Jokes, Old and new, Part 8, Clone Effect

[OoOalistairOoO]

Hi this is RedPeper342 again have you made any new videos

[Featureman]

Hi. Thanks. I make about one or two each week. If you click on the Featureman name in blue it is a link to my profile page. All my videos are available there. Thanks again.

[Veggieman87]

Is the voice-over on the commercial the host of What's My Line? And I love your jokes.

[Featureman]

Thanks. I don't think that is John Daly although it sounds a lot like him. The commercial had to have been made in 1941 for the 1942 Olds. They quit making cars in December of 1941. John Daly does not show up at imdb until 1948. His hosting of What's My Line began in 1950. He might have been too young for that although he would have been about 27 at the time.

[RedPeper342]

That was really good you sould make more videos

[Featureman]

Thanks. I will be making more when the weather gets warmer. I slow down in the cold weather.

[knuckleblaster]

i started crackin up when you were only twice as old as her you almost got there lol

[Featureman]

Thanks. I love the old jokes. That one is from an Abbott and Costello routine from the 1940s.

[BigLon]

Heh, heh,

tough audience there Featureman.

[Featureman]

Yeah, BigLon. I'm gonna have to find some drunks in an alley and I'll get a big response.

The Joke with the girl next door is so great!

i have to send it all my freinds! thanx for the video

[Featureman]

Thanks.

[spidergap]

truly awsome, geat jokes with great clone effect

[Featureman]

Thank you very much.

[iceman3498]

Very good as usual. I have to admit, I sometimes use your jokes at work for laughs, haha. Nice clone effect too, looked flawless. I just finally got a green screen to start messing with.

[Featureman]

Thanks. There are only a couple of the jokes that are mine. Groucho and Abbott and Costello did some of those in the 1930s. The cloning is done without a green screen. Green screen is a lot of fun to play with too.

[UGKisback]

this is rly good!!!

[Featureman]

Thanks, TK. The clone effect is actually pretty easy. The hard part is synching everything. That's why I used the closeups of my face to adjust the two videos so they would look like they were in synch.

[UGKisback]

ya. cloning is not easy to sync because you have to actually say everything in perfect time without hearing the other person...

I was lucky in my "dude" video (the trampoline part) when i used the clone effect

[Featureman]

Hi. You have some good videos with good effects. I will probably do another song video with cloning for a Christmas song. I will use a second video camera playing back the first recording while I listen to it at a low volume. That way I won't need earphones. It will look something like the Frankie and Johnnie video.

[vera2005rj]

Excellent!

[Featureman]

Thanks.

[redsox42311]

what program do you use?

[Featureman]

I use Magix Movie Edit Pro 12.

[Featureman]

Thanks, Joe. I think the old jokes could be new again. I left out one of the W C Fields lines I was gonna use. Maybe next time.

[nogotta9]

1942? That'll do. And the jokes will too. Toodal do.

[Featureman]

1942 was a great year for collectible cars. Only a few were built. The jokes were plentiful in the early 1940s. Thanks.

[ronnieboy2rdot]

Real Good, Tom. You sure talented.

[Featureman]

Thanks, Ronnie.

[Nitrobezene]

Mixing it up a bit! I like your stuff. I also like the old jokes you bring back from Abbott and Costello and the Marx Bros. It's hard finding people my age that know who all these comedians are! Shame.

[Featureman]

A&C and The Marx brothers were so funny. I think most young people today would like their material if it were done in a big film with color maybe by Jim Carrey or someone.

[FrankyBabes]

Very slick. Very very slick. Very very very slick.

(etc etc)

[Featureman]

Thanks. I notice that if I do the video at night indoors the lighting will be the same for both sides. The vertical line in the background is where one wall meets another.

[rpbraziliansinger]

Tom, you're awesome!!

Great video!! :)

[Featureman]

Thank you, Rafael. Your videos are awesome and I encourage everyone to visit your channel.

[ElevenColors]

Nice inclusion of the table in the clone effect. I must try something similar one of these days.

Oh, the Library of Congress provides video? I did not know that.

[matthewlombartmusic]

A really well put together video, Tom - great work.

Thank you for brightening up YouTube with your personality.

Have a great day & God bless you :)

[Featureman]

Thanks, Matthew. It is always fun to do the videos.

[TheDB99]

very nice!

did you buy a new camera ? the quality is awesome

[Featureman]

Hi, Alex. No, nothing is new except I now render it down to mpeg before I upload it. I use a 720 X 480 resolution. This 5 minute video was 225 MB. It took so long to upload I just took a nap.

[featherdude]

Funny age thing. Love the old olds. Wonder what it cost new then & today's value in like-new condition. Pretty good profit I bet.

[Featureman]

Hi. Thanks. The 1942 models of any car were especially rare because they quit making cars in 1941. The value of an Olds from that year in restored condition would probably be more than $50K I would imagine.

[petrieds10]

Did you see the seat belts in the car? Wow, they were safe back then.

I remember that Math joke from a few years ago. I saw it in a movie. I'm glad you refreshed the joke in my mind. Thanks.

[Featureman]

Thanks. The math joke is one of Abbott and Costello's old routines. Most people know their "Who's on first?" bit but this one got lost. They had a few others.

[thomasp29]

Thanks Tom and Tom. It's obvious you all didn't waste your time around the cracker barrel down to the local store.

[Featureman]

Thanks. I remember the old jokes but I have trouble remembering new things.

[RandomShadowMan]

What do you edit and film with? Your stuff looks amazing man.

[Featureman]

Thanks. I use Magix Edit Pro 12 which cost about $25. It probably is not available now. There is a version 14 which probably does the same thing but costs a little more. I render it down to mpg 720 X 480 which makes this 5 minute file about 225MB which is big. It took about 2 and a half hours to upload.

[RandomShadowMan]

That sucks that it took 2 and a half hours to upload. I edit my stuff with Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 and export it to uncompressed avi and it came out to around 90MB for 25 seconds and I encoded it to XviD in VirtualDub and it came out to be around 4MB. Plus, the quality still looks great on the 4MB file. One of my 5 minute videos is around 40MB.

[Bosephis1234]

I'd rather dance with the cows until she comes home lol

[Featureman]

Thanks. That was one of Groucho's from the 1930s.
