You guys give yourselves so much crap but youre true geniuses! Pushing through roadblocks and problems with true imagination and skill. Your work is astounding and better than most big budget movies. Most people want the public to only see the successes and triumphs. You guys are real! Passionate and show how hard someone needs to work to get magic to spark. Im in awe of you guys and dont ever stop! Youre true film makers
Robert Rodgriuez said that in many cases a limited budget and equipment make for a better film. It forces you to be more creative. You guys are knocking it out of the park.
Its like I've said for years....'Why don't Manfrotto just make one piece of broken tile, brush and piece of sponge?'. Stellar work guys, love your achievements. - JP
Every once in a while the algorithm sends me gold. I guess I've exhausted all the earwax cleaning videos on UA-cam. It's really great to see your work with practical effects. CGI has its place, but this stuff is fantastic!
Thank you so much for still using miniatures! Whenever I see people making movies with them, my hope for being a film director is rekindled. Really makes you feel like you can make any movie in your backyard.
I just love these old-school effects that goes in-camera with none, or almost no, post-production and the forced perspective was really really neat idea and something to remember for my own future projects! :)
Yes there is always at least a little bit of post, but in Slice of Life we were doing 10-15 passes for each shot, and here often just one or two. So it was MUCH MORE in camera which was really cool!
I just rediscovered you guys many years after the therpf days and I'm absolutely blown away, what you can achieve with such a modest budget. You are all incredibly talented!
Working with what you have was always the trick even when we did them for big films. There was always something we would have to deal with due to budget, time or … things not working. Looks great!
this is literally the greatest video of all of youtube. Problem solving, storytelling, vfx, crafts, miniatures, this video has every single thing I like in it!!!!
I'm a student at the FPTC TPT (Television Production Technology) Program, and every now and then I always go on a search on UA-cam for tutorial videos to past the time, and I think this video is one of my most favorites! I love miniature effects and I do hope to work with those kind of things later in my life. Thank you for showing these amazing effects!❤❤
This is such a dose of inspiration. I’m sure it can be frustrating when one shot doesn’t initially come out the way you’d like, but I can assure the improvement shot you made afterwards looks perfectly seamless. And of all the things you share, I think I most enjoy listening to you explain how you overcome those kinds of roadblocks. Kudos! Look forward to the short.
You Dudes are so much fun to watch , but yet give so many ideas an solve problems , with a great attitude an passion . Truly inspiring . I build puppets an have done some shorts . After watching I don't feel alone in my madness , but more eager to follow my vision . Will be watching for your next adventure ,Thanks
You guys are really amazing. Your passion and creativity is pouring out of you! All you need is a dream, a vision, and you can go to the stars! Keep it up guys this is only the beginning!
Hello Luka & Dino! I watched Slice of Life and all of the production diaries made there a few years ago - it's great to see you guys still going strong after such a long time! Inspiring!!
The fact that if you showed me this i wouldn't know they were miniatures is not only amazing but is also a testament to the use of miniatures. It is my firm belief that practical effects should be the norm. Not the exception.
