We catch up with our pre-production tests and progress for the WW2 Short Film 'A Memory Owed', as seen in previous InCamera episodes. This time we explore the possibilities of combining scale pyrotechnic effects with a motion controlled miniature.
About the short film project:
‘A Memory Owed’ is an emotive story about loss, healing and remembrance set across 1944 and present. In War time, a young (barely an adult) Wireless Operator leaves his home, joins his crew and takes off on his first sortie for the first time. Fast forward 79 years where 90 year old Stanley and his young carer, visit an RAF museum on a day of importance to Stanley, though he isn’t so forthcoming with information as to why.Their generational differences become more and more apparent until they discover a connection through their personal losses. Building on that connection, they go on a journey of remembrance.
To complete the film they need to raise funding and this is where YOU can help. If you would like to help, visit the link in the description below to find out more and donate.

It's so good to see a breakdown of practical effects in a present day environment. Hard to find these days! I'm a CG artist but I believe the best years for VFX was the sweet spot between model effects and CG where the two were integrated

@thekaiser4333 Год назад

There was a lot of talk and running around in the studio. But where was the actual result? The finished shot? I somehow missed that.

@InCameraTV 6 месяцев назад

@@thekaiser4333 the sunset shot is in there a couple of times and the engine fire shot is in there during the post chat. This was a test shoot so they're not necessarily completed shots. We're focusing on the process more than anything

@negotiableaffections Год назад

You guys are actually better than you think you are. You even create the idea of a massive budget . . how's that! The annoyance of 'real world' elements [sun flare etc] that we feel when watching adds to the realism of our expectations. This one, my little bears, tastes Just Right!

@actioncom2748 Год назад

I keep thinking about them old time special effects when they tried to set fire to miniatures that were just too small. Fire doesn't scale. The flames looks more at home on a match head rather than a full scale plane. The fire concieved for this project was definitely art.

@hunormagyar1843 Год назад

Indeed. I feel like it probably shoulda been given a little more airspeed tho or something. Still, this is fairly good for what you can make with a model. One thing for sure is, fire is probably that one thing that can be faked easily to still look quite real; it doesn't have shadows and whatnot, it is the light itself so the lighting of it is probably relatively hard to screw up.

@johnspruit7296 Год назад

This project is MAGNIFICENT , truly remarkable . The engine fire " elements " are TERRIFYING ! My Father signed up RCAF directly after graduating high school ( Toronto Canada ). Was an Instrument Tech on Lancaster's .He Loved the aircraft and the aircrews and fellow ground crews . This film when complete is a MUST HAVE for me ( now 62 ) to pas down to my 7 grandsons .

When I was a kid, in the 70’s I built a model of a German Panzer tank, then I used my dads 8mm camera to do stop motion film of the tank moving, also I used fishing line to simulate a model P40 Warhawk attacking the Panzer tank. I used dirt to simulate explosions. It was kinda fun for awhile. There wasn’t much to do as a kid other than making models, messing with the 8mm camera and we had to entertain ourselves

I love to see folks, other than the big studios, out there still working and experimenting with the boundaries and advantages of practical effects and keeping the craft alive. We need more of this in the world. Digital is great for many things, but it always works best when combined with real, tangible objects and elements in camera. Nice work. Good luck with the project, and I hope you get the chance to do even bigger ones, ahead.

@tbip2001 Год назад

25.55 that shot looks absolutely amazing. I think we often forget that the differnce between ‘practical’ and ‘cgi’ era movie making isnt just the those, but also shot selection, camera movement , and editing. Some of our favorite effects shots were very often locked off, and quick to cut . This led to a specific feelung which would fall out of favour when cgi allowed prolongued shots and tons of camera movement

This looks like the coolest job ever. Getting to build huge models with practical effects to use in cool scenes? Dream job for sure.

@ArmouryTerrain Год назад

CGI is great and all, but by the time someone has coded it and having enough run time to render it all, it is often quicker and cheaper to shoot a model - it also often looks so much better. This was another great video.

@jimsmalleimb7709 Год назад

Nice to see old-school practical models (which ALWAYS look better than CGI) integrated with modern tech to enhance realism. BTW, the Lanc had propellers, not rotors. Rotors are what's on the top of helicopters.

Lancaster... we got one of the last two here at the Warplane Heritage Museum in Hamilton. See it almost every single weekend (weather permmiting) as it flies from Hamilton, along the escarpment out to Niagara Falls. Last summer they actually did a full 360 degree circle right over my parents place... we were all sitting out back. The sound when they hit full throttle coming out of the circle.... Beastly! And no more then 300 feet above ground.

