- Inspired by Peter Kuran's work in creating the title for 'The Thing' in 1982, Tommy and JP show you how to create this gorgeous title effect for yourself.
Don't forget your respirators!

Thanks so much for all the lovely comments and support! If you have any other classic effects you'd like us to recreate let us know!
great job man! I have a feeling this channel is going to blow up one day!
I’d love to see you guys recreate the terrifying intro to 80s CBBC programme Chocky th-cam.com/video/e3ztIDFU2P8/w-d-xo.html
Old school 3D logos like the 1980s HBO intro!
What a great channel. I might as well suggest.
Could you replicate Back to the Future 2's flying cars, as it was in '89?
I know the really deep details of how they did it but I really wanna see the process in action.
Recreate the "Hell Sky" effect as seen in Ghostbusters and Childs Play. From memory the FX crew would put dye and flour into water and film it in slow motion then superimpose it on to the sky of the shot?
Great video guys!
Hi there! I actually did this effect for "The Thing" back in 1982. I used a large fish tank to contain the smoke, instead of filling the room full of smoke (and chasing everyone out of the building). I did use garbage bag plastic, but I stretched it over a frame and positioned it with a c-stand. As you can see, the fire could get out of control and you don't want to attach it to a flat or something that could catch fire. Also, I remember using a 1K light for the source. I made the title with a cel and black paint and attached it to the back of the fish tank. -Pete Kuran
Mr Kuran!...so honoured to have you with us and comment on our video. Yes, we went about things in a fairly dubious way (before we invested in a Fishtank etc) but we did ensure that enough fire extinguishers were standing by! We are huge fans of your work and it is safe to say that you are one of a select few who have inspired us to create our TH-cam channel and celebrate some great practical effects, as well as hopefully inspire newer filmmakers to look at practical and in-camera solutions for their projects. Best wishes!
Hello Mr. Kuran. I love the effect of the title burning onto the screen. I was thinking of doing the same thing for the symbol of human transmutation from Fullmetal Alchemist, except using red lighting.
Are you actually fucking kidding me. atomcentral, one of the powerhouses of restored nuclear test footage on TH-cam, also did this effect on The Thing. What a small world.
I just saw your interview "I gave them a price that I thought would be too high... Yeah I was quarter of the price (of Cameron)" that made me laugh. Thank you so much for your art!
🔥🔥🔥it is an actually blessing to know you still well and alive to part of this. My favorite film at all time
Warning for everyone else out there: When burning plastics (or basically anything other than wood), wear a respirator!
hmmm those healthy burning wood fumes. its a nature product cant be bad. gonna light another log in my room.
@@gg-qj3gc Personally I like the smell of Oleander and Mexican Elders. They're so good that afterwords I feel as though I had a near-death experience. Quite exquisite.
i'd agree that second take was perfect. right up through the middle and then reveal the full word.
Thanks! Yeah we knew straight away when we saw it that it was a good take!
This looks so much more satisfying to build than do it using CGI
Oh yes, the practical approach is extremely rewarding!
This was just brilliant and helpfull. Need more tutorials from you guys for an aspiring filmmaker like me.
Thanks Anosh! And don't worry, there's plenty more where that came from :D
This is my new favorite channel!!!!
You sent me here.
The time it takes to do it right will always be worth it! A classic done right here. Love it!
Thanks so much! We're super happy with how it turned out!
This was cool!
cool as always heh
you're cool too, just here to remind you :)
That's awesome dudes!!
Thanks guys, glad you liked it!
your character has an uncanny familiarity with so many actors I love it's very comforting
Benedict Cumberbatch and Simon Pegg morphed into one
I honestly love the second one, because the fire races up so quickly to reveal the “The” before the rest of it. Very cinematic.
What a great idea for a series. I see lots of movie shows talk about stuff like this, but its much more interesting to see people actually show you how its done.
I've still got a rad scar on my finger form a burning wiz zipper when I was a kid. Ahhhh the memories. awesome vid guys.
Wow. I just discovered your channel and am blown away. About to binge EVERYTHING.
Enjoy your binging session Adam! Plenty more content like it to come! Glad to have you onboard for the ride!
dudes this is awesome, cant wait to see more of what you guys have to offer
Having read that Art of the TItle article I've always wanted to give it a go myself. Nice to see someone actually do it.
It doesn't get much better than this!! TEN ON TEN!
Already one of my favorite youtube channels
Too kind!
I had never even heard of your channel but seeing how you guys are dedicated to practical effects earned you a new subscriber. So many modern film tutorial channels are all about CGI now. It's great to see likeminded filmmakers dedicated to the art of practical.
