Strange Dayz, Austin’s finest DOORS tribute band, performed “Light My Fire” live at Threadgill’s World Headquarters (Austin, Texas). May 2017

They hired me to shoot and edit their show. I had worked with them a year ago and was happy to be shooting for them again.

Shot with a Canon XC 10, Canon T3i, Canon g20, A GoPro 4, a slider and Bogen tripods.
The video was edited with Adobe Premiere. The logos and graphics were crafted in Adobe Photoshop and animated in Adobe After Effects.

How they showed Superman flying away and in the same shot, Clark Kent comes in the door.

OK, I think I know how they did it….

look at 3.51 in this youtube clip, we see over Lois’s shoulder Superman saying goodnight and flying away. Then in the same shot, NO cuts she walks over to the apartment door and lets Clark Ken in… same shot.  How they did it?

Had a Superman double in the shot? No, thats clearly Christopher Reeve as Superman in the same scene as Christopher Reeve as Clark Kent.  Did they have Reeve get pulled by wires offscreen and he quickly changed out of his Superman suit and into Clark Kent clothes?  Possibly but highly unlikely…. Superman could move that fast, Christopher Reeve couldn’t.    A hidden jump cut? I’ve rewatched it studied that shot and theres no cut.  Today they could hide a cut with a digital morph, you couldn’t do that in 1978.

 

No, look at 3.51 again. Margot Kidder is standing  in front of a PROJECTION of (earlier shot footage of) Christopher Reeve flying away then she walks away from the rear projection scene onto a practical set and then Christopher Reeve as Clark Kent walks in. All done IN CAMERA.
