[@zwickflixproductions4379]

Normal crafsman is great, film-related crafsman is fantastic

[@nwilkins4758]

I think the word your looking for is “filmtastic”😂

[@TheCrafsMan]

Aww mannn, thank y'all!

[@jjack.mp3]

TheCrafsMan SteadyCraftin can you do more stop motion?

[@brennap3310]

Crafstastic

[@burger1037]

* ball is literally floating in the air * Crafsman: (zooms in on E.T. lamp) look at that right there.

[@comradeuu3837]

Nice to see the free range chicken finally having moveable joints!

[@JuJuAndPenny]

I saw this comment before I saw the chicken, so when I finally did see the chicken I nearly spit out my coffee. 😂

[@FidgetAndFreon]

LOL! Got tickled hearing CrafsMama being amazed at your Boba Fett trickery. 😺

[@Mythara]

More CrafsMama!

[@jurgenblust2042]

I believe that Crafsmama would move with significantly more grace when dressed as a free-range chicken.

[@allstrange7495]

These videos have just been getting better and better. It feels like you’re having more fun with them recently. I love the videos please keep them comin!

[@TheCrafsMan]

Thank you so much! I actually am having more fun with them lately. :D It's neat to see you say that!

[@divergentdeva]

"it's sanctified, it's holy" love the energy. And mystery

[@pbartmess]

My compliments to whoever operated the free range chicken suit. The chicken strut was perfect! I burst out laughing and had to watch it several times. Excellent film advice as usual.

[@katfyte]

What’s better than a CrafsMan video and coffee on a Sunday morning? Not a thing!

[@k.w.1459]

CM is a joy to the world. Always puts a smile on my face. Hugs to you and all y’all fans! ❤️

[@volttherobot]

Wasn’t ready for that whiffle ball joke. Hah Thanks for another great video!

[@CorndogPoncho]

I love snippets of the family snuck in there. Its great to see the channel starting to involve crafs family!

[@richyjjsmith]

That live action free range chicken was a serious surprise, and it was amazing! It's always great to see you doing new things

[@shoestringscifi]

This might be my second-favorite of your videos...my favorite being about things that you like. Thanks for all that you do!

[@jonathantillian6528]

The actors in Rope said it was one of the most grueling pictures they had ever worked on. The reason? Every time one of them made a mistake the entire 15 minute section of film had to be reshot.

[@TheCrafsMan]

I have wondered how that must feel to an actor, the pressure of having to get the dialog and staging nailed exactly, for fear of having to re-shoot.

[@randomgirll3123]

TheCrafsMan SteadyCraftin I’m guessing they had some serious stage acting experience and did a lot of rehearsals.

[@SoManyTopics]

One of the best episodes ever... I already had a smile on my face, but when I heard "CrafsMan, you crazy baby!" I laughed so hard! Edit: Not only cool and funny, but also very informational. I need to find a copy of the Filming The Fantastic book! Thanks CrafsMan!

[@user-ht5ce2it3z]

This is like all my favorite things together. Film, miniature making, the Crafsman. You're awesome, keep being awesome, thanks for what you do.

[@TheCheeseKnees97]

i hear that song at the end. The Free Range Chicken has a song in its heart

[@338352687]

First time ever seeing this channel. Subscribed within 30 seconds.

[@EdNorty]

Crafsman, I've always had that nodal point thing in the back of my mind! I had the concept in my head, I just didn't know what the nodal point was (didn't even know what it was called), but I was always thinking about how to position the camera so that there's no parallax (for digital matte paintings and yes, forced perspective shots). Thanks for including that information! I didn't ever expect it would come from one of your viddos, but I'm glad it did! Didn't even know cameras indicated that or that people were even thinking of this problem! Thanks a lot, Crafsman!

[@TheCrafsMan]

I'm SO SO glad to read this comment! THANK YOU! I honestly almost left it out, because it started to feel a little too technical and I felt like nobody would really find it valuable. This comment right here makes me glad to have left it in.

[@EdNorty]

@@TheCrafsMan I've had that thought for years, sir! Literally years, unsolved in my mind. I think it started with the hypothetical "how do you pan with a forced perspective shot" question. Hehe. This knowledge is totally gonna help me stitch shots for applying matte paintings on too, I'm definitely gonna go study in this direction. You are truly a gem, sir! And my 11-yo brother also loves your viddos! I hope to see more film or fx-related Crafsman content, but if not, everything else is great too! So many cool, hidden ideas from this channel that I'd love to do and build off of for my own dream projects! Much love from the Philippines!

