Well get over 100 posts and then beg marc (well thats hoe i did it :lol: ) There is nuthing "Rude" in there..just me and SVHS "trying" to be witty (and not succseding)

I'm just happy to see people that realalize that Christmas is about the incarnation of our
loving God, and not about a reindeer with a red nose...

Merry Christmas

Silly -- Xmas is a celebration of the consumer ethic and perhaps also inspired by a human desire to mark midwinter, this was the most important date in the Pagan calender and probably has much more to do with our annual orgy of consumption than Coca-Cola's father Xmas or some homeless couple with a baby , it really is a shame the whole thing has been hijacked by religous fundamentalists with a phobia about red nosed mammels, perhaps...

Here is a siily Xmas films I did. No keying as was done on a whim and had to make do with some dodgy masking.

Ooo, don't go there!

Truth be told, I'm the only witty one 'round here.

Came out very nice. I see the animals were quickly wisked away at the end for Xmas dinner.

What did you use for the blue screen? I'm waiting for my son to be of a "controlable age" so I can do fun skits with a blue screen (if that age every appears!).

I have a bunch of outdoor lights from home depot I bought cheaply and use them once in a while on the subject on a black velvet back drop I have., though they are not pure white. What type of lights did you use?

Welll the show went on tonight without a hitch. The Video was shown on a 7x10 screen, with a wood frame around it and hay in front of it. It worked perfect.

I used blue material from Walmart, and the lighting was 500W work lights on a tripod from Sears..
The lights were very harsh so I had to tone them down a bit. I used a program called ULTRA Key.

Now, I have to put the toys away and find a new job, I worked with 401(K) Retirement plans for 3 yrs and goy laied off this past week Great Christmas Gift. Well,
Thank You all for you kind words.

Glad your show went well, got any pics?
Sorry to hear you got laid off.

Hi,

I use visual communicator and I found that the most difficult part of chromakeying is the lighting. I had to buy two continuous lights and black the window out. I think ULTRA is the next step up. Really good fun and great for making videos for websites.

Bye
