Boston Legal Spoof: "Emerson College"

[EzraHorne]

This has always been one of my favorite videos, Jon.

[JPizzle1122]

@EzraHorne - It's so epic, I've always been proud of it. Fun fact: This project was actually just an excuse to force myself to learn how to use key-frames.

I guess I passed?

[DennyFUCKINGCrane]

Well done, guys! David E. Kelley ought to be proud! :-)

[Montera15]

I would like to see that.

Too bad you DON'T have any FUCKING VIDEOS!

[pumamama9]

Excellent spoof! Well done.

Are you all law students? Vid skills come in handy for trial...

Bravo!

[JPizzle1122]

No, we're all film/tv students. Vid skills come in *extremely* handy for that.

[SimbiAni1]

Browsing random BL vids - very good work! I always thought that their opening theme's editing was quite snazzy ;P Nice to see someone managed to recreate it so cleverly, hehe!

[GeraldatLarge]

Well done.

[gmanterps81]

this was really well done. i often joke that my friends and i should make our own spoof to this

[TheOSheaReport]

That is awesome guys! Well done!  Laughed out loud!

[xraygogs]

damn I have been wanting to do something like this... I didn't think someone would actually go to the trouble of doing it

[evil221884]

when does this show come out?? will it be on nbc?

[JPizzle1122]

LOL.

I hope you're joking.

[Wishmastercr555]

funny as hell

[bluemontstudio]

Gr8 job. That must have taken a while.

[JPizzle1122]

About 6-10 hours, but I was learning/teaching myself as I went.

I could do it again in about half that time.

[tfokillzone]

Nice job!

[kimmmikins]

hey that was really well done, good job! i can appreciate how long it took you to make as well - have totally been there :)

[ThePricanBouncer]

This was Great! Good Job!!!

[Paulmanorbier]

That was Grand! You're very clever

[lewitmi]

Fantastic emulation of the Boston Legal theme sequence!

How long did it take?

[JPizzle1122]

To edit? About 10 hours - although I was learning/teaching myself more about key framing. And about an hour was spent just looking for the correct fonts. And also, I had to shoot some the exterior shots.

If I were to do it again, knowing what I do - I could probably do it in half that time.

[Firebringer1]

Really really nice. Congrats :)

[jonathandiaz8]

Good effects, really nice.

Which software did you use?

[JPizzle1122]

Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0, as it mentions in the description...

Don't let anyone tell you Final Cut is any better.

[mattjblythe01]

wtf. it isnt that amazing... its barely decent.

[JPizzle1122]

I suppose you can do better?

By all means - I'd love for you to prove me wrong.

Probably don't even know what a fucking keyframe is.

[mrpotato531]

wow! how did you make this??

[JPizzle1122]

With a lot of hard work, years of editing talent, a high-quality copy of BL, and Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0.

[silvertoao]

great

[goldeneye00756]

Oh that was EXCELLENT. I laughed a lot. Great job.

[oftenlucid]

Bow bow! bababababa ba bow . .

[DarthJebus05]

Best fan-made opening. Ever.

[wzjolie]

wow you guyz did a really great job!!

[JPizzle1122]

Why thank you!

[EzraHorne]

I'm dead serious, this gets more amazing the more I watch it... everytime.

[LaTromboniste]

That was actually quite good. Kudos. :)

[JPizzle1122]

Thanks!

[pink17nikkie]

very cute

[elrivalmasdebil]

haha

that was very well done.

i liked it , i want to make the same, which software did you use to make the movie}?

[JPizzle1122]

Like all of my work, this was edited on Adobe Premiere Pro, version 2.0 for this particular object. This week I upgraded to the CS3 suite, so all my future projects will be done using that, and maybe some After Effects work. But this one was all Premiere - don't let anyone tell you Final Cut is better!

[elrivalmasdebil]

THANKS

[v4nrg]

haha

that was very well done.

i liked it

[webgirldana]

[JPizzle1122]

-JbL

[EzraHorne]

This gets better every time I watch it.

[evandolah]

Very funny! Great work! You've come a long way since SHS! Keep up the good work.

I too took classes at Emerson back when I was in high school (the summer "Youtheatre" program). What a great place to go to school. I hope you love it.

[crateriko]

haha... very cool!

[mrpotato531]

that's freakin hillarious!!! loved it!

[JPizzle1122]

Awesome, glad to hear you enjoyed it!

[jlspeck]

Nice job, guys. That was creative.

[tvpirate05]

lol well-done

[bubba11793]

Woah! What editing program did you use? So close to the real thing mate.

[JPizzle1122]

Thanks for noticing the hard word. And, from the video description above:

For those wondering, the video was edited using Premiere Pro 2.0 and its title maker, plus a shit load of key-frames. It was an ambitious project to help me learn how to do more stuff like that.

[airwalk331]

Classic!
