Cow/Tractor Tipping
I chose this picture because this was a very funny scene. I'm sure everyone's heard of cow tipping and in this scene the boys have fun with these tractors/cows by tipping them over. Again i am just completely amazed of how the color looks and how realistic the sky also looks. Computer graphics are just so beautiful and well defined in quality. When looking at the picture i can almost feel like i am there out in the country side at night with stars all around. It just amazes me how far technology has come and how fast they continue to grow. I wonder how animations will look like 2 years from now.
Michael Jordan
I have not seen a Disney film in a while and when i saw Cars i really liked it a lot. I chose this particular picture because i just love how he was imitating Michael Jordan. Whenever Michael goes for a dunk he always sticks out his tongue and it was funny to see this coming from a car. I also loved the animation and how crisp and well define the movie looks. The color and quality of the movie was very nice and by comparing this type of movie to an old Disney movie, it is just amazing how far technology has gone.
Marching into Batlle
This was a nice long shot that i liked from this movie. The soldiers were marching into battle in what looks to be a very hot day. I didn't notice anything spectacular in particular but the angle of the camera when it took this shot looked like it was very high as if from a crane. I noticed it looked hot because there were no trees around, a long dirt road, yellow and white weeds, and nothing except for waist high bushes. Putting all these things together just made it look like it was hot and everyone did not look enthusiastic at all so it seems that they still have a long trip to go.
Becoming a man
I chose this particular shot because i thought it was a nice close up of the native american. Just as he was initiated into being a man to carry his own load, one of the soldier rubs dirt on his face to show that he is now a man. The whole time he was a soldier he was always watched over like a baby and finally this time he chooses to be a man and do something he is not supposed to do in order to help his own soldier. I think the dirt just shows how that in order to be a man you have to get your face into the dirt.
Saving a life
This was also a very beautiful scene. The colors are a little darker than the previous one but i thought this was also a powerful and beautiful scene. As the sun begins to rise Violet saves the life of the boy. With a new day a new life begins. I also liked how the long shot captured the whole city in the background. It looks almost as if she is on top of the world or even floating towards heaven. Not such a good movie but contained many beautiful shots.
No FEAR
Even though this movie wasn't as good as i thought it would be i really do love the individual shots and colors that were included in the movie. The majority of the movie was obviously special effects but the colors and the special effects along with some of the graphics were amazing. In this particular scene i loved how ultraviolet looked so powerful while she was pinned down with guns. She did not look at all scare. This was just a beautiful medium shot that i really liked. When i first captured this picture i liked how she was not at all scared but when i really looked at it, the colors from this particular picture is just amazing. The sun is about to set and it looks like a battle is about to erupt. The redness in the sky means blood is about to be spilled. I don't know if that was the intention but that's how i see the scene and this was just a beautiful way of how to use colors and a sunset to symbolize what is going to be taking place.
Quick Shower
I also chose this particular scene because it was a hilarious scene. I love the long shot of how the family is taking a shower in the sprinkler. Not only do they capture just the whole family well but they also captured the sprinkler in the shot also. I thought at first it was kind of weird of how far off the family was to the right but when i looked back to the left i noticed the water sprinkler had a significance in this scene because it was also in the shot. By including the sprinkler in the scene it made the shot even more funnier.
NUTCRACKER
This was a very funny scene in this movie. This scene portrays Pure Comedy very well because Dick just got kicked in his balls. I love watching Jim Carey movies because he is such a physical comedian. He uses so much more body language in creating humor similar to the movie "The Tramp." I know that he does talk a lot too but he is known to be more of a person who would rather jump around and do something funny rather than say something funny. Jim Carey does both very well and i love watching his movies.
Drinking Beer Inside Tank
I thought this was a hilarious scene also. Even though it's obvious this is fake that the guy is drinking from inside the tank, it's just funny to watch because of his facial expression. He looks determine as if he can finish the beer. I found out that after watching the credits at the end of the movie he was actually in a tank filled with water color. I thought maybe the whole scene was an animated scene with him behind a blue screen and everything around him computerized with graphics. When i took a closer look the only thing that had special effects was the twirling whirlpool going toward his mouth just as he is drinking the beer. There is nothing really spectacular about this medium shot except that it was a very funny scene in the movie.
Drunk Pastor
I chose this particular picture because it was one of the funnier scenes in this movie. I really liked it because it was so ironic to see a pastor gamble and drink with some of his buddies. Not only were they drinking but this was right during the ceremony of a close family member who had just passed away. It was just really funny because it shows you how much they cared about the funeral. The pastor obviously was also a big drinker because he drank that big cup in one gulp.
