Building A Film Set From Start To Finish

"eye of the GNARwhal" is a segment that takes you a little deeper into my life. I have been filming random shenanigans since I was in 8th grade and there is a lot of stuff that I think is interesting and good content, but doesn't necessarily fall under the criteria of a viral video. These are those videos that I think you subscribers will still enjoy. It may sometimes be in a vlog style, it may be an action sports or high adventure edit, it could very possibly be a compilation of random crap, but no matter what they'll be here, waiting for your view.

The amount of work these people have to do in making such beautiful sets especially for bigggg movie sets omg they deserve the praise ❤️😁

[@stonedcommander]

Fantastic job...It all came together so nicely...Beautiful work:)

[@StrankensteinsMonsters]

Thanks for filming this! Always been fascinated with the process. I have the artistic skills, but lack the construction know-how.

[@scottwoodings]

Wow!! Very amazing guys. How it started then ended is fantastic. Looks like you could just move in and live there. Great job.

[@rickluque6429]

WOW!!!! Amazing work. Nicely done everyone.👍👍. Thank You for sharing your video. 🙏🏼

[@sdjohnsononyoutube]

And that was awesome. Great commitment & work.

[@DowneastThunderCreations]

I enjoyed this video. I've been recently commissioned to build some props for a local play, and I've been thinking about getting more involved in the process of set building. I thought about building an inventory of flats & other props, buying a box truck, and leasing them out to local theater production companies. I've been watching several videos on KZbin to gain more perspective, and I'm planning on volunteering at a local non-profit theater to gain some experience at erecting sets, etc. Your video was fun to watch and provided a bit of inspiration. Thanks!

[@djkirkdigglerusn5476]

Thanks for filming this. Wish I would have knew about this in my younger years when I was into capentry

[@bobbyhavender509]

Thanks for sharing this! I always wanted to know how film sets are made.

[@floydlooney6837]

The finished set is amazing.

[@dellcomputeification]

WoW!!!! Beautiful

[@neilsmith9006]

This looks incredible. What film was this set constructed for?

[@judichristopher4604]

Still waiting for an answer...

[@SimplyHandmade]

Wow that’s so incredible!!

[@richiexp2]

INCREDIBLE!!

[@pop-punkreptile5827]

dude this looks like galavant or something, awesome stuff

[@frumkinariel]

beutiful work! just for knowledge-The Jerusalem houses were built only from limestone (white-yellow) and the windows and doors had a bow on top

[@philrabe910]

Agreed, It's nice work but not representative of any particular age /style of building. I'd guess a young art director who didn't do a lot of book or field research. Very 'Disney' looking [tho those guys do Heavy research]. Still, pretty tho. I design children's museum exhibits and my anthropologist won't allow 'scenic touches' that aren't part of the target milieu.

[@starbrand3726]

Great video. I really enjoyed watching the process, but really wish I knew what movie this was seen in.

[@afromanga2]

amazing, good job

[@shelby9255]

WOW! That is incredible guys! And Lauren, you're beautiful! lol

[@shortfilmguy6295]

Totally awesome!!! If I were to build a studio to build future sets like this, what would the total dimensions of the studio need to be?

[@jesstv888]

that was beautiful

[@jilliangaffney9710]

I wish I knew what the song was called because I like it but it’s great video and great construction working.

[@redshield5858]

Awesome mate! :D I'd love to get a job making sets and props, it would be a dream! :3 insistently, to cover the walls where the foam blocks were not, were you guys just covering them in mud? :)

[@deejayblacksnow26]

So impressive

[@iamkentrrize]

The creativity god gave us 🥺🔥

[@shamainshamain5021]

Hmm lovely set

[@amhater]

Nice work

[@GoTellJesusSaves]

Quite ironic. Usually buildings are built to keep the outside out. Looks good y'all

[@Hank254]

I love how the screw gun sits on the floor through most of the video :)

[@phoeniciacloud1515]

great video

[@HunterMann]

This is fascinating and I enjoyed it but… as a location scout I can tell you that I could’ve found them an existing location in eastern California or the desert of the southwest and saved them a lot of work. Sorry if I offended any of you who have made your careers in stage craft whether it’s the theater or film, I love soundstages and what can be done on them but there’s nothing quite like a real location. Do I build sets for my films? Yes but only as a last resort desperate effort, but it never occurs to me to do it that way the first time unless I am unable to control climate or sound issues.

