- Опубліковано 11 вер 2024
- CG version of "The Derelict" from Lost in Space Season 1 episode 2. Created with Poser 7, Photoshop, and Particle Illusion. This is another example of how the clessic series could be recreated with CG and voice talent. This is an unofficial FAN publication.
This particular snippet uses the existing track from LIS with additional sound effects and music cues to enhance the presentation. Enjoy!
I love Penny's uniform. She has ummm developed a bit more for this vid..
The amazing thing about Guy Williams as John Robinson,; even when he was dealing with an alien unknown, he always speaked with a wisdom and authority. You NEVER blew off anything he said!
Armando Catalano the son of Italian immigrants from NYC. That's his REAL name.
I still think the derelict ship is one of the most creative space ship concepts ever. Nice work. I did think it was interesting that you made all the women wear what look like yoga pants 🙂
Because those clothes models were available to me. Had I to do it over I would model something more like season one.
I never realized how apparent the derelict set was a re-use of the brain set from the film "Fantastic Voyage." Whoever created this CGI, great work!

Nice to hear the powerful ringing turbine sounds of the Jupiter 2's engines again, after all these years.
Damn right. Best spaceship sound ever!
Almost as good as the Sound of the MILLENIUM FALCON's Engines when we saw STAR WARS 9 years after LOST IN SPACE ENDED in mid 1968.
rredhawk :Not turbine engines, it's nuclear fusion.
Its actually MAGNETIC ENGINE (which would be SILENT, in use) first built by the engineers and laborers at British Rewinds and Repairs in London, United Kingdom, in 1946, and finally PATENTED, in 2018!

In 1967 I used to rush home from school to watch lost in space
Lost in space came on at 7:30 every Wednesday EVENING WCBS Channel 2 in New York City.. You went to night school in 1967?
back then we had to walk five miles through the snow to school and back :) ohhh wait, that is what my father always said. Lost in Space went into afternoon reruns in the 70's as well for many kids
The Dark Angel I first enjoyed it on WKBD ch.50 in Pontiac MI, a northern suburb of Detroit from 1975-79. It was only run from Memorial Day to Labor Day and was a big part of my summer vacation, from 3-4pm. I'm 48 now and have always been a fan of this wonderfully campy show!
The last season was still on in 1967, but the repeats were definitely on by the next year. I rushed home from school in 1968 to watch them!
I’m from Detroit as well and remember ch. 50. My mom wouldn’t allow me to watch the show when I was 4, she thought it would give me bad dreams. I could only watch in the 70’s. I used to draw the ship all the time. If I was told back then that one day I’d meet Bill Mumy, and actually get to know him a bit, I would have said you were crazy. But that’s exactly what happened to me in the mid 80’s. I worked at a high end restaurant in Birmingham then. One day the owner told me his brother in law was visiting, and would be coming in for dinner. I asked why he was in town. He answered “he’s attending a sci fi show” “he was an actor when he was a boy. Maybe you’ve heard of him. His name is Bill Mumy”. I almost passed out. I couldn’t believe I was going to meet Will Robinson, my childhood hero. He arrived for dinner and I was assigned his table. He couldn’t have been nicer. Very friendly. I told him I was a long time fan and how happy I was to meet him. He and I talked a bit about the show, but I didn’t want to intrude too much. Over the next few years, he came into town every so often. He always remembered my name and asked for me to wait on him. He once asked if I still watched the show. I told him I didn’t have cable, and hadn’t seen it since I was young. He asked what was my favorite episode. We talked a bit about it. Several weeks later a package arrived at my house. It was from California. I opened it, and in it was a VHS cassette. There was an autographed 8x10 as well. He wrote “Have fun John”. The tape had my favorite episode, his favorite episode, and the pilot. I was so flattered and was over the moon. I still have the tape with his hand writing on it. We lost touch after I left the restaurant, but I’ll always remember the few years I got to know my hero, Will Robinson.
