A special behind-the-scenes look at how I made James's Accident! Thanks for watching! Email: samstrains@outlook.com Facebook: samstrains Twitter: samstrains
Very cool, thanks for revealing the secrets of James' Accidents. I'd love to do that someday, but I'd need to buy the programs first, which isn't an answer right now. One thing I'm curious about is how you did James' accident without damaging him--or is that one of the secrets you want to keep? If so, that's fine.
haha no problem Patrick - ahh yeah that's true - they do cost the earth! haha the answer is I don't know - it's kudos for the model, having not a scratch after all that abuse! Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Ooh, a behind the scenes video!! I absolutley love these types of videos!! I loved the video! And I've just noticed, you have merch now?! I'll have to buy some now!!
Thanks so much Tyson - really glad you like them! Yeah I do - thanks a lot mate, that'd be a lovely way to support the channel, if you wanted to! Enjoy! :D Thanks for watching - Sam :)
It’s nice that you spend so much time doing these kind of vids to make us happy, and I thank you alot for you dedication! This was actually really fun to watch though!
Brilliant work Sam. It's the little details you've added (like table shadows on the close up shots of James's face) that make this short film excellent and not just good.
I cannot wait to see the next video that you do, I really hope it's a cooler version than James's Accident (which was really awesome), I hope it goes well. Keep on making more videos like James's Accident.
To think it takes that much time just for only a 8-10 minute video :0 But in the end, very well put together and very enjoyable :) Thanks for the video Sam :D
You’re welcome. I’m glad you were able to make this video. I could be able to use these techniques in the future. Have you seen a video titled Mallard(3D)?
Now some off thouse senecs actually make sense!!!! Thx for reveling some off the secrets, ur vids really are awesome and u have inspired me to bulid my own model railway. Thx Sam u are the best!!!!!🚂
Sam'sTrains thank you so much that means a lot and so are you. Not a lot of RU-vidrs care to respond back so it shows you care when you do so and I appreciate that.
This was very interesting to see. I'll have to try some of these effects in my own Thomas series. Maybe not number five though XD Really hope you make another orginal episode like this again
This was great! You’re really more talented than you let on. You said this took only a week? You must’ve been working so hard to get that much done so quickly. I’m not nearly as productive as you are. ;) I’d love to see more behind the scenes videos (if they’re not too much work).
Ahh you're very kind mate! Yeah it was a very hellish week - it truly took every hour of every day, haha!! Yeah for sure - I could do more like this soon! :D Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Nice Video Sam I'll try some of these if I film any of my models (which I have just started and has an LMS suburban coach, Milk van and a brake van) Also I clicked on this faster than Mallard going over Stoke Bank at 126mph.
Also you could have added James's tender at the back of those two flatbeds so that way it looks more accurate so you can actually see James's tender turning
Thanks a lot Austin! You can really use any video editing software to make what I make - there's nothing too specific with them! :D Thanks for watching - Sam :)
This is really well done Sam, I really enjoyed it, I was wondering if you had a favourite character, my fav is Henry, but you are entitled to your own opinions enjoy your day mate 👍🏻
Great video Sam the effects and models look lovely. P.S what model would you recommend, I am starting my collection and wondering what would be best thanks in advance
Thanks a lot mate - really glad you liked these! If you're starting off, maybe a starter set loco is the best way to go - check out my latest video - those are pretty good and robust for starters!! :D Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Awesome video Sam!! I love all of your videos and I've been watching them ever since you literally began unboxing the Hornby Thomas locomotives. Just a question about your awesome James' Accident video. Who voiced Emily? Greetings from Australia!
This was a great way to learn how to make videos like this. Though there is something I would like to see from your channel, and it's actually like your video of Railway Roundabout (1958). Could you recreate moments from Thomas episodes on your layout?
Sam´s Trains: Animates Faces like an expert Also Sam´s Trains: Blows out fire on carpet to create smoke And i didn´t even mention the Rocket loco (Salvador the Snail) with the model shed used to hold the rocket motor XD
I actually made a tiny ramp that sat on the inside of one rail - it threw him off when he reached the bend! You can just see it on the outer rail, if you pause it at the right time! :D Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Hi Sam, what happened to James' tender in the runaway scene during the crash. Is there a reason behind that. Many thanks for the good video, bring on more behind the scenes vids
Hi Sam did you do anything to your Bachman Thomas And Friends Locomotives because I see you using your HM2000 controller and was wondering if they work as soon as they are on the tracks or did you put something in the Locos would really help if you reply 😁👍
Hey Lewis - no, these work perfectly on my HM2000 straight out of the packaging! You can add a drop of oil to the moving parts if they don't seem to be going too well! Thanks for watching - Sam :)
How did you do the part where everything goes blurry before fading to black (after the crash)? Also, how did you do the bit where we see James waking up from his Point of View (also after the crash)?
Hey Harvie, those were just visual effects - you can do that using most video editing software! Otherwise, I just used the small action cams to film those! Thanks for watching - Sam :)
