Sin City Opening Scene Green Screen

[Megadoomable]

Sin city?????? Wow, the people who live there must be criminal sinners......

[zeromant80]

Can i find this 'Green-screen edition' on the bluray edition?

[ToasterShow]

cool i download this to make own stuff with them because i need 2000$ for my camera and i hav only 600$ xD

[ablasttv]

@ToasterShow just buy a Canon T2i, theyre great for video and just around your price range.

[TheSektorz]

I'm also curious about this. There's dark shadows, if you key that out, it would also remove his costume or at least her shoes, which are just as dark. Masking all that would take a long time. Why didn't they simply use a larger green floor and better lighting? Curious.

[xposhr]

@TheSektorz shadows dont really matter if you know how to change the levels to make the green pop. then key it and use that as the mask for the other

[luno44]

I'm baffled by this. There's shadows and it looks like different shades of green. Shouldn't this NOT work?

[drcyclps]

@luno44 In most situations you are going to be using multiple keys anyway, so you can have a keyer keying the lighter green color, and another keyer keying the darker green color.

[NewAgeDirector]

Great video keep up the good work.

[maniccunt95]

gay.



[raxotube]

@BXmammal actually, the jessica alba bar scene was one of the few that was shot in an actual set with props and all, but I agree with you all those scenes with unreal backgrounds are pretty amazing

[UrielMatahelumual]

blaster2k go the footage from the blue ray version.

[nosajj12345]

What is really amazing is how simple things still are despite all the advances in movie making i.e. CGI etc. They still use green screen. Green screen (chroma key) goes back half a century.

[DrewNZ]

Its funny how people always comment when seeing cam original material like this, how amazing animators and vfx people are and i agree. But whats more interesting to me is that actors are able to give great performances on a green screen set as if they are in the world created after. very cool.

[hiddenlab]

what is that roller thing that gives it the 360 look called?

[DrewNZ]

@hiddenlab A Dolly 

[iseecheese]

ok so who know who this shooter is in the story? and whY

[jonathanbombar]

que buena pelicula!!!

[ThaMovieManiac]

Josh Hartnett looks like a young Tommy Lee Jones!

[xxxrandomjamezxxx]

yo wicked video i have some new stchuff on my channel soon so subscribe to be up to date :)

[BXMammal]

I'm curious as to how do they get such detailed looking backrounds after shooting first in green screen? I was amazed at the before and After of the Jessica Alba bar scene. How did they make that bar scene after shooting her in green screen.

[kathejuisa]

No way out man Asian women #lushfmlk.info#

[Sature1985]

i wonder why they still need human actors

[Hospitaller]

Wow, talk about thinking sideways. Turning the ACTORS instead of the camera. No dolly tracks to build, no worrying about the lights changing...

[nightjj]

Ayyaha, Chroma keey ohmygod Croma Kee-eeey

[robertrunc]

nice channel and cool videos ....check mine too :)

[zhatdude]

I've been working on green screen for a little now, but can someone please explain to me what were the purposes of the red markers in the second scene with them lying down?

Thanks

[kamakazi423]

@zhatdude they are track points for motion tracking the scene

[zhatdude]

@kamakazi423 Thank you! I have started to assume that. So, they are not visible after editing? how do the get rid of the markers when editing the video?

Ok, thanks again!

[iceslice99]

@zhatdude there tracking points

[hmaseret]

@zhatdude hi, it is for 3d trackin with a program like pftrack

[evilsenemy123]

#wow thats really cool

[oasjdfo1234]

boggles my mind!

[lfernandovo]

avaliem e de opinioes...

[JonKiller98]

#LOL

[NotStoopid0228]

Green Screen 101, if you can't move the camera, move the actor.

Nice vid : )

[IBMua]

Wow! =) Cool!

[Maski03]

That bass line is killer

[2favoured]

LOLOLOLOL

[alterityproductions]

great opening scene. Love the movie. It's great to see how it's done. I just posted a sin cityesque film noir that we shot entirely in front of a green screen.... first time really using one. I'd love some feedback and comments on it. It's called Shadow of Lies. Let me know what you think.

[lighteelco]

Pretty fucking lame to be an actor right now. :D

[cpo2u]

Did anyone notice how she pooped herself just as she died?