Amazing! Love it guys. Can't wait for more.
Amazing effort! Fascinating and entertaining to watch. Keep it up, InCamera!
Really enjoyed this! Looking forward to future episodes
Great stuff. Can't wait to see what you produce in future.
And as you asked for practical effect requests - the AT-ST walker head being crushed by logs (released by the Ewoks) from Return of the Jedi. If memory serves they metal coated the plastic model, used acid to eat away the plastic core leaving a perfect metal shell, then hit it with 2 model logs filled with lead. It crushed perfectly.
Wow! I recall that being a tricky one to achieve. But we love a challenge! Thanks for the suggestion!
Already one of my fav channel. Need more of special effects tutorial. It feelt like watching mythbusters back in the days but here we can recreate the effect :)
Thank you so much for this channel! Keep the videos coming please. Practical effects FTY!
Nice work team. Really enjoyed the episode and the final result was excellent. More!!!!
Thanks Trevor!
I have wanted to see this for years. Great channel! Subscribed.
Instructive, but also good fun. Very watchable!
I thought I was the only one who tried this and upload it. VERY awesome! I subbed
That was really well done. The Thing is one of my favourite films and that opening sequence is legendary - you did a great job re-creating it :-)
Really wonderful work, and we're looking forward to seeing the planet effect!
Wonderful! 👏
AWESOMMEEEE!! I’m excited for more!
Thanks Simon!
So glad I subscribed, this was great, excited for the other episodes!
Thank you, Martin, really great to hear. Let us know if there is anything, in particular, you'd like us to make an episode about.
Great and insightful show, can't wait for more!
Thanks very much, Noah! Do let us know if there is anything, in particular, you want us to demonstrate in a future episode.
This was fantastic. Favorite new channel! Can’t wait to see what else you come up with!
Thanks dud! Glad to have you onboard and that you're loving the channel! Make sure to check out our other videos!
Great video, loved it!! 😊
Thanks for the support Bronte 😀
You should definitely attempt to recreate the stormy clouds seen in The NeverEnding Story. I think they used different types of dye and grease paints in a fish tank.
Yes! We've got a pretty big water tank and have begun experimenting :D
Great job guys, was nice to see a homage to Carpenters nod to the original opening from the 1951 move The Thing From Another Word
I know I’m gonna love this channel!!!!!!
This blew me away. I have to watch all of your videos. I need more.
Wow, thanks Timmy! Glad you're loving the channel
Brilliant! Loved it guys.
Thanks Paul! Massive relief just to get the first one up and out there. Already looking forward to showing everyone more - the support and positive comments so far have been genuinely humbling. Very glad to be here. (P)
This is the most underrated channel
Awesome 👏
Great job guys! Thank you for doing this. Hope you continue with this videos
Fantastic!
Interesting to note that Carpenter's intro is itself a recreation of the titlecard to Howard Hawks' original The Thing from Another World, which appears to me to be a time lapse of melting wax maybe
That’s what I was about to state.
This is freakin awesome dudes! I'm definitely gonna have to check out more of your stuff!!
That was amazing, well done. 🔥⬛️
I have watched one minute of this video and I have determined that this is the best channel on TH-cam.
Well, that is quite the compliment Alex, thank you! Is there anything, in particular, you want us to recreate in the future?
This is beautiful work! You guys deserve so much more attention and appreciation. Subscribed!
Amazing! Really interesting and fun to watch.
Thanks Nagea!
Awesome. Interesting looking stuff with the planets.
Brilliant!
Epic work!
Brilliant work !!! It makes fun to see it .🎥🎬🎞👍😂😂🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁
Thanks dude, glad you enjoyed it!
Really awesome channel, I'm excited to see more! Keep it up!
Thanks for the support Zach, do let us know if there is anything in particular you'd like to see.
That turned out looking so sick!! Fantastic job!
Brilliant, glad you liked it!
Excellent work guys, really interesting and fun to watch, we look forward to seeing more from the team. The Thing is one of our all-time favourite horrors too.
Great stuff, love it!
Thanks so much for the support!
Accidentally came across this when I was revisiting the subject of this and you guys nailed it!)) my favorite horror film.
Love it!
Bring practical effects back!!! Love this kind of stuff. Thanks for sharing just found you
Pratical effects are great, with hard work you can make something look better than CGI.
It's so simple yet so memorable and effective
Very cool!
Thanks Dan!
It's so cool to see the title in HD!
