Canister vs The Other Guy IN 3D
HD Video , 62 seconds, colour, 2012
With this video, I was testing the effectiveness of creating 3D from green screened 2D images. This is footage shot at the same time we were shooting the other video and stills for Canister. This this instance however, I convinced Erik Sirke to also put on a costume and fight me. William is running the camera, which explains the gestures at the beginning of the video as he was not clear to us whether or not the camera was rolling. Also unclear was who was supposed to win. While Canister is a villain, he is also the protagonist. The audio is ad libbed during the performance. I've added punch sound effects. The background is keyed in to the green screen. It is the University of Regina heating plant. The primary effect, if any, of the 3D is the separation between the fighters and the power plant. VIDEO
