I had a chat with Stephanie Argy and Alec Boehm last week of Mental Slapstick, a film production company in Los Angeles. They've just completed a film called "Gandhi at the Bat", an incredible short film that has the look of an old newsreel. They discuss the technical aspects of the effects and how they created such a convincing period movie on a small budget. They're such nice people and overflowing with talent. They give a few tips and tricks too!

Don't miss the great 'Before and After' pix.
