Today, my guest is a prolific cinematographer, accomplished photographer, and member of the American Society of Cinematographers, Dean Cundey A.S.C.Dean rose to fame for extraordinary cinematography in the 1980s and 1990s. His early start was working on the set of Halloween. Dean is credited as director of photography on five Back To The Future films and Jurassic Park.The Halloween slasher franchise consisted of eleven films and was initially released in 1978. The films primarily focus on Michael Myers, who was committed to a sanitarium as a child for the murder of his sister, Judith Myers. Fifteen years later, he escapes to stalk and kill the people of the fictional town of Haddonfield, Illinois. Michael's killings occur on the holiday of Halloween, on which all of the films primarily take place.The second film, one of which Cundey served as director of photography, was based on Marty McFly, who had only just gotten back from the past when he is once again picked up by Dr. Emmett Brown and sent through time to the future. Marty's job in the future is to pose as his son to prevent him from being thrown in prison. Unfortunately, things get worse when the future changes the present.The three Back To The Future films Dean worked on grossed $388.8, $336, and $243 million globally, becoming all-time hits on budgets of $19, $40, and $40 million.Cundey is cited as being amongst some of the best directors of photography. In addition to his lighting skills, particularly in the famous hallway scene where the hidden face of Michael Myers, played by writer/director Nick Castle, is slowly revealed by way of a blue light next to the mask, he was among the first cinematographers to make use of a recent invention called the Steadicam, or paraglide.Some other shows and movies he's worked on include, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Tales of the Unexpected, Romancing the Stone, Invitation To Hell, Big Trouble in Little China, etc.Who Framed Roger Rabbit; A toon-hating detective is a cartoon rabbit's only hoping to prove his innocence when he is accused of murder. Basically, 'Toon star Roger is worried that his wife Jessica is playing pattycake with someone else, so the studio hires detective Eddie Valiant to snoop on her. But the stakes are quickly raised when Marvin Acme is found dead, and Roger is the prime suspect. Groundbreaking interaction between the live and animated characters, and lots of references to classic animation.Dean grew up an avid reader of the American Cinematographer magazines he would buy after school from a local camera shop close by. That was how his inspiration to pursue filmmaking came about. He shifted his focus to theater history while still taking some architectural design classes at California State University before he ultimately enrolled at the University of California Los Angeles film school.In 1993 Jurassic Park, Dean made a minor appearance as a boat crew member (Mate) while also staffed as director of photography. The film follows a pragmatic paleontologist visiting an almost complete theme park tasked with protecting a couple of kids after a power failure causes the park's cloned dinosaurs to run loose. Huge advancements in scientific technology have enabled a mogul to create an island full of living dinosaurs.A park employee attempts to steal dinosaur embryos, critical security systems are shut down, and it now becomes a race for survival with dinosaurs roaming freely over the island.Cundey holds over one hundred and fifty cinematography & photography credits for movies, television, and short films. That is no small feat in this business. The man has stayed busy and booked since graduation from film school. That kind of consistency in Hollywood is only doable by having extreme persistence and excellence. One of the many things he did to stay prepared and on top of his craft was investing into building himself a ‘super van' or one couple call it a cinematographer's heaven that contained every equipment (cameras, editing's tools, etc.) required to help him get work get and do work easily.We talk more about Dean joining The Book of Boba Fett and The Mandalorian crew as well. Check it all out in our chat.Enjoy my conversation with Dean Cundey.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bulletproof-screenwriting-podcast--2881148/support.

Welcome back to another episode of The Movie Gap, where we examine the gap in Bryce's movie knowledge, one movie at a time. I'm your host Chase, and today we're diving into the world of live-action/animation hybrids with the classic film Who Framed Roger Rabbit. How can you possibly make a film with both animated characters and live-action actors? How did they handle the cross-over collaboration of Disney and Warner Bros? Is Judge Doom too scary for what is ostensibly a children's film? Can a kids movie work with a dense, flim noir plot? Bob Hoskins is an absolute treasure in this movie. He plays the gruff and cynical detective, Eddie Valiant, who finds himself investigating the murder of a famous cartoon character. And then there's Robert Zemeckis, who directed this masterpiece. I mean, this guy knows how to blend animation and live-action like nobody's business. In this episode, we'll be discussing everything from the technical wizardry behind the film's creation to the hilarious antics of Roger Rabbit himself. We'll also talk about the movie's lasting impact on pop culture and its influence on future animated/live-action hybrids. So sit back, relax, and grab a cartoonishly large bucket of popcorn as we dive deep into the world of Who Framed Roger Rabbit. And as always, Naminspace.

