Behind VITRO: the title sequence

by  Malcolm Bunge

When I met Willi, who is responsible for the VITRO-intro, the last time, I asked him how he actually built it. He told me in After Effects and tried to explain it to me, while he was sitting in front of the computer and pointing to the screen. The problem is: Because I told Will that I worked with After Effects (once) before he thought I would understand all this nerdy stuff he was talking about. After half an hour showing all his fancy shortcuts and blablas, I asked him to explain it to me as if I was a retarded monkey.

He did something even better: He made a video I would like to share with you:

It’s a wrap!

We’ve finished principal photography on the VITRO trailer and are jumping into editing, color grading und visual effects right away! Thanks to our courageous crew we only lost three extras in the woods and made it back to the city with all our toes in tact.

Pouch project

by  Faja Bierfilz

 

Since you never know whats coming it’s always best to be prepared.

Handkerchiefs in case of a cold, tools being stored, the emergency ration of cookies and chocolate. Reasons for carrying extra pouch with you are always there.

Made from an old original army pouch (80 years old), this sheath-like pouch was created with just a few new materials.

Belts

by  Faja Bierfilz

 

I’ve uploaded these pictures to show you how much work even the littlest things can cause. Thanks to the right tools cutting out the belts is easy. The “lockers” are also easy to place if you remember to thin out the belt at each end (for making the closing of the belt easier). But the greatest challenge is polishing the edges. Every belt took me about five minutes to polish. When buying a belt, THATS the work you pay for. But it gives the belt its unique look. The melting wax will seal the edges and protect them from high humidity. And it makes it look nicer – doesn’t it?

First casting decisions

by  Willi Haninger

In the very first VITRO video we’ll be introducing both the main character and her (not-quite-biological) scientist father. So an introduction to the cast is long overdue:

More location photos

by  Juliane Block

To get a better idea of how we want to shoot things we went back into the mountains and dark forests of the “Harz”. Found a dark cabin. Need a new Timmy.

Thanks to our DoP Benjamin for making these awesome photos.