Love those engine sound effects! Still great!
Nice work, man, but I prefer the original scenes of J-2 entering the derelict and landing. You have to admit, it's some of the most incredible model work ever done.
Steve Inman I absolutely agree. For the 1960s that was pretty top notch.
+Steve Inman Yes, but it came at a cost. Sometimes, post-production was so complicated, an episode was finished only one week before the broadcast date.
I totally agree the original scenes of the Jupiter 2 entering the derelict was much cooler and better.
Irwin Allen never knew what he wanted Lost in Space to be (and maybe his other series as well). Should the episodes be serious or silly? Easily the most neurotic TV producer who ever lived.😮
I think this was the smoothest landing the Jupiter 2 made in the whole series ^_^
Most were pretty rough back in 1960s
It landed a few times in the third season without crashing.
In Season 3, Episode 3 "Kidnapped in Space", they come across the exact same kind of ship. While circling around it, John said the exact same thing "I've never seen anything like that in my life". Uh John, you just saw that 2 years ago! How did you forget something so startling that you've already forgotten that you had seen it? LOL
Was watching fantastic Voyage, and got a big grin when I heard that Recognizable Jupiter 2 Engine noise during the miniaturization process. :-)
DR. SMITH LOOKS INCREDIBLE!NICE JOB :)
These early episodes of Lost in Space' were gold.
Amazing job you did re-creating this magic.!!
Bravo! I heard that Bill Mumy (Will) made a script called The Epilogue and that the cast did a reading of it in the early '80s. I haven't heard it, yet. but it would be SUPER if you could do the visuals!
+Bobby Burns Of course that is the FIRST thing I thought of when I heard this was going to be on the Bluray. I am tyring to figure out the right approach etc.
"The Derelict" still remains one of the best LiS episodes. Imaginative and simple, if hurt by the lazy writing that dodged the whole question of the Jupiter's interstellar travel ability.
They always confused sublight travel with faster than light speed.... the Jupiter would have taken 5 years to get to Alpha Centauri It was not a warp drive ship
@@theophilusthistle1988 if traveling at speed of light in normal spacetime
And they didn’t know the difference between solar systems and galaxies
They figured the average viewer knew nothing about science, so they just made up their own science.
@@theophilusthistle1988 yes, they got it right at the very beginning, stating the journey would take over 5 years. Then they go into a “hyperdrive” for less than 5 minutes, and suddenly are less than a day away from a habitable planet! They show the planet, but never mention that they traveled and found another star. AC was supposed to be the closest Star! Irwin Allen had no patience for scientific facts! Anyway, it was a pretty good first season, before descending into a campy clown show comedy! Season 3 was a little better as a kid, since I loved seeing the Jupiter 2 in space again! But here, any concept of fuel consumption was thrown out! They could land on a planet, take off, go back to Earth, take off immediately, go BACK to the previous planet, take off AGAIN, and continue cruising around “lost”? Wait, didn’t they just find the way back?? Seriously, I know you can’t apply any logic and science to this show, (even in the first season), with “burning hot comets”, and mentions that they left the galaxy! People in general had no idea, but it was already pretty well known this could not be done, even traveling the speed of light!
Fantastic job with Poser animation and characters. I spent a lot of time with Poser in the 2000s. Very impressive.
I love to hear the sound of the space ship taking off.😊😊😊.
You sure did show Smith for the monster he was at the end!! Nice job!!
Yes. The Fantastic Voyage DVD was used to get those draperies in color.
I really enjoyed when she flew. I understand they had to write so everyone could enjoy the series but that's what I liked.
I'd have hoped that with Irwin Allen's passing, the 'restrictions' he'd put in continuing or reimagining LiS would've ended.
I don't know which of you have ever read the comic books written by Billy Mumy, but, I thought they were wonderful, and showed us a 'what if.'
