The guys who put this together, counter656, is apparently from China and I don’t know much about them beside the fact that they know how to do amazing stop motion photography. They’ve also integrated some Adobe After Effects into the film as well, which adds a nice touch. Cheers, and Happy Friday
This is the best 3 minutes of your day, and it’s almost midnight so WATCH! Keloid from BLR_VFX on Vimeo. I’m a complete sucker for: Robots Dystopian landscapes Robots with guns Robots shooting guns Awesome looking CGI Goosestepping robots Cool sci-fi guns Regardless, even if you’re not a fan of most of those things this movie kicks ass. But…that’s the sad part, it’s not a movie, or an upcoming movie. It’s simply a demo reel meant to showcase (some pretty darn good) work. Check out Keloid, and the folks responsible over at Big Lazy Robot! Cheers!
Most Americans have heard of Dancing With The Stars” on ABC. I’m sure that some of the guest dancers are surprisingly good, and some that have been not so good. Case in point, Bill Nye. While I’m not a viewer of show I am fan of super smart people, which led me to this video. While I’m sure he’s probably having fun, he’s also displaying an amazing amount of courage to even be on this stage. Be forewarned, it’s painful to watch if you’re a Bill Nye fan! Every time I watch that video I keep thinking she’s going to …
While this clip ISN’T from an upcoming movie (that I know of), it’s proof that you can produce a believable Wonder Woman character on the big screen. There have been quite a few attempts at creating a decent Wonder Woman, whether for big screen or small, that have failed miserably. Why have so many professionals stumbled when it comes to our beloved Diana Prince? She’s one of the oldest and most revered characters in comic-dom, but no one can seem to get it right. Bleeding cool uncovered a casting call for a character that sounds like she could only be …
This is mesmerizing. Great job on the video. GENERATION TO GENERATION from Phillip Montgomery on Vimeo. Cheers!
I thought “School of Rock” was a pretty decent movie if you go into it understanding what you were going to get. While perusing the Intergoogz I came across this video, which I thought was pretty cool considering the movie has been out for over a decade now. Check it… Some folks can’t stand Jack Black, but I’ve always been a fan of his. Also a huge fan of Tenacious D, the band he fronts with the awesomely plain Kyle Gass. Jack has had some really hits and some real bombs, but this movie is cute, funny, and full of …
Most of the time nostalgia always equals something cool. My personal space is filled with things that I’ve collected that remind me of my past. Sometimes it’s hard to let some things go, such as the super special limited edition “Highlander – Directors Personal Cut” VHS tape I got at a Star Trek convention in 1990. While perusing the far reaches of my external hard drives I came across “Reality Bites,” which when I originally saw it, was a pretty cool movie. I was 23 when in 1994 and could personally relate to some of the themes of the movie …
Rob McLellan writes and directs this compelling short focusing on a robot programmed to love and what happens when that love isn’t returned. It’s chilling, thought provoking and refreshing and totally worth the 8 minutes. I love the psychotic C3P0/Kathy Bates from “Misery” mash up vibe. ABE from Rob McLellan on Vimeo. Apparently this is going to become a feature film, and could join the ranks of “Moon,” “Sunshine,” and “Twelve Monkeys” in the straight Sci-Fi category. I’m also digging the actor’s voice who actually mo-capped his performance…very GLaDOS-y. On a side note, if you watch the VFX breakdown I …
When I was young my favorite book was the “Charlie Brown Book of Science Questions and Answers.” This book was amazing, especially to an 8 year old with a curious mind and active imagination! My first understanding of what space was and what it was made up of were learned directly from the pages of this book, with some help from Snoopy and Woodstock. The seeds of my fanatical obsession with space and space exploration were sewn in the hours spent reading this book. The book also made statements about the possibilities of future technologies. For instance, it was proposed …
