    It is so great to see some more of the backstory of Sessums & Slagle, and specifically some of the work of Dave Humpert and Chuck Welch. I had the good fortune of doing some side work for these productions, and knew Chuck when his mother had a hobby shop in San Bernardino. Chuck passed in 1991.

    WOW Tom! Love the edit. So interesting, plus the original cuts of the Hoff. Great long-distance shot at the end showing the camera set-up.
    So looking forward to more. The Knight Rider fans will go boogaloo over this.

    That was fantastic! Love to see this stuff. The explosion looked real scale. Also really awesome to see the KITT turbo boost footage from 3 angles where the car lands, spins and then races offwith real sound and everything. Amazing. Footage never used on the show!

    Had to come back and watch this again. I wish the show had used KITT landing, spinning and racing off instead of just cutting it right after the landing. This makes me wonder how many times they had awesome footage after the short jumps they chose not to use but instead did the usual interior edit shot?

  • @bandittweintraub

    Didn't they do the miniatures for Dukes of Hazzard as well?

  • @digitalmagicAR
    @digitalmagicAR Před rokem

    Question for Sessums and Slagle: What film frame rate did you guys record at? And what frame rate did the studio record the Knight Rider real car jumps?
    I've always wondered this but no one I've asked ever knew. I expect DOH, Fall Guy, A-Team all used the same type cameras and speed back then

    • @jacksessumspeteslagle
      @jacksessumspeteslagle  Před rokem +3

      When shooting ~1:8 scale 68 FPS was ideal for most shots, 120 was preferred for explosions. Sometimes they might jump back down to 68 to film smoky aftermaths. They used three high-speed cameras: the Arri Arriflex 35 III, Mitchell 35mm, and 35mm Photosonics 4E. All filmed up to 120 and the 4E could do 360. They sounded like chainsaws. The crew yelled to communicate, filming was MOS/no sound. The Arri was their "weapon of choice" as they could put it just about anywhere with a 400ft mag. The studio played back at 24FPS. Hope that helps!

    Is there a book coming out?

    • @thomashigginson2807
      @thomashigginson2807 Před 2 lety +4

      Yes, it is near the finish line. It will be free and available online, certainly on its own Facebook site, so fans can comment, correct, and ask questions. After a period of time to account for that, it will be available as a digital book on a dedicated website. You'll be able to turn the pages [using your mouse] as you'd with a traditional paper copy.

      Thanks for the feedback! I probably won't talk slower in future videos. But you can slow the narration down in any CZcams videos by setting your playback speed to .75.
