes info and spot-on highlighting the waste issues on set.
If these guys aren’t fully booked for the next 20 years for their studio space and/or film making skills then I don’t know what’s wrong with world!! 📽
Thanks Paul, Tommy has wanted to rant about it for a while haha!
This video and channel is fantastic and deserves more views!
Good job, everyone! :D
Found your channel a couple of months ago and totally enjoy it! I am not even remotely associated with film making, but your videos are incredibly informative, fascinating, and a lot of fun!! Look forward to seeing more!!
Excellent channel. I'm a full-time genny op here in America but find your channel interesting! Well put together,the comedy helps also...
Low budget productions would recycle sets back in the Golden era but there was a time limit before the tear down.
Very helpful stuff in here, as usual. Thanks!
No worries, happy you found the video helpful!
A very worthwhile rant - thankyou!
Love love love this episode.
Thanks man, glad you liked it!
I love those lighting breakdowns!
Nice, hope you learned something!
It was great to see the process and all those considerations. And a necessary message at the end. Thanks!
Thanks, glad you liked the video!
Very nice to see the process and all the tips & tricks. Thanks a lot for bringing us through this shoot.
I don't know if it's possible in the UK but here in Quebec (Canada), the school I went to received parts of sets that weren't used or wouldn't be re-used for shows. So we had many walls, accessories, floors and stuff. It was very nice to work with pieces of sets that had been on tv shows. :)
oh wow, that's really cool!
Another great video! You guys are firing on all cylinders! Keep em coming!
Thanks, it's really appreciated!
So many times set flats are just that-flat painted walls. They're perfectly suited for repainting for every need. Also being that they're flat means they can be easily stored. Save your flats! And donate any leftover building materials to organizations like Habitat for Humanity.
Spot on, some of the flats we've stored here have been used for multiple projects for us!
This is so awesome. Great video!
Thank you so much, Mark!
Love the lighting. Really gives off those 80s-era Ikea magazine dreamy vibes.
Thanks, glad you liked how it turned out!
Tommy's "hippy mentality" doesn't preclude him from using tungsten bulbs though.
Planet murderer!! 😆
Hah! It's true! Burning it all down, one diffed 5k at a time! They do drink the juice, but at least the studio is 100% supplied by renewable energy. (P)
@@InCameraTV Is tungsten still easy to obtain in this business? I see they are phasing out Quartz Halogen now as well.
Great video and rant!
Totally agree with you on reusing stuff. Awesome you and your team makes the effort. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!
Such a great video!
Thank you, glad you liked it!
I'm sharing this with my film class. This such an awesome channel and i'm glad you took some time to discuss the issues surrounding wastage in the film industry. Keep it up (:
Nice! Thank you so much, hopefully they find it very informative! Make sure to ask them all to Subscribe haha!
Yours and Katherine Cheong concepts are amazing.
thanks a lot for this insightfull video. i love to see more of this. beautifull light you created. and good moove to try not to waste stuff...
Thank you, glad you liked the video! Definitely more BTS videos of productions and Studio life to come!
@@InCameraTV that is phantastic news!!! i would even be interested to see how you guys handle when something didn't work out as imagined or (heaven beware) you do a screw up. i'm just now a bit into this subject, as i had to re-shoot yesterday some images for a tiny guerilla-project i'm working on because of a dumb mental error... keep on the fine work anyway
Amazing new episode guys! It's always a highlight of the week to see new content from you. And get my fix of merely being referred to as a "human"! 😂😂👌
Haha, well I'm glad we can bring you a small bit of joy! Glad you liked the video!
Very good points about waste and responsibility and thank you for doing your part! Ironically as a small stop mo studio , I reuse to SAVE money lol
Exactly, sets can get costly very quickly! Hope you liked the video!
Fabulous episode guys !!
Thanks Andrew! bit of a different one today!
My youtube says this comment was 14 hours ago when the video is 4 mins old?!?!
@@13otterboy57 Time Travel!!
😂
Our Tier 3 & 4 Patrons get 24 hour early access to our videos!
Take me to Tokyo
Love the content...always interesting!
Speaking of recycling...do you guys have available to you...and make use of prop house rentals?
We do yes! Always useful!
I just love the rant at the end. the part about how much goes to waste in our industry is very saddening indeed. some of us save what we can, but sadly often it only gets used a very few times at best. I have seen some nice modular set designs, but they don't work for every style of set. anyway, back to your videos.
When I saw this advertisement for the first time I thought to myself that they were obviously too lazy to change the location :-)
Continuing to enjoy these vids, thank you.
Regarding the 'flats', it looks like the reinforcements are 2 x 1", but what thickness MDF do you use. I know that thicker MDF is more rigid, but is also quite heavy, whereas thinner MDF is a lot lighter, but under a certain thichness will warp quite easily. Also, how do you hide the joints between 'flats'?
Hey guys, just a small weird RUclips issue. The fact that you have a red border that goes around all the thumbnails of your videos makes it really difficult to tell if I've seen a video or not (the red bar along the bottom shows how far into a video you are, all the way across when completed). I only now realized I've missed a bunch of videos because I couldn't tell by looking. Might be something to consider changing.
Thanks for the feedback 👍
How do you guys seam flats together?
Hey thanks for that ethical rant at the conclusion.
Reduce
Reuse
Recycle
exactly!
Instead of storing, and the time/money/energy/human power required, you can create a network where others can turn your trash into their treasure.
It's kind of funny, it's somehow cheaper to not reuse the same set over and over again. That kind of goes against everything I know about cheesy scfi b movies where every spaceship somehow has the same hallway, regardless of movie. Then again, cardboard is a different type of recyclable ;)
How does someone start getting into set design
I'm artsy
I mean you really could just use dimmable led bulbs
Refresh rates are the issue
I love this channel but hate the "hey humans" tagline. LOL
haha, we're not even sure where Tommy got it from! I'm afraid it's here to stay though 😉
is it normal that your studio is used for big companies or was this special and not normal?
We work with a wide range of clients in our Studio, a lot of the time they just need the space, but it just so happened that as Tommy was part of the crew on this shoot, they let us shoot a video for InCamera!
@@InCameraTV Oh cool thank you!
