The Horrors of the Alpha Channel [video]
- staindk 4y agoAll of Captain Disillusion's videos are great but this one seemed more technical than most - thought that could make it a good candidate to post to HN. There's some good discussion about it on Reddit too[1] [1] https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/yaq2n7 https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/yaq2n7
- Tomte 4y agoIt's part of a technical series, very sporadic. I remember one on resolution. The two greatest Captain Disillusion videos are "The World's greatest Blenderer" and "Flight of the Navigator", of course :-)
- db48x 4y agoNo, clearly the “Back to the Future” episodes were better than the “Flight of the Navigator” episode!
- ClassyJacket 4y agoThis is the style of his (relatively) new-ish "CD /" series. They focus on really specific aspects of video production, rather than special effects in general. Everything he makes is great.

- fxtentacle 4y agoBig fan here :) I very much enjoyed the one where he explains how music videos are made ... by inviting a Japanese pop band and making their music videos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Cz8CjLq0fQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Cz8CjLq0fQ
- suntuba 4y agoI find it intriguing that he's been doing the CD character for 15 years now.
- bergenty 4y agoIt’s his job, kinda like Bill Nye.
- Tomte 4y agoWith little change! When I'm watching some of my favorite YouTubers, they have changed both delivery and looks quite a bit. The Captain stays the same. Alan does so, too, but I suppose that's because he isn't paid enough to afford changing anything.
- cowmix 4y agoChanging The Captain would be like Jim Henson changing Kermit the Frog. No, no, no.