[@shoestringscifi]

I second that. Thanks, Crafsman!

[@ephillips2250]

Craftsman teach us cooking, movie effects, diy house projects, a math problem solving tip. Seriously whatever you want to show and teach us, not only will we watch.....We will learn. You are the best

[@deborahwillis7923]

Craftsman, I love you too and all the different things you share. Your knowledge of many things that you can do is educational. As well as inspiring to people. Thanks again for sharing. Peace ✌ out.

[@krodman6399]

What l love is that all of these videos you’re doing seem to be leading up to something big. Like, we get to watch you collecting info in real time and we get to see your skills evolve and I just feel like we are privileged to see this. Because the more you know, the more you show. And the content is getting better and better and your art really shows your spirit and that my friend is a joy to watch. Thanks.

[@DavidBoggs007]

Share this with your friends. We got to get craftsman up over 300,000 subscribers. We all love you Craftsman!

[@talldrinkomusic]

Fave channel hands down. This creative love puddle is a gift. Thank you for sharing your passions with us!

[@ynnej001]

Great practical effects rite'there! Now I really have to question non-photoshopped images 😂 love the background voices! I vote craft momma is in the chicken, suit otherwise it would be a rooster suit.

[@TheCrafsMan]

;)

[@miserymedia]

"Crafsman you crazy babeh' " LOL

[@sixroldan6742]

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@octodoodle]

You have no idea how much your videos brighten my day, I started watching you after a random recommendation popped up in my feed and you've had nothing but a positive impact on my life, all the best from New Zealand (AKA Middle Earth) Kia Kaha!

[@SabrinasWorkshop]

Crafsman, your videos always cheer me up! I'm catching up on the last few and they are the best way to spend the afternoon.

[@somasmith]

Crafsman, your videos just keep getting better! They've always been great, but you are going above and beyond these days. Thank you for the info, the entertainment, and the encouragement. You are a blessing to the world.

[@blammers]

Crafsman does not own a microwave, but he does have a radioactive camera lens.

[@TheCrafsMan]

You got me there! :D LOL!

[@jeremybourkel6732]

The free range chicken knocking at the end ! Genius!

[@DavidLGood]

There is not a SINGLE THING about this video that I disliked. LOVED it. Cool tips, yes... but HILARIOUS along the way. LOVE IT!! Subscribed!

[@RustOnWheels]

I’ll never cast toys. I’ll never make stop motion movies. I’ll never film with practical effects. I’ll never use molds and resin. I do however always thoroughly enjoy watching Crafsman doing all of the above and more. Because you can feel the passion, sincerity and love in whatever the Crafsman does. You’re such a great teacher, inspiration and human being and you’re therapy for the soul. Really, watching Crafsman videos makes me so relaxed and happy that I can genuinely lose all the stress and anxiety that life can throw at me. Thanks so much for your wonderful work and inspiring crafting. Love ya!

[@TheCrafsMan]

Thank you SO much for this!

[@informedandfree9828]

The absolute best thing on KZbin by far.! Great job! Keep’em comin’.

[@frankschuler2867]

I never thought I'd learn so much from a puppet. Thanks, man. I love your stuff.

[@luckyyates]

Crafsman, you’re the greatest teacher I’ve ever had

[@rayrayishappy1567]

“Crafman I love ur KZbin” 😂😂love it

[@technosasquatchfilms]

Don't know if you watch This Old Tony, He has lots of great camera tricks he does in almost every video.

[@chaos.corner]

I notice a couple of similarities in style. I wonder if one has inspired the other.

[@jasonhoffman6642]

If you haven't watched this in the last 5 months, it really is something you have to watch again and again to appreciate the subtleties. FRC not knowing what to do with his walkie talkie just got me today, especially now that I know a little more about Adventure Man and all his packs and pockets.

[@randynovick7972]

Neat stuff -- mysteries explained! (I'm still laughing at "Crafsman you crazy!") Made my day. Many thanks.

[@CarlosCanalesNieto]

Craftsman, your videos are a real jewel, they help me go through difficult times, your voice is simply relaxing, hope the universe keeps you safe for lots of time so you can keep with all the amazing things you do. You are not a teacher, you are a master. Greetings from Mexico.

