Forced Perspective - this is an easy to understand video about how to setup and use forced perspective in your films or videos. We also break down how we used the technique on one of our own TV shows.

Major props to Stu Maschwitz, author of The DV Rebel's Guide and filmmaker extraordinaire. His book inspired the interstitials on the above mentioned show, and we discuss the Rebel's guide in this video as well.

So, what exactly is forced perspective? In a nutshell, forced perspective is an in-camera optical illusion to make an object appear farther away, closer, larger or smaller than it actually is, and used for some kind of special effect.
