@@thomashigginson2807 I was fortunate to meet Albert and Syd on a job in Munich years ago, and grilled Albert about his work for hours which he loved, and heard some amazing anecdotes, then met Bill years later in LA, another seriously nice and talented guy... They've created a phenomenal legacy, and glad I met them..
Our channel assumes most are familiar with traditional matte shots (shooting both live-action and painting on the same original negative), but it will be helpful for us to put up a video that walks through the entire process for new fans to this lost art form. We've got one coming up!
Keep em coming! Wonderful stuff!
Thank you, Steve, for your feedback! Wind for the traditionally matte painted sails!

Loving these videos! Your efforts are amazing 👏
Thank you, Glen! Syd is so understanding as we fumble our way to putting these videos together!
@@thomashigginson2807 Bless your hearts. The work you guys are doing is phenomenal and inspiring.
I couldn't understand the process from Mel Brook's description until I saw this, but I still didn't see the hole-in-the-matte trick he talked about.
