Please keep bringing in all these old hands from VFX, not just because it's cool, but because you're capturing the history. Stuff that's at real risk of being lost or forgotten. You're creating an oral history of VFX here, and that's really important.
Thank you for all the great comments we shot more hope they put another one together. We have many more film we didn't get to cover .It takes so many people to do these films . I'm lucky to have a hand and say so on them. William Mesa
Well done all and thanks William for coming on and sharing these incredible insights and brilliant stories like the phone numbers in the windows etc 😅👍
Honestly I've been a fan of evil dead for decades, watching 2, starship troopers and other classics in 4th grade instantly got me hooked on awesome gore and horror, stoked to see them cover it
I was on the Army Of Darkness set for those effects and it was a blast. Bill had to run back and forth between different sets to keep up withall the different shots going on. He always seemed very chill and calm in the midst of the chaos
@skilllanoodle do you love the episode where they dive into the illegal activies of betterhelp? Lol you can't CC wants you to use their services instead even after knowing betterhelp seems users information.
@HardCodedGaming the world sure is a wacky place when such a big UA-cam channel chooses to take sponsorship and coerce their viewers to get help from betterhelp after knowing betterhelp sells confidential patient data
Terrific guest. Thanks guys. Love it when you bring in a person who has had such a career in the industry and whose work has been a part of our film going lives. Kudos to Bill Mesa.
@1jotun136 do you like the kind of disrespect cc shows to their viewers by getting sponsorship from betterhelp? That are known to sell confidential data ?
Nico, i really love your respect and research to break down the effects for someone completely out of your time. i could see your genuine respect in this one. Good show
Fun fact: Maximum Surge was cancelled, and the footage was used in the film titled "Game Over". They pretty much ripped footage from several FVM games, stitched them together, and released a really sh*** movie
@@RJrules64 well at least, this time they brought the main poineer of IntroVision. I forgot to specify that It was amazing that they brought the main guy who has deep knowledge about IntroVision.
Wow Corridor! I actually know Bill's son, Charlie, and it's wild to see him on the show! Great to see you guys nerd out over what Bill has done for films. Especially Army of Darkness!
We had The Fugitive and Army of Darkness at the theater I worked at. Two of my favorite movies. The train crash was so visceral on the big screen. I still love watching those movies!
It's fascinating to hear about the ingenuity and creativity in film production from veteran artists. Interesting to learn about the origination of effects techniques and how they've evolved over time.
Well the beam splitter itself is at 45 degrees, but the light traveling through changes 90 degrees in the process. They put the right number, but the wrong visual.
OK, if you're going to bring up Outland, you NEED to look at 2010: The Year We Make Contact (1984), from the same director. It builds on Outland's groundbreaking Jupiter effects, as well as having amazing use of standard practical effects.
Ive been facinated by visual effects since i was a kid. A show called Movie Magic used to air on USA network. It was almost a proto version of this. I think it would be great to get a reaction to some segments of that show or even a discussion about the shows influence on any of the crew (if it had any). Thanks!
'Fearless' is a great movie and the final sequence with the extended flashback to the plane crash is absolutely masterful! Those who are interested in the early history of visual effects would recognise that the Introvision process essentially combines front-projection with one of the oldest effects tricks, used in the silent era to combine live action with miniatures in-camera, called the Schüfftan process!
He’s one of the friendliest people you’ll ever meet in the biz and he loves talking about and supporting VFX. He does volunteer work for the student program that the Academy runs every Summer and helps teach the new generation about VFX and VFX Supervision.
Nice. From Introvision to using a free game engine to run The Volume. I'd really like to know how film audio transitioned from sounding like, you know, retro, to the dynamic sound we have today.
My betterhelp therapist told me to call the cops when I was feeling mentally off after my dad died. I told him I needed to talk to someone and he said he couldn't do anything. Almost caused me to have a bigger breakdown but thankfully I pulled thru. Betterhelp is a scam.
This is an amazing episode! Hands up for this magician of the image and screen. Every kid and adult that has shivered in front of a tv owes you William.
This one feels special, some of these techniques are nothing short of magic. I wonder if maybe you can arrange some kind of effects bootcamp where people like Bill Mesa can pass on their skills.
To pass them for what purpose? Those skills are ancient now, they are not used in movie making. They all make great stories, but the skills are futile now.
8:01 What you’re thinking of when locomotives have steam coming out of the sides is usually the cylinder cocks being open. They’re basically a drain that lets steam which has condensed back into water, out of the cylinders since water is incompressible and could cause damage. These are mostly used when pulling away from a stop, as the cylinders cool down with no active steam flow. The steam escaping through the drain while open is what creates the characteristic steam cloud. The brakes themselves were either vacuum or air-operated, using a steam-powered vacuum generator or air compressor. I’m not exactly an expert, so there’s probably more nuance to it.
I immediately came to the comments to make sure someone else clarified this! To add, the air brakes use a steam powered air pump, but the system itself is charged with air, so you wouldn't see steam ejection from "bleeding the brakes".
