Renaissance - 9/10
Loved it. Amazing animation, and a pretty decent plot as well. This is why we need more mature CG films.
fantastic movie, I wish they co loured it though.
**** man, do you know how many times that phrase would have helped me explain my feelings.IMO colour would make it lose some of the effect it had. I think the animation, in particular the facial animation, was so amazing because it was slightly detached from reality, or because it was simplified in that they only had to work in monochrome. Put in colours and it looks more realistic, you start to identify it more with reality which creates the uncanny valley effect. As is there were parts that, to me, looked entirely life-like, purely because the art style drew me in so far. It's like... an unrealistic sort of realism.
Or something.
Yep, it's called rotoscoping. Same applies to Linklater's earlier film Waking Life.Did you know that every frame was hand animated over? 'Each minute of animation required 500 hours of work with 50 animators working full-time every day'.

Yeah, but every time I hear the term rotoscoping, I think of some old english prospector or something, surveying a section of land from atop a huge pedal-powered gyrocopter, all the while puffing away on his pipe and twirling his magnificent bastard of a moustache. Then I remember what it actually is and can't help but feel slightly disappointed.Yeah, but rotoscoping is ****ing awesome.
It would be kind of hardcore, though, tracing over an entire 3D movie in 2D. Stupid, but hardcore.