As Mr. Mumy has said how his attempts to re-boot the series whilst Mr. Allen was alive fell in deaf ears, it's still sad how in this day - with the WONDERFUL Battlestar Galactica's re-imagining by Ronald D.
Moore as a perfect example of taking something and bringing new life to it, still is not something which has been discussed much.
While I love the entire series, it's fair to say the seriousness of LiS's 1st year gave way to campiness, it's those first year plot threads which could be picked up.
Here is but one example of how the LiS fan base shows how POSSIBLE it is to revive ths series (@hamiltonpl; very nice touches of updating Maureen, Penny, Judy, & a grownup - hunky -Will)
I HOPE one day - SOON - it WILL happen.
I love the “brain” fibers borrowed from “Fantastic Voyage.” Nicely done!!! You can even see the blood clot at 5:02.
Pretty good, you do some amazing work.
:) Finally I've found someone who does animated Lost In Space! SUBSCRIBED!
I practically grew up with Lost in Space (even though it was on DVD). Even though it was extremely campy, it managed to captivate me. It still does. I admire your rendition of this classic episode! Great work!
I agree, it is campy and awful watching it as an adult in 2017 but the show captivated me also and makes me very nostalgic, loved the antics of Dr Smith and his sidekick Will oh and the robot of course. You can understand why kids loved this show.
I agree with you. Some of the sweetest memories I have growing up was me Watching this incredible show. The Music, Cast Stories were out of this world, except for the Vegetable Rebellion which even though that episode was not that good it was still fun to watch.
The first season though had some great writing and story ideas, like the first few on the planet when they have to leave in the Chariot because of the climate change the episodes about the journey to save the family had some great emotion and sci-fi! The episodes like Mr. Nobody was so trippy when Penny gets pulled into the alternate dimension, the one where will uses the matter transport machine left by the mute aliens, another great episode, and Will goes back to earth to get medicine for Penny, if they could have kept that tone and the stupid suits hadn’t ruined it to compete with Gillian’s Island and made it more comical and drove Irwin Allen into the shadows he was so pissed off giving into them later.
Terrific, terrific, terrific, Phil. I don't know how you CG folks do what you do, but it's brought my wonderful childhood show to life - many thanks from a life-long fan.
I think you did a great job, I wish the people looked a little bit closer to how the original cast looked but it is still a great job. Love the sound effects of the spaceship and the incredible music by John Williams. Anyone who Loves "Lost In Space" as much as I always will and keeps the history of the show alive gets a big thumbs up from me.
Also great music from Herman Stein, the lesser know of the 2 main composers, (everyone knows the Great John Williams). Stein wrote the great alien sounding music for The Derelict, and also the beloved “Family” theme. He also wrote new music for “There Were Giants in the Earth”, (Dr Smith even got his theme music here, when goofing off and pretending to work), and also music for “Hello Stranger”. At this point, they were mixing and reusing Williams’ and Stein’s music together to great effect!
Nice-you included that antenna that had to be fixed with a spacewalk and then was never seen again. I always drew it when I drew the Jupiter 2.
Penny looked very developed!
I was {ahem} thinking the same thing!
もうこんな事がプロじゃなくても出来るようになったんですねえ。
感慨深いです。
ああ！ここでもまたドクター・スミスが裏切るのかっ！
ワクワク。
Thats really cool. Thats the one episode I can remember. That creepy ship... Dang.
Wow, the outfits on the girls really hugged the curves. Must've been really frustrating to be Major West.
Or Will Robinson
Sounds like it was more frustrating to you!!! “Pant, pant, pant”!!
It’s all ok, though! I was there, panting right by your side!!!
@@timepoet77 yeah, must have been “hard” for Bill (Billy) Mumy! He says he instantly fell in love with Angela Cartwright!! And NO red-blooded male could ever dismiss Marta Kristen!! The poor boy probably had to shove Kleenex in his pants to hide wet spots!!!
Yeah, that was kind of hard to miss. Penny looked like she was wearing body paint.
