Possibly around 10-15 tapes as far as I know. And none of them have labels!

There would be no problem with explosions in space, they can and do happen. They look a little different only in the fact that they don't last very long, to make it look good have it just a small and very quick explosive flash and then dirt and debris flying off.

Melons are amazing, they are possibly the best thing for any gore effects. Blow one of those up on a dummy and it would look amazing! Cut a circular hole in the back (keep the cut out 'plug') where you want it to explode out, stick a blender inside the melon through the hole and mush up some of the ...

You're gonna have to look around online for a free DVD ripper, then you gotta use a program to compress the video file ( unless the DVD ripper does this for you ) and then upload it to something like video.google.com

The effect work done on this movie, is in some parts, far better than that done on the actual series/movies!

Bloody amazing movie! No idea about the soundtrack though, sorry...

I don't think we could use a retractable knife, because it has to be a special custom made knife. We figured that the styrofoam method was our only answer. Is it possible not to focus on the knife too much, then you could just make a card/wood replica and paint it in the same colors, you could easi...

Uh... don't -really- kick. You're not gonna make 'em fly without getting hurt. Get a propper harness and have one or two people pull him back hard as he jumps when you kick. You'll need matts for him to land on, a LOT of them.

Bloody amazing! By the time he screams at the end i could hardly breathe!

... i'd never think it was that dangerous over in the states! You could do a gun fight outside a police station here in the UK but they wouldnt do anything, even if they wanted to the officers arent usually armed with any lethal weapons o_O

No terribly hard shots came up yet... although the project we're starting in the easter holidays has a fight in a river ( waist/knee deep ) with up to 5 people in the same shot. So lots of water splashing about and we don't want all the shots to be from the banks so we'll have to grab a waterproof c...

Look around dA, theres a LOT of good 3D people!

wildstorm? have you got effects lab pro? also has anyone tried blender? Yes I have EffectsLab Pro. Check out Cantoloups 3D Tracking test. He used Blender and Icarus to seemlessly integrate a 3D object onto a moving live action footage http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4bWyjZF_zw Holy hell! I've done ...

*sticks a darth vader hat on aaronv2* Heeeeey it suits!

We accidentaly blew up a camcorder o_o

actually if someone stole my work and used it as their own i would think of them as the evil, evil man but whatever im not here to tell you what is right and what isnt just a suggestion. maybe start getting used to the idea that you need to make your own models and textures... Which is exactly what...

We've got one guy who gets killed in a river, knee deep water. To get the reactions right when he gets stabbed we're going to slow motion of the others realising, nothing like being able to hold pieces of onion against your actors eyes so they really do cry their eyes out =P We're also going to let ...

... poor little me with a megaphone is just about all i've got to work with!

I just bought a digital STILL camera. I noticed it took video (a fairly standard accessery these days). and can record 15 seconds of footage on the internal drive. I quickly dismissed this as practicly useless. Then i put in my sd card. My kid was having a tantram, so i thought i would record it an...
