Well gang, long time lurker first time poster here, and I think I'm finally ready to make a thread! I've gotten some good feedback on thread creation from BYOB regulars PISS_BABY and CuteWiddleKitten, but please feel free to point it out if I mess something up - I'm probably a good bit older than the rest of you kids, so apologies if there's something I don't "get" right away!  So for the past few 3-4 years I've been directing/writing/starring in a semiweekly web comedy series on youtube. It consists of some pretty loosely related sketches, with only one or two recurring characters. Here are a few of my most well-received videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bZkp7q19f0 This was probably the hardest one to put together, luckily I got some help from my makeup lady aka my lady love Lucy! We relied pretty heavily on greenscreen effects for this one - believe it or not, every character in this video is me. And the reception I've got for this has been MINDBLOWING. Wow!! Wow. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTD5o9YY-rc This isn't going to be to everyone's tastes, but it does hold a soft spot in my heart. Basically the plot of the video is, infamous dictator Adolf Hitler says "Fight friend of the family" for 5 minutes. The most technically competent video? No, probably not. My personal favorite? Absolutely. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m30mG3JKzA8 2011 Christmas Special Thanks for watching, I'll post new episode in this thread if it survives! All comments appreciated.

ggadwa posted:Because they are all me! It makes some complicated shots, I have the script, a bunch of highlighters, and film it all in bulk and then cut it up. This newest episode is the first one where I actually dubbed the Reaper's line, earlier episodes it was hard to understand him because of the mask, which makes it a bit more complex. Uh,, if the characters are played by the same guy isn't it easier to get them in same shot? |

Imagine 100 people playing two roles, you couldn't have enough screen space for that many people.Imagine how much screen space you need for one single person playing both roles, way less than is allotted by the camera Gross Dude fucked around with this message at 06:33 on Jan 6, 2015 |

like lets say mike and bob are the same guy. if mike is in the shot, then so is bob. because mike = bob. in fact, getting them in the same shot is easy.just one shot. getting them in multiple shots would be hard, perhaps impossible i don't know. |

patrick stewart did a version of the tempest where he played all the characters. he was on stage the entire time and it was just him. I hope this clarifies things for you. |

when a marquee says "one woman show" it's one woman, but she's actually many characters, and all of them are on stage, at the same time, because they are her, you see |

Can you do the Matrix parts 2 and 3 next specifically why was trinity really hot in the first matrix movie but not as much in the sequels PS: good job op, I enjoyed your post. I feel like if you put your efforts towards posting instead of youtube you'd get big results |
