0:01:15 > 0:01:18with How To Train Your Dragon author Cressida Cowell...
0:01:18 > 0:01:21Duhbrain is in the book but he's not in the film.
0:01:21 > 0:01:22Why did you change that?
0:01:24 > 0:01:27..and can Michael Sheen, super actor, get a prosthetic face
0:01:27 > 0:01:29to fool his own mum and dad?
0:01:29 > 0:01:31- I found it, thank you very much.- OK.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35And get ready for some behind the scenes secrets
0:01:35 > 0:01:38with Hobbit star Adam Brown.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40Get me out of here - I can't stand it any more!
0:01:40 > 0:01:42What do you think about that, Mr Black?
0:01:42 > 0:01:45Those are the magical ingredients, I'd say.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48Yeah, I'd probably say that, too. Pretty bodacious, right?
0:01:48 > 0:01:50- Sca-doosh.- Oh, yeah. Thanks, Jack.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52Are you ready for what's coming next?
0:01:52 > 0:01:55DIY Blockbuster - Part One. Sca-doosh!
0:01:59 > 0:02:00Action.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03We're giving groups of film-makers the chance to make a short film,
0:02:03 > 0:02:04armed with just a camera,
0:02:04 > 0:02:07a script and some home-made props.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11But, little do they know, they're in for a big surprise...
0:02:11 > 0:02:14You didn't know I was coming?
0:02:14 > 0:02:16..when we give them something spectacular
0:02:16 > 0:02:18to turn their home movie
0:02:18 > 0:02:20into a DIY Blockbuster.
0:02:24 > 0:02:25- Action.- Aaargh!
0:02:25 > 0:02:29Yagmur, Stina, Misbah and Nada are making a monster movie.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32A group of friends find a cursed leaf...
0:02:32 > 0:02:34Look, I got the leaf!
0:02:34 > 0:02:36..which changes one of the friends into a monster.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38SHE GROWLS
0:02:38 > 0:02:41Filming has begun, with Stina playing the lead role...
0:02:41 > 0:02:42- Cut.- What?
0:02:42 > 0:02:44..but what the team don't know is
0:02:44 > 0:02:47we've arranged a DIY Blockbuster surprise
0:02:47 > 0:02:50to make their movie a monster hit.
0:02:50 > 0:02:54So, zoom in like that, then after Yagmur prods her,
0:02:54 > 0:02:55You just zoom out slow.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57And then you pan up.
0:02:57 > 0:02:58The team are busy filming...
0:02:58 > 0:03:00- ..one, action.- Is she OK?
0:03:00 > 0:03:02- I don't know.- Stina?
0:03:03 > 0:03:05..when we give them their DIY Blockbuster surprise.
0:03:11 > 0:03:12Meet Jonathan Faulkner,
0:03:12 > 0:03:16state-of-the-art visual effects expert on films like Harry Potter...
0:03:17 > 0:03:20..and Guardians Of The Galaxy.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Using computer graphics like these, Jonathan is going to help the team
0:03:23 > 0:03:27create a scary monster to star in their movie.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30Because only the monster will be animated,
0:03:30 > 0:03:32the team set about filming the backgrounds...
0:03:32 > 0:03:35Stina, can you just come and run past the camera, please?
0:03:35 > 0:03:38..which isn't as simple as it sounds.
0:03:38 > 0:03:42So, what do we have to have in the scene? Not Stina?
0:03:42 > 0:03:44Nothing at all.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Because we're going to put the creature in later.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48- What?- Yeah.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50Let's go and measure this telephone box.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52With the creature being added later,
0:03:52 > 0:03:55each shot takes lots of planning and equipment,
0:03:55 > 0:03:58so the next few hours are a steep learning curve for the team.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01Macbeth boards and mirror balls
0:04:01 > 0:04:04and 360 cameras.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06Things I'd never even heard of.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09To make things more difficult, the team have to film
0:04:09 > 0:04:11and act with a monster that isn't there.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14If a character was running away from a monster,
0:04:14 > 0:04:18the character would have to run away, but it's being chased by nothing.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20So you have to use your imagination.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22- Action.- Stina!
0:04:22 > 0:04:24You're being such a baby. Stop!
0:04:24 > 0:04:26Jonathan decides to give them a helping hand.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32- He goes and does that, like... - Like jazz hands!- ..like jazz hands!