[@caybin]

Thank you, KZbin algorithm. This channel is incredible. Subscribed.

[@markdmaker3173]

Crafsman, You give me the big Old smiles every time I watch you.

[@tannerabbott1452]

Crafsman, you seem so upbeat in this video! It was extremely fun to watch and I’m sure these tricks will come in handy. Thanks!

[@JinzoCrash]

There's something so... calming about being able to smack a Boba Fett figure onto paper... I think it's the wish that toy storage were that easy & compact.

[@Zaika_plays]

One of my fave creators on KZbin! You inspire me to have fun with craftin’

[@MMDesign1]

This is the best thing on KZbin. Hands down.

[@TomoyoTatar]

Hes magic ♡ it's so nice to be able to know how to do this without special effects. Keeping it real.

[@ikmnification5737]

The Crafs Man reacts to Film Effects in Movies needs to happen.

[@m.maclellan7147]

Open the door! That free range chicken wants to come in ! ;> EXCELLENT video ! Loved hearing "Crafsmama" in the background ! Thinking maybe "Crafson" was in there, too ?! Just tickled that the family is getting involved ! If that's Crafsmama in the "Free Range Chicken" she seems TALL ! ;>

[@shaina899]

Crafsman said she was tall in a previous episode, so maybe?

[@CodyLScaggs]

This is the video I discovered your channel with. And I'm hooked. I came for in-camera techniques and practical effects work, but I stay for your winning sense of humor. Hope you can make more videos about filmmaking/VFX. Thank you CrafsMan!

[@Mattbezell]

Crafsman is now a future magician... we better watch out

[@camcordernonsense5264]

the simple approaches are so much more satisfying

[@Fancylooks]

I love the second trick, I would certainly use it in my videos when I find the right one to use it, it will make a fantastic intro!

[@RichardM-kv4uu]

This guy should be president - of the world!

[@scottjones8100]

What a FANTASTIC job you did with this video, Crafsman! Again, you showed another interesting idea that anyone could do--you explain things excellently. I can tell you put a LOT into this video, and it really paid off. I hope you feel some satisfaction from this job REALLY well done!

Man, that's the funniest thing I've seen in weeks. You are awesome!

[@francoromero1474]

Crafsman really be filiming the fantastinc on every video, lots of love to you Crafsman!

[@simonjpollard]

The world needs more of this friendly calmness. Pure peace.

[@philthy8150]

Best content on KZbin period.............

[@spinnerfun7944]

Another awesome video! Thank you Crafsman!

[@craftzillu6041]

Love what you do keep it up

[@thetrap1983]

Crafsman always presents the most intriguing, well crafted, content on KZbin. I truly appreciate all of the time that you spend in the editing process. Thank you!

[@sometimessnarky1642]

Crafsman "winging it" with free range chicken and the forced perspective. :-) I was typing this at the end and had to stop and replay the arrival of free range chicken. Attention to detail. Nicely done.

[@cyberpunk4622]

Always steady learning with TheCrafsMan

[@bije277]

The forced perspective one was so great.

[@mathieu4204]

CrafsMan calling the Freerange Chicken on the walkie? I love it! Got to love the Chickenmobile.

[@saraha2890]

I am so happy I discovered your channel, your videos always inspire me and put a big smile on my face!! 😁 I always want to get craftin’ after watching your videos! Best KZbin channel there is!

[@horseshine6137]

I normally watch your vids on my TV so I can't comment, but I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your sense of humour. You make me laugh every time! It doesn't even matter if you're talking about a subject which is not interesting to me, I watch to see what you'll say. I truly believe that you have missed your calling and that you would do well in comedy (no offense I hope). You are a genius and I love your work. I hope you keep on steady craftin' :)

[@weirdosheep619]

That Free-Range Chicken pounding and clucking was making a REAL nice minimal beat. I was bobbing my head NGL.

[@user-bp5py6bh3g]

Thanks for this video, I'm falling asleep to your voice which is great since I'm sick and have been struggling for the past few hours 😯

[@mehalla451]

Awesome old school approach to filming, great stuff crafsman!

[@themarlboromandalorian]

This is possibly your best work. I hope to see more.

