This being an Israeli film, I doubt there will be a bluray... We ain't there yet.

The animation touch brings a surreal element to it, which is what I think they are looking for. After all very few people can imagine having been in war and witnessing that kind of human destruction and torment. The animation brings it out better, imo.
8 out of 10 dentists prefer zipfero to competing brands(fraich3 and Mutantius)!

wow .. yeah I just downloaded it and it looks like shit... I was expecting something more like 'A Scanner Darkly' in terms of quality. But given there is no 'Sony Pictures Classics' in the opening, so this is probably not the NA release ... maybe it will look better. Given this is the first animated movie to be nominated for 'best foreign film' I would expect a more top notch presentation.
I know this is not the same animation technique in this as ASD (rotoscoping) but the look is very similar.
actually I read something interesting about this...
Quote: | Rotoscoping vs the Bashir technique
Contrary to industry rumours, the animation in Waltz with Bashir was not achieved through rotoscoping techniques and Goodman actively fights this misconception whenever he can.
‘I’d like to state that the movie has absolutely zero percent rotoscope. Every time one of my animators hears or reads about someone on the other side of the planet saying the movie was in rotoscope, I get a phone call, regardless of the hours.’
Rotoscoping is an animation technique where animators trace over live-action footage, frame-by-frame, to create an animated version of the film movement. The original process involved the projection (rotoscope was the name given to the projection equipment) of images onto a frosted glass panel and these were then redrawn by the animator by hand. These days through the use of digital visual effects, rotoscoping now refers to the technique of manually creating a matte for an element on a live-action plate for compositing over a background. The animators behind Waltz with Bashir feel that the misconception that their animation was created with this technique diminishes the quality of their work. Goodman says that, in a way, this is true.
‘Every movement in this movie was created and invented in the animator’s head, and not copied over live footage. Sometimes we watched the interviews for reference, but we never drew over them. Instead we tried to stylise and re-create them.’
Goodman describes the technique he and his animation team devised for Bashir as being a lot of hard work, but ultimately achieves the effect that aligned with Folman’s vision of his film.
‘While rotoscope is a legitimate technique, I’m not very fond of how it’s used in most cases,’ Goodman explains. ‘Most of the time it feels a bit like a Photoshop filter over live footage, and it lacks some spontaneity. Cutout was really our only option in terms of budget and manpower, and we tried to harness the disability of the cutouts technique to our advantage, making a simple and stylised movement, which allowed us to get different and rich results.’ |