0:04:32 > 0:04:35And he makes the face, as well!
0:04:40 > 0:04:43Don't do the jazzy thing with your fingers!
0:04:43 > 0:04:46It was working for a moment - you were sort of...
0:04:46 > 0:04:49And Jonathan's got another idea to make the monster look more real.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53The monster is going to...
0:04:53 > 0:04:54knock the boxes over.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57Cardboard boxes? Why? Why?
0:04:57 > 0:04:59Not sure the team are convinced.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Those boxes...don't even get... Oh.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05Why would there be a pile of cardboard boxes in a park?
0:05:06 > 0:05:10- It's one of those cardboard box parks.- No, it's not!
0:05:10 > 0:05:12'He insisted that it was the right thing to do,'
0:05:12 > 0:05:16- so we went with him because... - He's the expert.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Yagmur, come on!
0:05:18 > 0:05:19Here comes the monster.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21Boxes!
0:05:22 > 0:05:25We couldn't see you. That worked very well.
0:05:26 > 0:05:27Action.
0:05:27 > 0:05:28SHE SCREAMS
0:05:28 > 0:05:32They have one more scene to shoot, with no monster.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35That's a wrap in the park. What's next?
0:05:36 > 0:05:40How do you think we are going to animate the character?
0:05:40 > 0:05:43Computer generated imagery.
0:05:43 > 0:05:44Spot on.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46Who is going to make it move?
0:05:47 > 0:05:50- You.- Me? I've got a better idea.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55Still to come on DIY Blockbuster Part Two -
0:05:55 > 0:05:58there's monster moves from Misbah...
0:05:58 > 0:06:00but can he terrify the team?
0:06:00 > 0:06:02You seem like a nice monster.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05And find out what their monster looks like.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07A potato, bear, mouse hybrid.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09Imagine that.
0:06:15 > 0:06:16HE ROARS
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Oh, sorry about that, just channelling my inner monster.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21So, popcorn - do we like it?
0:06:21 > 0:06:24Yes, of course we do, but what flavour?
0:06:24 > 0:06:26I'm thinking toffee, ketchup.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Toffup, ketchee!
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Hey, popcorn mashup.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35What would be yours?
0:06:35 > 0:06:37My dream popcorn flavour would be banana,
0:06:37 > 0:06:41and that's really strange because I don't like bananas in real life.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Chocolate, or candyfloss,
0:06:43 > 0:06:45or apple or strawberry.
0:06:45 > 0:06:49Now I've got into it, all right? Um, what else?
0:06:49 > 0:06:50Marmite popcorn.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53Mint chocolate chip with extra, extra chocolate sauce.
0:06:53 > 0:06:54I'd like to try that.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56- Spearmint.- No!
0:06:56 > 0:06:58Bubble gum.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01I'm not sure if they would taste nice, though.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Cheesy, salty.
0:07:05 > 0:07:06Bacon.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Cola flavoured popcorn.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Chocolate ice cream popcorn.
0:07:10 > 0:07:14- Or mango. - Oh, I was going to say mango!
0:07:14 > 0:07:16A roast dinner flavoured popcorn.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19- Strawberry.- I've said that.- So?
0:07:23 > 0:07:24Curry.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Curry? Liking that one!
0:07:29 > 0:07:32Random Red Carpet!
0:07:32 > 0:07:34We ask the questions so you don't have to.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37Keira, Keira - over here!
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Fancy a bit of curry popcorn, Keira?
0:07:39 > 0:07:40Wow! Yep, yep!
0:07:40 > 0:07:43- Like it?- Oh, this is horrible!
0:07:43 > 0:07:45Random Red Carpet!
0:07:45 > 0:07:48It doesn't get much more random that this.
0:07:58 > 0:07:59..the Rock Hard Quiz?

0:08:37 > 0:08:40What type of fish are most dragons afraid of?
0:08:40 > 0:08:41Eels.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44How do Toothless and Hiccup get Red Death to fly?
0:08:44 > 0:08:49Um, by shooting at it and aggravating it and flying in the air.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52What is the name of the dragon they find in the nest?
0:08:52 > 0:08:53Um, the Red Death.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55In their first lesson with Gobber,
0:08:55 > 0:08:58what does he say is their most important equipment?
0:08:58 > 0:09:00A shield.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05The end of his tail.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44And the winner is Finley.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48Yep, dragons rule!
