Damn you Glazebrook, I'm going to have to watch Alien again now!
Such a chore.
It's amazing to see just how slap-dash things seemed to be back then, yet still generate fantastic results. I never realised just how large the model of the Nostromo was for the landing sequence, it's bloody huge!
I saw Transformers last night and even though CGI works, there's still something special about doing things the old fashioned way.
Good stuff.
Enjoyed the documentary very much but I couldn't get the CGI model animations while talking about old school model making? Still an interesting watch.
Yeah a pretty naff idea, it just went to show how great the model work was because the CG work was pretty boring !!!
