Uber Volume 1 will simultaneously intrigue and horrify readers
Uber Volume 1 will simultaneously intrigue and horrify readers #comics #comicbooks
In advance of Kieron Gillen and Caspar Wjingaard’s upcoming comic The Power Fantasy, we’re revisiting some of Gillen’s previous creator-owned work. Uber has been on my “to-read” list for the better part of a decade. It’s an alternate history/superhero comic from Kieron Gillen, Canaan White, Keith Williams, and Digikore Studios set in World War II where the Germans are on the edge of surrender…

it wouldnt be some 80s comics without some pain so lets get hurting
Tumblr media
[ID: Caption box: Meanwhile, at a ballet class attended by Buster's girlfriend Jesse… A gratuitous panel of four presumably teen girls in sleeveless leotards looking out the window. Jesse asks "What is it?" One answers "Looks like the Rolands are leaving town! They've packed everything --including the kitchen sink!" Close of three looking out the window, mild expressions of shock on their ingenue faces. The speaker continues "I really can't believe anyone would take this robot business seriously!" Jesse cries a single tear thinking "There's no escape from this Madness!" In the dance locker rooms, Jesse stands in elegant contrapposto of distress thinking "I thought coming here would take my mind off Buster--fora little while, at least. But knowing that he's risking his life to save his father is eating me up inside! Guess I was only fooling myself! I can't stop wondering if I'll ever see Buster again!" Caption Box: While back at the ark… Buster kneels over his father, fingers to his pulse. Optimus, looming in the fore asks "Is your father still functioning?" Buster pleads up at him "My father's not a machine! He's flesh and blood! And if we don't get him to a hospital fast--he'll die!" Ratchet in the back says "Perhaps I can help!" END]
sorry thats as long and as hateful as i ever intend to be here. boy i hate comics tho...
this episode of transformers is brought to you by: jarring cuts!
Tumblr media
[ID: A military jeep driving, a human voice inside it says "I'd give anything to get a little sleep, but if you and this truck aren't delivered to the 4067th M.A.S.H unit in time, my goose'll be cooked! This is all your fault, old friend! If you weren't such a hotshot mechanic they wouldn't need you to repair their ambulances.' END]
[anime girl image] MASH REFERENCE 🎊🎉🥳 (yes sparkplug will be having war flashbacks the whole comic. technically. theres a point to it)
Tumblr media
[ID: Two EMT's get into the front seats of Ratchet in alt mode. Passenger: This is the only ambulance available, and we need it. Ratchet: What? Driver: Did you hear that squeak? Passenger: We'll get it fixed after we bring back that heart attack victim! As they drive off Ratchet thinks: These men seem to mean well! I'll just keep quiet and help them! After all, it's the least I can do as a doctor-- even if an earthling is my patient--and it's better than waiting! END]
oh by the way ratchet is just parked outside the hospital cause he drove sparky there. what a nice fella. also im not showing any of it but actually the AUTOBOTS are the ones that hurt him... like. accidentally but they werent being.. VERY NICE either. bad vibes all around.
Tumblr media
[ID: Various dinosaurs in a cretaceous vista. A character narrates. "In a volcano-ringed valley, inhabited by weird, alien creatures, some even larger than ourselves. The drone found its answer…" A single transformer walks fully over one of the dinosaurs in the clearing. The speaker continues "The cybertronic life form was none other than the Decepticon known as Shockwave!" Editors note: "Long-time marvel readers will recognize this place as the savage land, prehistoric domain of the present-day Ka-zar!" END]
(sees 5 specific kinds of dinosaurs) OH BOY OH BOY. shut the fuck up marvel editor. THATS DINOBOT ISLAND where my friends the DINOBOTS live. jeez... also shockwave bigfooting it up, as tfs are wont to do.