Ezen a héten egy legendás filmet pótolunk be a Vakfolt podcastban. A Roger nyúl a pácban (Who Framed Roger Rabbit?) 1988-ban jelent meg, az ereje teljében lévő Robert Zemeckis rendezésében (valamint Richard Williams társrendezésében). Az élő szereplőket animációval vegyítő film noirról a Dot and Line főszerkesztőjével, Herczeg Zsófival beszélgettünk. Hol tartott a Disney stúdió 1988-ban, és mi minden kellett ahhoz, hogy a Roger nyúl elkészülhessen? Beszélünk arról, miért jelentett óriási kihívást ez a produkció az animátoroknak és a producereknek egyaránt. Milyen animációs technikai eszközökkel nyűgözte le a nézőket a film? Milyen módszerekkel éri el Zemeckis és Williams, hogy minden eddigi próbálkozásnál jobban elhigyjük ennek a filmnek, hogy a firkák és az emberek valóban egy légtérben léteznek? Milyen paktumok köttethettek meg annak érdekében, hogy a Roger nyúlban Hollywood históriájának összes legendás animációs figurája felbukkanjon? Mitől működnek a film saját karakterei, köztük a Bob Hoskins által megformált Eddie Valiant, a Charles Fleischer (és az animátorok) által életre keltett Roger Nyúl, a Kathleen Turner által eljátszott Jessica Rabbit, vagy épp a gonosz Judge Doom, akit Christopher Lloyd játszott?

In addition to his lighting skills, particularly in the famous hallway scene where the hidden face of Michael Myers is slowly revealed by way of a blue light next to the mask, he was among the first cinematographers to make use of a recent invention called the Steadicam, or paraglide.Some other shows and movies he's worked on include, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Tales of the Unexpected, Romancing the Stone, Invitation To Hell, Big Trouble in Little China, etc.Who Framed Roger Rabbit; A toon-hating detective is a cartoon rabbit's only hoping to prove his innocence when he is accused of murder. Basically, 'Toon star Roger is worried that his wife Jessica is playing pattycake with someone else, so the studio hires detective Eddie Valiant to snoop on her. But the stakes are quickly raised when Marvin Acme is found dead, and Roger is the prime suspect. Groundbreaking interaction between the live and animated characters, and lots of references to classic animation.Dean grew up an avid reader of the American Cinematographer magazines he would buy after school from a local camera shop close by. That was how his inspiration to pursue filmmaking came about. He shifted his focus to theater history while still taking some architectural design classes at California State University before he ultimately enrolled at the University of California Los Angeles film school.In 1993 Jurassic Park, Dean made a minor appearance as a boat crew member (Mate) while also staffed as director of photography. The film follows a pragmatic paleontologist visiting an almost complete theme park tasked with protecting a couple of kids after a power failure causes the park's cloned dinosaurs to run loose. Huge advancements in scientific technology have enabled a mogul to create an island full of living dinosaurs. A park employee attempts to steal dinosaur embryos, critical security systems are shut down, and it now becomes a race for survival with dinosaurs roaming freely over the island.Cundey holds over one hundred and fifty cinematography & photography credits for movies, television, and short films. That is no small feat in this business. The man has stayed busy and booked since graduation from film school. That kind of consistency in Hollywood is only doable by having extreme persistence and excellence.One of the many things he did to stay prepared and on top of his craft was investing into building himself a ‘super van' or one couple call it a cinematographer's heaven that contained every equipment (cameras, editings tools, etc.) required to help him get work get and do work easily. We talk more about this in our chat.Enjoy my conversation with Dean Cundey.

