    watching my inspiration scene again.  it looks like lighting is teal?  and  orangie?

    Yeah, teal & orange sounds right.  Pretty good scenes.  What was that sound at ~4:13?  Sounds like the Wookie in "Star Wars" ... 

    As an aside, I live near Ellington Field in the Houston area, home to the 147th Attack Wing, a unit of the Texas Air National Guard.  So we have fighter jets and big helicopters, like those in the video, flying over all the time, nobody even looks up - and they can be loud.  But when the WWII B-25's and Japanese Zeroes show up for the air shows, everybody parks on the side of the road to watch (and save the $10 admission).  Now if one of the copters does the "Transformer" thing, people would probably pay attention.

    I don't think I'm up to doing the animation, but this five minute highlight footage is sure inspiring.  "The movie has three sensational race sequences, so well photographed by John Toll that we feel able to float effortlessly a few feet away from the competing boats and see everything. There are shots and camera angles here so spectacular they amazed me; knowing what I know about cameras and photography, I wasn't able to figure out how the cinematographer got the shot."  (Roger Ebert, 1992)  “Watching sailboat racing is like watching grass grow.”  Maybe so, but racing a sailboat is definitely not like that.

    Great stuff, especially the retro rocket ships, e.g. starting at 17:26.  Some great models available, one of which inspired me to do this 2 minute animation:

    Glad you like them.  I'm a fan of a whole bunch of similar imitations.  There are too many to mention them all.  The old serials are part of my inspiration for Brash Lonergan and Moxie Espinosa (because he is Brash and she has Moxie!).  George Lucas has made no secret that Commander Cody (Radar Men on the Moon) inspired him.

    Here are a few of many.

    - Crash Corigan's adventures in the  Undersea Kingdom  https://youtu.be/V6SD2gVh5_4

                (watch the Crash Corrigan trailer at least as far as the line "Go ahead and ram!")

    - Rocky Jones, Space Ranger  https://youtu.be/T0l9J9ZuHbk

    - Radar Men from the Moon https://youtu.be/H2Qbdp5GMIg

     

    EDIT - Can't stop with three

    - Batman - https://youtu.be/G6Zo_BaxTsk

    - The Phantom - https://youtu.be/p0dJztP9z-w

    - SOS Coast Guard - https://youtu.be/yeMakhtuCOw

    - Perils of Nyoka - https://youtu.be/eP34SD6FY8k

     

    Should give a warning and disclaimer.  The old serials by Republic were made decades ago.  They contain some material that by today's standards are offensive or insensitive.

    i ordered me one of those snowball microphones, so looking up some great voice actors

    finding these inspiring.

    anazing stuff, no synthesizers, no screaming bee

    link ignores the start time,  the voice acting is near the end.
    at 9:50 he reads trump's tweets as Thanos.  lol

    Yes, voice actors can be amazing.  I've mentioned this before, but the best voice acting I've seen is the original "Toy Story", in particular this scene with Tom Hanks and Tim Allen (and BTW, our 48 Hour Film Contest team name is "Perfect Time to Panic Productions"):

    More on voice actors.  The great Hank Azaria marvels at the skills of Mel Blanc. with an example.

    Truly impressive.  Azaria's comment reminds me of the line in "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid", where Butch is watching the Super Posse track them thru ... everything.. "I couldn't do that.  Could you do that?  How can they do that?"

    And BTW, my wife & I still giggle thinking about Azaria's role in "The Birdcage" ... 

    Armand (Robin Williams): You look like Lucy's stunt double.

    Agador (Azaria): [dancing around in red wig cleaning] No actually I'm a combination of Lucy and Ricky

    my whole sciff universe was inspired by an AC/DC song. (hells bells)  
    furter refined by a he man cartoon episode. over 30 years ago. no dvd back then  i may never find that episode 

  • DiomedeDiomede Posts: 15,073

    That is cool, Misty.  I wonder if the old He Man episodes are catalogued and available on one of the streaming services.  Perhaps Netflix or Amazon Prime?  Might be able to find it.

    Here is an ad for short screenwriting projects.  I haven’t checked it out, but maybe someone here is interested.

    One of my favorite comic series as a kid was "Classics Illustrated".  Much later, around 1990, they brought out a newly illustrated series, including "Moby Dick", with some great illustrations by Bill Sienkiewicz.  If you do this search and look at "Images", you get an idea of it:

    "Bill Sienkiewicz moby dick"
