I'm from Rochester and am very familiar with RIT!! AND this vid was awesome. I couldn't set something like that up but admire those who can and not only set it up BUT with the tap of a toe let it all fall down WITH such synchronisity!!!
The thing I always wonder about these videos is why don't they show the whole video in one continuous shot? Thats proof that they didn't fake it and that they didn't make mistakes at certain parts. To cover up the mistakes they just show parts.
@jackhoff87 that's because it is virtually impossible, we're in a world where something must end. for a continuous shot, cgi must be involved. this still entertains that notion in an imaginative way. :)
@xmuzzledwolfx I disagree that computer graphics would need to be involved to do this in a single take. It just would have been jerky as I moved around with the camera (I didn't have a stabilizer after all). I could have done this in one take if the dominoes fell at a slower rate.
@jackhoff87 I didn't do it in a continuous take for a couple reasons. I don't like domino videos where you see the whole field at once and just watch the dominoes fall. It becomes boring. You know what's going to happen because you can already see it. This way, you watch the journey of the dominoes. I actually did test chasing the dominoes as they fell, but too much motion in the frame. It was just easier this way.
@jackhoff87 ...unless they were using several camera's...and, in which case, you'd need to splice those together...which means, it'll look cut. Someone would have to shoot from start to finish while holding the camera to do one continuous shot...which detracts from how cool it looks...which it does...run-on sentences, be damned! lol
@moviemaker1127 They are actually black dominoes glued together. Initially, I bought 2 boxes of black dominoes off eBay, but they were half the normal size, and so light that your breath would cause them to fall over. Unusable as dominoes but they worked for the staircases. There are no premade kits of dominoes attached to devices that make them easy to stand up and knock down.
Hey Jared, That was awesome! We watched it twice! Thank you for setting it up and for the video! Please email Doreen to let her know about how long it took to set up. Thank you so much.
YouTube has been having some little hiccups lately. It's happened with other videos as well. Everything seems to be back up and working fine now though.
Nope. That orange section was all done by Alexander Gartley, one of the two other guys who worked on the video. He just wanted to use a lot of dominoes so he did a bunch of zigzags and lines with them.
Totally amazing!! My co-worker and I watched it together and couldn't help but yell out with excitement every time an unexpected thing happened! What fun - it made my day!
If only this project was funded! :) It was basically a three-man project. I personally purchased all the dominoes myself, and all filming was done after hours with my own camera.
I'm an RIT alum as well as RIT staff, and I just wanted to do something cool and creative, as well as promote the festival.