0:09:48 > 0:09:51And for all you left-handers out there, you might want to know
0:09:51 > 0:09:54that Hiccup from the How To Train Your Dragon movies
0:09:54 > 0:09:56is also left-handed.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59Letting you into a little Cinemaniac secret, there.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01And if you're a dragon rider, then stay tuned
0:10:01 > 0:10:03cos you're going to love what's coming up next.
0:10:05 > 0:10:09These two Cinemaniacs, Oscar and Nikita, met up with
0:10:09 > 0:10:12How To Train Your Dragon's author, Cressida Cowell,
0:10:12 > 0:10:15and the film's producer, Bonnie Arnold, to ask...
0:10:18 > 0:10:20- Hello.- Hello.
0:10:20 > 0:10:26On page 15, it says that it was quite heroic to train a dragon.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29However, in the movie, Vikings were at war with the dragons.
0:10:29 > 0:10:31I'll take care of this.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33Why did you make those changes?
0:10:33 > 0:10:35I think one of the challenges was
0:10:35 > 0:10:41to try to make Hiccup the first of his tribe
0:10:41 > 0:10:45to do something, rather than it just be already an accepted thing,
0:10:45 > 0:10:49and we felt like that was a bigger, more exciting choice for the film,
0:10:49 > 0:10:53so we made a few changes in order to make it more cinematic.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56The book starts with Hiccup going to get a dragon.
0:10:56 > 0:11:00The film starts with the dragons actually attacking the village.
0:11:02 > 0:11:03Dragons.
0:11:03 > 0:11:08Things that work in a book might not necessarily work in a movie,
0:11:08 > 0:11:12and that is often why decisions are made.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14A very obvious one is that Toothless, in the books,
0:11:14 > 0:11:16is tiny and you can put him down your waistcoat
0:11:16 > 0:11:17and he's really naughty.
0:11:17 > 0:11:21And the decision to make Toothless bigger was taken because,
0:11:21 > 0:11:24if you're making a movie in 3-D,
0:11:24 > 0:11:29in which there are dragons, you kind of want your hero
0:11:29 > 0:11:32to be able to get on top of the dragon and ride it.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35Whereas, in a book, they're just a bunch of descriptions.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39On page 19 it shows that Snotlout was like quite a big bully,
0:11:39 > 0:11:42but in the movie he was just a minor annoyance.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45I've never seen anyone mess up that badly. That helped.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Thank you, thank you. I was trying.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50To be honest, you only have about 90 minutes to tell the story.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52But could he be a bit more of a bully?
0:11:52 > 0:11:55Well, I think the thing with Snotlout is you understand him
0:11:55 > 0:11:58pretty quickly, so I don't think you need a lot of storytelling
0:11:58 > 0:12:00to tell who he is.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03Dogsbreath the Duhbrain is in the book, but he's not in the film.
0:12:03 > 0:12:04Why did you change that?
0:12:04 > 0:12:07To be honest, it was just a decision we made about, again,
0:12:07 > 0:12:09not having too many characters in the story,
0:12:09 > 0:12:12because you just don't have time to tell all of that story.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15And we really just tried to make it - keep it very simple.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18There weren't enough girls in the group,
0:12:18 > 0:12:21'so we gave Tuffnut a twin sister,
0:12:21 > 0:12:23'because it was...it just made sense for us
0:12:23 > 0:12:25'to have a mix of boys and girls.'
0:12:25 > 0:12:28'So, Dogsbreath, was he a favourite character of yours?'
0:12:28 > 0:12:30I suppose so.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32I know it's annoying, sometimes, to people who want things
0:12:32 > 0:12:36to be exactly the same as they saw it in a book,
0:12:36 > 0:12:39but some of these things are less important
0:12:39 > 0:12:42than the things that happened in the film,
0:12:42 > 0:12:43that came out, that were right,
0:12:43 > 0:12:46and that were true to the books.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Are you happy with the changes that have been made
0:12:48 > 0:12:49from the book to the film?
0:12:49 > 0:12:55The important point to get across is that what you want in a movie
0:12:55 > 0:12:58is the things that you really care about in your books.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00The things that I minded about my books
0:13:00 > 0:13:02were about looking after the environment...
