In this very SPECIAL One Day Build, a collaboration with @CorridorCrew, Adam replicates one of his favorite practical effects: the bloody knife-attack scene from the 1974 film Chinatown. Adam times his entire process, from build through actual filming, while Corridor takes on the same scene, using visual effects instead. Which scene recreation do you think took longer and/or looks better? Be sure to watch Corridor's version of this build, and please let us know which scene we should take on for the next Practical vs. FX Challenge!

@mrwigley9883 Год назад

I always wondered how they got that shot and your attempt is awesome and answers so many questions but, I have one question for you Adam. I kept wondering why you didn't attach the hose directly to the spring so the blood would shoot through it instead of installing it to the side? Did you think of it and decided it wouldn't give the affect you wanted or something else? It seems as if it would have been such a clean installation, and would atomize the spurt at the end through the spring when it bent adding another affect to the blood spurt? Also, can you super heat the hose and stretch it out like you can do with acrylic or glass to get a fine tip?

@eninkam Год назад

How about the Alien Chestburster scene for an effect, its a lot of work I imagine but pretty iconic and I think presents some unique challenges The parting of the waves from the 10 commandments could be interesting to re-do in this day and age too. The head bursting scene from scanners could be cool I'd like to see something from Mary Poppins or the wizard of oz too but I can't think of which scene would lend its self well to this but I'm sure there are many.

@Leo2000___ Год назад

Although I love corridor's VFX which they do amazingly well, you just cannot replicate the authenticity of practical effects. The reaction was in real time vs the VFX scene preparation, you have that slight delay in reaction. If you have to count in real film shots, you can imagine the amount of takes you have to do for such a scene to get it perfect for post/VFX editing.

@davidwilliams5497 Год назад

Here’s an idea for another Digital vs Practical FX: spaceship explosion. Adam builds a small ship from scratch with styrene and kitbashing, and then they set off a small slo-mo pyro charge explosion of the model as the actual “film shoot”. The CC guys have to make a small ship from scratch and do the explosion digitally.

@DigitalGus75 Год назад

Yeah, this one… it has all the elements - model building first, then an effects shot - for both digital and practical. But they need to start with a storyboard…

@christianwilson5287 Год назад

Would love to see this one!!!

@SampoPaalanen Год назад

Well issue here is that there's few things that scale poorly explosions being one of those things, so if we'd want to give the practical effect a fair shake the model would have to be really big or the actual ship being tiny (as in too small to fit a person inside it tiny), otherwise the CGI will look better every single time due the explosions looking too small. A good practical effect is like a magical trick you know it's fake but you can't say exactly how they did it easily (unless you got a background in practical effects as then you know the tricks), but that means working with the limits of the craft and that means knowing for example what size can you make something for it to look good on camera (it might not look on set but what the camera sees and what the human eye sees are different) and still be cheap enough to be practical.

@anonymousaccordionist3326 Год назад

@@SampoPaalanen As a general rule, to scale explosions and flame for miniature you shoot at a higher frame rate and slow it down after to convey the scale.

@LunarEclipsism1 Год назад

Now of course, Adam went through all this trouble matching up the tip from one knife with the blade of another and gradually grinding them to fit together because no matter what tool you use to cut off the tip of something, the missing kerf from where the tool went through the workpiece will prevent that cutoff from matching up seamlessly if you put it back on. What I suppose, though, given the "keep it as simple as possible" philosophy of the 1970s propmasters, is that because hardened steel is so much of a hassle to cut through in the first place (as Adam once again demonstrated with his bandsaw troubles), the original maker simply clamped the tip in a vice and SNAPPED it off, no cutting and fitting necessary. The uneven curve of the break point looking less like a conspicuous perpendicular angle would then be a happy accident. Delightful build either way! But that probably would have saved Adam about an hour on the challenge timer, haha.

@SCRNSH0T Год назад

Wow that’s such a good take, you could very well be right

@Midnotion Год назад

The curve on the blade looks like it matches the planned movement of the actor, so that when flicking the knife, the cut edge maintains contact with the edge of the nostril as closely as possible to encourage the illusion.

@NotTheStinkyCheese Год назад

That has got to be the tough part of replicating effects from movies. Unless you've got the creator on hand you'll never know if certain aspects were by design or a happy accident. Also consider that the original was a cheap knockoff of the knif that Adam was using... so it might have been a bit easier to cut....

@jeradw7420 Год назад

@@NotTheStinkyCheese I was going to add that bit. Adam speculates the original prop used cheap knives which are generally made with cheaper and softer steel. Cutting those blades would have been easy.

@AugmentedSmurf Год назад

Honestly, I love every single one of these ideas. Another one to add to the pile would be those sparking paintball bullets that they use for spark bullet hits vs VFX sparks in composition. Though, I feel that with Fenner being on the team and them using Nuke in their composition pipeline, Corridor Crew may honestly knock any composition challenges out of the park.

The switchblade of course makes me think of the T2: Judgement Day scene where Arnold's T-800 does the big reveal to Dyson, slicing the skin off his arm and pulling it off the metal endoskeleton. Maybe a bit too similar, but it seems like a small enough scale for a CG vs practical video. I feel like this Chinatown shot being dependent on a single prop makes it an exceptionally good candidate for a competition between practical and digital. Everyone can think of great visual effects shots, but it's going to take some special ones to really fit into something of this scope.

I do CGI and small practical effects like this are almost always faster and better.

I don't want to be making some actor's costume half digital because the costume department was given five hours and $20. I'd much rather be making things practical effects have a hard time with like transformation sequences or impossible stunts.