Your passion for filmmaking comes across on every video. From pre-production - Production - post-production, then to having a beer ( or two ) at the end of the day. Looking forward to the next episode. Cheers!
You dudes are downright unstoppable! Still loving the behind the scenes series btw, it's probably the best look into how to film a movie anywhere on UA-cam. Most people only talk about how to make movies and make up a bunch of stuff based on what they read online. But you dudes are showing how to do it as you're doing it for a real movie! It's awesome! Stuff like this is why you're my favorite Croatian filmmakers
Movie armour-maker here. What I have learned from making my own crazy miniature shorts is the one thing you need ABOVE ALL ELSE when filming miniatures is ironically... lots and LOTS of space!!!! 😂👍🇬🇧 BRAVO to you both, I don't really understand the digital post stuff you do, but it is clear that your combination of that with your first-class model work is the cherry on the cake! Best wishes to you all from a French forest. ⚒️🐭⚒️
I can't tell you how much I enjoyed your videos, and your sense of humor. You guys are super talented, and this was an easy subscribe. These kinds of videos are what make UA-cam great.
you guys are too hard on yourselves , Slice of life was magnificent , your this project is fantastic , I am really glad I found you channel a while back.
Yessss! Fantastic video. I love how you guys always make it seem casual but you actually really know what you’re doing-the final shots look very very good… on my iPhone Can’t wait to see the final movie!!! 4K on my TV.
The miniature work is awesome! It all looks real; because they are real. The level of detail absolutely sells each shot. I hope you are having as much fun making this film as I am watching you make it happen. I love, "Slice of Life" too. The story, cinematography, the models, you hade me with the Blade-Runner-esque theme. Bravo.
Fantastic process and results! As a 3D artist, I love to see miniatures having that extra layer of realism for everything we can’t explain, congratulations!
At this point I'm probably just repeating myself, but this is so fun to watch. Awesome miniature work, paired with simple but very functional practical solutions and lots of humor. Bullseye!
Cool as F! Amazing. I reckon you can really tell as CGI has it's place but looses something. This stuff you do is second to none. Thanks for the upload.
This is really impressive work, and a wonderful testament to the versatility of miniatures. Those finished shots look amazing. Well done. It saddens me that Hollywood and modern filmmaking don't utilize miniatures enough anymore. It's a wonderful art.
I can't believe that the first video about Miniatures & Filming is just what I was thinking while walking the dog, first time seeing your video, but feels so at home! Thanks for shareing!
This was brilliant. The first video I've seen from you guys. I had no idea about the film or anything but just watching this behind the scenes made me so interested. Such small props and such huge talent. There's nothing miniature about your passion for film. Kudos.
I love the tarp covered crates. Super convincing looking. Using the TV for background on the Apollo shot reminds me of the Volume productions like the Mandalorian are using for live digital backdrops. Cool to see that that concept can scale down on a budget.
at MGM Disney they have a miniature set of a submarine firing a torpedo at a ship using a compressed air nozzle sequence. at 1:20 scale, they capture at 200fps and play back at 15, to turn 0.6 seconds real time into some 9 seconds of 'full-scale' footage with the water moving like the ocean.
the stuff you guys do is so inspiring- it has made me want to try miniature work in film for myself. Keep it up! I like how you used the TV as an LED projection background- great use of modern tech to recreate an old moviemaking trick