0:13:02 > 0:13:04About peace.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07..about peace, about Hiccup being a leader who wants peace.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10all of that is out there in the film,
0:13:10 > 0:13:14and those are the things that I really cared about.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17Great grilling by Oscar and Nikita. Good work, guys.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19Come on.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22Cressida Cowell seemed pretty happy with what they did
0:13:22 > 0:13:24with her books, so we thought it would be cool
0:13:24 > 0:13:27to meet the writer of the very first How To Train Your Dragon movie.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31And that's this guy. Meet Dean DeBlois,
0:13:31 > 0:13:34co-writer and director of How To Train Your Dragon.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39Yes, it works!
0:13:39 > 0:13:41Now, Dean made such a great job of writing
0:13:41 > 0:13:44How To Train Your Dragon
0:13:44 > 0:13:47that I've decided to put his movie writing skills to the test,
0:13:47 > 0:13:50by challenging him to come up with a top movie plot
0:13:50 > 0:13:54based on four randomly selected story ingredients.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Yep, it's time for Writer Roulette.
0:14:00 > 0:14:04Well, it's a story about an ant who has the very daunting challenge
0:14:04 > 0:14:06of having to cross from one park to the other.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09It's a cloudy day, he doesn't know if it's going to rain and he's going to
0:14:09 > 0:14:13get swept away in the floods of rainwater that will gather
0:14:13 > 0:14:16around in the park, and so he tries to use the buttons
0:14:16 > 0:14:20on the mobile phone to call up the weather app,
0:14:20 > 0:14:21to see whether or not he's in trouble,
0:14:21 > 0:14:25or if he can make it across in the hour it will take him
0:14:25 > 0:14:26to get across the park.
0:14:26 > 0:14:27Nice one, Dean.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30Still to come on Cinemaniacs -
0:14:30 > 0:14:34we head behind the scenes of The Hobbit, with actor Adam Brown.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37Now I have a huge phobia of fish.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41Find out how to fly your own helicopter
0:14:41 > 0:14:43in The Secret Of Movie Making.
0:14:45 > 0:14:49And super actor Michael Sheen tries to prove he really is super
0:14:49 > 0:14:52by disguising himself to fool his own mum and dad.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57But, first, it's Part Two of DIY Blockbuster.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01Four film makers have been given
0:15:01 > 0:15:02the DIY Blockbuster surprise
0:15:02 > 0:15:06of visual effects expert Jonathan Fawkner,
0:15:06 > 0:15:08to create a monster for their movie.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11After a crash course in filming things that aren't really there...
0:15:11 > 0:15:15Why would there be a pile of cardboard boxes in a park?
0:15:15 > 0:15:18..they're struggling to think outside the box.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22Hello, guys. Welcome to our studio.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25Now they've filmed all the real life footage,
0:15:25 > 0:15:28Jonathan's brought them to a motion capture studio
0:15:28 > 0:15:30to add the creature into the scenes...
0:15:30 > 0:15:33Let's get you into the suit.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35..and Misbah is going to play the creature.
0:15:35 > 0:15:39Welcome to our monster. What do you think?
0:15:39 > 0:15:41What?
0:15:41 > 0:15:44'It looked like a caterpillar suit, but it's not.'
0:15:44 > 0:15:47But this isn't fancy dress - the spots on the suit
0:15:47 > 0:15:50are what the computer recognises to give the monster movement...
0:15:50 > 0:15:53That is you, there.
0:15:53 > 0:15:54..and, at the flick of the switch,
0:15:54 > 0:15:57the team get their first glimpse of their monster...
0:15:57 > 0:16:00Misbah, you're moving. Oh, my gosh!
0:16:00 > 0:16:02..and are impressed.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06'It actually seemed like it was real and I really loved it.'
0:16:06 > 0:16:09With everything set up, it's time for Misbah to get into character.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12Motion capture rolling. Action.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23Cut. You seem like a nice monster.
0:16:23 > 0:16:24Be angry.
0:16:24 > 0:16:28'I don't usually get really angry a lot,'
0:16:28 > 0:16:31so it was kind of difficult for me to get into that rage.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33Action.
0:16:33 > 0:16:34HE GROWLS
0:16:34 > 0:16:38Following his director's advice, Misbah throws himself into the part.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40- Like, "Argh!"- Rargh!
