09.06.08 * 'Necronauts': A supposed project
involving Uncle Ray? .... Have no idea if this is
true. Just remember, do not instantly believe anything on the
internet. Even with Wikipedia,
you should have a healthy skepticism of
some of their information
(& here).
So 'Necronauts' may or
may not happen. They don't know if it's for big screen or TV.
When you hear the phrase, 'in development' that is even more vague.
Possibly just an idea in the file for the distant future (like the Furry
Freak Brothers maybe??), after I'm pushing
up daisies. Well, I throw
it out here. Up to you, if you wish to dig up more info on 'Necronauts'.
If you do,
post it at messageboard,
Ray
Park & Ray Harryhausen Join ‘The Necronauts’ EDIT: 09.07.08* Stop Motion with iPhone .... For all of you whose lives revolves around your cell phones. Thankfully, California recently enacted new law to prohibit cell phone to ear conversating while driving. For about 1-1/2 years, I have had a prepaid cell phone. It got very boring for me. All this preoccupation with cell phone toys. I hardly ever use it. Cost me only about $60. of prepaid minutes which last me a year (I'm not much of a phone yakker), verses your approximately $400.+ per year contractual plan!? Oh, back to topic. Some people have come out with an application that you can download to your iPhone (Apple product users even more fanatical!) and you can supposedly do Stop Motion with it. This review seems honest and they somewhat give it a thumbs down. For a small fee, companies should consult with me how to design good Stop Motion software in their products. Here is their website Watch it Change. Maybe simplistic or crude, but perhaps another minor way that could help 'Stop Motion' enter the general 'public consciousness'. EDIT: 09.07.08 * Why CG? .... Don't know who the writer is but another interesting commentary about CGI excess. Written last year but still most relevant,The Martin Anderson column: CG-why P.S. No pretty thumbnail images embedded in SMW News here this week (no time).