anyway get ready for the meg.op comedy hour
Tumblr media
[ID: Ironhide shouting: What are we waiting for? Let's get him! Optimus: No! That's exactly what he wants!-- so he can pick us off easily! Let him come to us! END]
Tumblr media
[ID: Caption box: One after another, the Decepticons enter Mount St. Hilary, pushing the attack… Megatron stands in the left fore, his troops in the mid, and Optimus high on distant hill on the right. He calls out: I'm coming for you, Optimus. Our war is nearly ended! He thinks: Too many of my men stand between me and Optimus! My fusion cannon would destroy them as well! Bah! A small price to pay to rid myself of my constant foe forever! END]
normal thinks to say and think megs. wow
Tumblr media
[ID: Optimus large in fore, looking same direction the camera is focused. He and the other Autobots shaded in dark purple and black. The Decepticons, in full colour, seekers flying above, and the rest charging down the middle, all firing weapons. Megatron yells "Prepare to be DESTROYED!!!" END]
HEY. THATS NOT HALF BAD. a panel with dynamic composition and values that direct the eye??? I CANT BELIEVE IT. also i just noticed. lets all thank soundwave's head being obscured in this panel. THEY LEFT IN A PURPLEWAVE!!!! he endures... seek him out where the remaster dare not go.
Tumblr media
[ID: Megatron firing his fusion canon, shouting "You're mine, Optimus!" Optimus yells in pain, his arm melting, and his gun dropping to the ground. END]
as im always saying...
anyway yeah the autobots win in the end cause sparkplug sabotaged the fuel he made for them, JUST LIKE HE DID WHEN HE WAS A POW IN THE KOREAN WAR... jesus. comic of people who like. have heard how drama is supposed to work, without perhaps. really getting why it works. at least it looked nice...
fucking hell. anyway and then shockwave shows up and tramples the autobots. THE END
Tumblr media
[ID: Printed comic. Caption Box: --Into Shockwave! Shockwave stands in full view, light emanating behind him, rubble, and injured Autobot's at his feet. He speaks "After four million earth years I have accomplished my mission-- The Autobots are no more!" END]
(dont he look great in printed purples. mwah)

Disney's The Gremlins Over the Years
Chapter 1: Gremlins (Part 2)
This is Part 2 to Chapter 1. If you want to read Part 1 first, it's in the link below.
Due to the recent events with Epic Mickey Rebrushed, I thought of making a series of posts dedicated to Disney's infamous characters from the canceled WWII movie The Gremlins. The character designs of these guys have changed many times during the concept art process and over the years. Today, this is a collection of male Gremlin designs. The female Gremlins were called the Fifinellas, which I will get to them in the next post. For those discovering this, in summary, Disney was making WWII movies and shorts for the war effort. They were going to adapt Roald Dahl's first book about these guys, and several things like people getting tired of war movies and figuring out how to make the movie, which was canceled. I'm making these posts for fun and to help give artists ideas for their OCs and fanart. I would post some sample pictures and a minor breakdown in each post. I might miss some because there is so much, so this is just a handful of pictures and photos I collected over the years. We really need to make a Disney Gremlin's Wiki.
Anyways, let's jump into THE FUTURE!
Canceled Live Action/Animated Project (1992): Jumping forward into the future, Jerry Rees, director of The Brave Little Toaster, and Steve Leiva were trying to make a feature based on the original story with live action with animated gremlins like Who Framed Roger Rabbit. The illustrators for the project were Steve Moore and Frans Vischer. Again, GLAD they didn't we didn't get this style of the characters since they're far from the original designs. Here are two samples by Steve Moore.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Return of the Gremlins (2008): When Disney made those terrible DVD sequels, Dark Horse and Disney made a deal to reprint the original book, make merchandise, and release a three-part comic sequel in 2008. The first cartoonist was Dean Yeagle, but he could not finish, so DreamWorks artist Fabio Laguna came in to do the final issue. In this story, Old Pilot Gus's grandson, Young Gus, goes to Old Gus's home in Brittan to handle the property sale. But SURPRISE! It's inhabited by the Gremlins that Old Gus befriended during WWII. Chaos ensues...
Tumblr media
Epic Mickey (2010): Now, the moment you've all been waiting for, the game that introduced most of us to Disney’s Gremlins. Here are the variants we remember split into two groups: 3D Gameplay and 2D Cutscenes. Going forward, some of these pictures are from the Epic Mickey Wiki.
