Ask "BAMBAM" - Spoilers ALL seasons, all SG Shows/Movies

what are you planning to get? Curious me

It is some Japanese artwork centered around a Katana, the sword of the Samurai............some engraving in the blade.........ya

Hehe, in that case, I think I found your MySpace profile. Is that you on the beach?

Do your tattoos every affect your work when you double for someone? Could cause bad continuity Those tattoos sound cool though, what are you planning to get on your arm?

Ya that was me I think......that was in the Bahamas one year.....my tattoos are currently in places where you don't see that often because wardrobe is covering them, but...........In extreme cases where that is not possible, the make-up department covers the ink to blend in and look like skin.

Just make sure you get your calcium in somehow.

We already touched on that in an earlier entry.......sooooooooooooooooo many more sources of calcium......We have been brainwashed to a certain extent on milk being the only place to get it.........Calcium is all over the place......look it up!!!

[2BAM]

Would you rather do one massive stunt scene or several smaller ones throughout an ep?

Which would be easier?

Impossble to anwer based on what the stunt is.................I guess............One massive scene would be easier to keep track of because it would be restricted to one day as per our schedule........spreading them out is more to keep track of and cuts into prep time for upcoming episodes as well. I don't prefer either.

Hey BamBam!

Q for tonight: If you look at the latest fight scene you made, how long time did it take to do it and how much usually ends up on screen?

Sounds cool. I´d love to see a pic of it - any chance you would post one when it´s finally done?
...I hardly dare ask for a pic of that dragon....

Okay, I did, and BOY were you right! I didn't realize how many places.
It looks like the key is to make sure the calcium is absorbed by the body well, meaning vitimin D and/or sunlight. We can see that you get plenty of the latter

AG, if you want the extra info, I got it here

Hey BamBam!

Q for tonight: If you look at the latest fight scene you made, how long time did it take to do it and how much usually ends up on screen?

The latest larger fight sequence we have done on Atlantis took a total of 8 hours rehearsal for all the stunt doubles, a total of 3 hours rehearsal for all the actors involved, and a total of 4-6 hours to shoot the fight on the day of filming........I have no idea how much will end up on the screen, you see, sometimes the episode is overtime.....too long in minutes....so they have to cut scenes out and edit everything down to make the episode appear shorter. Sometimes, that means cutting a full stunt scene out, if it dosn't seem to carry the story along any more. Sometimes they cut half of a fight, sometimes they cut 2 seconds out and leave the rest......It all makes sense to somebody else......not always to me! Sometimes, if all goes well, the whole sequence stays in as it was intended.

Thank you, Neelan Liquor. I very much appreciate any additional assistance available.

Hey, BamBam... have you seen Casino Royale? There's a guy near the beginning, first big chase scene, named Sebastien Foucan who's an incredible runner. I looked him up for stunts, 'cause he was just amazing, and I guess all he really does is run, jump, get though obsticles... stuff like that. Just wondering if you'd seen him and if you know anyone who can do what he does.

And I bet that it's very frustrating when they cut something you and your crew have worked that many hours on. I bow to your skills.