“Is Mickey Mouse really a Communist?” The panel of peril hold back their baser urges, stop playing pattycake, pull down the bed hidden in the wall of their small office and lay down to watch this week's film Who Framed Roger Rabbit. We then try to improve upon the villain's diabolical plan for the honour of choosing next week's film and hosting the pod. Who Framed Roger Rabbit sees the titular cartoon critter framed for the murder of Toontown owner Roger Acme, and it lies with whiskey sodden detective Eddie Valiant (Bob Hoskins) to clear his name. Who really killed Acme and why? How does no one see how obviously evil Judge Doom (Christopher Lloyd) clearly is? And why was Roger framed for murder? Watch the trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEIJpS26aAw ********PLOT SPOILER ALERT******** Traumatised by the death of his brother at the hands of a toon, Eddie Valiant is reluctant to help Roger clear his name to say the least. Encountering the likes of Mickey Mouse, Bugs Bunny, Dumbo and Betty Boop, Valiant must venture into the deepest depths of Toontown to uncover Judge Doom's plot to dip every toon and turn town into one big road. Just what did the panel think of this week's movie, pray tell? How can they improve upon the villain's masterplan? And who will be christened this week's most diabolical?

Get ready for a deep-dive into all the Disney cameos, explorations of the film's cartoonish reality, the adorable wounded hearts of Roger Rabbit and Eddie Valiant, the terror of Judge Doom, the politics of Jessica Rabbit, and the very, very different novel it was drawn from. Plus, Sam gives an epic recap of the entire Disney story so far, and the audience delivers some very helpful sing-alongs. Regular class resumes next time! Huge thanks to everyone who attended the show, and to Kings Place for hosting.

This podcast is not affiliated with Disney. — Welcome to Disniversity, the podcast crash course through the history of Disney's animated classics, with film journalist Ben Travis and animation academic Dr. Sam Summers. Each week, we'll be moving forward in time through the legendary Walt Disney Animation Studios catalogue, watching every feature film in chronological order – from Snow White to Encanto. Watch along with us, and listen as we explore each film's historical context, advances in animation and lasting legacy, and talk about how they stand up today.
What does it mean to Bump The Lamp and what can this lesson do to help us in our everyday lives? The term Bump The Lamp comes from a scene in Who Framed Roger Rabbit in which Eddie Valiant, played by Bob Hoskins, is trying to cut off the handcuffs that tie him to Roger. Throughout the scene, he bumps his head repeatedly on a lamp in the room causing it to swing which made the animation of that scene considerably more expensive and time-consuming. The animation team made the choice to do it anyway because Bumping The Lamp makes the scene better. Viewers wouldn't have known the difference, but the final product wouldn't have been as good. And the animators would've known it. Every now and then along the path of life, we have moments in which we too can make a choice. We can choose to skirt the hard work and delay both the pain and the pay off, or we can choose to do the hard thing in the moment that will set the vector of our path in a more favorable direction and deliver Future Us from having to shoulder the burden. Which should we choose? Let's dive in and explore this concept together! In this episode, we also shared a new post we're going to create in the Magic Family, our Patreon community for supporters of the Magical Mindset Moments Podcast, where we will craft our Disney lexicon. In this post, we will all share our bite-sized Disney phrases that we use to keep things light even when moments are hard. These touchstones are so important for family life so if you want to come help us build the Magic Family Lexicon, we would love to have you join us!

