media type="custom" key="8903840" The making of the video

The video I have chosen is called Nuit Blanche (french) translated to English means White Night. The film was shot to look like an old 50's movie in black and white with a bit of film grain to add to the look. The film is actually all in HD, also an interesting fact for the film is only three items are not digitally made 1. the woman. 2. the man. 3. the whine glass.

The town, street lights, side walks, car, glass, the puodle are all from start to finish made with green screen. I think the Nuit Blanche story line is two strangers make eye contact, showing the imagination in an over hyper fantasy. With great HD and special effects it definitely adds that extra something, by allot.

Spy-films story line is Nuit Blanche explores a fleeting moment between two strangers, revealing their brief connection in a hyper real fantasy.

Some of the comments and than answers from viewers: Question:

[|Trey Cook] 1 year agoWhat!?! This is amazing. Question, were the characters in the final shot CG. I noticed you showed a wireframe around them, but I didn't understand why they were CG in that shot unless you did it to get that camera movement. This is an outstanding, breakthrough work! Unbelieve able!

Answer:

[|Marc-André Gray] 1 year ago You will notice that there are a few stills that show up at the start of the shot in the making. Theses are stitched from still photography taken on set to create a large texture plate. The eyes and hair are video plates that are stitched into that texture. The textures are applied to meshes to create the camera move as well as help with adding lighting changes and facial animation (mesh morph targets).

Question: [|David Kruta] 1 year ago What camera did you use to shoot the live-action footage?

Answer: [|Marc-André Gray] 1 year ago Photron for slow motion and dvcpro hd for real time.

Question:

[|Josh Johnson] 1year agoStunning work. How long were you guys in production for this?

Answer:  [|Marc-André Gray] 1 year agoA long time mostly due to limited resources and full time jobs. With a good 6 month crunch to get her all wrapped up.

Thank you for listening.
