    That second one, "Tears of the Dragon" is very good.  We go to a Houston pub style music venue to hear acts like that, although a little less well known.  Good voices, good guitar, good lyrics.  Like this:

    I just watched a few episode of this last night. Pretty interesting - and certainly inspiring for animating!

    I always liked that video: RUN DMC - Walk This Way ft. Aerosmith.  Years ago I mentioned it to my 18 year old nephew-in-law, and he explained to me what an old fuddy duddy I was.  Sort of like my uncle in the 60's who thought The Beatles were a one hit wonder ("Yesterday").  I think he was a Sinatra fan, "I did It My Way" ... (Sid Vicious covered it!)

    I saw Aerosmith live just before they took their "Get Clean" break. It was a pretty sad concert, but I stood by them as a fan. Genius music. 

    I love this song, even though it's one of their more mellow songs and I've always been more of a rocker - but I used to sing this song to excercise my range. Just fell in love with it

    This is more my speed though. Two of my fave Aerosongs in one performance! :)

    Just finished Warrior Nun (after a long hard day at work) and, yeah... it totally inspires me to some great animation ideas! Totally!!!

  • DartanbeckDartanbeck Posts: 21,564

    Blur Studio has been creating some of the most amazing CG FX for quite some time. In fact, I'm still in total awe of the work they did for the promo cinematics for Mass Effect 2 back in 2010, when I first bought Carrara.

    They absolutely excel at everything from photo-real to unreal to anime or manga to nearly comic and back again to photo-real and mixing it all up. They totally ROCK in my book!

    Well this is their most impressive 2020 show reel

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    interesting demo.

    underworld done it good.  they used blue light.

    We just watched "Cloud Atlas" (2012, 7.4 at IMDB), all three hours.  My wife had read the book and said I wasn't going to like it, too "mystical", but it is really pretty good.  The 48 Hour Film Contest has about 30 genres (and films get made in many different time periods), I think this movie has segments in most of those genres.  Four stars out of four from Roger Ebert: "I was never, ever bored by 'Cloud Atlas' On my second viewing, I gave up any attempt to work out the logical connections between the segments, stories and characters. What was important was that I set my mind free to play."

    cloak of levitation steals the scenes.  excellent use of a prop as an actor

  • DartanbeckDartanbeck Posts: 21,564

    Agreed. And that whole movie is an inspiration to animate!

    One that I finally got around to: "Hugo" (2011, 7.5 at IMDB, four stars out of four from Ebert, 11 Oscar nominations, five wins).  "In 1931 Paris, an orphan living in the walls of a train station gets wrapped up in a mystery involving his late father and an automaton."  Lots of great steampunk style scenes, including huge elevated clocks in a Paris railway station, big enough to live in and connected by a network of corridors and ladders.  Reminds me of:

    https://www.daz3d.com/clock-works-21236

    "In the way the film uses CGI and other techniques to create the train station and the city, the movie is breathtaking. The opening shot swoops above the vast cityscape of Paris and ends with Hugo (Asa Butterfield) peering out of an opening in a clock face far above the station floor ... [Director Martin] Scorsese uses 3-D here as it should be used, not as a gimmick but as an enhancement of the total effect. "  (Roger Ebert)