0:16:40 > 0:16:43HE GROWLS
0:16:44 > 0:16:46Cut. Yeah, I liked that last one.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49He did really well. if I was in that position, I wouldn't do anything
0:16:49 > 0:16:53- but, you know, you did very well. - Thanks.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55The team's finished, but it takes several weeks
0:16:55 > 0:16:57of intense special effects work
0:16:57 > 0:17:02before they find out just how impressive their monster looks.
0:17:02 > 0:17:03And here's the finished result!
0:17:06 > 0:17:08MONSTER ROARS
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Yep, that's pretty scary.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13I liked the way it moved, the way it looked - especially the eyes,
0:17:13 > 0:17:15because they were really realistic.
0:17:15 > 0:17:20It looked like a potato, bear, mouse hybrid.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23We gave the team a state-of-the-art CGI monster for their movie.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25They've coped with the kit...
0:17:25 > 0:17:28'Macbeth boards and mirror balls.'
0:17:28 > 0:17:29..and mastered the moves...
0:17:29 > 0:17:31- You know, you did very well.- Thanks.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33..but what was the best bit?
0:17:34 > 0:17:37I hate to admit this - the thing that I liked most
0:17:37 > 0:17:40was when the monster knocked over the boxes.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47I can't believe I'm saying this.
0:17:47 > 0:17:51You can find out the team's finished movie on the CBBC website.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56So this is where I give you guys three top tips
0:17:56 > 0:17:57for framing your videos.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59Tip number one - bad framing.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04This is an example of bad framing. You can't even see my face.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06Where's my head gone? Need to push it up.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08We can only see one eye.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10No-one wants to see up your nose.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14Tip number two - good framing.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16This is an example of good framing.
0:18:16 > 0:18:17You can see my whole face
0:18:17 > 0:18:19and we can also see where I am, as well.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22Uh, there was a massive sign in the way. I'm going to do it again.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24Tip number three - fun framing.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26This is an example of fun framing.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28Doesn't it look super-duper cool?
0:18:28 > 0:18:29Hello, everyone.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31You can also turn your camera to the side
0:18:31 > 0:18:33and this is also another fun framing.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35It looks like we're in a superhero movie.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37To infinity and beyond!
0:18:37 > 0:18:41There are my three top tips for framing your videos.
0:18:41 > 0:18:42Now, this.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47Let's head behind the scenes with the Hobbit.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58I'm Adam Brown. I play Ori in the Hobbit.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00HE BELCHES
0:19:00 > 0:19:02'Before we did any type of filming,'
0:19:02 > 0:19:05we did what was called dwarf boot camp,
0:19:05 > 0:19:08where 13 actors who were playing the dwarfs
0:19:08 > 0:19:12'did horse riding lessons, stunt training, movement training.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15'So, we learnt how to walk as dwarfs.'
0:19:15 > 0:19:17This was prior to getting the costume on,
0:19:17 > 0:19:20'and then, suddenly, as you put those boots on,
0:19:20 > 0:19:22'there's no other way of just moving
0:19:22 > 0:19:24'without walking heavily like a dwarf.'
0:19:26 > 0:19:27What do we do now?
0:19:28 > 0:19:30- Hold your breath.- Hold my breath?
0:19:30 > 0:19:32What do you mean?
0:19:32 > 0:19:34THEY YELL
0:19:39 > 0:19:42'In The Desolation Of Smaug,'
0:19:42 > 0:19:46there is a scene where the dwarfs hide in barrels,
0:19:46 > 0:19:48'and we are covered by fish.'
0:19:48 > 0:19:50THEY GRUMBLE
0:19:50 > 0:19:53Now, I have a huge phobia of fish,
0:19:53 > 0:19:56'and the fish came down and they just covered the top of me.'
0:19:56 > 0:19:59They just kept going and going and going and going,
0:19:59 > 0:20:01to the point where they said, "Cut."
0:20:01 > 0:20:03And I just shouted, "Get me out! Get me out of here!
0:20:03 > 0:20:05"I can't stand it any more!
0:20:05 > 0:20:07'And, at the end of the day,'
0:20:07 > 0:20:10I absolutely stunk of fish!
0:20:14 > 0:20:17All these Cinemaniacs secrets -
0:20:17 > 0:20:19and here is one more.
0:20:19 > 0:20:23Introducing Mike Tucker, special effects expert extraordinaire,
0:20:23 > 0:20:27here to show you how to create special effects Hollywood-style in...
