Hey I found this link about Video Press, the new upgrade for Word Press. It looks pretty cool and if you are looking to upload your videos to you blog and don’t want to use YouTube then it;s a great option! Personally though I think uploading to YouTube is always a good idea because it allows you to access a larger community and bring more people to your blog.

I’d recommend you check it out though, it might be something you want to use as well ass YouTube.

Green Screen lighting tips

Adam — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 18:02:18 +0000

I found this video on YouTube where this guy talks about chroma keying and using a green screen. He talks about how to do it professionally and also amateur, or “Guerrilla” as he likes to call it. I found this video quite useful and it gave me some ideas on how to improve the lighting for my current green screen work.

Hope it’s useful to you! :3

Super Awesome text animation effect from Adobe After Effects Tutorial

Adam — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 20:42:35 +0000

Heeeey guys and girls!

I have been working on a project with my band and we recently put out some video blogs and I created the text intro for them and guess what!? I used the same techniques to create it as I did in the tutorials I made! So you can see them in action. I have added a few little effects to jazz it up and make it more unique but it’s pretty much the same thing as the tutorials.

Let me know what you think of it! Post up a comment here on on YouTube!
I’ll also be showing you how to added the extra effects to finish it off later, but it’s my Birthday tomorrow so probably not for a couple days

Detonation Films

I found this website while looking at a fireball tutorial. It’s full of awesome free stock footage and movie special effects that look so frikin cool! I found a muzzle flash tutorial, various fire effects and some blood splatter. I particularly liked the Kapawwe tutorial containing all you need to turn your toy shot gun into a real firing weapon! Some of the stock footage you have to pay for but there is a lot you can use for free which Is awesome and will get you set creating realistic action movie effects in no time!

I’m planing on trying out the fireball effect myself and will upload the results as soon as it’s done!

Here’s a trailer for one of their projects: Agent 12

I love to see low budget independent films that are awesome because they are full of…. awesome ^^
