We’re a Go With Project GO

OSP — Tue, 29 Jun 2010 17:00:50 +0000

In May, October Skies Productions and Mixed Bag Media completed a video project for the ROTC’s Project GO scholarship program. The 3 minute video profile features Georgia Tech ROTC student Ross Neuhart, who spent time abroad studying the Russian language and culture.

Jon Milavec of Mixed Bag Media produced, filmed & edited the piece. Location and green screen shots were captured in High Definition video on the Georgia Tech campus. David Robinson of October Skies Productions completed all motion graphics and green screen compositing. Personal travel photos, stock photography and stock footage were all used to help tell the story of Ross’ life changing experience in the Project GO program.

The video is posted on Georgia Tech’s School of Modern Languages website, which can be viewed here. In an effort to reach thousands of ROTC students across the country, the video will be featured on the Project GO website as well.

More about the program from the Project GO website:

Project GO is a DoD-funded initiative bringing together the National Security Education Program, a dozen U.S. universities, the Defense Language Office, and all three services to promote global awareness and language proficiency among future military officers.

Green Screen Setup at October Skies Productions

In the past week we’ve been working on a great project involving green screen production and compositing for our good friends at Investor Wealth Network. Just wanted to share an image of our simple setup for filming the talking head for this project. We’ll post a final comp and a short video clip soon.

Also, this is our first project using the Sony EX-1R HD video camera. The camera performed way above our expectations. Thanks to Justin Webb of J. Clarke Productions for access to this incredible camera!

And remember, it doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg to produce and finish most green screen projects. Our rig is very portable too, which means in most cases, we can bring it to you!
