Thank you so much, Rosy. I feel like you really get me :)

I'm a fan of your work! I LOVED the telenovela spin you gave to the video. As a Latina woman who grew up on novelas, I lit up in laughter! I appreciate that you made sure to subscribe twice ;-) haha! You make it enjoyable to learn. I am so impressed at how you manage to add social-justice or racial-justice awareness through sharp and clever scripts, all while teaching us about technology and film as an art form. I don't think people understand how serious debunking videos really is. Certainly it's so much fun watching you debunk them! But there are so many videos online that confuse people on what's real or not real and they may make the life-and-death decisions based on it. You're inpiring others to think more critically or participate in this art form with honesty.Your work is consequential, important and meaningful. Thank you!

Yeah, lots of busses in my area seem to have that. I guess people bike to places and take the bus as a leg in the journey...

Captain Disillusion

That's real sound from the street in that moment! Worked out well, heh.

I had an opportunity to make it the correct car, but I was too lazy and also thought it would be fun to leave as a little clue for keen observers :P

Yep, just a still tripod shot with fake post wiggling. Except for the pan following the car - that's a real camera move, but also just a pan on tripod.

I could do a sort of walkthrough of the finished AE project to show how it's set up, I suppose!

Filming the last part on a separate day explains the car changing behind the bus... :)

The most amazing part is that... it's real... You can tell by the <insert asinine="" here="" reason="">.</insert>

I like the bird chirping at the end. Nice touch.

I still can't believe that this potential human harvester bike shelf can be set up on the front of this bus....

If that's a tripod-mounted and locked camera with motion added as an effect, I'm really impressed. And on my fifth viewing I'm still not noticing anything like parallax, so I'm really impressed.
