Werewolf Slained
I can't get over how many beautiful images they have in this movie. In this particular scene the werewolf is slain by one of the vampire hunter which he also is a vampire himself. I chose this image because I like the angle of this shot through the werewolves legs. As the werewolf is dieing and bleeding the vampire hunter poses after his final blow. It amazes me how these artists can still come up with these certain angle shots while drawing these images. That just shows that there is a lot of thinking that contributes to these animation rather than just drawing beautiful images.
Hiding from the rain
In this scene after a battle with some demons the vampire hunter hides under a huge tree to avoid the rain. I chose this image because again it was a beautiful image that just incorporated everything so well from the different types of objects to the different types of colors. Even though it doesn't look like it, it is actually pouring in this scene but it's hard to see the rain because it moves so fast and as i was capturing this scene, they just look like blurry streaks coming down. But the image as you look at it now, looks like it was meant to be drawn this way; how weird is this.Realistically, if you take an actual picture in out in the rain it would be almost the same exact thing and this is what really boggles my mind. This is such a beautiful image still of a long shot showing part of the forest being drenched by the rain.
Die for Love
In this scene a vampire falls in love with a human lady and risks his life to be with her. As he is being burnt and consumed by the sun he stumbles onto his knee to protect her from these vampire hunters that were after her. Even though his was a very touching scene this image made the scene much more emotional. With the beautiful colors and and the sun setting it was very well thought out and drawn out. The red sky and the red mountain made this image look so real and beautiful as well. This was a great medium shot just capturing them both from the waist up just high enough to capture everything else in the background as well. Very Beautifully drawn.
" A man makes a BEAST out himself, and gets rid of all the PAIN of being a man."
This was one of my favorite Japanese animation movie. I love watching japanese anime films because they are great and fun to watch. Everything about these anime films are great going from storyline to how beautifully drawn the characters are. In this scene this man turns into a werewolf to fight and protect his master he serves. There is just something about werewolves that i love so much and this scene really astonished me when i first saw it. The man turns into a wicked werewolf with an extra mouth from his stomach and i just thought that was the coolest thing i had ever seen; a werewolf with an extra mouth from his stomach. The full moon appearing from the dark clouds in the background really made a nice finishing touch to this beast transformation.
Psychic Reader Dave
This is one of my favorite scene as well. I thought this was a hilarious scene because in this scene he shows how stupid all these people are by feeding them all these lies and they eat it up. He is trying to make fun of the famous Tarot reader Ms. Cleo. I chose this scene because not only was it funny but i like all the different costumes that he uses in his skits. He is always wearing some kind of costume to portray someone or something and he does a good job at bringing all these costumes in and using them. Costumes are a plus for any movie but it has to fit with your are doing and Dave uses his costumes wisely.
Black KKK
I love watching the Chappelle's Show because Dave Chappelle is a hilarious actor. Everything he says or does is truly hysterical and his looks add a part to that also. In this scene Dave Chappelle plays a great White Supremacist leader because he really thinks he is white. As an orphan he was also born blind and while growing up people lied to him that he was white. He had a lot of followers as a white supremacist leader because he never shows his face in public until now. In this scene he unveils his mask to his followers and they all find out that he is black. After he finds out the truth about himself he divorces his wife because she married a black person. This was not a bad medium shot of Dave but i chose this scene because i just truly thought it was a hilarious scene.
Starts to fall apart
In this scene Al Pacino 'Tony Montana" goes crazy because his sister has just been shot. He climbs onto his balcony and shoots the already dead guy that was thrown down to the first floor. This was the last epic battle at the end of the movie and this was the first victim that fell to his hands. I really like this shot because of the beautiful colors used in this scene. His suit being black portrayed his dark side completely taking over him and his white house was the innocence that was containing him. His suit being dark with a white background really made him stood out because this was such a powerful scene that they really wanted you to focus all your attention on Tony Montana; and what a better way to do it by using the correct colors to make you really feel his pain and not take your eyes off of him.
Point Blank
This was one of my favorite movie of all time. This is also my favorite Al Pacino movie and he was such a great actor in this film although this was a pretty ruthless role. In this scene Al Pacino is about to kill another guy for some drugs and this was what moved him up in the drug business. I really like this shot because he really looks like a psycho killer. Also with the blood and sweat on his face you know he's serious and obviously someone is going to die. The palm trees in the background and his shirt really goes well together also.
Men's pair skating
This is just a hilarious scene when i first saw this. In this particular scene Will Ferrel and his partner skate together for the first time. Because they were both eliminated from the Men's single they found out they that both still really want to skate and the only way for them to do so is to pair up with each other. I don't know why they didn't go looking for a girl for a partner but it made the movie more funny with two guys skating with each other. This is actually a nice medium shot of the both of them but as you can tell the partner being held up is animated into that scene of some sort. If you closely look at his head it looks weird and it looks like it was just pasted there. Even with that little flaw this was one of my favorite scene in this movie.
Will Ferrel Close Up
This was not one of Will Ferrel's best movie but i thought there were some hilarious stuff in this movie. In this particular scene Will Ferrel and his skating partner attempt to do a new and banned skating move that they came up with. This scene shows how close his partner's skating blade is to his face will attempting the move. I like this shot because even though the skate is animated the close up on the skate and Will Ferrel's face is a really nice shot. Even though that skate is not there he even looks over at the skate as if it was there; man these actors are really good in what they do and i respect that.
More than meets the eye
I chose this specific scene because it was the first time all the transformers came together in the movie. I am a really big transformer fan and i can't express how well this movie was done even though the majority of the film was animated. I still can't get over how beautiful the color of the robots are and how realistic they are. I really like this shot because there was barely enough light in the dark alley to hide the detailed animation that might be a flaw and they did a really well job on that. I mean if the robots were to be shown in broad day light in a certain scene, it can be easier to point out and see how unreal the robots are.
