Ghostbusters Ghost Effect

[@elstoggy]

Emily is an amazing actor. It's amazing to see how her acting has improved over time, and I've been here long enough to no that.

[@strikerite]

That opening skit was probably one of the best things I've seen in a long time.

[@filmriot]

Thanks!

[@abisz007007]

if this is the level of quality you wanted to bring back again to Film Riot...than hats off...hats off

[@filmriot]

Glad you dug it. Thanks for watching. :)

[@AdamSheldonFilm]

Areis' slow backing out of the room was one of the funniest sketch moments for a long time! Loved it.

[@filmriot]

+Adam Sheldon Thanks man. Jokes like that are always risky. Some get it and some don't. Glad you did. :)

[@geffects1141]

In 2021 Still watching this golden channel🙏

[@samgraef3028]

Love this video! I've been here since 2013 Film Riot and these more recent videos have reminded me so much of old school Film Riot, and I love that! I've been missing the sketches so much and they feel like how they did before but with more professionalism behind them! Great episode!

[@AlexanderGerliczy]

Emily is always the best characters in all of these skits. Love it when Emily is in the videos!

[@expeditionfilms1]

"Joooosh.... Why aren't you moving?" xD best line

[@mrguiles]

My students and I laughed SO HARD on the "long awkward exit" portion of the video. SO. FUNNY. Comedic timing was killer. The SILENCE was hilarious. Great idea (or non-idea?)

[@RobbieSkaff]

"Who you gonna call, no I did call someone" - GREAT haha

[@MexieMex]

Better joke than any in the trailers for the new Ghostbusters.

[@RobbieSkaff]

+Mexie Mex true

[@rererere96]

That girl really has grown up, omg

[@Joemamagaywsf]

+West Productions how old is she now geez

[@arwensweet7180]

IKR!

[@alessandrazj]

Renan Martins Alves 😞😞😞👑🎉❤️😅🤗😎👻👍👎💋

[@MARTYSINCLAIR]

Amazing, Loved the effect! Started watching 5 years ago and haven't missed an episode! 10/10

[@jaylewis2611]

I was impressed by the originality behind the creation of the opening skit. Happy to see you guys following up on your promise of making an effort to improve the content quality of the show!

[@ViperChief117]

This is better than Ghostbusters 2016

[@duckduckduck07]

Your ghost is better made than the ghost in the new ghostbusters.

[@channeldeitz717]

stop kissing ass

[@madcowrebel4216]

+channel Deitz relax.

[@gillianday4804]

Ghost effects is so GENIUS!

[@JacobCarlson]

I was hoping we'd look back to see ghost Josh in the hallway. Awesome effect!

[@stephenbloom2058]

btw...welcome back to what I loved you guys did for us! humor and education.... keep it up...we'll be with you forever!

[@EmpyreanLightASMR]

Just looking for a tutorial but the whole opening thing was so funny, that humor is right up my alley hahaha

[@JurassicFilmsCo]

I think we can honestly say, after a few weeks testing; FilmRiot - you're back to (and beyond) your former awesomeness!

[@VernardNuncioFields]

LOL!!! That face Emily makes is one that says, "Really? Just get out." *Real Tears*

[@Chalky.]

I like the professional movie type videos you're doing but i can see those sort of scenes just about anywhere, and honestly i come here for these type of videos.

[@iamRayRagin]

Loved the Tie-In with Variant's "Evolution of Ghostbusters" Episode! Now that's good writing and continuity... lol

[@WizardBlobMovies1234]

I swear, Emily is my favourite Film Riot person

[@joshnullentry4580]

Still better than the actual ghostbusters reboot.

[@ASSADZMANFILMS]

love how he just walks away and no one says anything hahahahahahahaha

[@technomikelyons]

I half expected the sketch to end with Josh's ghost stepping into frame with the ghost lady.

[@GuardianFilmworks]

Awesome video! I love how you show how to create all the cool SFX to be able to pull this ghost effect off. Well done!

[@benephraim7200]

Such a sick effect

[@l4mb021]

Justin is actually a great actor!

[@TrippingHawk]

If you get a chance, check out the behind the scenes stuff for that ghost (and a bunch of the other ones in the new movie). They actually had the actress in full costume on set with the neon lights and everything so there'd be something tangible for Kate, Melissa, and Kristen to see and react to. They did a lot of old school work mixed with new tech on this one, I was pleasantly surprised.

[@Jtrueful]

As what's his name started backing up toward the door I thought the Ghost was going to get him. Why did they miss this idea?? But you guys are awesome never the less.

[@joshlowe1130]

Nice! Now maybe we'll see a rash of Ghostbusters fan films.

