Question for Dean Deblois & the animators....Someday....
Posted: 07 Jun 2014, 19:19
Last year I was at the Dreamworks Comic-Con presentation, and after showing clips that we now all know and love, Dean DeBlois asked the audience a question. And since my brain works the way it does, I knew exactly what he was asking for and nobody else did, and I wasn't brave enough to get up and answer that question. Currently he doesn't need the answer to the question--the animators have adjusted the scene, and I have thought to myself "Yep, they did it right." I saw other evidences of this technique they have been using, and have been getting right--exactly right on--where Peter Jackson had shot really wide of the mark with "Return of the King"-- at least on this technique.
And now I have a million questions to ask about this technique and nobody to ask them. I can't ask them on Berk's Forumvine, and I CERTAINLY can't ask them on public fora, because if nobody understood it when shown the clip the explanation is really not going to help. But that means it was done right.
In all the other clips I've seen where they're using this technique they're right on the mark. It's executed flawlessly.
So if you know what I'm talking about and know who I can ask about it, go ahead and PM me; otherwise I'm going to see the movie (Next week!) and decide from there. Don't respond on the thread.
