Our Studio was a HUGE waste of money - New Channel Launch!

Making a Gaming news channel is easy. The hard part is finding some space to shoot it. Despite buying a separate building for our Lab, we have precious little space for more sets. WE got Short Circuit, Mac Address, Techlinked, Tech Quickie and Linus Tech Tips competing for space, it is getting cramped in here. But with the magic of green screen, we can transport ourselves anywhere. But with the BlackMagic Ultimatte 12, we can also do it live instead of in post.

Purchases made through some store links may provide some compensation to Linus Media Group.

I can't wait to see what the community does with all these clips of Linus on a green screen

[lord_scrubington]

at this point LMG should just make a channel dedicated to talking about all their channels

[HeIsHarsh]

How to LAUNCH A CHANNEL but while making your normal video. This is genius. Kudos to writers 👍

[mikouffins]

Andy looking around in circles awkwardly while people are adjusting his digital hair is a whole mood.

[SHKAAL]

Being a VFX guy who works in keying and deals with LED walls all the time, it's amazing to see this high end film tech spilling out into other content production workflows. Keying is never easy, and this is a fantastic middleground - I wasn't aware of the ultimatte kit!

[Charl_JvR]

The green screen live compiler thingie is honestly so cool

[seangalloway]

Filian on LTT as an example was great. The editor is cultured.

[StealthSecrecy]

Nothing beats a real set, but that is crazy good performance for a green screen set!

[cupcakeobsession]

Cant believe how far Fillian has come to be featured on an LTT video! 🙌

[Rookie]

I'm sure if you guys rang up Corridor Crew you could EASILY commission them to build you a workflow surrounding this tech. The LMG staff could quickly pick up on this but Corridor has been using this kind of advancement in video production for their whole channel's life. If anything I just want a collab about everybody geeking out at having a hybrid virtual production setup.

[edusszfx]

As a VFX artist, I always wondered how they did this so well live! That's awesome!
Also, great to see LTT move into virtual production!

[digital]

as a vfx worker the detail on that is nuts, the hair definition and the refracted hand sanitizer and glasses is wild .. yea a cleaner green screen makes things easier but thats solid af. that would be so much work lol..

theres also a plugin for blender that does the camera data from your cell phone accelerometer

[janpawedwa]

There is no other channel, where behind the scenes kind of videos overlap so well with the regular content.

[BradyT]

Filian clip is at 12:41.

It's absolutely worth watching the entire video, though, to fully appreciate how much work Filian puts into her setup.

[OleJanssen]

One thing you should definitely consider is that if you have lights in a virtual background, you also need to have set lighting in roughly the same location, as the shadows on the actor would look unrealistic if it's just regular greenscreen lighting with lights in the virtual background.

[weirdg]

How in the world did Filian make it into an LTT video?! My worlds are colliding.

[Lagrangeify]

This is a banger of an episode. It's got that typical Willy Wonka chocolate factory tour energy that I've taken for granted the last 12 years of watching Linus' team productions. At this point traditional media can't possibly hope to compete - how things have changed.

[petrolhead]

Props to Andy for being an amazing NPC.

[babyzdog]

Props to andy for being the perfect npc during the greenscreen explanation 👏

[potatosordfighter]

Tom Scott did a whole game show based around this idea 2 years ago. It was called disconnected. It also used LED panels so that the actor could be accurately lit by the scene itself so they would blend in even more naturally.