[@larrykellyiii1680]

wowww

[@majuki2]

Dude great video i can use some parts of this as a footage?

[@SawyerFouts]

How durable is that foam once it is painted with that mud?

[@TobiLA]

Amazing! :) I wish, I could make a video on such a real film set! *-*

[@kenton6363]

i wish I could do this :/ I also wish I had actors..

[@filmclubbers3783]

Anyone know how I can make a set of a hill with a lot of water flowing down it?

[@TamikaJack]

nice job, not just time but finance

[@FamReaction]

how much did it cost to build that set ??? :O im curious cuz i need a film set someday.- so what would this cost ??

[@alfopiano1496]

I'm a framer carpenter from new England, just moved to Arizona. How hard is it to land a job in la doing sets like this?

[@PrettyLady7282]

super!!!!

[@noma6214]

Wow

[@MultiBassman91]

nice job, how do you get into making movie sets?

[@TheSarakania]

because this comment is five years old, i'd like to know, if you have any anwsers? :D

[@burneraccount5559]

I just got a job as a tv show set painter and honestly it was all luck I just knew the right people and was able to get in that way

[@arcadealchemist]

This is something I need to learn lol

[@magicbuskey]

What is the white building material?

[@robbydevillez4635]

how much did it cost to build this set?

[@framebyframe7035]

Pro Tip #33 - Mute video and play your own music

[@thewhatorwhy]

What, you mean you don't like indie elevator music?

[@Skelly5962]

Frame by Frame Yeah, it's pretty obnoxious.

[@Nelsonrtreat]

Great wavy cam work. I thought I was going to be sea sick at one point.

[@katshaffer7516]

How much did it cost to make?

[@hamachinasan]

what is the blowtorch used for?

[@ginger2770]

It melts the polystyrene and adds a rougher, brick like texture to the foam.

[@Avidcomp]

4 dislikes? What's to dislike. This is wonderful.

[@FrightFX]

I think it's the quick camera movement, really hard to focus on anything.

[@brandonbiasproductions5959]

how much was this set?

[@jo_elb]

how much did it cost to pull all of that off?

[@bobby0411]

J&J's Comedy Show 1,000,000 dollars 💯😁

[@JustWill6969]

How much this cost to make?

[@shamainshamain5021]

Wt set is dat?

[@noenaem1389]

Very nice, however you people should get a Shop-Vac! :D

[@philrabe910]

I've done a huge amount of foam carving for TV and film sets. A shop vac in the early clean-up stages is a disaster. The exhaust blows the styro dust up into the air and all around. Manual is the way for the bulk clean up, the idea is to keep the dust down. I was super surprised they allow open flame to do the foam distressing! WOW that was a little hair raising.

[@noenaem1389]

Haha, yeah.

[@osvaldogonzalez1665]

what song is playing?

[@RubenAleman530]

Gorgio Baldi it's called bridges

[@chrisgriffith1573]

Look at this... no, look at this... NO,noo.. that! No- over here! Look-look-look-look!

[@surajitdas3806]

Sir i want to join in your group ....m also an artist from westbengal

[@dailysentinal354]

5 days and what 10 thousand dollars just to build one small set

[@kennethanthony7125]

Great work by the set builders. Not so great work by the videographer. "Sweep it up" technique and shaky-cam. Maybe I am too old school...

[@creepybunny255]

Looks like panning a camera at a good speed is too hard for you too...

[@sidestreetvideoproduction7278]

Very interesting, but slow down the camera movement. I couldn't see anything, it went by so fast. It made me sick to watch all the fast camera movement. I would really like to have seen the detail on the work.

[@serratravels]

What is that white thing??

[@TearitoffE]

you got to have millions to have a set like that? lol im just guessing

[@richardlechinois8236]

you move to fast whit camera

[@HLLeRoy]

Sure wish you wouldn't jerk the camera around. Hard to see the process.

[@charlemarcharlemar2401]

If your movie is anytime like your camera work .......give us all a break and quit now.

[@robertbascelli6433]

My Hair is out of control. Really dude?. Be a man.

[@freedomofexpression9217]

I really hate the music. I watched this cuz i wanted to know what goes on and there was no commentary. if i want to listen to music then i'll go watch a music video

[@timd5130]

Why play the crappy music?

[@petea2485]

Terrible camera work