[@tbandikoota]

Best ending EVER to a KZbin video 😆🏆 When that car pulled up followed by the (no spoiler) sound, I lost it Crafsman 🤣🤣🤣

[@JosephKeenanisme]

You the man. Practical effects can save you a lot of headaches. Hint for doing the Bobba Fett type stuff (rope cuts) is to make sure you have everything marked off well. Having everything lined up better reduces the number of takes and editing.... Edge marks below you laid the paper down for example. For a person you can get a frisbee with an arrow drawn on it (to show where the person was facing). LOL, while you were getting ready to upload this video yesterday a friend and I spend a few hours discussing the in camera effects we're going be using on a spec script I brought over.

[@snouty2005]

Haha hey Crafsman, I worked on that book! I was one of the technical readers that proofed the manuscript before publication. I love that book. :) so nice to see it again.

[@lilbohbeat5785]

All right, all right YourhosttheCrafsman, you win. I turned on my notifications just so that I could hit that bell of yours. Seriously! You’re the first! Never been on any notification squad before - but proud to be on yours!

[@tokyohanamura]

No matter how many times I see it, I love that rag doll looking Mega Man sitting on the shelf

[@MonsterBuddy10]

I've been looking to get into forced perspective photography for my model cars, that actually really helped a bunch. Crafsman, you're the coolest!

[@aaronbono4688]

Creativity at its finest!

[@burgeryoufoundbehindthegrill]

This is some of my favorite craftin, crafsman! Wow!

[@unclebadger597]

This should have more views. Love you CrafsMan!

[@k.w.1459]

You can also use the Vectra line if you want to “suspend” items in a “time stand still” effect while the camera moves around

[@Shastavalleyoutdoorsman]

That might have been the best episode ever Crafsman. Thanks 🤠

[@TheCrafsMan]

Wow! Thank you! This one is my wife's favorite so far as well. :D

[@Shastavalleyoutdoorsman]

@@TheCrafsMan yes sir I believe that free range chicken skit was the highlight of my day 😁👍. Also really love the tips thank you. Hope you're having a wonderful day.

[@aspengechel3723]

That “it’s Saintified....it’s holy” joke was amazing😂😂👌🏾✨

[@censusgary]

Crafsman’s puppet avatar has shaved! That effect where you slap the figure from three dimensions into two dimensions is one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. “Rope” is not the most entertaining of Hitchcock’s films to watch, but it is one of the most interesting in terms of camera angles and effects. Unless you watch very closely, it gives the impression that the whole movie was filmed in one very long shot, in just one interior set.

[@avi8r66]

Great stuff as always. Thank you Mr and Mrs Chrafsman.

[@cclarke6]

That was a great video. I have to watch it again. Thank you Crafsman!

[@frizzlefry176]

This was incredible! How’d I not see this one until now!? Very fun video

[@TheOneLTReacts]

It's sanctified... lol!!!!! I love you so much Mr Crafsman... your dad jokes namber one... your show is namber one... your crafts are namber one... your shop is namber one...

[@mikeballew8385]

Outstanding! Watching this really made my day.

[@actioncom2748]

I wanted some in-camera special effects and you delivered! Thank you for this video.

[@KenRobidoux]

Episode 103: 3 Fantastic (in-camera) EFFECTS! Old-school film tricks! - Crafsman's first attempt at a full-on, location & actor, skit. Much like Episode 001: How to Weather Wood QUICKLY (Barnwood Effect) + Wire Brush Trick, Episode 103 is brilliant on its own while simultaneously functioning as a perfect example, an indicator if you will, of genius to come. The evolution of Crafsman & this channel continue to be a lovely thang and one we are especially grateful for in our house.

[@TheCrafsMan]

I can't even articulate with letters how much this comment encourages me. Thank you guys for keepin' on watching the videos! :D

[@r.davidhill7639]

Craftsman I have been a huge fan since finding your channel last year. I will happily watch any video you put out because of your particular style and flavor but I loved this great how to secrets video. Free range chicken was a great sport to make an appearance for you. Lol

[@kbowler9266]

I always enjoy your videos. You make it seem like anyone can do it.

[@overweightactor]

I didn't know how much I needed a live action Free Range Chicken feature.

[@jamman737]

Crafsman your great you have such a wide variety of skills that you share with us I just can't get enough...Crafsman you crazy baby..LOL, now where did I put my sanctified wiffle ball. Thanks for the smiles this one was awesome.

[@sirfred2004]

Crafsman, you one talented fella. You know all kinds of things.