Seaman from Gary K. Wolf's 1981 novel Who Censored Roger Rabbit?. The film stars Bob Hoskins, Christopher Lloyd, Charles Fleischer, Stubby Kaye, and Joanna Cassidy. Set in a 1947 version of Hollywood where cartoon characters (commonly referred to as "toons") and people co-exist, the film follows Eddie Valiant, a private investigator hired to help exonerate Roger Rabbit, a toon who has been framed for the murder of the Acme Corporation's owner. Walt Disney Pictures purchased the film rights for the film's story in 1981. Price and Seaman wrote two drafts of the script before Disney brought in executive producer Steven Spielberg and his production company, Amblin Entertainment. Zemeckis was brought on to direct the film while Canadian animator Richard Williams was hired to supervise the animation sequences. Production was moved from Los Angeles to Elstree Studios in England to accommodate Williams and his group of animators. While filming, the production budget began to rapidly expand and the shooting schedule ran longer than expected. The film was released through Disney's Touchstone Pictures banner on June 22, 1988. It received acclaim from critics, who praised its visuals, humor, writing, and performances (particularly Hoskins), with critics and audiences considering it to be "groundbreaking". It grossed over $351 million worldwide, becoming the second-highest-grossing film of 1988. It brought a renewed interest in the Golden age of American animation, spearheading modern American animation and the Disney Renaissance.[7] It won three Academy Awards for Best Film Editing, Best Sound Effects Editing and Best Visual Effects and received a Special Achievement Academy Award for its animation direction by Williams. In 2016, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".[8][9]

In 1988 Robert Zemeckis broke ground with his unique comedy whodunnit, Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Roger Rabbit tells the story of the star of toon films who is suddenly implicated in the murder of the man who was playing Patty-Cake with his buxom wife, Jessica. To solve the case we are introduced to Eddie Valiant, an alcoholic P.I. who has a grudge against toons since his brother was murdered by one. Starring Christopher Lloyd and Bob Hoskins, WFRR broke ground with the level of animation it tied into the live-action and the movie was a critical and financial hit. But, does it hold up? Listen in as Jon, Colin, and Brent debate the ethics of cartoon/human relations as we decide; are toons in, or you should tune out.

Today, my guest is a prolific cinematographer, accomplished photographer, and member of the American Society of Cinematographers, Dean Cundey.Dean rose to fame for extraordinary cinematography in the 1980s and 1990s. His early start was working on the set of Halloween. Dean is credited as director of photography on five Back To The Future films and Jurassic Park.The Halloween slasher franchise consisted of eleven films and was initially released in 1978. The films primarily focus on Michael Myers, who was committed to a sanitarium as a child for the murder of his sister, Judith Myers. Fifteen years later, he escapes to stalk and kill the people of the fictional town of Haddonfield, Illinois. Michael's killings occur on the holiday of Halloween, on which all of the films primarily take place. The second film, one of which Cundey served as director of photography, was based on Marty McFly, who had only just gotten back from the past when he is once again picked up by Dr. Emmett Brown and sent through time to the future. Marty's job in the future is to pose as his son to prevent him from being thrown in prison. Unfortunately, things get worse when the future changes the present.The three Back To The Future films Dean worked on grossed $388.8, $336, and $243 million globally, becoming all-time hits on budgets of $19, $40, and $40 million.Cundey is cited as being amongst some of the best directors of photography.

The Dip, Also Known As "Toon Acid", is a greenish, ghastly chemical seen in Who Framed Roger Rabbit. It's Judge Doom's preferred method of Toon execution. According to Lieutenant Santino, it's a mixture of turpentine, acetone, and benzene, which all of them are paint-thinners. Combined in the real world, they make up the solution hand animators used to use to remove ink from animation cells. This could be considered an inside joke, as your average audience member would not know what these ingredients made up. While relatively harmless to humans, any toon that comes in contact with it will melt instantly and is apparently the only surefire way to kill a toon (although Eddie Valiant gets most of The Toon Patrol members to laugh themselves to death). Ironic enough, Judge Doom ends up being dipped himself near the end of the film, after revealing himself to be actually a toon. www.ObscureDisneyPodcast.com www.DisneyPatch.com www.Obscuri-D.com