[sartanko]

BATT SHIII ISS DAAAJIIING

[tbonepearson]

Pretty cool, I'll have to try that on my series.

[DanFrederiksen]

interesting. what software do they use for the chroma key?

[TonyFontana101]

Magix video

[otyroo2]

most movies use avid.

[ion12211221]

amazing

[JensGibolde]

haha, id didnt expect they would turn the "table" they are sitting on...

[tanman2468]

ya i know! But how else would they get that spinning look? Camera's can't see behind ppl :P

[bpEntertainment]

@tanman2468 never heard of motion controlled cameras? (the ones on cranes)

[tanman2468]

@bpEntertainment sorry if my old comment was unclear but i was being slightly sarcastic but i knew about the cameras. :O

[dmr778810]

@JensGibolde i was suspicish about the 2 poles so i thought they would

[astraton]

Great job, love this way of filmmaking. One location.

Check out Killdroid Attack for a cool Green screen action scene using After Effects, Lightwave and Effects Labs muzzle flash

[Cockleduster]

Because this film is so heavily CGI-ed, and in B+W, I find it fasinating to see the actors perform without any sets being there.

[K1ll3rWidg3t]

where are you getting all these green screen vids to edit from?

5* btw :)

[blaster2k]

Hello. First i got it for a secret source. But later I see that they have released a special edition of cin city on dvd with the green screen edition of the movie on a bonus disc.

[tosb38]

the dvd.

[Alexjoeman]

that is awesome

[candlemat22]

How do they make certain colors show only?

[aCidShred]

After effects, you can do it your self in video editing software.

[jongisk8]

after effects or in final cut

[deadman1x2]

rotoscoping is one way

[BriarLakeTrustNoOne]

they take the clip and copy it for how many colors they want to show, they then make the base one black and white and color correct the other layers of the same clip to only allow the colors you want to show... If you want cheap software to do it try final cut express, theres plenty of tutorials.

[killwa3000]

there is a shot before this one where she is standing and he comming from behind

where is it ? :D

[nmyster]

Nice!

[quandrax]

They make it look so easy.

[dalekfilms]

Plus one.

[captainestivi]

nah the movie was awesome all for the exception of josh hartnet i think thats his name the kid at the begining

[Gloryroad211]

i wish i had a good green screen....

[Liamwitz]

Mmmmmm... Cardboard

[Hollybongo]

'effin' 'A' !

[IzzySlypig666]

cool

[JANUTHEBEST]

thanks for uploading

[SENORxSNEAKY]

i'll cash her check in the morning....

[rlslbt]

it would be better if you show the "after", because I don't remember this. Isn't sin city where everything is black and white accept for red?

[kryptonkilla99]

this is the scene at the very beginning of the movie. Yeah, its got a film noir feel to it, and they use certain colors every now and then to draw attention to what they are trying to show.

[aleksanderhagane]

haha looks so stupid..

[AWalkInMyShoes]

I love this intro..I just started learning AE

Learn how to make a Sin City inspired effect on my channel

[kickdoeent]

WHAT EDITING SOFTWARE IS THAT?

[scojoetm]

most films are made with gr een screen now

[gt1515gt]

why?

Shut up

[Wallsorym]

WOW thats awesome

[justonelife1]

whats the name of that rig there sitting on does any one know

[Badg0r]

Aaahaaa!! Know I know how they do it :D I always wondered how they used a green screen a camera and matchmoving at the same time.

[Phonxer]

Where I Can Download This Footage Or Opening??

[AlmightyAzul23]

Now I don't understand...what's the carboard brown stuff for? Wouldn't that be in the shot cuz u only key the green?

[alexovie]

The cardboard is so that they don't wrinkle the green screen when they move the dolly and when the actors/production crew walk around the set. Then they just use a garbage mask around the actors so when it comes time to key out the green, there is no cardboard cause of the mask.

[MattTrevithickMovies]

No, they just need what they are using. Just as long as the actors are on the green, they can easily cut it.

[Lollypops407]

its so simple yet so complicated i have so much respect for crew involved in film

[Russoft]

where does all this greenscreen footage come from??

[liveandend]

keylight

[brushstrokesrock]

Genius! :)

[mrshock13]

Seeing stuff like this gives me so much more respect for the directors, animators, effects artists, actors, etc. To be able to visualize the scenery you want and have everything work beforehand is amazing in my opinion. Yes, everything is storyboarded to the most minute detail, but it's still amazing.