This is what real passionate filmmaking should be. Having fun, building things, making stories come to life.
Agreed!
fuckn eh !
.... and drinking beer!
And this is what we will lose in the next few years, cause the fucking AI.
@@ateexd There's one thing AI lacks, and that is putting its "soul" in a creation.
With so much CGI, it's nice to see people with the imagination, skill, and patience to build these miniatures.
Thanks a lot!! ♥️
What’s not broken? The mini-fridge! I’m glad your priorities are straight! Such brilliant work… truly inspiring!
Haha yes! If the fridge died I don't know what I would do!
You guys give yourselves so much crap but youre true geniuses! Pushing through roadblocks and problems with true imagination and skill. Your work is astounding and better than most big budget movies.

Ditto.
Thanks a lot for the awesome motivational speech dude! Really appreciate it! ❤❤❤❤❤
These Mexicans demonstrate their advancements.😮
Robert Rodgriuez said that in many cases a limited budget and equipment make for a better film. It forces you to be more creative. You guys are knocking it out of the park.
I guess it's true! Thanks!
Love it how restrictions and boundaries always ignite sparks of creativity
Slice of life is still my favorite fan made movie ever. It’s an masterpiece.
I agree 100%
I second that 100%!!
I agree 68%
i agree 1000‰
Add my 32% and we have 100%.@@sliceoflifefilm
Its like I've said for years....'Why don't Manfrotto just make one piece of broken tile, brush and piece of sponge?'.
Stellar work guys, love your achievements. - JP
HAHA, this made me laugh out loud. 😂😂 Darn it, it Manfrotto won't, we should patent it and get rich!!! Thanks JP!
I love how you guys overcame each problem as it came up. You guys are persistent and you get the job done!
No other way about it! Tnx! 😉
Every once in a while the algorithm sends me gold. I guess I've exhausted all the earwax cleaning videos on UA-cam. It's really great to see your work with practical effects. CGI has its place, but this stuff is fantastic!
We definitely can't compare with earwax cleaning videos, but I'm glad you like our work! 😉❤
Thank you so much for still using miniatures! Whenever I see people making movies with them, my hope for being a film director is rekindled. Really makes you feel like you can make any movie in your backyard.
I just love these old-school effects that goes in-camera with none, or almost no, post-production and the forced perspective was really really neat idea and something to remember for my own future projects! :)
You are wrong post work for this type of scene is monumental.
@ilic1878Never said some don't requires work, i said i love those kinds of effects when you don't have to do it, or hardly any at all, is all.
Yes there is always at least a little bit of post, but in Slice of Life we were doing 10-15 passes for each shot, and here often just one or two. So it was MUCH MORE in camera which was really cool!
@@sliceoflifefilmYes, noticed that and it's really cool to see a minimal amount of post and more in-camera stuff, keep it up. Love to follow along :)
I just rediscovered you guys many years after the therpf days and I'm absolutely blown away, what you can achieve with such a modest budget. You are all incredibly talented!
Ohooo! Great to see a RPF veteran here! Thanks a lot! ❤
Working with what you have was always the trick even when we did them for big films. There was always something we would have to deal with due to budget, time or … things not working.
Looks great!
Yea, from what I read it's always like that! That's what makes it fun I guess! :D

The level of time and detail you both focus on to make this and Slice of Life inspire me in my work. I can't wait to see the finished product.
Thanks a lot for the kind words! ❤
Fascinating! This is truly movie magic! 👏👏👏
Tnx Rodolfo! ❤❤
i swear... i laugh as hard as i am AMAZED by your creativity... i would PAY money to come visit and watch...
Yoo Ben! Thanks a lot!
Great job and wonderful sense of humour !
Glad you enjoyed it!
You work hard to please the viewer, and this alone is worthy of making me subscribe to your channel
Thanks a lot and welcome! 😉
Kick ass job guys! Miniatures are my favorite in-camera effect. Combine them with modern digital comping and it looks AMAZING!
This is such a dose of inspiration. I’m sure it can be frustrating when one shot doesn’t initially come out the way you’d like, but I can assure the improvement shot you made afterwards looks perfectly seamless. And of all the things you share, I think I most enjoy listening to you explain how you overcome those kinds of roadblocks. Kudos! Look forward to the short.
Yes. I like taking about problematic aspects. That's the best way to teach and showcase the process. 😉😉
This was so cool! So fun to watch and the end results are amazing!
Glad you liked it!! Thanks!
I'm loving every episode, super inspiring as always !

I love this duo and of course their resourceful miniatures and filming techniques. As the French say "arrivederci".
As the Germans say: Merci beaucoup! ♥️♥️♥️
Amazing talent! When you know you can't tell the difference you know you've done your job.
❤
You guys are really amazing. Your passion and creativity is pouring out of you! All you need is a dream, a vision, and you can go to the stars! Keep it up guys this is only the beginning!

Love your spirit of creativity - and your problem solving! Thoroughly enjoyed this! With love and respect from Atlanta.
Thank you so much! Cheers!
Looks better than many CGI effects made in Hollywood films these days. Thank you for sharing!
As a filmmaker who specialized on miniatures as well, this is pure joy!! I loved everything of it - great work guys!!
Awesome, thank you!

