Looks incredible! This particular build reminds of the early days of ILM and how those artists mashed, glued, and painted whatever they could find to create physical props. Creating physical props is an art form and you sir, are a master.
"Are you saying their engine sucks?"
"No sir, I'm saying the engine room equipment includes vacuum cleaners."
Fellow makers, don't forget your automobile junkyards. We have a pair of yards called "Pull and Save" meaning they will charge you three bucks to wander aound their yard, and an additional charge (not much) for whatever treasure/greeblie you take off one of their wrecked cars. They have lots of plastics, hoses, and odd-looking parts to stoke your imiginaion .
If you add shimmer powder to the water it would look like plasma
Have to smile at the "pro-vent" soffit venting panels in the background; I have loved using this for techy background stuff for yeas.
Love watching you build Anthony. I know you're a big shapes guy, $20 says you're like me and will be at a thrift store, see something with a cool shape, and but it just because you know you will use it in a build.
Same way with changing a build when two pieces get misaligned and all of a sudden it looks better because of the new profile shape. :) 3d printing has been a very good thing for greebles too.
The practical and in camera effects enhanced with the CGI is the way to go for low budget and can be done well. When I was in high school it was film cameras and video cameras weren't really a common thing. Now in days if you wanted to can you film a short completely on your phone's camera. You can edit it on some free open source software (an add some effects) as well as render it. Just the idea of being able to pull that off on a home computer and a freaking phone would have been a pie in the sky dream back then. Use the tools you have to better your craft. The day you stop learning is the day you stop breathing,
Even knowing that these things are made for like a buck fifty and some spit (ok exaggerated there, but...) It doesn't take away from the immersion when watching the movie. That's the magic of cinema.
Also, it's good that you make everything with disassembly in mind. It means you can keep the bits to mash up in other productions where possible.
true
You are an inspiring creator! Thank you for all of the hard work and for sharing with all of us!
This is such an underrated and fun channel.
Love seeing you make these builds!
You take random stuff and well, create Sci-fi
I knew about Wakener before I knew about this channel. Thank you for taking us along on how you created your props! It’s very helpful and interesting.
Such an awesome build! And thanks for the Apex tip, turns out they are about 4 miles from me, I'll have to go check it out.
I love a fun practical effects shot. Would a bit of smoke in the air have added to the sense of scale for the reactor; or, maybe a slightly lower angle shot?
That fish tank looks like it's only a little smaller than the ones in Aliens that the face huggers were in. I'm going to go look on amazon for the larger ones now.
Ohhhh I love it. I love how you take random stuff and make altogether different stuff from those. I'm working that way myself, re-using stuff from tipp shops and scrap yards, hardware stores and recycling places 🙂
I love to look at something and see an entirely unrelated thing in it!
Love your channel!
This channel is a great treasure.
Always get excited when I see a new vid come out. Your build vids are always such fun; I basically show up so I can live vicariously through your prop building mastery.
Absolutely love these making videos
I can't wait to see it!!
Awesome!
So glad I found your channel!
Another amazing prop build!
Sweet practical effect. Love process.
Wow that really turned out! Nice work
Outstanding work!
Just found your channel and love it! thank you for the work.
What an entertaining video! Thank you so much for sharing it with the world!!
Wow, that came out awesome man
Now that has to be my favorite build you've done this far and I've been watching for probably going on two years now
Excellent video Anthony, definitely one of the best. The Apex place looked fantastic, I would love to be let loose in there, if only there was one here in the UK. Seeing that prop in the film really looked the part, you are certainly tantalising us with these clips. Really looking forward to Wakener, excellent work!
Nicely done Anthony.. looks fantastic 👍
Super exciting!!! Thank you!!! 😁💥💥💥
love the creativity man it looks awesome
You are always inspiring... love your work..
Haven't even begun watching the tutorial and I already gave you a like anyway because you always bring the value my man.
Freaking awesome. You are a Renaissance man.
awesome!! loved the 60s vaccuum cleaners in the bg!! Would not have spotted that until you pointed it out
Just watched the film on Dust. Great work!
Damn dude just stumbled upon your page and want to get into DIYs seems like a great place to learn
Definitely going to be making some of these for my Warhammer 40K table top gaming😊👌👍
The decision to go practical over CGI was the right one.
agree
This turned out super great, dude. Just found your channel a couple days ago and I'm really enjoying your style. Enjoy this algorithm pellet.
Love it, and so much better than conventional CGI, well worth the time and effort which you put into it. The best scratch builers always make stuff look so simple which they invariably are not. Thanks for sharing man. Keep up the great work.
I've recently been to LA and also was at APEX - love their container full of old computers that blink :)
thank you so much when my mind gets to busy or stressed like to look at these to try and see things in a different light
as make something from something else helps me to do the same
right on
Your videos are GREAT! I've learned so much from you, i feel like im late on my tuition payments. Really though, all jokes aside, thanks fella.
That looks cool.
thx
Nice
I don't think people understand how valuable this channel is. As a 24 year old man, this has made my friends left in awe.
so great to hear
ah the classic "Good, Chip or Fast, pick two" question of prop making.
yup
I recently dug out my old GI Joe 3 3/4" tall O ring figures from the eaŕly to mid 80s. I've added war toys from Click N Play like Abrams M1A1 Tanks, LAV-25 Light Armored Reconnaissance Vehicles, Russian Armored Troop Transports, A-10 Warthog, F105 Starfighters, MIG-21, F-14 Tomcats, SU-25 and F-18 Hornet jets, Little Bird, Black Bird and Pavehawk helicopters, HumVee jeeps, T-80 Tanks, Russian ICBM missle trucks and more all in 1:18 scale to match the GI Joesgĥĥ I have. I also kitbashed a several Joe vehicals and even used parts of figures to make new characters.