[TheKjex]

@mrshock13 and then ppl who act in movie are so popular, but noone shouts :"LOOK, there is the guy that worked on Shrek animation, or made the world in Avatar :) not fair

[acestu]

Microsoft Paint It's Amazing

[Zisaar]

wich software were they using?

[ALNUDN]

windows movie maker. dont you see that? all the pro's use that

[Zisaar]

thats was funny..... NOT

[guitarraelectrica]

Huh... You can't use WMM to make that chroma key tricks. And, in a professional movie like this, nobody uses WMM for the editing and the digital FX. They use professional programmes.

[Zybergod]

Good Lord that's horrible green screen. The lighting on the actors is fine for the scene, but that is a green screen nightmare..

[WreckZ28]

I'd watch how you talk about the pros.  You kinda sound like an idiot.

[Zybergod]

You're telling me that you'd be able to pull a clean key off of that? I have nothing but respect for the creators of Sin City but from a post perspective the shot of the actors on the ground is a difficult piece of footage to work with.

[JayMalone]

thanks for the insight bro.

but obviously their setup worked flawlessly.

keep your day job.

[Maximilaan1995]

yh maby but have you wathed this without the green screen it the film cos if you have then you cant say that it is bad green screen cos it looks amazing

[Zybergod]

Learn to spell. Your comment is not even recognizable. Cos? Seriously?

[woodlauncher]

You English is very bad, it takes some time for me to read even though im very good at English. You should not get into a wordfight with someone who knows English cuz its just annoying..

[iets1243]

You English? Lol that is a great comment to make your statement (PS im Dutch, go easy on me plz =P)

[woodlauncher]

I'm an arrogant Sweden :)

[woodlauncher]

What i meant to say was that I'm an arrogant Swede not Sweden xD

[MarketHacker]

Jag mää :DDD

[Phonxer]

so?

[woodlauncher]

Nice? Yeah plox!! -.-

[BBQGrillmaster]

excellent example of how to properly light your subjects to match composited material. The biggest mistake I see with green screen work (amateur and pro) is an improperly lit subject. Well, that and bad acting.

[bcsirke]

interesting:)

[EverlastingFilms]

they probably masked around them because they werent moving much at all

[billgale16]

It is sick

[rlmotorcycles]

how did they get away with all those shadows?

[MozTS]

money

[rlmotorcycles]

sounds pretty cool to say the word money as a cure for the problem, but it doesn't explain, i think they just chroma keyed several different shades of green and then turned up the simularities

[guitarraelectrica]

Light tricks. When you put many lights in different places of the setting, all of them pointing to the actor, the shadow of this actor disappears.

[YoshiPower65]

wtf?!?

[kokakola666]

iv'e been screw'd! :p

[photomusti]

WOW

[thegunslinger3k]

Fuckin' Wicked. The special edition lets you watch the entire movie with the original un-keyed footage. Can't wait for Sin City 2!!!!! It's comin' soon!!!

[mestari22]

when it's coming?

[KeepOffTheLawn]

wait what?

[Looserkid13]

a year ago...

[maggieman]

oh i got to see that

[johnny654949]

aw is that only in the U.S version? that fetures not on my special edition:(

sounds cool tho

[MarvelNut]

There's a special 2-disc edition in the U.S. where the entire movie is shown, sped up, in it's unaltered state. I think this guy just slowed down some of the footage from that and spliced in audio from the movie.

[WreckZ28]

you can't take a version that's sped up and slow it down and achieve 24 fps like you're seeing. This is an original version without it altered.

[TeamCarbos]

Its on the european version too.

[caiocproject]

cool!

[ManNotFoundDog]

That's pretty cool.

[MokneeAlbaNinja]

Strange...

[merrickx]

Lol, that's cool... they don't even whip the camera around, they just move the actors.

[nba185]

any link that shows the final edited version?

[viceoffire]

yeah watch the movie

[nba185]

lol... i think it is rated m18 or r21

[viceoffire]

oh okay, i live in australia and its ma15+. and here is a edited version of the opening scene: w w w (.) youtube (.) com / watch?v=I-zzh3pdJVQ

[nba185]