0:20:30 > 0:20:33Today we're going to show you how to fly your very own helicopter.
0:20:33 > 0:20:37Well, how to make it look like you're doing it, obviously.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40So grab yourself a couple of friends and let's get started.
0:20:40 > 0:20:44OK, the concept of this effect is called forced perspective,
0:20:44 > 0:20:49and it's something that you may have seen in Lord Of The Rings
0:20:49 > 0:20:52as a way of getting small people and big people
0:20:52 > 0:20:55to be in frame at the same time.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58To make this effect you really only need a model helicopter
0:20:58 > 0:21:00and some books, big ones.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03But if you want to make it look extra good then grab yourself
0:21:03 > 0:21:06some black and yellow paint and a brush.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09Cut a circle out of some old cardboard.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11And, if you happen to have them hanging around the house,
0:21:11 > 0:21:16a hi-vis vest, a couple of ping pong bats and some ear muffs.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18Step one, get your helicopter into position
0:21:18 > 0:21:21by putting it on a table in front of the camera.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25It needs to be close to the lens so it looks big enough
0:21:25 > 0:21:27when you look through the camera.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30You might need some of your books for this to get it the right height.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33Just a little bit higher. We're nearly there.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37You have to do quite a bit of trial and error. How is that looking?
0:21:37 > 0:21:38Yeah, that's pretty good.
0:21:38 > 0:21:42Step two - this is the bit where you make it look extra good.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Paint your piece of cardboard so it looks like a helipad
0:21:45 > 0:21:48and get someone to dress up in the costume.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51- We have a safety vest. - OK.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53Helicopters make a lot of noise,
0:21:53 > 0:21:55so you're also going to need your ear defenders.
0:21:56 > 0:22:00Don't think these are really table tennis bats.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03Step three, get that someone to stand a distance
0:22:03 > 0:22:06away from the camera so they look much smaller.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09You can make any final adjustments at this stage.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11Go back a bit. Stop.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Now, if she starts doing...
0:22:16 > 0:22:18Turn as if you're looking that way.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Yeah.
0:22:20 > 0:22:23- That's better. - Action.
0:22:23 > 0:22:24And we have lift off.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28Get someone to lift the helicopter off the table
0:22:28 > 0:22:32then, hey, presto! You're flying your very own helicopter.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37Greetings, Cinemaniacs!
0:22:37 > 0:22:40It's all right, it's only me. Just channelling my inner Gandalf.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42Coming up next we've got some more movie trickery,
0:22:42 > 0:22:47this time with our very own super actor - Hollywood's Mr Sheen.
0:22:47 > 0:22:51And now the star of Alice In Wonderland, Tron,
0:22:51 > 0:22:55and Twilight, all round good guy
0:22:55 > 0:22:59Michael Sheen, Super Actor!
0:22:59 > 0:23:02'For today's super actor challenge I've come to Port Talbot in Wales,
0:23:02 > 0:23:06'which is where I'm from so I'm kind of pretty famous around these parts.
0:23:06 > 0:23:11'I've even got my own mural. Yeah, it's that one. I know!
0:23:11 > 0:23:14'The crew have taken to the street to see who knows me.'
0:23:14 > 0:23:18Michael Sheen from, um... Badlands, is it?
0:23:18 > 0:23:20Michael Sheen, yes.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23Excuse me, is there a Jersey bakery around here?
0:23:23 > 0:23:25- Do you know Jersey Bakery? - Yes.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28'Hang on a second can we cut there? Who's this guy?
0:23:28 > 0:23:30'He's been hanging around for ages.
0:23:30 > 0:23:34'Actually, it's me. I'm in prosthetics and a costume
0:23:34 > 0:23:36'and no-one's recognised me.
0:23:36 > 0:23:40'But that's not the challenge, no. It's much more difficult.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43'The crew are going to pretend to be from some random TV news show
0:23:43 > 0:23:45'to interview my mum and dad.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47'And I have to try and speak to them
0:23:47 > 0:23:49'not once not twice but three times
0:23:49 > 0:23:51'without them recognising me!
0:23:51 > 0:23:55'Prosthetics aside, this will take all my acting skills.
0:23:55 > 0:23:56'Welcome to...
0:24:00 > 0:24:02'So how did I end up looking like this guy, anyway?