All this was to start making stop motion or capture films. At this point I have thousands and thousands of photos that when linked together make a moving movie sceen. I need some help in how to do practical effects for cannon firing, missle launch, fires 🔥, explosions, and such. I would prefer practical effects ideals as adding in didgital lateŕ I just dont love. Do you have any archived videos on this sort of thing?
Great work
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow, that looks so good I want to stick one in my man cave, fog machine, flashing amber lights and claxons, good times!
Love all your builds at the moment I'm looking to make an ancient relic any channels you recommend for other builders?
Wicked rad build bro.
thx brother
Just mind boggling! I wish I had half your skill at prop making!
Inspiration, perspiration, imagination and opportunity as well as a good stock of bits and pieces.... As far as I know the first three are free.
very good i was building a model quantum computer .. this has given me ANY ideas thanks !!!! i subscribed to your channel
love that
With you talking about doing more practice in shot VFX I am curious if you have played around much with peppers ghost? I recently saw a video on the topic by Van Oaks Props here on UA-cam and immediate thought of this reactor build of yours.
❤❤❤❤ Nice.. I'll have to check out Apex. Thank you
It reminds me of Dale's. I dig it
thx!
@@createscifi Daleks*** from Doctor Who, not "Dale's", lol, damn autocorrect!
Looks good,
thumb nail reminded me of a DIY hydrogen generator.
Side note there was a kid who built a nuclear reactor in his moms pottery shed. (the story or report is on UA-cam somewhere.)
Very cool!
Is the reactor supposed to be a large thing in-universe? It seemed a bit small on its own in the room without any people around it.
APEX?!?!?!?! OMG! I used to live right down the road from there!
its amazing
Those two pieces that went around the pot are parts from a jet engine. compressor section I believe.
Amazing how much production-value you can get from the ol' "duct-tape and chewing-gum" method. Even in big-budget features, where too much in the other direction can wind up making your actors look like they're hauling around elaborate "League Of Legends" cosplay-props.
Love it…. In the clip… nuk-lee-ur, not nuk-u-lor. One is a cell core, one is a phase of matter. I assume she meant the latter.
Wicked kool “;-)”
ya mon :)
👍👍👍
"SausageBread"
When's the shirt releasing?
hahah good idea
Wicked cool
Are those vacuum cleaners?
Life sucks so should the sci-fi as needed
@@PWingert1966 haha
BINGO !
I have a feeling your favorite color is blue. Let me know if I’m wrong. 😅Love your videos.
haha no but it is the palet on this picture. My favorite color is purple
You forgot to fire it up 😉
Great Reactor ☢️👍
PS. You should wear a protective mask when spraying inside, the water-based spray paint is not healthy 🫁
Build a fume hood. THat is what I did. Low volume airflow using a fan exhausting to the outside
@@PWingert1966 very good idea 👍
You are right
The actress saying “nucular” made me cringe a little lol. You said “nuclear” correctly. I work in medical imaging and certain mispronunciations drive me crazy. Great job as always.
Awesome build! It just bugs me that the scientist says "nucular" instead of nuclear ;)
Yeah, same.
yup few people said that but what they don;t know is the tech is centuries dead , not used in hundreds of years
Turn up the bubbles and change the lights to red and you have a reactor meltdown.
Combined with the tech giving temparture reading and some bubbling sounds in the background!
stay tuned that does happen
@@createscifi sort of guessed that would happen,no point in putting a nuclear reactor in a movie and not having it meltdown.
Looks like old vacuum cleaners in the background. Electrolux maybe?
BINGO !!!!!
That's a nuclear reactor. Possibly centuries old and retrofitted into an even older ship. What were they thinking? The neutron degradation of the alloys would make it so fragile. I don't understand why they didn't use a synthetic singularity, those are so much cleaner, easier to maintain and have much more stable power.
After seeing it I immediately had to view William Shatner as Commander Murdock at Lunar Base Alpha Beta and the Red Lights Keep Moving Back And Forth.
"I'm afraid I'll never get over Macho Grande."
yeah man
first
First thx you reply ! Back at cha :)
no sound??
There's sound.
@@wadebarnett2542 thx
There was a problem with my headphones, I could hear other things but not UA-cam, no idea why
mens shaving razors.......are in the background.
The woman mispronounced "nuclear." I hope that was corrected. Something like that pulls me right out of a movie. Otherwise, terrific work.
It's probably the Canadian pronunciation we over pronounce things due to the cold arctic air half the year!
Thx, and yup, thats the way it's said.
GREAT WORK......
thx CF
Nice to meet you. I see so many decent sci fi flicks that just sucked really badly just in props, like a P4 motherboard glued on a wall, as-is, fior lengthy, up-close scenes by a talking head. I'd have helped for free if I could and was, like, up the street. Not to devalue the trade, I just mean it would have taken so little effort but they can't find the right person at the right time while there's money in the budget, I guess. I did a little prosthetics and stuff, but I make old-fashioned woodwind instruments for a living, and want to make ray-guns on the side for fun.