@@landonjones258 That was cool to notice as a young boy, but I can’t think about that now, (even though Angela is older than me)!
I always knew the Robinson girls were hot, but .. dang .. they must be spray painting clothing on in those days.
+Rafael Martinez I like Mrs Robinson's ass."Are you trying to seduce me Mrs Robinson?"
+MrJacMac1986 :)
+MrJacMac1986 yeah, John caught Don checking out Maureen's ass once. Dr. smith on the other hand never noticed neither Judy nor Mrs. Robinson. He did however have his eye on _____________? To be continued :)
+The Dark Angel "where there is a Will, there's a way"
bryant tillman is that quoting Dr. Smith :)
I like both versions.
It's an alternate universe. I had some issues with creating an adolescent Will in the CG app but I haven't given up on that just yet.
At least you nailed it with the women's hot butts in their tight CG space suits. Yikes!!
Just rewatching this again and can't believe I'm just now noticing how skin tight the girls outfits are in the hind quarters. Shame on you Phil! LOL
Excellent!!!! More please!!!
If Judy, Penny and Maureen had booty like that the show would never have gone off the air ! Awesome J 2 landing footage !!!
Fantastic!!!!!!! They should just hire you and we could have Lost In Space all over again - BUT - better!!!!!! Thank you for all your hard work!!!!!! Greg
OMG this is fantastic! What a great job. Thank you. I remember watching this when it was on in the 60's!
This is fantastic! I could watch this over and over...and probably will.
Great job Phil. I think Smith should order them to turn over their weapons and exit the ship. He thinks he will turn them over to his Aeolius 14 buddies who he thinks are piloting that ship and get a big reward.
Poser 7 was used to animate everything except the smoke effects. That was Particle Illusion. Thanks for the questions. I hope you enjoyed it.
Thanks! Let Space Productions know of your interest. It's likely the only way we will have any new Lost in Space. I apprciate the feedback.
+hamiltonpl
Nice job. It's too bad the whole series didn't get a digital remake the way Star Trek did. It's still a very popular show.
Think the first season had the best writing. The B&W filming gave more impact.
Very Kool CGI :) 👍😃👍
This was obviously a true labor of love. Wonderful job. Just wonderful!
The Robinson ladies were poured into those suits
Reminds me of Star Trek The Movie when vger opened up to let them in. Someone put lots of work into this video. good work, please continue. ty
Why does it always look like the Jupiter 2 is going 35 in a 45 mile an hour zone?
Easy to explain this. See, Major West got word that the PA Police set-up D.U.I. checkpoints in Outer Space. He's just giving one-less reason for a pull-over.
Outstanding!
That's a great effort, congratulations on a very tidy job. I see that Bill is making his move at 3:31. That didn't get resolved for a few more years, though.
This is such a blast to watch! I love the whole look and feel of this video!
Very nicely done!
Thanks Greg. I had fun doing this. It's possible to do Lost in Space if they would just DO IT.
Not bad..while the faces of the characters weren't perfect, you nailed Dr. Smith's face perfectly, he looks just like the evil, conniving Smith we all used to know and love. :-)
Nice job on the Jupiter though.
The original sound FX really add the finishing touch, from the Jupiter powering down for her landing to the raw power she pulsates with that low whirring sound, the sound FX completed the experience. Nice job all around!
Tom of Finland meets Lost in Space!
ahhhhhh hahahaha
They put the 'ass' in 'asteroid'!
the person who made these short episodes, should go ahead a make one big movie. there are great!!
So, the inside of the Derelict is Dr. Benes' brain from "Fantastic Voyage"??
Yes. Lost in Space filmed on FANTASTIC VOYAGE stages at Fox for this episode.
@@hamiltonpl I did not know that....Clever use, for Irwin's story.... I wouldn't have guessed.
absolutly great. But where is the rest of it?
That was absolutely SMASHING!!