Find out in the exciting conclusion of “Laughter's the Best Medicine”! And this week we're talkin toons! “Who Framed Roger Rabbit” seamlessly blends the conventions of a noir story with the antics and humor of classic Warner Brothers and Disney cartoons. You've got Bob Hoskins as the hard drinking gumshoe Eddie Valiant going up against a band of gangster weasels and a certain buxom redheaded femme fatale named Jessica Rabbit who's about as far from a Disney Princess as you can get without falling off a cliff in a puff a smoke Wile E. Coyote style. So join us as we talk about this smart mix of film noir and cartoon chaos.
Private eye Eddie Valiant gets in over his head when he accepts a lousy snoop job that leads him into the murky shadows of 40s Hollywood, in a tale of greed, sex, murder and toons. The perfect mix of golden age animation and 40s gumshoe noir, Who Framed Roger Rabbit won awards and was a box office blockbuster, appealing to adults and kids alike. All The Right Movies are here to make people laugh, and we will work for peanuts.
Special guest TieTuesday joins us for his first time viewing of the Super Mario Bros Movie. Follow along as The Pest and Eddie Valiant battle that egg-sucking bastard King Koopa through underground Bladerunner sets using the most high-octane plumbing action you've ever seen.
On this week's Bonus Features, Carie and Ross talk about Mrs. America and Ross proffers what might have happened to Eddie Valiant after Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

Crooked Table Podcast - The world of film from a fresh angle
It's been a long while since Rob got the chance to take the reins of the Crooked Table Podcast (ever since the new format debuted in December 2018 with our Ace Ventura: Pet Detective episode). Now, with his birthday upon us, Rob — and returning guest Jeannine Yaniz — talk about one of his all-time favorite films, 1988's Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Director Robert Zemeckis's live-action/animated hybrid may be a technical feat that still holds up today, but it is also a formative film for our host. From childhood playthings to childlike inspirations, listen in to find out how the most inappropriate Disney film this side of Return to Oz made a tremendous impact on the birthday boy. Who Framed Roger Rabbit synopsis, courtesy of Amblin Entertainment: Director Robert Zemeckis’ feature follow-up to the original Back to the Future (1985), Who Framed Roger Rabbit continued the filmmaker’s startling blend of humor, imagination, invention and technical innovation to bring together a world where human beings and animated cartoon characters interacted in a comical romantic mystery adventure set in a Hollywood—and Toontown—of yore. Bob Hoskins stars as Eddie Valiant, a down-on-his-luck gumshoe with a painful past and a dislike of the lunacy of toons—thrust against his better instincts into a whodunnit with a harebrained hare, Roger Rabbit, a cuckolded cuckoo convicted of murdering gag magnate Marvin Acme. Eddie and Roger pair up, much to Eddie’s chagrin, to find Acme’s real murderer, only to uncover a cover-up that could bring ruination (all in the name of progress) to both Tinseltown and Toontown forever! Featuring lively performances by Hoskins, Christopher Lloyd (Back to the Future) and Joanna Cassidy, along with a gallery of toons both new and beloved—including cameos by no-less animated aristocracy than Mickey Mouse, Bugs Bunny, Donald Duck, Daffy Duck and many, many more from the Golden Age of animation, Who Framed Roger Rabbit is the kind of film that must be seen to be believed—and beloved.

