THE ROCK
Nicolas Case and Sean Connery star in the benchmark of Michael Bay action films.

I posted a clip from the LiningUpTV archives of Richard Edlund, the Academy Award winning VFX Supervisor for Star Wars. Here he talks about the jump to Hyperspace in the Millenium Falcon.

Now that Con is over, time to regroup and share the photos! Check the Comic Con 2007 Photo Album!

The Tools

Transformers uses six Meridian Avids on Unity with about 2 terabytes of storage. A Nitris is used for all screenings including their preview. There are three main edit rooms, a fourth system in a closet, the assistants have two systems, and director Michael Bay has one. There’s a Media Net hook-up used for daily transmissions between ILM and Bay.

“For 3d modeling ILM used mostly Maya, 3ds Max, Zeno and zBrush,” says Farrar. “For lighting and rendering we use Zeno with RenderMan and Mental Ray. For compositing it’s all Shake along with our Sabre systems, and editing uses Avids.”

“I watched the first episode of the [1984] TV series just to get a flavor”, says Rubell. “I didn’t want to be influenced beyond that. None of the editors are fan-boys, so we were often taken to the Bay woodshed for cutting out some important reference to the original series. But, we were able to bring a more mainstream perspective to the story.” Muldoon says, “The movie is so much bigger that nothing from before in the TV show applies. The movie is huge.” Scantlebury says, “I didn’t look at anything from prior Transformers because nothing can help you
cut a Michael Bay movie.”

There’s also a great interview with Michael Bay. LINKY

Only in its second week, Transformers has become the highest grossing film from director Michael Bay. Even bigger than Armageddon.

From HR:

With a cumulative gross of an estimated $223 million, “Transformers” has become director Michael Bay’s highest-grossing movie, motoring past 1998’s “Armageddon,” which grossed $201.5 million. It also is the fifth release of 2007 to cross the $200 million mark.

We always knew he had the Touch.

An interview with ILM / Transformers Art Director talks details about the robot designs and models.

While watching Transformers for a third time, I noticed that Xbox 360 makes a quick appearance as a Decepticon!
