    I was the SFX floor supervisor for Ted lasso Season 2, you got it right about the wire work, we had a huge crane in and the stunt guy really landed in the dumpster, he was soo close to the edge we only did one take of it. I was going to have some air mortors in the skip to launch trash but I pulled them after testing due to safety concerns of the accuracy of his fall. So the little puff of dust was a little bit sprinkled on top and put in post. I've got some behind the scenes pics and videos if you guys want to see them? Love your stuff also!

    Hi there. I was a grip trainee on the musketeers. I was standing on the roof of that set and had to keep an eye on the wires. It was a crazy rig to hold 2 to 3 actors together on wires and have them move all over this narrow-ish ladder room. The cables got tangles a lot. I had to watch out if it got out of hand. The stunt coordinator was the most hardcore dude i ever met. They had a bus full of stunt guys. They got hurt a lot and got exchanged straight away. One down a new one in. No mercy. That was a crazy shoot a long time ago. Thanks for the nostalgia trip ;) Greetings from luxembourg.

    The movie Roar, had a young Melanie Griffith in it.
    Melanie was mauled by a lion during filming, and required plastic surgery. Griffith reportedly received 50 stitches to her face. It was feared she would lose an eye, but she recovered and was not disfigured. On another occasion, a lion grabbed her hair and wouldn't let go. That shot made it into the film.

    • @lisah-p8474
      @lisah-p8474 5 месяцев назад +56

      Melanie's mom Tippi Hedren (not Henderson like Nico said lol) had her leg broken by an elephant during filming as well. Because of course they had elephants too!! She was climbing on/off the elephant's back and started to slip and the elephant tried to help her with its trunk. It wrapped its trunk around her legs to catch her and squeezed too tight. Broke her ankle. Again, like Nico said not an attack. Very much the opposite! But overall the set was very reckless and haphazard.

      @@lisah-p8474 That elephant example weirdly sells the risk of wild animals more than the lions. Elephants have a stereotype for being kind and docile (atleast for people who don't actually see wild elephants) so the notion of a gentle giant actively trying to help and still breaking legs I feel is more intuitive. There's not an animals alive that doesn't kill; herbivores, cuddly, fluffy, and cute ones included.

    Turns out the reason why The Musketeer’s final fight is similar to that of Once Upon a Time in China is because The Musketeer’s fight choreographer Hung Yan-Yan aka Xiong Xin-Xin played one of the main characters in and stunt doubled for Jet Li in the Once Upon a Time in China series. So it was basically Hung Yan-Yan basically paying tribute to the very Hong Kong martial arts film that made him big.

      Selling the pain isnt hard really. Just act how you would in real life. Thats basically what gui said. People say JC is comical in his doings but its what one would do in real life. Rubbing where it hurts. Weird face because of a hit to the jaw or nose. All thing a regular human being does when they get hurt. All of it has a single purpose to lessen the pain. What hollywood does that really never happen in real life are 3 minutes long fast fights. In real life its more like 2 to 5 moves, break, rinse and repeat until an opening.

    I'm always excited when people talk about the Last Samurai. The film is pure eye candy and has a lot of emotional weight to it. The music is excellent, the acting is awesome, and the stuntwork is spectacular. I almost wish you guys would've shown at least part of the forest battle, ninja battle, or final stand. I think the final battle included over 500 extras with guns and melee weapons in broad daylight instead of during rain or at night, making the whole battle feel more visceral and alive than most battle scenes.

If you ask Martin Scorsese where he got his idea's he'll start talking about Akira Kurosawa. Seven Samurai, Rashomon, Ran, Yojimbo, Throne of Blood, there's so many great movies. And that's just the best director, It's like a whole genre of Japanese film.
      If anyone hasn't already, go watch the original Seven Samurai from 1954. Get some popcorn, put your phone away, dim the lights, clear 3 hours 24 minutes on your schedule and watch Seven Samurai. Toshiro Mifune alone makes it worth the time.

    for stuntmen react It would be cool to see you react to the duel from "Potop", it's really good sword fight
    The "CHARGE " Blender short would be awesome for the VFX series. As well as *Aslan from the Chronicles of Narnia!* where you could do a comparison to the "live action" Lion King. Also at the end of second Chronicles of Narnia movie there's a big water creature, so it might be cool to see what you think about that.
    The *last agni kai fight from ATLA* would be perfect for for the Animators React. It's so stunning!

And at one point she turned to me and was telling me how impressed she was with the martial arts and how the actors were Olympic level athletes (as they jumped from a standstill 15 feet straight up onto a rooftop while kicking in the air). When I explained it to her she was annoyed and said I had ruined the the film. O_O

    being when Bond leaps off the truck onto the ground and rolls out of the way of another truck
    just in time. Seeing if and where VFX may have been used would be cool too.
    The whole opening sequence of Skyfall (2012).
    The leap off the bridge in No Time To Die (2021). I read it was a 150 foot leap.
    The Crocodile Farm Escape and the Boat Jump in Live and Let Die (1973)

    Just hearing Gui talk about the actual story for The Last Samurai made me emotional. I love how far the show has come and how it's developed. I always loved stunt work but now it's easier to see and appreciate with more vocabulary of what I'm seeing. The body language of the character to sell pain driven by his motivation really helps understand why some movies land the impact of character development. I love that it wasn't just another rant about "who was the last samurai". This has to be one of my favorite episodes so far. I love Gui's confidence in expressing everything in a natural and safe environment. He really knows what he wants to say and means what he says. Such a joy to catch any episode of the show, regardless of if it's stunts, visual effects, or animation artists. It's added a whole new level of consuming and digesting media. The way this channel has impacted my entertainment part of life has seeped into not only tv and movies, but also video games. I'm always thinking of "this was done practically" when I see an explosion or that the principle characters are doing the stunts themselves and I have a silly good time enjoying games in a new perspective. I feel like a kid again watching all those special features on the DVD's and at the end of the VHS tapes (sometimes the start). Thank you so much.

    As historically inaccurate as The Last Samurai was, the one thing I'll give it was the sparring with bokken in the rain featured the samurai striking Tom Cruise with the pommel of his bokken ( a rare, but authentic kenjutsu move). It's done as a non-lethal strike as is using the sword handle to grapple with the opponent's wrists and hands. It was showed the samurai striking Tom with the "flat" of the bokken in another non-lethal strike meant to stun or injure rather than kill. The samurai was clearly looking to beat up Tom Cruise, but not kill him (which is still easily possible with a bokken).
