thnxs mr kramer …u rock

guess wt?? i actualy 4gt to press the record button… thnx fr helpn me out….lol

thank you andrew you are the best!

Thanks for the answer. I thought it would be something like this setup. You’ve got a great result. Have you filmed it with the RED? The quality is amazing for a low-light shot.

Oh snap! that be my new wallpaper right there!

something that is bothering me is that the head should be locked off, and the suggesstion of the head moving should be done with the HUD or am I missing the point?

I like the visuals. I got on this am and thought nah, we just got a tute yesterday…..but nooooo….AK comes through with a little tidbit. Hope you and yours are well.

Thanks man keep the content coming!!

Awesome! That was exactly what i thaught after watching the tutorial! “How did he light the scene?”

Funny, I was really going to ask this yesterday… =P Thanks a lot

Sweet.. thanks alot!

Thanks for the info.
Now I know what I was doing wrong.
Those damn record buttons!

Thank you Andrew! My questions are gone

Thanks for the tip

VERY helpful! Thanks AK! I would be interested to hear more about your lighting techniques…did you learn mostly by doing or are you a fan of any tutorials?

The finished picture of Sam would make a nice background to freak somebody out with. Just kidding Sam, you’re a great guy for allowing Andrew to make fun of you. (Wish my brother would let me film him for tutorials)

Why so serious Sammy…

“Dont forget to press record” –

nice work

Thanks Andrew….and now I have a new Sam poster to hang on my wall….cool….

I like the lighting setup also because it creates those great-looking white spots in the center of Sam’s eyes. That alone gives the shot some depth and spark. It also makes him more “sinister-looking”. Great job.

thanx androw

Interesting setup, very simple too!

Very nice.
THanky

Nice quick-tip, Andrew. It’s so weird, I know somebody that looks eerily similar to Sam. I’ll have to see if I can get a picture of him to you so we can reunite these long lost brothers.

Thank You Andrew, thnx for everything!

What are the wattages and distances?

very nice picture, one picture talks for million words.

Damn it, I forgot to press record, haha, you rock, you are a genius AK!

hi Andrew…
which video camera are you using ?
and which camera should i buy for a low budget film based on scenes from 3ds max … and people on a green screen…

thanks…

Well Well Well

You never sleep, or what??

I can’t learn the last tuto yet, and now you give us an other one. Are you a RoboKramer or something like that.

Thank You, You Rules, and your crew too.

Alex

Thanx Man!
Keep up!

Forgive for bad knowledge of English language.

Omg.. sam as wallpaper! =)

Wow, man that’s cool, thank you for the great tutorials!

So what color was the background really?

Good tips.. Looking forward to see what results people come up with

Since you’re busting in these HUD’s you should go and see what you can do when it comes to batman, when he uses his Sonar (The dark knight). Also Great Tut man!

Thanks AK you rock

The hardest thing for me in shooting video is setting the light correct. Although I think there is no “the correct way” It just has to look good – just like the hud shoot.

Thanks VCP for explaining there secrets

I was wondering where is a good place i could buy good lights for something like this

Great quickie tip on lighting

Thanks for the Tut and for this bonus feature. Hope your weekend is fantastic!

Blessings!

sexiness Sam

Hey I was wondering if you would be able to show or explain how to create and how to apply a matte painting i have some sort of idea but still having trouble, i’m using AE CS3 and Photoshop CS2

I love to see lighting breakdowns. Great!

I love how you take the time to show us little things like this. That’s what really sets you apart from the others. Thanks AK!

Andrew… you deciphered something so complex into something so simple.

I nominate you for an Academy Award for best breakdown!

I also believe this may be my current favorite tutorial.

SWEET!!!

Andrew, can you help me with XL2 settings?
Trying to keep this from looking grainy, with that light source…
Thanks
Michael

THENKS MR.KRAMER IM YOUR BIG FAN

Thanks Andrew. About how far was the light away from Sam’s face?

I always forget to press record..

Always.

i don’t know if you ever got a message from Guyana South America. but just to let you know that your work is respected among the few of us who are involved in Video Production in Guyana …so keep up the good work…..i don’t know if you read these hundreds of comment but i hope you do …anyway you got my email so let me know

Lol…that is a cool wallpaper… hehe…

thx..Andrew,Sam, EVERYBODY!!!!

My God!! That was a scary photo!! I won’t be able to sleep tonight!!!

A quick tip. Use a hard ‘point’ light for the back light, and a soft fill light for the front one. This will give a better result.

thnx Ill use that

hey does anyone wanna tell me if these plug-in’s/presets work in cs4? i seem to be having trouble getting them to show up.. under presets. and such

Hey Mr. Kramer i thought it would be really cool for valentines day to have a special after effects thing where you show us how to like make it look like somebody’s heart is pounding out of their chest or maybe how to make their eyes turn into hearts?
its just an idea

may I know which hd camera do you used here? looks great

Thanks for the tip. This site has always been very helping filled with usefull information.

Cool man I love the lighting you did. You ever have the chance i finally got an hd cam with my lighting and your film magic pro presets. Look what i did. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ItmM9vvIU64

Like Predrag said, you are the best . I’ve got problems with expressions, but… i think i will learn that… :S
I hope i will learn lot of things on your website, and maybe one day i will work on movies like our (serbian )Predrag…

Best Regards !