3D Gameplay
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
2D Cutscenes
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Epic Mickey Comic (2010): In the 64 page-long graphic novel, the only Gremlin character who appeared in the comic was Gremlin Gus.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Epic Mickey (2012): In the sequel, we get more variants of the Gremlins and a Gremlin Prescott redesign.
3D Gameplay
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
2D Cutscenes
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Epic Mickey Comic (2012): Gremlin Gus was joined by Gremlin Prescott and Gremlin Jamface.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Donald Duck #18 Comic (2015 IDW): This is the crossover we have wanted since the Comic Cover. In a translated European Swedish comic of 'Rue Brittania!', Donald and Fethry get a new assignment: travel back in time to WWII and face the Gremlins to de-gremlin the airfield. Artists: Pencils and Ink by Flemming Andersen and Colors by Digikore Studios.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
There's a lot more I could add, but we would be here all day. If this post gets popular enough, I will do more on the side before the game comes out. If there are changes to the Gremlins in the Reboot, I'll make a Part 3. Hope this post is a helpful source for old and new Gremlin and Epic Mickey fans alike!

Wunderwaffen
Tumblr media
Çizgiroman okumayı ve çizgiroman dükkanlarını gezmeyi çok severim. Yine bu gezmelerden birisinde raflarda WUNDERWAFFEN adlı dergi boyu bir çizgiromana rastladım. Alfa Yayınları tarafından Türkçeye çevrilmiş ve basılmıştı. Eski nesil uçakları sevdiğim için sayfalarındaki görseller ilgimi çekmişti. Çizgiromanın çizilme tarihi 2011. Bu nedenle dehşet bir taraviri kolleksiyonuna sahip dostumdan yardım istedim ve elindeki taraviri malzemeyi edindim. Kolleksiyonun biraz eksikleri olmasına rağmen seri hakkında fikir edinmemi sağlamıştı.
Tumblr media
Serinin yazarı Richard D. Nolane. 1955 doğumlu Fransız yazar-çizer.
Dergi Fransız Soleil Yayıncılığın çalışması. Bu ekip “ikinci dünya savaşı bu şekilde bitmeseydi bugün neler yaşardık” senaryosunun pek çok versiyonuna çalışmış. Ekipte ana çizim MAZA’ya ait. Ancak ilginç bir şekilde Sırp kökenli çizerlerin desteği yoğun. Jovan Ukropina, Zeljko Vladetic, Desimir Miljic, Desko, Marko Nikolic.
Tumblr media
Digikore Studios çizimleri renklendirmiş. Bu stüdyo grafik renklendirme, VFX üzerine grafik animasyon stüdyosu. Çizgi roman, bilgisayar oyunları ve film görsel efektleri üzerine çalışıyor. VFX üzerine çalışan ekibin hemen hepsi Hintli. Jumanji, Stranger Things, Transformars, Titanic 3D, Vortex, Expandables, Ninja Turtles, Need for Speed, Hayalet Sürücü, Deadpool gibi pek çok sinema filminde çalışmış. Holivut’un vazgeçilmez firmalarından. ( https://digikorevfx.com/ )
Wunderwaffen’de Ana çizer olarak MAZA adı geçiyor ve bazı çizgiroman sitelerinde 1924 doğumlu Kübalı sanatçı Heriberto Maza olduğu yazılıyor. Soleil Yayıncılığın sayfasında MAZA nın kim olduğu konusu muallakta bırakılmış. Azıcık karıştırınca bu çizerin 1965 Bosna-Hersek doğumlu MAZA olduğu ortaya çıkıyor. Yine de asıl adını bulamadım.
Tumblr media
https://mazastrip.blogspot.com/
Wunderwaffen birkaç alt seri ile birlikte yayınlanmış.
Wunderwaffen 25  sayılık, 21. Sayı Mayıs 2023’te yayınlanmış – İlk sayısı 2012 de yayınlanmış.
