Firts Monster's Test

Today Cesar & I film some tests, Cesar acting as a Monster & I acting as a Director!!! "LOL", I Block 3 scenes, it was very interesting, I took a lot of notes, I thinking in bringing Guillermo to film some new and old scenes, but, it's a low provability for this, I'll do some test first to be sure.

Video Composite of the hand


Here is the final composite video, this clip is 4:3 but in the movie will be 16:9(WIDE), also, will need more color correction & frame rate conversion, but, this will be done at the final step when the movie is finishing.
This effect have to be make because is not a real entrance here, no hole exist on this part of the house, the real entrance is in the other side & did not work on the movie for wide shots.

Meat Composites

The Goal is to insert the monster's hand taking the meat just outside the entrance.


Here is how looks the originals Images to be composite, in the green screen is me with part of the custom taking a piece of meat I just bought in the supermarket.



This shot is how looks all the layers to get the final composite.



After correcting the color, mate extraction and hide details here almost the final composite.


This is the final composite, is not the good one because are missing some shadows but this give you an idea what I'm doing.

New monster parts


Well, some parts of the New Monster are here, top image are the FANGS that Cesar will use.
The Mask is a professional Foam Latex, just need to be paint it and GLUE it to Cesar's FACE.
We are waiting for other parts to arrive, probably will take a couple weeks, but, this week will rehearsal all the scenes for the monster, some are easy because the actor is not present, but the ones that the plates with the actor was recorded we need to film the monster like it was acting with the actor, this ones are the complicated ones, but, I'm confident because every thing will be recorded in front of the camera and the majority of the scenes will need little or nothing of post production just to edit them in the movie.
