      I think this is the "boon and curse" of having second channel - their profiles get much more narrow and the main one usually ends up being more *flashy* and *showy*, while the secondary becomes more causal, relaxed but at the same time more in-depth. I don't think it is a mistake on the creators' part, they just needs to understand this will inevitably happen when they start the second channel and be cool with it.

    One of the things that's stuck with me most about this team is their unashamed love for what they're doing. They're all just fully committed and loving their craft, plain and simple. It reminds me of the intuitive hands-on MacGyver approach of Jaws or Star Wars - just a bunch of nerds loving what they're doing and wanting to make it as best as it can be. Thanks for bringing this awesome team of genuine engineer-artists to our attention Gav!

    Fun video! I am surprised they didn't pull the table cloth directly down (using a smooth bar that it could slide around) the way people do it with manual pulls. That prevents the table cloth from billowing the way it does here.

      In the end, the trick failed because the knife fell. A downwards pull would have saved that knife, but I suppose having a robot pulling that close is also disastrous.

    As fun as it is, I've worked as a key grip on many projects. One of the big challenges is to come up with solutions that are not only repeatable, but as simple as possible. When I saw the pneumatic cylinder I got a bit angry because it was over complicated. You can tell it's not great because they had to add linear rails to keep it from binding up. My solution? Again, ropes and pulleys are great. That was my first instinct. But I would've had a large weight drop from the ceiling to give the pull. I also would've set it up so the point it is pulled from is exactly level with the table. This solution could easily be triggered electronically, be quicker to build, be quieter and use less energy. However, the old saying "get the shot" applies. Did the shot get achieved? Yes. So their solution is perfectly acceptable. But if they wish to hire me for future endeavors, I'm around. 😂 Keep up the great work all!

  • @Osmone_Everony

    It always blows my mind when I see so much effort put into a scene which is just one or two seconds in the final cut. No wonder movie production is so expensive.

  • @HenryLoenwind
    @HenryLoenwind 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    To allow the puller to pick up speed, bridge a section of the rope with a weak rubber band. The band will keep it tensioned. If it transfers too much movement before the rope is tight, you can use a sliding lock instead. Simplest is to split the rope into two, have a loop in one half and a stopper that's bigger than the loop in the other. This, however, needs more planning and some supports to keep the rope to the table tensioned with the rope's weight.
    Also, some teflon tape under the heavy objects can help with the load on the cloth. It also allows those objects to slide on the bare table after the cloth is gone, so it's a bit of a balancing act. For a perfect result you may need to cheat. Teflon tape to reduce friction to the cloth and magnets under the table top to keep objects in place...