Great work guys, that was awesome to see. You certainly paid homage to the early days of filmmaking, with a modern twist
That was the plan! Thanks!
This was awesome. I love filmmaking and seeing how these shots came to life was incredible.
Your passion for filmmaking comes across on every video.
From pre-production - Production - post-production, then to having a beer ( or two ) at the end of the day.

Haha, yes having a dedicated workshop or a garage really helps! Cheers back from Croatia! 😉😉❤
That is awesome! Nice job! I like miniatures!
It takes you to childhood when you're played with cars, trains, houses like in a movie.
It totally does. Sometimes we were laughing at the situation. Like, are we really playing with cars all day? 😂
Wow, this is totally awesome! Been looking for this kind of craftsmanship and cinematography for a long time. Very inspiring, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Sick! I never managed to do a single convincing green screen shot and you guys are nailing it bigtime. Mucho respect, as the germans say!
Haha.. Practice I guess! 😉😉❤

It can be very fun. Good luck if you decide to try!!
Ma super. . Ja sam oduševljen. . 🤗 Tako spontano i improvizirano u hodu, a tako dobro. . Bravooo. . 👏👏👏
Fala puno!!!!
I love the tarp covered crates. Super convincing looking. Using the TV for background on the Apollo shot reminds me of the Volume productions like the Mandalorian are using for live digital backdrops. Cool to see that that concept can scale down on a budget.
Check out our video about filming inserts. We use it a lot for the inserts, and we actually called it "Poor man's Mandalorian Technique". 😂
This is so impressive what you guys can do with limited budget!
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Keep making these videos - so fun to watch. Just imagine if these bunch were my best buddies 😄
Thanks! Check out the rest of the videos! There's plenty more.
Brilliant stuff. Very inventive you don't need huge budgets. Also you look like you had loads of fun too.
Thanks a lot!

dude!! this content is insane, by far the best filmmaking channel in the entire YT!! keep it up, tons of love from Mexico!
Glad to have you here! ❤❤
Really cool to see how you guys make this movie happen with such simple things.
Great fun stuff guys! The tile and brush for the camera angle parking lot shot is high level pro stuff. Necessity is the mother of invention. 😀👏
Hahaha. Couldn't agree more!
Just fantastic. Amazing work, as always, guys!
This is so awesome, I love the style of these shots!
Came across this video randomly. Wow! This was a lot of fun! You guys are great! As the croats say: På gjensyn
I must say this is Norwegian, haha. But thanks a lot! Glad to hear you like our work.
arrivederci for sure! this is just amazing, seeing this type of obsession almost, is always inspiring
Glad you enjoy it!
absolutely brilliant. you all are amazing filmmakers.
Thanks a lot Charles! 😉❤
Thunderbirds are go again, great miniature effects.
This was incredible. Well done guys and thank you for sharing!
Our pleasure!
Ah the quintessential AT-X 11-16mm lens. Also good taste.
Haha. And the most important reason: it was affordable! 😂😂
Wow, this is incredible! Thank you for your work!
Glad you like it!
4:41 Bro, that's genius! Christopher Nolan would be proud!
Thanks brotha!!!❤
You guys keep getting better and better.
These shots are absolutely incredible! you guys are so insanely talented.
Thank you!!!
Bro I have learned so much from this like the compositing plates. Grateful
Great to hear! There's much more info about it in some of our older videos.
@@sliceoflifefilm Will check it out for sure! Keep it up, you guys inspire!!
so incredibly cool. passionate filmaking at it's best
absolutely amazing stuff guys!
I really enjoyed watching this. Keep up the great work
the stuff you guys do is so inspiring- it has made me want to try miniature work in film for myself. Keep it up! I like how you used the TV as an LED projection background- great use of modern tech to recreate an old moviemaking trick
And it works great! We just need a bigger TV! 😂❤
@@sliceoflifefilm don't we all lol. Also it made me realize the volumes in modern film sets are basically just enormous wraparound LED TVs lol
