Here’s a couple of pictures of me
Q: What the hell am I doing?
A: Aside from looking like a complete douche, I’m puppeteering some ghosts for a friend’s indy film.
I tore up some pieces of fabric, wrapped them around a foam ball, stuck a dowel thru the whole thing and swirled it around in a fish tank. No fluid sims, no fabric run-ups just good ole’ fashioned movie magic.
A buddy of mine who was on set and sent me this pics. After the horror subsided (the camera does add 20 lbs. ya know) I sent him a reply about how stupid I looked. I asked “WTF, am I doing?” he wrote back.
“At least you are doing “real” VFX old school style and honestly probably having a better time then if you were just sitting in front of a monitor”
Amen brother.
