Nothing like a group of friends huddled around a mic with having a few beers and dubbing each others voices and making funny sound effects. Not only did it fix the problem, it was damn fun to do. Our sound guy Connor made the suggestion of ADR (Automated Dialog Replacement) and what a great one it was. It was seeing Scott’s mouth move, but no sound coming out. But, as rough cuts came to head, something felt weird. The original plan was to fit the toast into a montage somewhere. In one scene, our creative director, Scott, gives a toast. What I didn’t account for was the need to record dialog on set. And as the first ‘taters fly, all hell would break loose. I knew that I wanted to start the reel with a group of cheesy characters sitting down to a “classy dinner”. Having worked with Massif Studios in the past, they were excited to host our “family dinner.” Also, what could be better that a piece of cake flying against a pristine white wall. Lighting would be much simpler, and cleanup would be easy. So it wasn’t a huge surprise that no-one in the Lumenati community eagerly volunteered their home to get smeared with mashed potatoes. Where would we do it? If we learned anything from our taco and ice cream videos, it was that this was going to get messy. Thus sparked the idea of a Holiday themed food fight. Two of the most iconic food fights in cinema history came to mind, Animal House and Hook. Since over cranked food to the face seemed a common theme of 2015, naturally our reel needed the same elements. Only the second time, we partnered with Ice Cream Riot, and tried to catch their delicious products.įlash forward six months, we had holiday food on our minds, and a need to create a new demo reel. We had so much fun, we decided to do it again. Inspired by this hilarious video, we decided to pay homage with our own version, Fiesta Friday.
