I really hope you guys hit it big. You know there's a problem with the world when Stephani Meyers (I think that's right) can make millions off of the damn Twilight movies and you guys are stuck with YouTube. Keep up the great work!
@Johanop The truth is that pretty much the only sound recorded during the filming process that will make it into the final cut is dialogue. Everything else- footsteps, gunshots, clothe-rubbing, scrapes, punches- all added from stock sounds or new clean-recordings in post-production.
I just got done making a short film myself, and because it didn't have any dialogue there were no sounds recorded during filming that made it into the final movie. 2/3s of Post-Production is spent on sound, I find.
@Johanop I can't say what they did but usually they take out the audio and replace it with background music and various sound effects (Etc. walking, voice overs, shooting). Look at the Sound Design/Editing video for Prism. Rob rocks!
make a second prism :) please it was really good i wanna see if that one guy gets the weird teleporty thingy back thumbs this up so they c an see it doo it now!!!
Awesome movie but i think you should have made some "story" scenes a little longer because it was hard to follow sometimes. The one on the rooftop at the start or maybe at the end for example. Sorry for my shitty english I'm from Germany ;)
@BasedProducts Because the actors most likely have lavaliere mics (clipped into their clothes), which only pick up sound from the closest source, and only in one direction. So, if the mic is only facing the actors mouth, then it would only pick up their voice. It might pick up some of the directors as well, but its so low in the mix, when the other effects and voices come in, its easy to take out. That and in parts with no talking, they just don't use the mic audio
@Sw3nn 90 minutes is plenty of time to tell a story like this. Less of a budget. Longer run time and you may loose some viewers as well. I definitely agree they should write the script and get it made. Freddiew got funds on kickstarter I invested in his project.
could you do a video going into more detail about the nerf gun paint jobs? *thumbs up this comment nto because im a thumbs up whore, but because i actually want to have a chance of them seeing my comment* Please
hey everyone we make action movies and we really need your guys help to get up there any comments are greatly appreciated along with subs friend invites and messages you guys have no idea how much it means to us
Hey. I want to get better in After Effects, but I'm having some trouble being able to create my own ideas. I am able to follow tutorials from video copilot and etc. but when I want to create something specific I see in my head, Ihave no clue how to do it, with all the advanced tools and how to combine them :-( Do you guys know about any tutorials or something that can help you through this step? How did you guys and people like andrew cramer get so good in AE to put their ideas on the screen?
@eikeflisa It sounds like you want to know the basics so you can make more. VideoCopilot has basic training under the tutorial area and is easy to do. If you haven't tried it I would.
Um I was just wondering why you guys yell when your shooting at someone. I usually just shake the rifle and they know when I'm shooting. And if the actor yells "SHOOTING" you will see his/her lips move.
@Indy2Cool the ENTIRE first part of the making of was dedicated to sound editing!!!! how can you not get it? how thick in the head do you have to be not to have picked up on that?!?!?!
@Toemta Actually the ENTIRE first half was about the production and how much it cost. Besides, that has nothing to do with on set sounds. I'm talking about them moving their mouths on set while you are talking about them organizing their audio in order during editing. Were you referring to The making of Prism- Sound Design or Prism- the Making of. Either way, It has nothing to do with that and is a completely different question... Jees :\
@Toemta Wow. Um ok. Do you realize were being as unclear as possible as far as that goes. You said you were talking about Prism the making of so I assumed you were talking about MAKING OF: Prism. And again, how does going "Pew, Pew" with a toy gun have anything to do with post production editing? ._.
@Indy2Cool you're either really stupid, or I'm COMPLETELY missunderstanding you. What I mean is that while shooting the director (or person holding camera) yells "firing!" "fall down!" "turn!" and so on to people performing the action. This is done to get the timing right. then, in post, you remove ALL audio and replace it with foley (google it) and sound effects. Simple.
@Toemta Ahh. I thought the actors said "shooting". I still think it is better to keep the sound of the environment in though. By the way, Im not stupid... I wasn't sure what sure what you were talking about.

@BasedProducts Because the actors most likely have lavaliere mics (clipped into their clothes), which only pick up sound from the closest source, and only in one direction.

It might pick up some of the directors as well, but its so low in the mix, when the other effects and voices come in, its easy to take out. That and in parts with no talking, they just don't use the mic audio
