I'm producing a commercial with a post-apocalyptic theme. I hear you also work in advertising? I was wondering if you would be interested in doing some of the CGI for this commercial, this clip is very much like what we had in mind and you could probably mostly transfer what's already there. It'd all be very straight forward, no big deal, but could be cool. I sent you a direct message, please reply....?
The author explained earlier in the comments that the flying ships are people escaping from what as you can see is an impending astroid strike. The structures out in the water are oil platforms. There is nothing alien about this video other than the technology used by the humans being possibly alien.
Just what I would be doing, same in hurricanes! Had a ron-jon shirt with the Space shuttle in the background that always felt post-apocalyptic. Cool video.
it was better about 2 days ago . now I can't even find the kickass version I fell in love with . Stop fucking with this video you are only making it SUCK
Is very interesting Japanese have criticized without looking at the description embarrassed · · Please do not expose the shame of Japan in a place like this There may be a mistake because English is not good.
This is some really spectacular stuff. I'm really curious as to what you used as a point of reference for the motion tracking, and how much matchmoving you had to do by hand.
@ShirubiaTheOtaku When I clicked on the link to watch this video I was hoping to see some REAL footage of people surfing during the apocalypse that happened recently on earth. Clearly I was disappointed to find this obviously staged video claiming to be something that it's not.
@worzies "claiming to be something that it's not" excuse me, but can you tell me where exactly says this is real? in fact the description makes it clear that this have been done using an iMac. Anyway you could have said "oh, this is not what I expected :/" instead of "FAKE!" I think it's a pretty stupid comment because we can't understand it if it's out of context that's all
@ShirubiaTheOtaku After initially reading the description I got my hopes up even more. My initial thoughts were "wow, how was he able to surf while using his desktop computer to film such incredible footage!?", but I then realized it wasn't real because the actual apocalypse was caused by Jesus shooting rainbow lasers out of his nipples while riding a flying, fire-breathing unicorn/silverback gorilla hybrid. It is a very good fake though, which is why I felt the need to expose the truth.
I think this is an excellent video that says something profound about human nature. I am certain that there are people who would do exactly the same thing as the world fell apart around them. Well done, I am very impressed and I thank you for posting it.
Legend! Reminds me about the Tyson talk with Colbert where he says that in 2031 somewhere only people will die from the comet - one being a surfer trying to catch that next big wave!
I think he should do another one with this soundtrack /watch?v=_1o_RCRJuhw that would be epic! Thumbs up if you agree! Amazing video, I never thought anyone would try this sort of thing with a GoPro, but I was wrong!
vraiment très étrange comme approche graphique... la dualité entre la "violence" des armes et l'aspect cool du surf... me laisse perplexe. Cela dit le résultat est plutôt joli ... .. .
@AbstractLucidity Before starting this I had none. I wanted to learn more about digital filming, formats, and editing and since I surfed, the GoPro seemed like a natural place to start. I figured after filming and editing a few vids I could move up to something like a Canon 7d, 5d, or the Nikon equivalent.
I got the idea for this after looking through all my footage and I've always been curious how effects artists match CG with filmed footage...
@AbstractLucidity So I decided to figure out what software I needed and do it. That's why it took me a year to do, because I was learning the software as I was doing it.
Professionally, I work as an Art Director in the Advertising industry, not film (but I seriously dig movies).
I double-checked the physics on the back of an envelope using a crayon and can confirm that I don't give a **** about whether the airships/spaceships/giant boogers would cause bigger waves or not.
Great work - love the atmospheric feel of the piece! *thumbs up*
So, I'm a Sound Designer who owns a small media company, and it doesn't need one damn bit of SFX. It is, in the vernacular, a "Music driven piece". All the guys that work for me as film makers and Sound Designers loved it.
It probably doesn't t hurt that almost all of us have paddled out.