This is amazing. I have a short film I shot last year and I wanted to do this for the intro. At the time I couldn’t find a video explaining it well. Randomly decided to check today and found this video. So stoked. Thanks!
Oh brilliant, I hope the intro turned out well for you! Glad our tutorial could help!
Saw you guys on Reddit, this is my new favorite thing ever.
Well thanks, Joey! Welcome!
Just discovered your channel. This was so well done and informational. Hoping to see more great content and watching your channel grow!
Thanks so much Amy! Glad to have you onboard!
Love your videos. The ending where Tommy comes out puffing smoke is hilarious
haha thanks John, glad you enjoyed it!
Nice! I wish I still had my old 1986 VHS TV premier recording, that had it as the ad buffers for every break.
Back lit graphics (rediscovered today digitally with the Stranger Things look) was how I made money as a college student in the mid-80's. Instead of vinyl stickers, you'd get a high resolution Kodalith negative film made from your black and white artwork, which was clear in the white area, solid black in the dark. Far nicer (more dense) than the digital transparencies you get today. For smoke effects we'd use a large aquarium between the camera and graphic, filled with smoke. I remember doing a "Bonanza" style burn through on some artwork for a local car dealership using very similar techniques!
This was aaaaaawesome!
Much appreciated Max, thanks for the support.
Just brilliant guys !!
Thank you Dave!
Just found this channel. HUGE SUPPORTER so far. Easily becomes one of my favorite TH-camrs! Would love to see items used in the description with future videos
Thanks Zach! Yes we will start including the kit and stuff we used in the descriptions. Keep an eye out as we'll no doubt be updating the descriptions soon :)
Impressive! Most impressive!
love the thing great pracitcal fx vid !
Thanks!
I waited for this first episode and I'm not disappointed. I already knew this effect, but it's always cool to see someone applying the technique. I can't wait for the next one because I'm work on a Science fiction/Horror short for Halloween and I need inspiration.
That's great to hear Loki, and best of luck with your short film!
@@InCameraTV I think the hardest part will be shooting the spaceship in space TT
So awesome! Saw your post on reddit! Really looking forward to more videos!!
This was so satisfying to watch!
Thank you! Glad you liked it
One of my favourite films and this was just brilliant to watch the techniques that go into these opening titles. We have to do something funky on the next film ;-)
Great work guys.
Thank you, much appreciated!
Bloody hell, this is top quality content, subbed!
Thanks Ethan, glad to have you on board!
That is fantastic guys , decided to do the same for my Chanel logo , and just found this vid , very helpful!
That's brilliant Nathan, glad our videos have helped! Make sure to check out our 'Volumetric Logos' video for more examples of how to create logos like this
Amazing job! This is one of my favorite movies of all time and also one of my favorite title sequences ever. BTW I love your Japanese GITS shirt. I have a Japanese bootleg The Thing shirt :D
Really good video. Subscribed instantly.
Iv only watched a few minutes of this video and YOU sir have earned my subscription!!! :)
This was fantastic! Well done fellas,you nailed it!
Thanks Michael!
Great to see old style effects being done even if just for nostalgia - I had a longtime subscription seeing this kind of stuff in Cinefex but let it lapse in the 1990s when CGI started to take over.
This is so great. Going to share with all my students :)
Thanks Freya! So glad you liked it :)
This technique is still being used.
The Windows 10 Hero logo was basically a painted glass that they shot some light through.
TH-cam has the behind-the-scenes video of how they made the logo titled "Windows 10 Hero Desktop Image - Behind the Scenes."
Check it out!
Nice! We've got another episode coming up where we show how this effect can be used more broadly :)
@@InCameraTV I can't wait.
This is so satisfying to me. I tried to do this about 20 years ago when I first heard this is how they did it. I was using a SD DV camera and it completely didn't work.
~Trav
Perfection
You are too kind sir, thank you 😊 let us know what other effects you'd like to see
It's crazy how its easier and cheaper to do these things digitally nowadays... lol that's insane to me!
If you already have a computer, it's easier to download a program and practice a bit, than buy materials and lights and build a setup... etc.
That said... the real thing always feels better. Even if it looks just as good, a digital copy never quite feels right. Our brains just know.
The Practical vs CGI debate is one we've spoken about a lot; each have there pros and cons, but you're right - you just can't beat the real thing!
Superb 👍👍
Well done guys
I subscribed 👍👍
Good stuff!
Thank you! It's a very interesting video.
Glad you liked it!
How does this channel not have more subs? Seriously, people are missing out!
Fuck, this is the most excited I've been finding a new channel in forever. Cant wait to see more stuff from you guys!
