Introducing: MAGIC CHEF
CPC Associates, Hollywood, CA 1982 -
This was the first commercial produced with this stop motion character. The CPC team and I went to Florida to film pro golfer Jack Nicklaus and his daughter Nan. From a 2D-client logo I designed and built this character and his replacement heads. I supervised the plate shoot and back at CPC’s Hollywood effects studio, I did the stop motion animation, lighting and compositing. We shot about six 30 second commercials with this character. CPC was nice enough to let me bring my wife and two young daughters along to Florida. I loved Florida’s key lime pie!

When contact printing, if the humidity was too hi...

The Beast From Mystic Valley

Welcome to my You Tube channel...this is my first posting. This is a test matte shot I did in 2012 called "The Beast from Mystic Valley." I shot the plate at a hiking area near Mount Boney in Thousand Oaks, CA. I am headed for that strange rock formation where the beast is reported to dwell. Everything is hand painted in Photoshop except for the sky and foreground rock. Compositing done with Af...
This was great. Do you still have the original dinosaur animations (on film) from the Land of the Lost? It would be amazing if those were transferred in HD. A lot of the detail was lost back when they transferred it for use (at standard def) in the TV series.
I only have about 12 of my shots on 35mm color work print. It was too difficult to get an extra print for oneself during production.
gotcha. It would e amazing to see what you did have. But I understand the challenges of getting the film transferred at this point. Thanks.
Just wanted to echo what others have said: thank you for posting this video. I have been trying to find more information on these printers and the processes surrounding them. There is surprisingly little information on these incredible machines; especially when one considers their groundbreaking contributions to modern day image making.
Classic
A classic! So cool you worked on this!
Love this!!! ❤
Thank you, Mr. Miner.
I was a Optical camera operator a line up man and color timer My favorite career by far I miss it.
Cool Fact! My dad designed, built, and animated the helping hand.
Also, did the ad agency give you a character design drawing to work off of, or did you design the character from scratch? Thank you!
The ad agency had no designs, they just said they wanted a stylized hand.
@@waltonartvisualeffects1077 Thank you for the reply and fantastic designing on your part. =)
Fantastic design and animation work! Thank you for sharing this!
You are welcome.

Coming soon!

Hamburger Helper looks depressed.
In Kansas, we call them bierocks.
Absolutely crazy that this was found! I only wish some early Gumby footage were included
Well, at least he's on the Cheerios box.
holy smokes, this is so amazing!! thank you so much for posting this, i've been super interested in optical printing lately and have found it super hard to find in-depth documentation of the process. on the edge of my seat for part 2 (and beyond!) :+}
Glad you like my video.
I've noticed that the mouth of a Hamburger Helper's ''Helping Hand'' mascot wasn't designed yet and his design looks a little messy compared to the shiny final touches being used on the character.
Mad Magazine!
Mad Magazine!
If you read my description, you will know why he looks this way.
The beaver in that Cheerios commercial would later go on to appear in the 1957 Gumby episode "Tree Trouble."
Bobs big boy was made by my father Bill Swan
