Really great use of the SFX and music.

Nice post. Dry ice machines, which is what this is, are called "rumble pots" in the SFX business, because the dry ice and water make a rumbling when introduced to one another. The dry ice fog is heavy and rolls along the ground. The "fog machines" you use to create lighter ambient smoke or a lot of concentrated smoke actually vaporizes mineral oil to create that effect.

pritty good , god awfull sound productoin though ,

decent sound , music and sfx would totaly elivate this

Its such a shame that the word DJ is used for people that can actualy produce music as well as people that can only match the beets up on 2 tracks and then fade between them , ocisoinaly putting in sfx and changing the pitch.


DJing and production are 2 completely different things. a lot of DJs produce and a lot of producers DJ but they're completely different ways of thinking. DJing ≠ production

beatmatch DJing conceptually is quite simple but it's not easy and it's actually very difficult to do well. matching the BPMs and fading between tunes is only the most rudimentary skill and even that is not nearly as easy as it sounds (some people can pick that up really quickly, most can't). keeping a crowd moving, re-contextualizing tunes, creating a story, keeping innovative, and staying on top of the music are some of the more mid level skills and they're very hard/impossible to teach.

what a fucking mupit ,


there is actualy good potentail to use i pads as a decent music app ,

but this is just retarded , the vast majorty of D,Js should just be taken to a cattel shed and shot on the face .

allso the way the women talks about this as if its some cheep alternative ,

fucking using a laptop in live mode with USB devices has exsited for over a decade and has offerd the full dj exsperance with evan more controle than nomral hard ware for under £700.

Excellent playing, but not enough rorschach sfx.

I'm not going to crap on every bit of the "film" just because it crapped on me for over 2 hours.

That said, I can honestly say the special effects were enjoyable and well done, but compared to the way the writing was apparently targeted strictly at the mentally defeated (those who were challenged but lost), I could not go so far as to say that the sfx make the pile "worth" watching.

Definitely *geek there.

And ARGH! That shows why George Lucas is so WRONG in 'updating' his old movies and doing his damnedest to not let anyone see the originals. The ORIGNAL never had a STUPID 2D plane shock wave emanating from the Death Star... and this is supposed to be a HISTORY of SFX, well, that's not the original is it, that's not from 1976.

Oh, nooo, why would you put Spiderman in there? Some of the most obvious CG character animation in a big budget film ever... baaaad example.

And ALSO to take the one really bad effect in the WHOLE of Benginman Button... the 'youthening' of Brad Pitt (everything else was indeed superb) as an example... *sigh*

And hate to break it to the maker of this, but seeing as the first clip is from a film in 1900, and the last in 2008.. um... this'd be 108 years of inspiration.

I don't think I'd want to be in this guy's class really.

Goodbye spammer.

That vehicle epitomizes 'hooptie'. Check out the cheesy Doom shotgun SFX at 0:56.


How do you know that video wasn't where id got the SFX?

Saw it a few days ago and was disappointed. You take away the SFX and the novelty of actors impersonating the original characters and the plot feels very threadbare. The villain is exceptionally weak and because it's about these characters getting together for the first time there's not much to build a story on apart from flinging them into various action set pieces.

Flashily directed by that Lost guy and mostly centres on Kirk and Spock without doing anything interesting with them.

Having seen it I'm surprised it was so well received. I preferred Khan and ST IV.

Oh hell - embrace it! Why not? As a huge fan of TOS - I think it looks great!
Oh, and ponceleon - with respect to #1 - this is a civilization that has developed artificial gravity, faster than light travel and matter teleportation (of complex living organisms - consciousness intact, no less!) - what in the world makes you think they couldn't build a spaceship on the planet surface and get it into orbit?
Sure makes life support a hell of a lot easier!


The transporter was a way of saving money and time in TOS of course but it just seems too advanced given the amount of information that would have to be read/stored/transferred and theres' the thorny issue of consciousness (I read the Science of Star Trek years ago!).

So within the Star Trek universe building a ship on the ground might be feasible but still, why? They spend most of their time in space anyhow and you'd have to expend considerable energy getting it off the planet (how do the thrusters work again?). And IIRC the first Enterprise is built in space during the opening credits of Star Trek: Enterprise. I guess this one is simply there for the SFX eye candy it offers.

They could have at least not ripped off Star Fox's ships, music, and sfx.