EXCELLENT!!!
should have finished the series with season 4 episodes...and the family returning to Earth...and mission completed with new Jupiter 2 landing on Alpha Centurie
CBS had a bad habit of ending shows without closure. Both "Lost in Space" and "Gilligan's Island" were cancelled so abruptly, the actors weren't even told! They read about their cancellations in Variety magazine. "The Incredible Hulk" ended too soon as well. Bill Bixby wanted a series finale where Dr. Banner finally found a solution, but CBS refused.
I could not agree with you more!!!! I wish there was a season 4 with the Robinsons returning to Earth. It is too late now, but that would have been awesome!!!
I wish there was a copy of the whole series like this, just for the novelty value. :)
It would be great if someone could just update the special effects such as the crash landings and space scenes with CGI, and maybe spice up the episodes a bit.
Totally agree John!!!!
No. They did that with Star Trek, and I HATED it!
David Lafleche I watch the new version effects of Star Trek on ME TV.. Have to say, I like the new effects very much, like a new show!!
Yes, Class M planets should have some clouds.
Pretty Damn Good. I love it. The wax figures coming to life. Might I ask for more?????
I was age 10 at the shows episodes. As I grew, understood more of reality. The J2 wasn't fast enough to get that lost/far from Earth without finding the way back. And the show began as interesting in what space travel is. The show became more comedy, far too silly even when I was young.
Pretty cool for what it is.
That was EXCELLENT! Thank you for posting!
4:14 Yes John.. because moving further back from the window will protect you from a collision in outer space LOL.
fantastic
this is wonderful!......thanks!
In this version I hope they leave Doctor Smith behind on the Derelict.
WOW! This is awesome!
This was a scary episode. It was for a 12 year old boy. That has been over half a century it probably wouldn't be anymore for someone my age.
There was nothing wrong with effects to the spaceship encounter. The effects were PERFECT and I wouldn't change them one bit. The only that needed work on was the approach to the planet in the cliffhanger. That looked fake.
THIS IS AWESOME!
This is brilliant, I see Will is working out now. The girls look great but the two guys have morphed into ugly. At least we've got the voices of John and Don :)
Will done sir!
The gals are interesting, but Will is in his 20s? Fun clip for sure.
That is excellent! Very impressive.
No fear..smith is here..i remember that words when i was young in Argentina 50 years ago..
I just found your work and it is awesome. A new look to one of my favorite series. Thanks for the new journeys and letting us relive some of the old ones.
FANTASTIC! Which tool set did you use? I know it might be a long list, but great job! Did you create the J2?
What should happen? Smith fire? Run away like a coward? Or is he really there to help?
Where did they store the bus on tank tracks in the Jupiter 2 ? The ship didn't look like it was anywhere near big enough. TV I guess.
Right. Like the New Thunderbirds. Even Captain Scarlett was done this way. Lost in space and Star Trek should be done, too.
I can never get enough of this or any of your work sir!
That is really AWESOME Phil. I have been following your work as best I can. Always impressive! I can't wait to see what you will be doing next with the Lost In Space franchise.
well done
Any ‘lost in space’ fans here.
Nice!
A little more modern clip of Lost in Space. I think this would have been episode 2. The crew doesn't even look like the show's original characters. Note the more modern hairstyles. John, Don and Smith are recognizable. So is Will, but he is much taller. They sound like the originals. Odd how people are still major fans of the 50 + year old tv program. They keep trying to reinvent it and keep it going in a number of ways.
No, but in Season Three she was absolutely hot, and what georgeous hair she had...
GREAT!!!!!!!!
Spectacular
Well done all the same!
Awesome job and great tribute to the series!!!! Nice personal touches as well! Bet this was a labor of love and it shows!!! Keep up the great work man, you have skills!!!
Wish that would make more of them.the first year was the best. New episodes. Have them on a prehistoric plant with there force feild to keep out the monsters . but they would have to go out. To explore and gather food. Each time they would have new adventures.