[@SebastianSchachner]

I cant´t belive that Emily are afraid of something which is like her, evil!!!! :D funny as every time, cool Episode

[@jimburrows2884]

Josh is always getting his ass kicked in all of Ryan's films 🤣 0:44 holy hell that's creepy af. That sent chills up my spine and goosebumps on my arms, complimented by that creepy music. Well done!

[@carlosalbertolinofilho9923]

This video where more funny then the movie LOL!

[@JamesonPounds]

Kingdom Chums! I grew up on that with Frankie Valli as Little David! "Stop. stop stop before you steal..." ha ha

[@filmriot]

+Jameson Pounds aw yeah!

[@roger9297]

Film Riot I hope one day in the near future I sit down in a movie theater ready to watch one of your films. You guys have made me laugh since 2009, I was about 10 years old when I started watching you guys. Now I'm 16 and I have so much film knowledge, I hope to one day meet you guys. I'm also in the process of saving up money and buying equipment to start making short films and use my film riot knowledge. Thank you for the awesome videos, you guys get better and better every year.

[@filmriot]

+Rogelio Ortega Thanks so much man! Can't tell you how happy it makes me to hear that the show has helped you. Best of luck with your projects!

[@ChrisGeden]

Better than the Ghostbusters trailer by far, especially the awkward walking backwards that took a really, really long time. A rarity in films thesedays.

[@BanazirGalpsi1968]

your version you made looks better than the trailer.

[@TryHardCreative]

Good work Film Riot!

[@stulawson]

pull focus on the pipe clamps....very impressive. That, and Ryan' demo hands.

[@jeremymolinari6597]

I'm only 3:28 in, but I just keep thinking "Yup, it's official, Hollywood effects, and the Film Riot seal of quality. Ryan Connolly is a God.".

[@SLUSHB0X]

Thanks for making some swaggin' daggin' videos

[@dslynx]

EPIC intro!

[@nathanhadjiyski4885]

Still better then the 2016 Ghostbusters!!!!!!

[@RPAudioeVisual]

When we look only to the final result, we tink: "Oh my God! This looks really hard to do/create/replicate!" But, when we see them teaching... Man... I can do this! It's Awesome!

[@filmriot]

That's awesome! That's always are goal.

[@SaberRewind]

I think it would be awesome if you did some 3D animation and tracking for the background, if stark could do something like that it would make a heck of an episode

[@TrueStoryTent]

Awesome skit and tutorial as always, Rye guy! I was trying to figure out why I didn't find that silent bit funny even though it seemed like it should've been. And I think it's because there was pretty much no sound at all. Perhaps if we could hear Arris' footsteps as he walks backwards and the sound of him opening the door, it could've landed. But whatever, still love it!

[@lukefirst407]

You are so helpful and awesome! Keep being you!

[@Golden_Spike]

I was waiting for a ghost Josh to appear next to the first ghost at the end.

[@vincentarceo7655]

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA that Bill Wilkins reference was perfect LOL

[@zigalkodonverven3862]

The choir made me want a shot of Emily running in slow motion when she hid her head behind the wall.

[@feebal-csgomomentsandmore8618]

I LOVE IT!

[@vfxstar7019]

Nice effect!

[@Volkth]

I want advanced effects like this! It would make me the best prankster at school lol, make a great video as well :3

[@Fubuki43]

What do pranks at school have to do with special effects?

[@Volkth]

Fubuki I can use m there

[@Volkth]

***** bring m after school some time

[@kleinwilkinson267]

this is awesome

[@temporaryspacestudios]

Let Film Riot make the next Ghostbusters please.

[@MiRaje8086]

LMFAOOOOOOOO, watch the intro skit while high. amazing.

[@RebootedGaming]

The movie is getting shit reviews though? Like, I'm thankful to see another Film Riot episode, and it's great that you're tackling something that is in recent film, but to say it's getting good reviews is unfortunately simply not true.

[@RebootedGaming]

LasersGoPew208 I did a Google search. Critics are giving it a 7 roughly, while users give it a 4-5. So no. Not a decent review, since most critics can't be trusted

[@RebootedGaming]

LasersGoPew208 Also, my own opinion xD I haven't seen the movie yet, so I cannot comment on its goodness or badness. I've just seen several user reviews that I personally trust more than random critics, and they slam most of the movie because of its simply unfunny nature.

[@RebootedGaming]

***** Yeah, it's not going to be the worst movie ever lol. I highly doubt any movie can really get that outside of Bunker of Blood or The Room or anything that's literally too bad to even watch. Dragonball Evolution came close too.

