The two-strip effect looks good, and the video was amusing. Good work.

Very cool, very cool indeed. I love the bit with the Hollywood(land) sign, was that the actual sign, or was the whole thing comped in?
Re: 1949: A Sign of the Times
Man, that Carolyn Siegel looks good in glorious Omnicolor. Just supposin!

The whole sign is CG, and about twice the size it should be from this distance. (It works pretty well, because that's pretty much what the hill would look like if you were twice as close to it. We just...weren't twice as close to it.) The company logo is CG, the WB tower was added last minute, the DC-3 is CG. The two-strip is obviously a complicated lil' effect.
And Beldar, boy oh boy do I agree, wowzers, etc..

Wait, you didn't just go down and shoot the WB tower? It's right down the street...

The WB tower is in Burbank. We had one hour to do everything, and everything includes filming in three locations.
Read: means finding parking and filming in three locations.

Holy Shit, Teague has lines! And that plane is so fucked.
Anyway, very cool to see a comparison.

I did! Adam wrote them and everything. I didn't intentionally cut them out, but the mic she was talking into didn't pick them up very well, and I chose not to add them back in.
And is fucked good? I never know these things.

Fucked as in unless the runway is literally right behind you, Lana Baxter would have had much more interesting things to report on. And even then, I'm still doubtful.
Also, I thought the mic picked up your lines fine.

Re: 1949: A Sign of the Times
The audio in the comparison video is off the camera, the audio in the short is off the unit she's holding. You can't hear me in that.
And yeah, plane fucked.

Ah, I see. Out of curiosity, what's your line as the plane flies over? I can't hear it over the noise.

Finally got a chance to check this out, and nicely done gents...and lady.
Plane looks awesome, not much I can really comment on (Especially considering the time constraints), but the sign just wasn't working for me. The letters felt way to light and didn't really look like they were falling properly, and the sound effect you guys used was way too flimsy and loud, to actually sound like it was coming from the letters. If you absolutely wanted to make the letters sound that ridiculously loud a very echoes would have helped sell it.
Otherwise, love the 2-strip...(still need to play with that) and I love the concept. Well done.