0:24:02 > 0:24:05'With the help of a few pros in the film industry
0:24:05 > 0:24:09'I've been transformed from this handsome fella
0:24:09 > 0:24:11'to this one.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13'All for this week's challenge.'
0:24:13 > 0:24:17We applied the prosthetic nose and little cheek pieces to Michael
0:24:17 > 0:24:20cos Michael's got these really nice little indents.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24'And my character is going to be mostly, er...
0:24:24 > 0:24:26'lost builder?
0:24:26 > 0:24:29'I'm going to warm up my act with some members of the public.'
0:24:29 > 0:24:31I'll see you later.
0:24:31 > 0:24:32Michael Sheen...
0:24:32 > 0:24:34'My disguise is still working well.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37'In fact, I'm ready to get a bit braver.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39'Let's ditch the hat and coat.'
0:24:39 > 0:24:42Yeah, Michael Sheen. He does come down here quite a lot, actually.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45I've seen him around and I think his father still lives around here.
0:24:45 > 0:24:49'Still going strong. Now, where's my mum and dad?'
0:24:49 > 0:24:52- Our Michael. - Michael Sheen.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54'Ah, they're still there,
0:24:54 > 0:24:56'answering random questions about me
0:24:56 > 0:24:58'from the TV interviewer.
0:24:58 > 0:24:59'Which means it's time for...'
0:25:02 > 0:25:04What do you like about living in Port Talbot?
0:25:04 > 0:25:06I love the beach.
0:25:06 > 0:25:10'To succeed I've got to make them believe that I'm just a random bloke
0:25:10 > 0:25:13'and not their own son - three times!'
0:25:13 > 0:25:15They perform it and they perform when...
0:25:15 > 0:25:19'Dad's still droning on, so I'm going to dive straight in.'
0:25:19 > 0:25:22Excuse me, is there a Jersey bakery around here?
0:25:22 > 0:25:25I don't know. I think it may be down the bottom.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27- Down the bottom? - There is a bakery.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30- Thank you. - It's OK.
0:25:30 > 0:25:31'Yay! Fooled them once.
0:25:31 > 0:25:34'Going to interrupt their interview again.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36'I wonder if they'll smell a rat.'
0:25:36 > 0:25:39I can see you're in the middle of something but I'm much obliged,
0:25:39 > 0:25:42- I found it, thank you very much. - OK.- Thank you.- Righto, fine.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45'Woohoo! Fooled them twice!
0:25:45 > 0:25:46'Let's see if I can go
0:25:46 > 0:25:47'for the hat-trick.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49'I'll just stand right here in front of them.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51'Surely they'll recognise me now.'
0:25:51 > 0:25:53I didn't recognise him...
0:25:53 > 0:25:55So if Michael changed his nose and his hair
0:25:55 > 0:25:58do you think you'd recognise him?
0:25:58 > 0:26:00- I don't know!- I don't know.
0:26:00 > 0:26:03'And, yes! Fooled them three times!
0:26:04 > 0:26:06'Come on, Mum, this is ridiculous!'
0:26:06 > 0:26:09So you'd recognise him if he was stood right next to you?
0:26:09 > 0:26:10Yeah, that's right.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13That... I don't believe it!
0:26:13 > 0:26:15I don't believe it!
0:26:15 > 0:26:17It's a good wig, that, isn't it?
0:26:17 > 0:26:18THEY LAUGH
0:26:18 > 0:26:20Your own son.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23- I know! - Yeah. And your teeth.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25'Today's challenge started with a wig,
0:26:25 > 0:26:27'a false nose,
0:26:27 > 0:26:28'and some very good make-up,
0:26:28 > 0:26:31'and ended up with me fooling my mum and dad
0:26:31 > 0:26:33'not once, not twice, but three times!'
0:26:33 > 0:26:37And so the verdict is undeniable! I am truly...
0:26:44 > 0:26:46Next time on Cinemaniacs...
0:26:46 > 0:26:49this group of movie makers step back in time
0:26:49 > 0:26:52when they get a DIY blockbuster surprise.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54The film goes through like that.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57- Come on!- I am not fast. - Yeah, no kidding!
0:26:57 > 0:27:00We hear all about brand-new movie Big Hero 6.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02Here's the best part...
0:27:05 > 0:27:08And super actor Michal Sheen struggles to hit his mark.
0:27:08 > 0:27:12Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more!
0:27:13 > 0:27:15HE LAUGHS
