My man Sundance and I got together Saturday to shoot our very first video episode of Bauer-Power, and we needed something to use as a backdrop. My wife is was of town, so we decided to shoot at my apartment as it was guaranteed to be free of screaming toddlers, of which we both have.
Anyhoo, I wanted to have something up as a backdrop, but we are on a very tight budget (i.e. $0.00) so that left me with one option. That's right, I had to make my own.
I decided to look around the net and immediately found a free solution to my problem. It is called Posteriza. It lets you take an image, and blow it up by splitting it among multiple pieces of paper.
The only drawback is that it takes 1.5 bitches to piece it back together, but it is certainly do-able. Check out the cheesy backdrop I made for the show (Which will be posted Friday):
We actually didn't go with that particular poster, and opted for a smaller one for ease of taping together:
Can anybody say Ghetto? That's okay, I think that adds to the charm. Maybe when we start making some money from this little hobby we can afford something with a little more pizazz, but until then we have Posteriza!
Be sure to check back Friday for our first VIDEO episode!
