Building out the Balmer's Peak Bar (Behind-The-Scenes)

Balmer's Peak is the bar in I/O that Coffeezilla frequents, and as such we visit there a lot. So I went from wanting to just do a simple green screen table, to realizing that making a practical set prop would be much simpler to film on. Keying a greenscreen that I'm touching is just too painful. Enjoy this short breakdown of how we made this cool little prop. Shoutout to Chris Demarco for building this. It was a perfect match of what we did and looks great. Our bar design was originally inspired by the Shining, and we achieved that beautiful underglow look with an Amaran T4C.

By the way, this might seem like something small, and in many ways... it is. But these little improvements are what eventually makes all the difference, in my opinion. So I'm just tirelessly attacking our set, trying to improve it bit by bit. 

Thank you for your support, we're hard at work on a new 40+min investigation, just wanted this to tie everyone over until that drops!

Don't turn into Jack, though.

New potential scam, is this new crypto called ‘Monkeys’ that’s claiming to be behind Elon Musk’s watch list on Twitter a scam or is it actually associated with Musk ?

There are quite a lot of those on YT...

Do you think do a video on the REAL OG Ponzi scheme, the one where they get their name, the scheme perpetrated by a name know as Charles Ponzi. investopedia.com/who-is-charles-ponzi-5216783

Out of the suit and framing Coffee looks so short. It might just be all the green throwing off my brain but its messing with me

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy 🤣, great movie 👌🏻

Gary Woodhead

I wish there was some way we could tell what time of day this was filmed.

Ross Vincent

Appreciate all the hard work, man. You’ve saved me a lot of money exposing these scammers. Lessons have been learned, thankfully.

I did not know you shouldn't touch greenscreen props but it makes sense now. I usually don't look too close at effects like that but I think it's great you're trying to make it look as good as possible

The set is great as it is, when it shows up you never know what's hiding in corners, lol.
