You guys are awesome !!! I am actually writing a script for a horror movie I plan to make. Any ideas on how to simulate a massive fire ? I have a scene where a church is being burned while two people are trapped inside.... Having issues trying to figure out how to pull it off. Let me know what you think.
If you need an actor temporararily consumed by flames. Make a medium fireball behind him and put a very small one right in front of the camera. The illusion simulates that sort of thing.
Hello Indymogul! Two of my friends and myself are creating a small independent film group, and we could use some of your wisdom. We may possibly make a film that involves android robots, fighting, high-tech weapons, etc, and we were working on costumes. Here are a couple of images (some of them computer rendered) of the character. I made a helmet for the head, but I don't know of anything that I could use for a clear, see-through, dome-shaped cover for the helmet. The wearer would have to be able to see out of it, and I'll add RGB LED's later. Any ideas? I'm planning on going off of your "Halo Master Chief Armor" episode with the Bondo and fiberglass, and I might use Pepakura for the cutouts. Any advice would be appreciated.
