The Last of Us movie, at least on paper, is sure sounding like it could break through the history of mediocrity that has plagued recent big-screen video game adaptations.
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

The Last of Us movie, at least on paper, is sure sounding like it could break through the history of mediocrity that has plagued recent big-screen video game adaptations. We already know creative director Neil Druckmann is writing the movie's script, and now the designer has revealed that the movie will be a re-telling of the game's story, not a new extension to the series.

The Pastel Illustrations of Tyrus Wong That Would Inspire the Movie ‘Bambi’

The Pastel Illustrations of Tyrus Wong That Would Inspire the Movie ‘Bambi’ | Machinimania | Scoop.it

Painter, muralist, ceramicist, lithographer, designer and kite maker Tyrus Wong was born in China in 1910 and emigrated to the United States with his father at the age of 9. As a child his teachers noticed he possessed exceptional artistic skills which would land him a scholarship at the Otis Art Institute in Los Angeles. By 1930 he was working in Hollywood for Warner Bros. and from 1938 to 1941 he became a “Disney inspirational sketch artist” where his lush pastel drawings of forests and deer would serve as inspiration for the movie Bambi where he served as lead artist on the film.


Via Annie Brightstar
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

The glorious work of Tyrus Wong is unparalleled. It was his lush pastels that served as the driving force behind Bambi, where he was the lead artist on the film.

Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

Alfred Hitchcock's film The Birds told the story of a rustic seaside town that finds itself menaced by hellish flocks of seagulls and crows. Now the 1963 classic looks set to suffer its own form of molestation courtesy of a Hollywood remake by Transformers director Michael Bay.

The movie has no CGI. None at all.
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

The movie has no CGI. None at all. Director Scott Waugh, who comes from an extensive stunt background (his father even played Spider-Man on the 1978 TV show The Amazing Spider-Man), said he did not want to lie to the audience using green screens, so he simply didn't. Everything you see in the movie--explosions, cars driving off cliffs, hairpin turns at breakneck speeds--actually happened in the real world. It's even more impressive when you consider Aaron Paul is behind the wheel for many of the scenes.

The project is called Mental Fabrications, an art project aiming to map the mind's mental landscape through a combination of EEG readings and 3D printing.
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

The project is called Mental Fabrications, an art project aiming to map the mind’s mental landscape through a combination of EEG readings and 3D printing. That’s a high-minded way of describing it, but in real tangible terms, the point is just to get a brain signal and print it out in a way that looks interesting and maintains some connection to the source. That sounds simple, but it means tracing a dodgy transmission through a maze of different technologies, most of which have never been used this way before. Popian has done that, and the result is genuinely impressive.
