Create Your Own “Private Ryan” Movie Shot – Day 1

You don’t have to be Steven Spielberg, you don’t need millions of dollars, you don’t even need more than one actor to make your own war movie (well, one shot anyway).
In this two day tutorial series, Michal will show you how to create a realistic war movie shot using only one actor and a camera man.
Day 1 will show you: Color correction, realistic camera shake, and bullets hitting the ground on fast footage.
These are just pointers to lead you on your track to making convincing war movie visual effects.
3… 2… 1… FIRE!

I'm interested in all aspects of moviemaking: shooting, mixing and camera operating, starting from when the Matrix was released. For 3 years I've been recording some funny, amateur stuff. Now the time has come for more serious work: time for compositing and adding video effects!

    I człowiek żyje w przeświadczeniu, że w Polsce nie da się zrobić dobrego filmu wojennego… dlaczego? Bo nawet jak ktoś potrafi to się chwali za granicą.
    Bardzo ciekawy tutorial.

    I loved your tutorial! I will use it for my own WWII movie, Thank you very much!

    One thing though, It would be a little better if I was able to download your footages, so i could start practising.

    Thanks,

    WOW! Great work Mike. This just saved me thousands of dollars. Instead of hiring a pyrotechnic crew of three, and materials for squibs, I can hire an intern for cheap.
