Research: Sugar-glass

The Stunt Production — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 15:17:00 +0000

This week, The Stunt Production has been experimenting with glass-breaking effects that are not only safe but realistic as well.

A more realistic alternative than the previous methods of molding bottles made of wax, the new sugar-glass material breaks just like glass.

This material can be molded into any shape or form which makes glass-shattering possibilities endless from bottles to glass sheets to ornaments. All breakable, and safe.

Note that this video is taken at an experimental stage only.

Following up with our post on hand-made muskets and swords, here is a short clip from behind-the-scenes of “Raiders Of The Sulu Sea” – a documentary produced by Oak 3 Films.

Highlights include a World War 2 Mauser Kar 98K firing and an artillery bombardment sequence. Also note that we fixed up pyro effects on our muskets. In effect, our muskets are now able to fire. At least, on-screen.

Romanov Red Commercial

In December 2007, The Stunt Production went over to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on a shoot with Landmark Productions for a Bollywood commercial.

Some highlights of this shoot include high-flying skateboard flips and a Spiderman-esque leap across the air at rooftop-level.

And here is the finished commercial:

The following is a video displaying safety measures (Plexiglass) put up to enable a point-blank pistol fire to an actor’s face. Blanks used are special-effects copper blanks and a de-activated pistol.

Props: Hand-made 17th Century Muskets and Long Swords

The Stunt Production — Sun, 24 May 2009 06:20:05 +0000

In November 2007, The Stunt Production was tasked to manufacture a collection of 17th Century weapons for Oak 3 Film’s documentary, “Raiders of the Sulu Seas”.

Among this, we hand-made 8 muskets and a variety of bladed weapons from long swords to kris. The bladed weapons contain two types; wooden blade and steel. Wooden blades are used during closed-fights, for safety purposes, whereas steel ones are used for close-ups and the like where details are noticeable.

Research was done before the project commenced and it took three weeks before it was ready to be delivered on-set.
