New Tripod and updates

I just got a new tripod today! (from ebay)
Now I can use it to record my self in front of my two new green screens so expect many green-screen based effects to come!
I am currently done with a mirror one in which my reflection does something else...(Will upload after I get a title for it) :)
And I am starting to work on a rocket one where I shoot myself up into the sky! Lets see how that turns out ;)
Any more ideas would be much appririated.

Magical Finnaly Uploaded

Magical Is finally done uploading and available for anyone to watch!
Take a look

If you watch closely, the light changes when the coke is "gone" This was caused by some weird shadow when I was doing the effect.
Comments would be much appreciated.
Magical 2 may be coming soon...

Magical

OK so I finally got a name for my new magic video (and series) (NO THAT'S NOT THE TOP SECRET ONE) ;)
Magical!
I am already done with the video I'm just adding some extra stuff like sound effects.
I decided not to include the second one because It was so bad! (It got deleted and I had to re-do it with no patience)

Magical (1) Should be uploaded soon on my Youtube and Revver and I will post it here.

More magical videos will be coming soon so keep checking back ;)

PS: I tried to edit the site layout, but due to my crappy HTML skills and my newness in Blogger I was unable to :( Maybe someday I'll get it and edit it.

BTW: If you havent already, please subscribe to my Youtube and Revver Accounts

New Green Screen

I finally got my new green screen from ebay! I already had one, but It wasn't big enough. Now I can start doing lots of videos that involve a green screen:)
Some of the things I have in Mind:
A rocket video where I shoot up to the sky.
A new Series (TOP SECRET)
and Ill think of more.
If you have some ideas for me please contact me by either leaving a comment on this post or emailing me at (Replace [at] with @)

BTW: Ill will probably edit the site layout today :) Not to much but Ill add some stuff :D

OH NO!

Oh! No!
After more than an hour of working on the magic video....after Effects Crashed!
Luckily I had saved by work 30 minutes ago so I didn't loose all of the work, but I did loose more that half of it. I was already done when It crashed!
Right now I am reading the particles and completing the effects, then Ill but both videos together and upload them.
In my opinion: I don't think the video turned out like I wanted it too. It doesn't look like I though it wood. The effects sounded really easy, but when I actually started doing it, It look a long time and effort. There were also some problems with the shadow, so I had to add some particles to "fix" them.

BTW This will not happen again because I have change my auto save settings to once every 5 minutes!

PS: Ill be editing the blog layout either today or tomorrow as well as advertise the blog a bit to get more visitors ;).

Working on Magic video

Hey guys! I thought I would give you an update on my new video that is soon to come up!
The video is called
Magic!
^^ Its the only name I could come up with :/ So If you have a better Idea, Please TEll me!
Maybe something like "The best magic trick in the world" would work ;)
Ok so what I basically do is I take and show a coke bottle to the audience. I put a sweater over the bottle and when I lift off the sweater...BOOM the coke bottle is gone. This effect is looking pretty realistic right now, but I'm still going to make more shots of it to convince the audience :)
I might, If the video gets popular enough make it a series and do more of them.
Ill try to get it done soon, but I cant give any release dates. I want it to be really good.

New Outro

Here is the new outro I was working on.

I will use this outro until I make a new one.

Widget

As you can see, I have added a new widget in the side bar. It took me a while to get the script where it needs to go, but I got it to work :)
This widget will display all of my videos so you can easily see them. Please check it out and tell me if you find any bugs or problems.

PS. My new outro is done uploading and will be here very soon!
