Photos of "Behind the Scenes" of the Movie "Blade Runner".
A movie from the year 1982, which is the year Roman was born.
You see, that movie and Roman are pretty old :D
For those of you who do not know the movie here is the official trailer:
Well, why post it here?
Let's get back to the photos. While Raffa and Roman watched them, they really felt looking at ladies and gentlemen doing exactly the same as we all do: Working on too tiny stuff with plenty of passion, but all transported in a time machine. Just one example:
Looking familiar to you?
Have a look at the whole gallery over here!
It is just great and inspirational!
Isn't it a pity that in modern movies most of the special effects are made on the computer?
What is your oppinion on that?
Oooooh! One of the best sci-fi movies ever! I think the best effects are when they combine actual models with a tiny bit of digital. Thanks for sharing the gallery, haven't seen this one before.
ReplyDeleteI'm a modeller/painter AND I'm studying cgi/3d animation. You would be surprised how similar the process is. Just let fly the winds of creation!
ReplyDeleteWow! Very inspirational.
ReplyDeleteWow, that's in 4 years. Are we also getting the flying cars?
ReplyDeleteWe moved around special effects (especially animatronic effects, miniatures and stop-motion). We are very sorry that the old technology already leaving the scene. In the movie "Blade Runner", Doug Trumbull's team has done an absolutely fantastic job just on the miniatures. This film is rightly a cult, and special effects in this movie are top (not only for its time). Each current project that uses the old school special effects, is valuable, and we are very happy of it (last - "The Boxtrols" from Laika). Stop motion movies are one of the last places where the handwork to assert itself and CGI for these projects only help ... Beautiful gallery, thanks:-)
ReplyDeleteIncredible! Some shots I particularly like are the painstaking styrene detailing on the Tyrell Building, and the better view of the "off-world colonies" advertising aerostat, which is not at all easy to see in the final film (nice kitbash of a WW2 gun tractor as the control cab, lol).
ReplyDeleteI think CGI offers opportunities for amateurs and small productions that don't have the resources for a full model shop. Judicious use of both brought us the amazing "Lord of the Rings" movies. Over-use of CGI gives us "The Hobbit" or "Star Wars Episode 1" which are not as highly-praised.
