Pawn's garage Dinoworld video

[pawnosuchus]

Here is a video I made of my garage world. I apologize for the poor quality and lighting. It's basically a trial run and I expect(hope) to do a much better one soon. As it is, you can get an idea of the overall big picture of my garage. it are welcome.Any suggestions about how exactly to improve

That's really a great setup. The lighting of course will be the most important thing. You have bright sunlight and dark shadows. Better focus might help also. I'm looking forward to seeing you making a better copy. What did you use for the Dinosaur sound? Also you could use some music like Jurassic Park or something in the background. Just a thought.

What an amazing collection and display! Such a lot of work. Thank you for sharing!

Amazing collection and dioramas, to paraphrase the Clash, "We're a garage band, we come from dino-land!"

I think Stoneage has a point about the lighting, have you tried filming at night with the garage light on? Might show up the collection a bit better.

Also love the roars which turn up in the Cretaceous!

Nice!!

It's definitely a great collection and a good way to display. I wish I could do something like that, but I don't even have space for my collection the way it is displayed, in shelves, let alone dioramas like that.

nice.

Thanks for looking. Actually the second one I did has much better lighting. check that one out.

WOW! That's an excellent vid. You're lucky to have the space to expand out like that.
Re: the tech part. I think the whole thing (focus etc...) is based on the lighting or lack there of. A simple 4 ft fluorescent lighting fixture over each era should give you more than enuff light. The trick tho is to spend a little more $$ and get the grow lights. It will give you a better color balance for the vid. You've noticed that incandescent light always gives that orange cast to pics/vids? Grow bulbs or even day light bulbs gives you that balance that makes things look like these animals are right outdoors in good ol' Sol. HTH

Of course with all those grow lights you'll probably get raided by the vice squad!
