Anderson picture?Topics:(PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 20-minutes discussing Carly Thomas' write-up on The Hollywood Reporter "James Gunn Says the "Movie Industry is Dying" Due to Films Being Made with Unfinished Scripts" and whether we believe in Gunn's interpretation of Hollywood's current hurdles or if the issue is more complicated than that.

At the end of 2024, artist Amy Kligman left her executive director role to create her own opportunities by identifying gaps in the Kansas City arts ecosystem. She launched Special Effects gallery to make local artists more nationally visible and the Salon for Possible Futures, an artwork that doubles as a community gathering space. We discuss how Amy navigates risk and uncertainty, measures success in experimental projects, and uses art to build empathy and human connection during politically volatile times.   RELEVANT LINKS:  Amy Kligman: https://www.amykligman.com/ Amy Kligman Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amykligman/ Special Effects Gallery: https://www.instagram.com/specialfxgallery The Salon for Possible Futures: https://www.nermanmuseum.org/exhibitions/2025-03-28-amy-kligman.html

In dieser Folge von "The Abyss" diskutieren wir die spannende und komplexe Szene aus dem gleichnamigen Film von James Cameron. Wir befinden uns in einem kritischen Moment, als die Charaktere versuchen, eine Trident-Rakete aus einem gesunkenen U-Boot unter enormen Druck und Zeitdruck zu bergen. Arne, Bastian und Alexander analysieren die verschiedenen filmtechnischen Aspekte dieser Sequenz, die sowohl herausfordernd als auch faszinierend ist. Wir beginnen mit der Beschreibung der anfänglichen Szenen, in denen die Charaktere an Bord des U-Bootes kämpfen, um bei einem aufziehenden Sturm die Kontrolle zu behalten. Wichtig ist hier die Diskussion über das dynamische Umfeld und die visuelle Inszenierung, die daran erinnert, wie wichtig die im Film eingesetzten Effekte für die emotionale Wirkung sind. Während die Charaktere mit der Übelkeit und den Herausforderungen des Einsatzes kämpfen, reflektieren wir die technische Realisation der Hotshots und die darauffolgenden Miniatur-Effekte. Ein zentrales Thema dieser Episode ist die kritische Betrachtung der Special Effects und deren Umsetzung zu der Zeit des Films. Bastian vertritt die Meinung, dass insbesondere die Stop-Motion-Sequenzen in dieser Szene nicht optimal wirken und einige Unstimmigkeiten aufweisen. Außerdem bringen wir den Punkt zur Sprache, dass die animierten Elemente in der Sequenz dazu führen, dass die Bewegungen nicht ganz flüssig erscheinen und wie diese Wahrnehmung durch die Gesamtinszenierung beeinflusst wird. Außerdem analysieren wir technische Details in Bezug auf die Handlung, zum Beispiel die Funktionalität und Realitätsnähe der verwendeten Geräte wie dem Greifarm und der Art und Weise, wie sie unter Wasser funktionieren sollen. Alexander hebt die interessante Diskussion über die Notwendigkeit von Checklisten als Sicherheitsmechanismus zur Fehlervermeidung bei solchen riskanten Operationen hervor, was zu einem tieferen Verständnis für die Charaktere und ihre Herausforderungen führt. Im weiteren Verlauf der Episode thematisieren wir die schockierenden Wendungen und das Drama, das sich entfaltet, als das U-Boot durch plötzliche Schiffsbewegungen und beginnenden Druck auf die Verbindungsstränge in Gefahr gerät. Wir erörtern, wie die Dramatik der Situation durch die musikalische Untermalung verstärkt wird und welche Kameratechniken verwendet wurden, um die klaustrophobische Atmosphäre im filmischen Setting zu erzeugen. Abschließend reflektieren wir über die erzählerischen und visuellen Elemente, die Cameron in „The Abyss“ geschickt miteinander verwebt und dabei ein unverwechselbares und intensives Zuschauererlebnis schaffen. Der hohe Spannungsbogen, gepaart mit technischem Geschick und filmischer Kreativität, bleibt ein zentrales Thema in dieser Analyse.

"The Predator" (2018) attempts to breathe new life into the iconic franchise with a mix of action, humor, and sci-fi elements. However, the film struggles with a convoluted plot that juggles multiple storylines, leading to moments of confusion. While "The Predator" offers some entertaining moments and nostalgic nods to its predecessors, it ultimately leaves viewers divided on its effectiveness as a continuation of the franchise.

SEASON 2 - EPISODE 115 - Dominic Tuohy - Special Effects Supervisor Special effects supervisor Dominic Tuohy (THE BATMAN, 1917, EDGE OF TOMORROW) joins us in this episode of the Team Deakins Podcast to discuss the craft of special effects. With a father active in the film industry, Dom was taken in by the special effects team at Pinewood Studios at an early age, and he's been working in the department for the past 40 years. Throughout the episode, we discuss the invaluable verisimilitude of special effects, and Dom muses over the magic inherent to filmmaking's smoke and mirrors. He later unmasks the secrets behind pulling off the Batmobile chase in THE BATMAN, and we learn how stunt coordinator Rob Alonzo creatively spent his time during the pandemic induced pause in production to pre-visualize the sequence. Dom also reveals the painstaking (and sometimes painful) work that he and his team endure to push the envelope and make an effect even better. Towards the end of the conversation, Dom reveals how he advises any young person interested in making a life out of making movies, and we reflect on the high price (and deep pleasure) of working in the industry. - This episode is sponsored by Aputure