For some background, my dad (Bill) directed a lot of Sega games back in the early 90s (back when they filmed live footage for gameplay and cut scenes). He’s recently remastered a lot of these games for classic game collectors and has been working on releasing Maximum Surge, which was their largest budget game, that was considered too expensive to finish, so they stop production on it when it was about 85% done.
@@TheNovaProspect Your dad is a treasure! Please pass along some sincere thank-yous from a classic games enjoyer, his work in preserving video game history is genuinely one of the best ways future generations will get to experience it!
First of all, thank you William for your work on Army of Darkness, it's such a fun film and the effects really are a big part of that. Secondly I hope the FMV games go well, we don't have enough of those these days.
I like that you're talking about the history of VFX with the people who were actually there, and getting behind the scenes images and stuff like that, please do more of it.
Great video ❤ better help sold users personal info. Look it up. These are people who are in need of mental help and so for a company to do that in this field I personally believe completely denounces their trustworthiness/legitimacy. Just my opinion.
Love seeing how well all this old stuff holds up. You guys should check out some Helldivers gameplay if you haven’t already done the cutscene. Games are getting to the point now where gameplay footage is on par with cutscenes, could be interesting to explore the computer power required
Man I love learning about the old school solutions to these problems, the perfect blend of creative and technical. And then to get it straight from the guy that actually did it ? Fantastic. (doesn't often seem to be in the conversation when people talk about Jeff Bridges films but I really liked "Fearless", great movie IMO - and at the time I didn't even realise the roof scene was VFX !)
I think it goes back to what they mentioned in the real vs fake knife video. The performance with a physical prop is so much realer and leaves room for unexpected things to happen.
Part of the reason is that modern actors have not lived or faced danger, they have not really lived life. They haven't done much in terms of practical effects, and they are acting against a green screen so they don't see what is going on around them in the movie. That's painted in later. So THEIR reactions are not right for the events around them, you feel less pulled in and see less danger.
Oh man, I watched Outland only recently, like last year or so, and the VFX still impressed me! The film aged really well! It's so nice to see the supervisor for these effects talk about the movie!
UA-camrs overall need to be more selective with their in camera sponsor reads. The ad creep in the platform is bad enough, but even worse when it’s for scammy or bad products.
That's just simply not true. I would recommend doing a little bit of research on them because what you've read in UA-cam comment sections is inaccurate and exaggerated. Cinema Therapy actually made a very, very lengthy post that addresses literally every single complaint anyone has voiced about Betterhelp
Y'all really failed on the sponsor vetting front this time. BetterHelp was caught selling people's health data, and are really not a company that should be promoted. I hope y'all can do better going forward.
I really love how he was playing around with the armature from army of darkness like it isnt quite a rare but of history. It really shows how its all still fun to him ❤
This was so awesome. Thank you for having this gentleman on your program. I grew up fascinated with practical and in camera effects and when the industry shifted more toward CGI I found myself less interested in the process so this was super fun to see. Thanks!!
Better Help? my GOD how many youtube channels do I have to unsubscribe from? WILL YOU UA-camRS STOP SCAMMING YOUR AUDIENCE WITH THESE FRAUDULENT EVIL SPONSORSHIPS
Love old school VFX! You guys should check out "Freaked" (1993). There's a handful of pretty impressive scenes with a conjoined twin effect. Two actors fused at the waist that share one set of legs. The first shot is at min mark: 28:15 and I'll bet you can probably guess it. But the second is later in the film where the characters dance (min mark 36:28) and it looks nearly impossible. But I'm quite sure it's all in-camera.
The ad space for UA-cam and podcasts is a nightmare and is collapsing in on itself. All of the companies that started advertising on these platforms because it was cheap have become huge, which usually means ethics take a backseat to profits. Some of my favorite Podcaster still have squares pace ads after one of their execs said that young people working should accept slave wages and be happy about it. Unfortunately, this ad scheme is what keeps content creators afloat.
@@Werewolf914 Selling recorded therapy sessions to other companies unless one opts out, and hiring unqualified therapists, as far as I can remember. They may have changed for the better however.
still people do better help sponsoring...... how can you still support them after they charge for services people didnt order. or getting with "therapists" who are not even real therapists. You straight up supporting scam artists.
I worked at a movie theater in college. I watched AOD 20 times! (1992?) Unfortunately, it wasn't at our theater. It was at the mall, but we had a trade out deal for employees.
That’s my dad! Hell yeah!
A man that deserves his flowers and I’m glad he’s getting them today. Love you, dad!
Cool! You must've had a rad childhood. Was there stuff like models and props or your dad's workshop around your house growing up?
You should be proud. Your dad seems like a cool guy and would be fun to pick his brain

@@Aterhallsam Like most great times, we didn't realize how great they were until they were gone. But Introvision in the mid-80s was indeed awesome.

Totally agree don't want their contributions to be forgotten.

Absolutely!!! These guys were so innovative with the tools they had at their disposal. This is a great opportunity to document how they did it.

@@BazukinBelyugovich Thank you, it's going very well. 👍
It would have to be on UA-cam After Dark, because there would be quite a bit of purple prose.
