S04E01 Super Nintendo

Here you go Dudes and Dudettes! The first three scenes of S04E01! Let me know what ya think!

As you can see this is already over typical AVG episode length (about 4 minutes) but there is quite a bit more to go, including that slam dunk scene you saw earlier, and an unboxing of the system!

PRODUCTION NOTES

This is still in rough form! Lots of color work and sound work yet to be done. 

1. Obviously steam coming out of that pipe needs to be added as a special effect. This sound effect there will be replaced (literally me hissing into the microphone!).

2. Seguays and a new season intro needs to be animated (which I have been working on as a side project adding to the slowness of this post work).

3. Lots of sound effects will be added for comedic effect. Especially those 8-bit sounds you heard a lot of in season 3.

4. Still have to add film effects and projector sound effect to Dad’s flashback. Will probably have to bring that over to PC because I have not been able to get a cleaner chroma-key on the iPad.

5. Color grading is still in early stages. Saturation may be too aggressive for some devices. If you view this on an iOS device you will see it close to how I intend the final product to look. However a big part of grading is testing the shots on many screens and finding an overall tone that works across different gamma settings.

6.  I am also toying with a custom digital make up filter I have hacked together in Lumafusion. You can see one of those shots on the Dad close-up as he says “Anything’s possible”. I think digital makeup will more likely be used on the boys for their closeups since we are trying to maintain that youthful look in them and the guys, well, they got older since we started this show.

I haven't watched any of these early cuts because I feel it ruins the experience of watching a completed episode. As long as there's the occasional update on the show's status, I'm happy.

Prizm

You guys will all be seeing completed episodes long before the public.

Looking good! Any idea on when the completed episodes will start dropping? Hoping for later this year.

The color is not right. It feels like you put some sort of glow effect on the footage. Other than that I'm hyped though. I hope you'll be able to fix the color grading, that sort of stuff is a pain in the ass.

Wait... Dad's suit, the tinkering, the backstory... Either this whole Dad thing is a huge red herring or... Guess I have to wait and see! If I had to be picky about something though, I think the skin tones are a bit off, a bit flat. To be fair, I didn't notice it on my first viewing, only after you mentioned about the color grading still in progress. Or is it to cover possible over exposition? If so, I'd personally tone it down.

That was great! Catches the feeling of the old episodes perfectly but also somehow feels very fresh. Got some good chuckles out of me! :D

Also, how did you get that fucking ladder into that tiny room??

Chewie, we're home!, Almost.

Cant wait to see more :)

Wow i love it!!! They got back into character so amazingly well. I was practically giggling all the way through haha writing is on point and looks like we are getting even more dad this season haha