Wunderwaffen -Mission Secrets -3 sayı  (2019-2021-2022)
Wunderwaffen – Spaca Reich – 5 sayı – 2015 -2017-2018- 2019- 2022 ye aralıklı yayın
Wunderwaffen – Zeppelin’s War -  4 sayı -2014-2016 – 2018- 2021
Tumblr media
Serinin yaratıcısı Nolane ve Maza’nın dünyasında  takvim 1946 yılında durmuş. Normandiya çıkarması başarısızlığa uğramış. Savaş havada sürüyor. Almanların güç uğruna savaş teknolojisinde başlattığı yarışa Amerikalılar, ucundan Fransızlar ve bozguncu olarak İngilizler katılıyor.
Tumblr media
Maza’nın havacılık terminolojisi, uçaklar, uçuş tarihi, uçuş teknolojileri konusunda oldukça kapsamlı bir bilgisi var. Uçak modellerini çok iyi yansıtmış. Savaş sahneleri göz alıcı.    
Ağırlıklı olarak savaş sanayinde ortaya çıkan fantastik denemeleri, devamlılığı olmayan veya üstü örtülmüş çalışmaları göz önüne çıkartan bir öyküleme. Wunderwaffen tarihi değiştirebilecek konseptlere ve uçak tasarımlarını inceleyen, havacılık temalı bir dizi olarak tasarlanmış.
What if
Eğer böyle olmasaydı, zamanın akışı nasıl olurdu çeşitlemesinin Nazi Almanyası ve Hitler karakteri üzerindeki örneklerinden birisi. Nazi Almanyasının bütün karakterleri (Gobbels, Goering, Hesse vd) her macerada boy gösteriyor. Askeri olarak Alman ordusu, araçlar, rütbeler, olay kurgusu çok iyi çalışılmış. Sonra da gerçek zaman akışı Normandiya çıkartmasında kırılarak “eğer ollmasaydı ne olurdu” senaryosu yazılmış.
Tumblr media
Bu seri ile ilgili pek çok eleştiri var. Nazi propagandası yaptıkları iddia ediliyor. Seriyi oluşturan ekibin ağırlıklı Sırp kökenli olması şüpheleri arttırıyor. Nazi Almanyasının görkemi, kudreti, gücü resimlerde yansıtılıyor.
Ancak komplo teorilerini kıran bir durum söz konusu. O da bütün görsel Nazi ihtişamına karşın, öykü senaryosu, anlatılanlar, kahramanların konuşmaları bu etkiyi köreltiyor ve başka tarafa akıtıyor. Ciddi bir sistem eleştirisi var, Hitler saplantılı bir ruh hastası olarak kimlikleniyor, Hitler, Himmler’in kuklası halinde, etrafındaki herkes güç sarhoşu ve kişisel çıkarlar peşinde. Diğer taraftan Amerikan, İngiliz ve Fransız başkanları ve diğer siyasetçilerin kirliliği, çıkarcılığı, sahtekarlığı, kumpasları epeyce ortaya dökülmüş. Churchill’in entrikaları, Amerikan Başkanı Lindberg’in Hitler özentisi güç yönetimi epeyce kurcalanmış. Bir tek De Goulle hakkında yandan çarklı yaklaşımlar var.  Malum dergi Fransız kökenli. O kadar da olsun.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Seride Nazi Almanyasının askeri teknolojide yaptığı gizli çalışmalar senaryonun taşıyıcı parçası olmuş.
Ben okuduğum kadarıyla ilginç buldum. Hatta bazı tarihi olaylar hakkında hatırlatmalar iyi oldu. 
Teknolojinin NİYE insanları yok ederken bu kadar ilerleyebildiğini yeniden fark ederek hafifçe ürperdim.
İyi ürpermeler.

Exploring VP Sets in Depth to Unlock the Future of Virtual Production with Real-Time Rendering Assets
Tumblr media
The nexus between creativity and technology has never been more fascinating in the rapidly changing realm of digital media. The emergence of virtual production is changing the way content is made by giving producers and filmmakers previously unheard-of levels of freedom and control.
Real-time rendering assets are at the center of this change, and Digikore Studios’ VP Sets is at the forefront of procuring these materials. Let’s examine how VP Sets is changing the virtual production scene and go into the realm of real-time rendering assets.