This week, I had the honor of talking to Roger Rabbit creator Gary K. Wolf, whose unorthodox noir mystery book "Who Censored Roger Rabbit?" was the basis for the 1988 Disney / Amblin blockbuster. We talk about the origins of the character, his other works, Wolf's memories on set, and how Roger changed both his and Eddie Valiant's lives. I am so proud of this episode and am so grateful Gary could speak to be for so long! Since his original book, Gary has released two other Roger Rabbit novels, and a compendium of short stories inspired by the rabbit and his crew, "The Road to Toontown". Special Guest: Gary K. Wolf.
Where does our DeLorean take us this week? The 30th anniversary of "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" just passed and the 88 MPH gang is talking all about it, including fun trivia about the movie like Harrison Ford was almost being casted as Eddie Valiant. Plus our hosts talk about their first concerts, Chris' many travels and the song of the week featuring Sting! Hop into our DeLorean and go back in time with a podcast that talks about the past, including pop culture, video games, random life stories, but mostly about the movies from our past.
When a serious Private Investigator takes a cartoonish case, the possibility of insanity (or at least inanity) increases by a factor of 88. To prove the point, Robert Zemeckis, Steven Spielberg, and Alan Silvestri combined film noir with cartoon antics in a live action/animated movie named Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Tune in for ‘toons this week on TechnoRetro Dads. In the NEWS The Hilarious House of Frightenstein looks to get a reboot, eh? Eggo’s boost in sales from the Stranger Things craze has abated. Showbiz Pizza’s house band, The Rockafire Explosion is back together, playing at an arcade in Kansas City. Everyone’s favorite video game hedgehog (Sonic) is getting his own movie. We Love Our Cereal Shane in Grand Rapids lets us know about the Cold Stone Creamery mashup with Malt-O-Meal for ice cream cereal. After hearing about the Dippin’ Dots cereals last week, we think this might be a trend. PLUS: JediShua gives his first thoughts on Chips Ahoy! cereal and shazbazzar reviews Dippin’ Dots Banana Split cereal. Who Framed Roger Rabbit Bob Hoskins, Christopher Lloyd, Kathleen Turner, and Charles Fleisher combined forces in 1988 to create the one-of-a-kind live action/animation movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit. It’s a tale of mystery, murder, and maroons in a world where cartoons are people, too. The trouble doubles when Roger Rabbit is framed for the murder of Marvin Acme and Judge Doom’s goon squad searches high and low for the scared hare. Reluctant detective Eddie Valiant goes against his long-standing practice of avoiding ‘toons and protects Roger long enough to get to the bottom of the case. Speaking of bottoms, Lou Hirsch portrays Baby Herman, a baby-faced ‘toon actor who is in dire need of a diaper change. If you haven’t seen Who Framed Roger Rabbit, you need to get to it immediately! (WARNING: Parental Guidance Suggested) Feedback Mike MacDonald spots Star Wars in The Great Outdoors so shaz and Shua identify the fast food premiums from 1980 and 1983. Jonathan Bell lets us know what he thought about Won’t You Be My Neighbor and The Dark Crystal. Jeff Baucom pulls out the Brian Daley Han Solo novels and reminds us about the Lando Calrissian Adventures (which, evidently, Lando didn’t forget to chronicle in Solo: A Star Wars Story).

We're off to Toon Town this week with Robert Zemeckis and Steven Spielberg's 1988 animation/live action hybrid Who Frames Roger Rabbit. Featuring a cast of characters from Warner Bros. through to Disney, Who Framed Roger Rabbit tells the story of Eddie Valiant, a Private Investigator who must exonerate the titular cartoon star, Roger Rabbit, when he is framed of murder. Since its release the film has gained a cult following, and we're going to find out why.
This week the guys take on the pioneer family film "Who Framed Roger Rabbit." They discuss the coming together of Warner Brothers and Disney, how this movie became an official Disney Movie and the technological marvel that this movie truly was. Joe reveals secrets behind the screen tests including which well known actor played Eddie Valiant in the tests and which director Robert Zemeckis helped bring into Hollywood. They name the actors who were considered to star in the movie and Todd confesses what his dream job would be.
Guerreiros, em guarda! Nesta nova missão, Fábio Moreira (@facosmo), Marcos Moreira (@marvincosmo), Rafael Motta (@RalfMotta) e Clarisse Machado (@clamlemos) vêm para esta missão mostrar a primeira reunião de todos os desenhos da nossa infância, numa investigação muito especial!
If you grew up in the 1980's, chances are this film holds a special place in your heart. A groundbreaking (although rarely outmatched) meld of animation and live action, 'WFRR?' is a classic example of film noir. Bob Hoskins is private eye Eddie Valiant, still emotionally wounded by the death of his brother, at the hands of a 'Toon no less. Through a seemingly simple job, Valiant finds himself mixed up in the world of 'Toons, even though he can't stand them. In a classic 'unlikely friendship' twist, Valiant finds himself protecting Roger Rabbit from the evil Judge Doom (Christopher Lloyd). This movie has it all, including overtly sexual references that tickled the eyes and ears of many a pre-teen since 1988. Emily is the guest on the program, and she shares her appreciation of 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit?' with Andrew and Phil.
