Thanks for watching. Please reach out with any questions when setting up.

Haha, yes, good point. Shooting on a naval vessel is hard enough without needing golden hour to last...six hours

@@JoshuaMKerr indeed, not to mention the nightmare that sound recording is on a ship - but i guess this wasn't necessary here perhaps

Thanks, man. I see you've been enjoying my content. Thanks for the thoughtful comments.

Thanks Marc!

Thanks!

Cheers!

There's a lot in tne work to make it easier.

@@JoshuaMKerr I’m super excited for it though, even at this state

Unreal isn't a great live compositor. You can do despill and basic corrections. That's as much as we did for this shoot, knowing it was going to post anyway

Feel free to ask questions. Otherwise I am planning a course.

Let me know how it goes. I've found it just so simple that it is hard not to get totally enthusiastic.

Will let you know how it goes. Thanks again for the great video.

😂this is so funny. I Plan to get into Unreal and Virtual production and its so crazy you call it simple. So many Apps, menus, Buttons, calibration, rigging, cables, Greenscreen Studios...

@@smepable Every tool seems hard to use from when you first start using it. The good news is that it will get easier the more you use the tool. ☺️

@@bit-studios1 i very much Hope so. Have you Seen the Video of Joshua on the event where it stopped working and He needed hours to find out that all He needed to do was to Push the refresh Button. Thats the nightsmares I am talking about. Sony made a new App for their Cameras to Connect and Transfer to phones and its a Nightmare because it Just wont connect If you do it the exactly right way. You know, in Video you want to make great Things but then, even the simplest things dont work.

That's awesome man. Have you joined my discord?

@@JoshuaMKerr I have not, let me do that now. next gen filmmakes, right?

@garthmccarthy4911 Thats the one

Haha thanks man

Autoshot is made by Jetset for exactly this purpose. Which part did you find the most confusing?

@JoshuaMKerr it's not confusing that a wrong word to use but maybe a little not as simple as click and play. It should be just link the phone bluetooth or wifi to the Pc and it will guide through the steps. Without showing me the technical stuff. Think of it this way, there's no way the owner of the production company would have got it to work without you being there to help. It should intuitively made so that less experienced people would be able to fellow the steps without needing to search online on how to do it.

Hi, yes it's the smallrig cage for the iphone. Other nan that we used a magic arm to mount the phone in place and it seemed to work nicely.

@@JoshuaMKerr ok so you do lenses calibration per day, as magic arm wont always keep the same exact place

@dothefilmTV We only shot for one day, so a magic arm was fine. Otherwise, you could use rails to mount it. I used rails and rail mounts at the NAB show.

I've only used vive trackers, and I'd certainly choose it over those. Im not sure about how the Mars improves on the trackers asside from setting and origin easier. The vive trackers almost always jitter when left stationary in my experience.

@@JoshuaMKerr Thanks man, I'm definitely going to give this app a try at some point!

Im sure I'll get to that. I find the tracking plus lens calibration super easy. Not to mention the iphone doubling as a monitor for the virtual and physical elements.

As far as I'm aware the accsoon is the only gardware that bridges the gap between camera and ios.

I believe Lightcraft will be there but not me I'm afraid. I think my next one will be IBC.

It's called an accsoon seemo. It feeds the video from the cinema camera to the phone

@@JoshuaMKerr ah okay so the final footage that’s used is from the camera and not the phone since you’re using that? Will this work with a black magic cine camera?

@@sanjimanga8923 Any camera with an HDMI or SDI output. The key piece of hardware is the Seemo from accsoon to get the cine footage across to the phone for calibration.

@@JoshuaMKerr thank you!

Not mine but the studio had a 4090

@@JoshuaMKerr is it okay to use ryzen 7 7800x3d bec i also do gaming

It should, the main requirement is the lidar sensor. The iPhone 14 should be able to handle a fair bit of geomtery too.

ligthcraft.pro Their website

It's not photoreal for sure, but the quality level we arrived at was what the client needed.

If it's not for you that's fine. I just happen to enjoy it. For me it offers the freedom to tell certain kinds of stories like science fiction, which can be prohibitive at scale. Not everyone will need these tools.

@@JoshuaMKerr I am into sci-fi :) And funny thing is I never made a short film in sci-fi genre, horror, mystery or something like that.

I've done it at the very low budget end without virtual production but decided to dive into this so I could work on a bigger canvas

Nice one

I do mention right at the start and the video is marked as paid promotion. The title is representative of the content.
