What do you call the special effect that has more of the same character in one shot?

**MrTeressaBond** · August 23rd, 2006, 19:05

i got Adobe Premiere and a sort of decent computer, but i can alsways do it on a much better PC who belongs to my friend who wont mind at all.

i dont think they wer done by rich kids, go on YouTube and type the keywords, and you'll find very exact examples and very doubtfully done by rich kids.

most likely students then..
hmm, never used premiere…give me a day and i might find out some more info…

**FrierTuck** · August 23rd, 2006, 19:12

yah, if they were rich kids, there parents would have hired real hollywood professionals to help them

hmm, im not that rich, but i do have 3 macs at my disposal with the latest final cut pro, and a dedicated VHS, DVD, monitor suite for testing…

umm ok then.

from one of the comments left by the users, this person asked wat did they use.

one replied Afteraffects and Vegas Video.

dont know if that helps, and also now we know wat we are talking about in a way, what is this effect called then?

I am pretty clueless, but in movies they will usually avoid showing both characters at the same time. Closeups of one, and the other always jsut seems to have their back turned for the moment ....

just some examples here, Star Trek Nemesis, Data was shown with his brother (same actor) many times, Austin Powers i think had some both face showing sceens for one of the three or four roles he played, also, look into Sam Raimis "Fake Shemp" concept

**MrTeressaBond** · August 24th, 2006, 15:52

but i really want to know how to 'stitch up' the images together so it will look like if there was more of the same character in one shot.
