Who *are* these people that can spend days (weeks?) putting a video like that together? Hilarious, but ya just gotta wonder... -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Coming up with the IDEA might... Your concept of time is clearly different than mine. Shooting that video had to take at least an entire day (probably more) which -- in my world -- would be a completely implausible use of time. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Back when my son played with Legos we spent about an hour on that specific model. Double that to stop every once in a while do shoot a picture and add another 30 minutes to edit it together. 2.5 hours. |

Shooting that video had to take at least an entire day (probably more) which -- in my world -- would be a completely implausible use of time. Whatever floats yer boat Those that do it for a living have come up with some really creative imagery. Two examples off the top of my head: There's a movie that came out around the late 70's, "The Wizard of Speed and Time," which uses a similar technique (pixelation) but with objects like people, film reel cases, etc. Kind of a hokey plot (small kids may dig it, though), but , some rather interesting effects are acheived. Then there's the Zappa DVD "Baby Snakes" which uses claymation but with a regular film camera. In this application of stop motion animation, there's no automatic control for advancing the camera, so the guy is painstakingly clicking the camera manually for each frame (sometimes more than one frame before manipulating the clay). I imagine it took days/weeks to put it together, but the final product is some utterly insane effects. Of course, the one-way trip he most likely took prior seemed to have contributed to the 'concept' No CGI here. This is all old-school, earning it the old fashioned way. Great stuff... -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" Regards, Jon |

The author of this movie will probably think that your concept of time is clearly different than his, and that for him, flying around in a spam can would be a completely implausible use of time. Besides, a reasonably experienced person with a reasonably equipped computer will probably make that movie in less than three hours. |

And buzzing the tower didn't get any accolades either... |
