Video Production! Knightmare Documentary!

We ain't too good for costumes, we did rent some but they cost a lot and weren't that good.

[Fidjit]

I didn't have any, I just dressed normally, but I did however have the helmet of justice, and I still do...

[Raven]

Its alright, we do not want ti to be a grand scale thing, just some fun we can show to other people. For costumes I was referring to the characters, for a ghost I can put a sheet over my head, that kind of thing.

[Fidjit]

So, they did that for Series 2 when the ghost killed team 2 all they did was change the opacity and movement...

[Raven]

I'm sure it will be mildly successful. This is the good part. For the helmet, we are going to use... a cardboard box.

The rooms are going to involve 2 parts of a back garden and small forest place and house for the eye shield. Maybe even the street. I did notice a problem Fidgit, you were see through on the clip.

[Fidjit]

I know the theresold and cut off was only rough... But hey no ones perfect...

[Raven]

Dunno what we will do for a wall monster. Probably arrange things to form a face on the wall. We are fliming on Saturday.

[Fidjit]

Good grief! Are you using any editing software?

[Raven]

Nope, we havent got any. We did do a pilot with special effects (things drawn on paint) but they flickered and we couldnt get them to look as though they behind the dungeoneer. What can you reccomend?

[Raven]

And by the way, how many people are involved in this, and how many teams are taking part.

[Fidjit]

Well there is staff pics on the Cartographer's website and it is just me questing...

[izunagi]

If you dont mind me asking,what sort of graphics engine you using for it fidgit?

[izunagi]

sorry cant spell

[Fidjit]

Don't worry about spelling dude

I am using the following software:

• ADOBE PREMIERE PRO (Video)

• ADOBE PHOTOSHOP (Graphics)

[izunagi]

Cool man thats nicely done,what sort of lighting effects can you get with photoshop?You see i do a bit of level designe and i always have gripes with lighting .Im looking for a better engine.

[Fidjit]

Well I'm just using spot lighting actually check out the "Pictures" section to view what I've done...

[Fidjit]

Casper? All I can recommend is for you to grab a Adobe Premiere Pro package and something that is blue/green and try there, otherwise I have no alternative I'm afraid...

[Raven]

ok, I know blue is the universally used colour, but why?

[Raven]

• how do you put the graphics onto the blue screen?

[Fidjit]

It's because in light there are three main colours:

• RED

• GREEN

• BLUE

Blue and Green screens are commonly used among filmers because of their Chroma Keying abilitites, as the body has no means of blue or green colour... Red screens can also be used but bear in mind that the colour of you skin will go too...