The Power of Real-Time Rendering Assets
The unsung heroes responsible for today’s digital content’s breathtaking graphics are real-time rendering assets. Real-time rendering enables immediate feedback and interactivity, in contrast to traditional rendering techniques that might take hours or even days to generate a single frame. A more dynamic and iterative creative process results from the ability for creators to observe their changes and make modifications instantly.
Digital elements including 3D models, environments, textures, and lighting configurations that are tailored for usage in real-time applications are essentially known as real-time rendering assets. Because these assets are made to render immediately, they are perfect for interactive media such as virtual reality (VR), video games, and virtual production.
Real-time visualization and modification of these components provides an unmatched degree of efficiency and creativity.
Enter VP Sets: Revolutionizing Virtual Production
At the front of this change is Digikore Studios’ revolutionary marketplace, VP Sets. Imagine being able to quickly access a vast collection of excellent, real-time rendering elements. That is precisely what VP Sets provides: a one-stop shop for all of your virtual production requirements.
A Treasure Trove of Assets
From elaborate props and customisable textures to realistic character models and sophisticated 3D settings, VP Sets has an extensive and varied selection of assets. VP Sets has the resources to realize your vision, whether you’re working on a historical drama, a sci-fi epic, or a future cartoon.
Experts at Digikore Studios painstakingly create every asset in the VP Sets marketplace to guarantee that it satisfies the highest requirements for performance and quality. Beautiful images and smooth integration into your projects are the results of this attention to detail. VP Sets provides resources that meet a variety of artistic requirements, ranging from stylized, fantastical settings to photorealistic surroundings.
Seamless Integration and Flexibility
VP Sets’ emphasis on smooth integration is one of its best qualities. The components are made to work with popular gaming engines and virtual production platforms, such as Unity and Unreal Engine. This implies that without having to deal with significant changes, developers may simply import and use the assets in the ecosystem of their choice. Additionally, the assets that VP Sets provides are quite customisable. To suit their unique needs, creators can alter models, change lighting, and alter textures. Because of their degree of adaptability, the assets may be used in a variety of creative contexts, making them an invaluable addition to any virtual production toolset.

were back to our (ir)regularly scheduled bullshit!
Tumblr media
[ID: Splash page with the issue title and creative credits. Megatron is bound up in cables, some plugged into him, effecting repairs. He speaks: Remind me to thank you when i get down from here, Shockwave. Meanwhile, resumption of my command must begin now. Shockwave: You don't seem to understand. These autobots you see lying dead on the ground are there because I put them there. The Decepticons you see barely clinging to life are in that operating mode because of you. Until I intervened, Autobot victory over us was assured.* The evidence says your leadership was faulty, Megatron. Logic says I must assume command of the Decepticons. Editor's Note: *as seen in issue 8 END]
back to the USmarvel, The New Order, issue no. 5! (22-23 UK reckoning) from feb 1985!
Script: Bob Budiansky Art: Alan Kupperberg Letters: Rick Parker Colour: Nel Yomtov Editor: Jim Owsley EiC: James Shooter Digital Re-master by Digikore Studios Limited. Collection Edits by Justin Eisinger and Alonzo Simon. Editorial notes and assistance by Mark. W. Bellomo
now... welcome back digital re-master. just in time for me to rip you a new on... bare with my folks...
so this issue opens with new king bitch in town, shockwave, conducting research into humans via television. so uh.., they put honeymooners in my transformers comic?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
[ID: Both images of a Full page B&W illustration, two men stand behind a table, one asking "Whatsa matter Ralphie-boy?" Ralph, staring wide eyed, dead ahead, grips a chair saying "Homina-Homina-Homina!" A woman looks in through a window, with a scowl. 1. The illustration uses blocked inks, and half-tones for the characters, but the background and objects have mid and dark halftones added in an almost painterly fashion. 2. The art now with most of the tones and shading removed, everything left either black, midtone, or stark white. END]
surely. one of these images is higher definition. but which one looks BETTER? now its possible this is actually about which master copies they were working from. perhaps a rights issues? (the uk printing replaces this page with a different image) but i note here ALSO. they removed the artist, Kupperberg's, signature form the bottom left corner. a hateful affair all told.
