Rube Goldberg Machine – Behind The Scenes!
You’ve watched the video (multiple times), been wowed by our Rube Goldberg Machine, marveled at its crazy ingenious design, and wondered just how exactly we got the whole contraption to actually work.
Well, today is your lucky day: the band, in collaboration with the film crew and machine engineers, have put together a feature about the machine for you to enjoy. The interactive application includes photos, videos, and behind-the-scenes facts about every phase of the making of the video from start to finish. What’s more, we culled many of the details from fan requests and discussions when creating the application.
The result is an interactive floor plan that we think is as entertaining as it is informative, and we hope you’ll feel the same! Check it out by clicking below:
Huh, no comments on this, weird. (Assuming it got good hits I guess people probably linked directly to the page itself so visitors never saw this post and the opportunity for comments.)
So while I have an opportunity for my own vote to rule the waves, my vote is that the interactivity isn’t really worth the effort it must have been to make it… I’d just have been happy with a sequence of pages to click through to see all the content (the interactivity just makes it take more clicks to see it all). But whatever! The content itself is totally worth it and interesting to see, especially the videos.
Also I appreciate the effort that went into the detailed credits page. Even though I don’t know anyone involved I went through and read it pretty closely, seeing who worked on multiple things and stuff like that. But even if I wasn’t curious about it, mad props for giving credit like that.
Inspiring work as always but the steadicam guy gets credited at 177? Beneath 20 PAs. I’m beginning to understand why you left the label.
I had a sick day from work today so I finally got to browse through all of it. I like seeing the layout of the machine. There are so many details I miss when watching the video. It would be neat to have a book of all these photos.
I can’t find the floorplan video was it deleted. The link take sme back to the original video.
Ditto what beansdad said. Loved the video. A class of grade 5/6s was asked to view your video on YouTube to learn about Rube Goldberg.