[@fanaticaH]

+Rebooted Well, for movie reviews 7 is not bad, it just means regular or average (above average for some that use 5 as average). It's certified fresh in Rotten Tomatoes. But for pictures like this I regard more user reviews, professional reviewers seem to hate science fiction and fantasy, so their reviews don't really reflect the quality of the movie.

[@RebootedGaming]

Elsa García I don't trust Rotten Tomatoes. They gave Star Wars Episode 3 a 79% Clearly they've got no fucking clue what makes a good movie.

[@BigKarl519]

I WILL NOT IGNORE THE PIPE CLAMPS!

[@thebouncyburger1499]

Love this!

[@bulletholesprod]

Thumbs up if you're an aspiring filmmaker like us!

[@henrymccord6487]

Pretty sure everyone watching would be of some sort.

[@Salehalanazi-7]

nope to me just some one trying to fuck around with after effects as a hobby i develop apps i'm not sure why am i watching this! :/ i just love seeing hard work i guess! XD

[@pgfunkybone]

Already know that its going to be a good video

[@tarnafiti8212]

So cool!

[@loganhunt8029]

That's so awesome

[@kylemorgan1316]

Awesome! inspired me to dust off the fog machine!

[@danb1a]

It's nice to see Emily back from Military School.

[@maskedyoutuberchannelrevie8367]

This seams like it should be in its always sunny

[@kenjiharimaCU]

IF you are possessed by a ghost/demon you can be exorcised using the proton pack, it's also used for humans in the GB cartoons when they became the Crime Busters

[@filmstuff2593]

Haha the sketch was amazing!!!😂

[@keyproductions100]

when the camera flicks from the "ghostbuster" backing away, to the people just looking at him, they should have added the dead mans ghost staring at him aswell

[@Nagrooven]

Should make a Lights Out tutorial!

[@HazMattProductions]

Wow... Kingdom Chums top ten reference... was not expecting that one.

[@neonerfilms]

This looks likes the real shot from the film...I'm speechless

[@SuperXmatheus]

I don't like the movie, but I like this.. Thanks Ryan

[@lionbear7516]

Anyone else see Arris(?) dancing to the theme song in the corridor? So funny 😂

[@andrewr1355]

That's has got to be the first of Ryan's parting movie references that I actually got. Which is sad... because I love movies...

[@demonicsweaters]

very cool!

[@gn6300]

Awesome!

[@jackdaniel7826]

🎶Who you're gonna call? FILM, RIOT!🎶

[@rererere96]

OH THE REFERENCES, SO GREEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAT

[@eKalb33]

I would have totally missed the Twinkie reference if I hadn't just watched the original movie last weekend.

[@NoobishAlpha]

you guys rock !

[@filmriot]

+El Pollo Thanks man!

[@DialanRob]

Thanks for this amazing tuttorial. You have a new follower.

[@JohnWellsMorrison]

(3:13) I used to watch the heck (pun intended) out of the Kingdom Chums Original Top Ten. Nostalgia.

[@JeffLafferty]

Great vid and tips, thanks

[@Pernection]

I have the best idea for a Ghostbusters spinoff in the world

[@rdoetjes]

It would have been even more funny when Josh crashed the all looked down and after a 3 second or so silence Emily looks up to the other guy and said: "You called Aris?!"

[@TimwLyons]

Hey Ryan, could you do the ghost effect seen in the doctor strange trailer??

[@finlaycassie2852]

+

[@JorgeNunezFilms]

Great stuff as always! Possible proton pack tutorial coming soon?? Looks like you guys might have used the Saber plug-in from VCP?

[@TechnicallyaNomad]

Still has better effects than the Ghostbusters reboot

[@MrDOCTORDERPY]

this is almost the exact same way the reboot handles the human ghosts

[@dragonfire9987]

I just started with special effects recently and on some of these videos i have no idea what your talking about when you show how to do the effect, (i use hitfilm 4 express) could you maybe do a video on the basics of compositing?

[@harrischristopher31]

That was awesome, loved the effects. Question though, think I could get the same thing out of blender?

[@maxim25o2]

This looks like Ghostbusters old school technique , and is fucking awesome better then new cinema version.

[@bokerzowl738]

Awsome thanks

[@KyleRoy]

Good reviews, riiiiight..

[@ramoverboard6093]

3:33 is where he finally gets to the point

[@sebastiancervantes1348]

Whoa, its the guy from VariantComics! lol

[@_Looft]

“Receiving good reviews so far” yeahhh about that

[@PaulMcElligott]

The look of pure disdain on Emily’s face... that’s acting! Or, is that how she really feels about Erris?