though, this doesnt just piss me off to see an artist works edited, and made to SUCK! (tho boy does it...) my friends... comrades, fellow bloggers. lend me your eyes. DO they see this the way mine do? cause ill eat my fucking hat if that's not DUOSHADE paper. the infamous medium of many a B&W indie. not familiar? check out my previous blogging on the friendly neighbourhood martial reptiles. but i digress.
if this. this INSULT to my very being wasnt enough. they also recoloured shockwave from a perhaps accidentally stunning shade of magenta to a cool lavender... which i personally just found quite boring. well. most of the time
Tumblr media Tumblr media
[ID: 1. UK printing, Shockwave seated on throne like seat, coloured very warm toned purple. He listen to a sports broadcast and says "These humans are even more primitive than I thought." 2. Digital remaster, Shockwave's profile visible, coloured red, as he watches a news reporter. END]
the very first image of this post has another, red shockwave, btw. I suppose, they could be printing or colouring errors, but they could also be lighting/compositional choices by Yomtov (its not uncommon for his foreground characters to be done in monotone, particularly, purple) either way they corrected for it. and to me, this instance just comes of that whatever work flow being used, doesnt even flag the second figure AS shockwave, so a redwave remains...
i stress. i never blame any individual who does this work. its to them, just a job, and why should it not be? my ire is with IDW, and why they enact these "restorations" anyway, and why the fuck people ought to pay new money for old art that has been given so little respect...
anyway reading the print version meant a lot of tabbing between the us and uk printings. which is why i noticed this
Tumblr media Tumblr media
[ID: The crediting for the colourist, Nel Yomtov. In the US printing the say "Colors" and in the UK "Colour", the S removed, and a U added. END]
im just amused by the effort taken... surely the kids dont care that much? and yes apparently they do this every time.
JEEZE CREESY WHO CARES. LETS SEE SOME ROBOTS
Tumblr media
[ID: Shockwave watching the news, off panel dialogue Reporter: Ms. Beller, you have been called a computer genius even though you're only a few years out of high school. What is your role in this? Beller: It's true I designed the secondary and tertiary oil recovery systems Reveal of Beller, a very young looking woman in a jacket and a hard hat. She continues: --the semi-automated defense system, the refinery's non-polluting digitized micro-scrubbers. But I consider it all just a part of my job. END]
shockwave learns the alarming news that a new female character is being introduced!
Tumblr media
[ID: 2 page spread, the bodies of almost every single introduced Autobot are hanging from the ceiling, damaged and "bloodied". Shockwave scrolls under them, saying "Indeed" END]
also. check this shit out
anyway WHATS going on between shockwave and megs?
Tumblr media
[ID: Shockwave pointing to the still bound Megatron: You will explain now how you permitted our position to deteriorate so drastically, Megatron. Megatron, mostly off panel: As… Commander… it is your right to demand anything of me. It is my privilege to oblige. END]
OH. its like that huh?
Tumblr media
[ID: Shockwave offpanel "--Should logic so dictate." A close on Megatron, he thinks "Talk, Shockwave..." A close on his repairing hand twitching "...talk while you still can!" END]
well maybe not for long...
anyway... turns out the WAS a reason we saw ratchet helping those EMT's
Tumblr media
[ID: Ratchet driving into the hospital parking lot. Buster calls out "Ratchet!!" who responds "Greetings, Buster Witwicky how nice to see your carbon-based face again!" Buster asks "Ratchet, where've you been?" END]
I hope your all ready to become extremely endeared by ratchet, or else just put up with it. cause...
Tumblr media
[ID: Buster and Ratchet, still in alt mode, continue to speak, while EMTs are searching for the source of this mysterious voice. Buster: If they attacked the Autobots they should all be broken-down junk-heaps by now! Ratchet: Wonderful! I knew your father was a human we could trust EMT 1: I'll look behind the grill, Mel! EMT 2: I'll check under the seat cushion, Gus! Four people react in shock as Ratchet shouts: Do you organic creatures mind? I don't go poking around your mouths to see how you talk, do I? END
my beloved....

