cosmic conflict movie

Leave a Comment / daily rambliniscings / September 2, 2008


Amazing Facts has been working on a “Great Controversy” movie for some time. I have had contact with the producer, and he said he estimated the movie would cost around 1.5million usd and come in around fall 2007. The project looks to be getting near completion:

Yes, i have some thots about this….. But please, look at the site yourself first. There are 7 stills from the movie up for viewing as i write this.

So you’re back? What do you think?
What i think?….. The Good Shepherd is excellent. The Road to Jerusalem is very good. The Heavenly City is interesting. The others have problems ranging from style to doctrinal.
Sure hope they make it faithful to the inspired word we have in the Bible and Spirit of Prophecy, but that is very doubtful if these stills are any indication. Doug Batchelor, are you looking at what your team there is spending the money entrusted on?

30 seconds a week

That’s what one professional animator does.
I guess that is working 40 hours in that week.
That man, on the side, makes personal animations at the clip of 1 minute a month.

The guy who made “We are the Strange” movie by himself, working basically full time on his project (3D), said he averaged 3.85 minutes per month. That is completed, finished, viewable product. Of course this involves story-boarding, animatrics, key frames and other things that i’m just now learning about.

No wonder most animations are short. This is a long, hard, patience-breaking work.

Saw a thing about the DVD “Angel Wars”, and sure don’t want to make that company’s mistake – corupting the original storyline. It would be better to never tell a Bible story, than to tell it untruthfully. Sad to see too, that the comments on Amazon are favorable for it, for its “quality” (read Hollywood quality).
