Thread: [*][*][*]-> Dream Views Lucid Dreaming Pod Casts <-[*][*][*]

Well videos are good for the community to see us and see that we are just as normal as any other person. Also it makes it more personal if you can see who is talking.

I have a built in mic on my laptop for the live chats coming up, but i use a mini DV for my pod casts.

EDIT: Yeah slash, it is a pain in the ass. Oh well, i will figure it out.

EDIT EDIT: Damn. Didn't know about WMM 2. I will have to look for it.

yeah true sometimes i read a post and i kind of automatically paint a picture of what a person probably looks like in reallife, it nice to see a real person.

Yea, Alex. There is one effect (or transition maybe) that you can have two things on at once. So you could have the video at the top and the picture at the bottom or something. But I'm not sure if you could actually swap the video for a picture and still keep the audio.

Well jake has a lot of good stuff, i can probably just ask him if he has a nice video editor.

LucidTv on youtube, the guy used greenscreen. like he made a video of himself using the NovaDreamer and he would use that video in the background while he was talking. The only thing with him was that I had to turn my volume up all the way because he didn't have a mic. but he presented himself well.

Greenscreening may be out of reach atm but i'm sure maybe in the near future, it could be in use? Hopefully? Maybe you guys can find someone who can set it up? I don't know.

Haha good idea.

If you find out about one, please do tell me.

But by the way, Adobe After Effects would work. I use it for some stuff, quite easy to use too. Only problem is that it is very expensive. Well, it is relatively cheap, but still a lot of money.

It is fairly easy to set up. All it requires is green cloth or paint (non reflective) and the right software.
I also know of a free software package that gives you the green room effect.

I have used green screen before, using After Effects.

It isn't that hard at all. i dont even need it to be a GREEN screen. i have used purple before, and of course blue.

Well shit! Someone on the team should seriously hook it up then!

That would make things interesting.

Oh god lol. Greenscreen would be nice, but that is a little bit in the future yes ^_^

But of course it COULD be imlemented. But what is the actual need for it? Maybe i could do something like on "The Soup" where they have a mini tv to the right of the guy, and they put different images on there. Other then that i dont see the point?

But if anyone could give me a reason to i would open about it.

I'd rather watch someone with crazy ass images behind them than someone sat in their bedroom.

Extremely Excited about this!! Love the idea

agreed. even if it just them sleeping in the background, recording their sleeping body have a successful lucid dream.

like, "yeah thats me, and at about this point probably, I'm just finding out that I'm dreaming"

Well if you guys need a green screener, then just tell me. I'm your man.

I could edit your videos if you want, or i could take my own videos and edit them. What ever, but if at some point you need me, just ask me. 'Cause i've already got everything I would need for that.

Alright thanks Slash.

Well i dont want to greenscreen if it is going to make it look sloppy.

You havent seen the rest of the crew's videos yet either, they arent (atleast mine arent) in my bedroom lol.

Well, I could do a test for you if you want?

Just to test out a few different ways of using the greenscreen, i.e. box in the corner, backround etc.

Yeah, again i dont know how we would utilize this. Go ahead if you want to, and i can show it to the cast and we can look at it further. Thanks

Ok, will do, as soon as I get the chance to mess about with my computer and get After Effects installed again. Because I changed my OS, so things got messed up.

sounds great people.

SHITBALLS

alot of people posted today

i was thinking of getting a greenscreen for the videos but i dont know how well that is going to go with my dad

im afraid if i tell him im doing videos with people we will get mad

and even more so if i tell him its about dreams

('why' you ask?)

cause he is an ignorant bastard who needs to listen to other people sometimes

hes one of the people whos mindset is "If i dont know what you are talking about personally. it is not real/true and is utter and complete bullshit" ;__;

i kind of feel that no one really understands or is even interested. i think its just because this is an unknown topic. thats why i post at dreamviews.

i even created a poll about it: http://dreamviews.com/community/showthread.php?t=77186

I'm just glad that I'm interested in this because a lot of people seriously don't know what they are missing out on.

But yeah, slash said (if i remember correctly), that he could i guess digitally fill in a green screen behind the subject without there ever being one. So it looks like you won't have to set one up.

ha

i voted in that thread like right after i joined.


But yea i still have some business cards on my tv that i made

what i really want to do is try to get enough people really interested in LDing and start a club at school

I Feel u lucid and banana, no one understands the meaning of lucid dreaming in my family.

I tell my parents about it, and they simply shrug their shoulders.

But i think that this field of LD is foreign to most because of the widespread media.

I'd like to help any way i can, i could talk about the struggles of first learning this art. I would also explain the benefits to this art.

Seeing that the team still has it's cap, i'll keep in touch. I wanna help this good cause. ;D
