After all the effort we went through of casting the first time round it seems silly to go through all that effort again for a quick shot where the face doesn't necessarily have to be seen. So for this lightning shot I decided to dress up as an old man to get blown to smithereens by a bolt of lightning. I think the shot works really well. Certainly better than the video copilot tutorial, the elements that gave it the edge, are subtle things like; the fine rain, the umbrella, the car in the background and the piece of meat composited to look like a fleshy mess. Anyway the point of this post is to say I've been hiring costumes again, it was only around £10 which along with a bit of time I'm prepared to spend to create a shot like this.
