  Brady Bunch style quares + moving objects between the squares

  Posted by Ace Billet on May 30, 2005 at 8:54 am

  Im about to work on a spot that will be something like the Brady Bunch opening sequnece,
  with people inside squares that will pass objects from each square to the one next to him (sideways + above / below).
  I’m probably going to shoot on bluescreen (no budget for sets), but I need advice on how to do this right.
  Post work will be done on AE.
  Stuff to be passed will be range between big stuff (appliances) and small stuff (coat hangers)

  the things that baffles me most is the up / down moves.

  any ideas ?

  cheers

  Hey,

  Dunno if it help but here are my thoughts on the up/down moves . I’m guessing your doing a locked off shot, which will be about normal profile (head/shoulders). Because you would just shoot it so the actors are kneeling for the pass up and then have someone standing above them and just get them to pass it on. Then for down moves (recieving an object being passed up) get them stand normal and have someone underneath them passing the goods up. Nothing to tricky, you might want to be really on how the moves are (the angle of the goods recieved and given and then be a nazi about it, the only way it’ll work really) And as for post, you might just need to frame match the move (using time strech to step through the animation as you need). dunno if that helps, I havn’t shot anything like that before .. maybe someone with experience on it will be able to help .. Good luck.
