My brother and I filmed a live action sequence of the Food Penguin to be REmixed however seen fit.

My brother will take the footage back to New York and edit it (ever so slightly) pretty much to clean-up any obviously unusable takes. However, it'll be REalised fairly RAW and in some instances (specific shot set-ups) where the camera rolls (or jump cuts) where I (portraying the "Food Penguin") do a few takes back-to-back trying out different things, taking direction from my brother, or just outright laughing.

We filmed a variety of different shots and inserts simply for options for potential REmixes and REsults.

There's still more to be added. For continuity sakes we specifically shot medium to close-ups to avoid the fact that I did not have white gloves (as seen in the over-the-shoulders of the original Food Penguin), as well we neglected other props such as the "eatplate containing the baby-bunny". Some of those inserts can be easily added by the talented members of hitRECord.

Other than that, we shot some cut-aways and complimentary shots to Triple-M and the Personette's POV of the "Morgan & Destiny" live action version. We also gave it a high contrast, blew out the background, and tried to match the style at least complimentary to the original video enough to be usable. The B&W and other style choices can of course be done in post by whomever REmixes the footage.

Hope it's usable, but either way, it was definitely a fun shoot!

RE: Food Penguin (Live Action) - COMING SOON
Des remarked on January 06, 2010

This SHOULD be coming soon.

It was supposed to be REleased about 3 times now (one coincidently coinciding with the RElease of V4), but things have come up.

The most recent hurdle was codec problems in the capture lab.

Tomorrow, tomorrow, I'm hoping, tomorrow
It's only a day away..

So yes, hopefully my brother will rent the same model of HD cameras that we shot the footage with and capture straight from the cameras themselves, that way there should be no further problems.

I apologise for tardiness of the Food Penguin footage, but like the director of hitRECord said himself, "Nothing ever seems to happen the way it's supposed to." Or something like that. I think I just paraphrased; a little lazy right now to cross-check his exact quote. Anyway.. food penguin.. live-action.. coming soon ;)
