| - The Jeopardy logo title was actually scanned from Jeopardy game box used in video, touched up, and inserted into a Videonics titler. - For reasons now forgotten, Matt�s Jeopardy character was called �The Great Blondo� - For the �Weird Al� Yankovic answer on the Jeopardy game, I hooked up the Super Nintendo system to the VCR, and played the game forever until that one answer came up! - Yeah, I drew the empty head with cobwebs. Pathetic drawing isn�t it?! - Yeah, it took a while for the �Potpourri� category to come up as well! - When the �X� is drawn over the dollar sign, I hung up the poster with it on the fridge in front of the camera on the tripod. I played the song on a boom box to get the timing correct! - For the Encyclopedia International shot, I had to capture the frame and import it into photoshop to straighten, because the viewfinder on my original VHS camcorder was crooked. I then imported that into the Videonics titler. - The shot with my family (mom and dad Lynn and Paul Homan and my brother Chad Headley) was difficult to get. I eventually had to push the TV out half-way into the living room and stand behind it. - Again, I mouthed the lyrics along with the boom box in the Attic scenes. - The echo effect and the song editing was amazingly done on my 486 computer using the Wave Editor software that came with the SoundBlaster 16 card. That computer only had a 500 MB hard drive. I guess I just barely managed to fit the song onto it. |
