A typewriter outdoor?

Twitters' like reading a thousand schizophrenic's ramblings tapped-out on on 500 broken typewriters-fucking despise it as well.

No - you can clearly see that the plane of sharpness and the depth of field give the illusion away (and confirm that the video is not fake) - especially for the baseball at 0:50-1:00 - it is clear that this is an image and not a 3D object. Just like you clearly can see if the glasses are real or not in the final shot.
Quite obvious that the shots with the changing focus aren't faked, especially if you're used to low DoF photography with fast lenses. The plane of sharpness do not follow the 3D shapes when focusing back and forth - the plane follows the still image on the table.

And of course they adjusted the exposure during the shot! They go back and forth from large apertures to small apertures - they had to change the shutter time and/or ISO.

You can also tell that the deepest shadows on the images never get quite dark enough - look at the shadow underneath the globe in the opening shot, versus the deeper blacks on the typewriter and sunglasses. This is easily seen in all the shots, if you know what to look for.
And, stuff like the edges of the papers under the glasses in the final shot - real objects do not have chromatic aberration with a red tint towards the corner of the image and a blue tint towards the centre of the image.

Nope - real.
Of course it isn't one take, but they did not use editing trickery - they do not swap out 3D objects for 2D ones or vice versa.

People, you all know who the VS trolls are. The stupidity they exhibit time and time again is only one level above "a thousand monkeys with typewriters". Accept the fact that there really are people that stupid, stop feeding them, and just put them on ignore.

A bad person with a typewriter can only be stopped by a good person with a typewriter.

Before they start it, if you listen close enough, you can hear all the monkeys on the typewriters in the next room.

not a dupe of http://videosift.com/video/The-musical-typewriter

Same song, different musician.

(Noted here to save others from looking)

I still think monkeys banging away on typewriters will reach Shakespeare faster than these two will.

Sure thing - it's a travesty that hasn't sifted yet. You know the old saying about million monkeys typing on a million typewriters? I think that's Videosift sometimes - the voting is basically random and every once in a while something of actual high quality gets sifted.

Thanks man!



LOL I feel ya. I just picked up bronze at my 4 year membership mark on account of my habitual lurking, but don't feel more privileged nor more highly visible. The cabal of top sifters have all the real influence.
