a short history of CG characters in movies
1 year ago
it's a little rough around the edges and could have used a day or two to refine, but i guess it's informative enough to share.

Prev week
question : what happened in the 70's ? was there no remarkable visual effects in films at this time?
for a nice overview of the topic go here:

Thanks
But let me say, that you forget "ET".. and all that we have learned from the great Carlo Rambaldi, and his fantastis toys with Mechatronics :)
i should've included tons of other people as well...
the brilliant stan winston, to name only one...
but since it was supposed to be only 20 mins long, i had to throw a lot of stuff overboard.
the four movies that are IMHO the most important among the bunch received a special treatment, the rest got a bit of screen time and a nod. :)
I will use that to show for my class.
...those pesky spelling errors.
i've seen this thing so many times and just 3 weeks ago a comment alerted me to the fact that i accidently misspelled his name... thanks for your keen eye.
Shared on twitter, and on my blog ! stevemorel.com/2011/03/a-short-history-of-cg-characters-in-movies/
Cheer !!
That beeing said I just missed one film in the compilation, Star Ship Troopers for two reasons:
- The huge amount of CG Creatures in the original film was astounding.
- Thippet Studios really deserves some credit in cg history.
Anyway, thanks for your effort and time in making the video... !!
Salut!
The video is very ilm oriented, disney also did some very interesting cg in the early days.
Then I'm missing BUF.fr (fightclub). Border moving cg characters there, why no mention of that?
you got the feeling

This is Awesome collection of knowledge.....
But, alas, crudely saying, more have such technology and possibilities advanced, crappier films we got, with shallower characters, less logic action, more banal story. There are exceptions, no doubt ... But, the less you have, more creative you are, yes?
You should add Who Framed Roger Rabbit (not really CG but it was another way to insert a lead character animated in a live action movie), the lawnmower man, I Robot ?
cheers