@optimalhealthrevolution5159 Год назад

Thanks for the great Geek P*rn! Fascinating and inspiring. One suggestion from a military pilot -- fires on 250mph bombers don't billow at all. they follow the high speed airflow around the streamlined contours. There is a great example of a realistic engine fire in "Memphis Belle" that includes the desperate high speed dive that extinguishes the starboard engine fire. Have a look .. and all the best on your worthy project!

@jadall77 Год назад

They have a full size mockup of a shot up section of a lancaster they did for a movie that they gave to the museum afterwords. It's at a museum in Canada somewhere. But they built like a 1/4 or 1/3 section of a lancaster.

@jadall77 Год назад

I don't mean like "scale" I mean like a 8-10 foot section of fuselage. A Lancaster that was at the border of new brunswick and nova scotia was moved to a museum where it now rests with another bomber of a different make (halifax) that bombed a city in poland on the same night in different bombing groups. Also my grandfather flew lancasters post ww2 mapping Canada. They would also enforce sovereignty in remote areas of Canada and land dog teams etc. (Official way of claiming land for your country is to trek across it have some presence in it or Denmark or USA or Russia would claim it.) Lancasters are also early cold war spy planes flying along the border of Canada Russia USA etc. Lancasters were passenger planes from prototypes which transported heads of state to transporting people in South America to Australia. They were used for jet testbeds in fuselage to mounting 2 jets engines and retaining 2 regular engines as the first jet powered commercial airliners.

In the side shot of the fire ignition mixed with the 3D model you can see a second after it lights it goes back up the cooling chamber towards the propeller of the engine just like it would in real life once all the pistons where on fire and shot that fire out of their exhaust in a order like dominos falling.

There are actually two different /32 Lancaster kits available . The manufacturers are Border Models and HK Kits. In addition, Wingnut did a 1/32 Lancaster, Dambusters variant. Plastic kits have been used in movies and TV eg Top Gun, The Right Stuff (Monogram B-29) and many Gerry Anderson shows used modified plastic kits.

@fatcat3211 Год назад

@andrewglazebrook1585 Год назад

@KyleCowden Год назад

The state of the art for CGI is mind blowing. Yet there's always something, inarticulable that's missing or maybe it's there and shouldn't be. Practicals add "life" to the scenes that cannot be gotten any other way. Del Toro's recent Pinnochio is a good example. You _could_ CGI a "stop motion" effect or produce deeply refined animation but there isn't "life" like there is in actual stop motion. Can't wait to see the film.

@InCameraTV Год назад

Hard agree. Thanks very much.

@andrasjacso686 Год назад

Really nice job! There is one little thing I noticed. When the engine blowup occurs the fireball moves and dissolve in a 45° angle upward instead of a horizontal way as ut would happen in real life around 200mph. I would turn the wing section 45 degree ccw so the front edge of the wing will look downwards and the rear edge upwards and line up the ventillator 45 degree upward and a bit closer to the front edge of the wing. Burnt residue will be blown backwards alongside the wing and not falling down. That woukd give you a more realistic fireball and enginefire effect, moving flames and smoke parallel the wing's top and bottom surface.

This is the kind of channel I wanted to start, but for, we'll just say, reasons, I wasn't able to. Glad you guys are exploring a lot of the classic vfx and sfx in the modern day. CG can pretty much do anything now, but is it as fun to learn about how to make a 3d scene, as it is learning how filmmakers solved all of these problems without computers (for the most part - obviously motion control has been a thing since star wars). I'd pose that this is just much more interesting. Note I'm not saying CG is easier or whatever, I'm just saying finding out real-world mechanical solutions to getting something interesting on screen, is far more fun and interesting. Not really a plane guy, or even a WWII enthusiast (although I do like a good WWII movie), but this is making me more interested in the short film.

@simonhughes-king8493 Год назад

Marvellous. Combining all the real elements really sells the shot. The Lancaster cruised at around 200mph, so the wind speed maybe should have been higher for the model and fire, but I guess the fan would have blown the fire out more often than it did.

@InCameraTV Год назад

Indeed, all of the featured shots are very much a 'Work in Progress' to show the general idea - the explosion and fire elements can easily be re-timed, warped a little in shape and motion blur added to give the final appropriate look of faster windspeed.