[ID: Ratchet on the road, stopped at a red light, as Buster rides inside. Ratchet: Listen, friend traffic signal, we're in a hurry, so if you could please turn green… Buster: It doesn't hear you, Ratchet, it's only a machine. Ratchet: I'm a machine, and I hear you, Buster! Buster: Yes, but you're different, you're-- Inside view as the light turns green. Ratchet: Ahh, he changed! Thank you, friend traffic signal. May the rest of the day find you in proper working order. You see, Buster, you have to learn how to talk to people. Buster: I… I'll try to keep that in mind, Ratchet. END]
this is so charming can we get corey burton and uh. well rest in peace don messick.., so just corey burton twice will do, to record his.

Tumblr media
[ID: Shockwave points to Megatron: As always, you underestimate Optimus Prime, Megatron. No, he will not be cut up into wires and microchips. His value is far greater to us if we keep him functional, for it is logical to assume that an Autobot of his stature contains within him--The Creation Matrix! Megatron thinking: By the divine weld! The Creation Matrix is the computer program that allows its possessor to construct new transformer life! Its power is the stuff of legends! Shockwave continues: It is said once every ten millenia a new Autobot leader is chosen and encoded with The Matrix. END]
MATRIX MENTION? everyone have their lore bibles out? someone WRITE THAT DOWN.
Tumblr media
[ID: Buster stumbling through the Ark in shock, "N-no… it can't be true! There must be some explanation! There must be! Wait a second… I didn't see Optimus in there…there's still optimus… there has to be--" He walks into a room with Optimus Prime's severed head, plugged into grand machinery. Buster yells "--Optimus!" Prime, weakly: Buster Witwicky… You must help me… you are… the Autobots… last hope…" End card-- Next: Oil Rig Assault! END]
OH MY GOD!

From Blockbusters to Social Media Stars: Inside India's Explosive VFX and Animation Industry
Tumblr media
From Blockbusters to Social Media Stars: Inside India's Explosive VFX and Animation Industry From Blockbusters to Social Media Stars: Inside India's Explosive VFX and Animation Industry The visual effects (VFX) and animation industry is at an all-time high in India, with numerous blockbusters and social media hits featuring high-quality graphics and special effects. From international studios to homegrown talent, the country's VFX and animation industry has come a long way in the past few decades. The Early Days of Indian Animation and VFX The origins of Indian animation can be traced back to the early 20th century when stop-motion animation was first introduced in the country. The first full-length animated feature film 'The Banyan Deer' was made in 1957 by legendary animator and filmmaker, Clair Weeks, in association with Indian animator Bhimsain Khurana. It was not until the 1980s that the Indian animation industry began developing seriously. Until recently, Indian cinema mainly relied on the Hollywood VFX industry for its visual effects requirements, which was both costly and time-consuming. It was then that the rise of homegrown talent and studios began. Several Indian companies began developing their VFX expertise, creating their production pipeline. The Rise of Indian Studios One of the most prominent Indian VFX studios is Tata Elxsi, founded in 1989. It is known for creating stunning special effects for several blockbuster movies like 'Baahubali,' 'Robot,' 'Endhiran,' and 'Ra-One.' Prime Focus World, founded in 1997, has worked on some of the biggest blockbusters of Hollywood, including 'The Dark Knight Rises' and 'Avatar.' Another emerging South Indian VFX studio, Digikore, which started operations only in 2013, have had a significant impact on the industry. With the motto of "Change the Game," it has already worked with several renowned studios like Viacom18, Disney, and leading regional studios to deliver high-quality animation and VFX. The Importance of VFX and Animation in Indian Filmmaking With the Indian film industry now well versed in utilizing VFX, there is a high demand for talented VFX artists who specialize in their craft. They play a crucial role in bringing the director's vision to life on the silver screen. Not only this, but several Indian TV series and shows now depend heavily on VFX and animation. The VFX industry's growth is not restricted to the big screen anymore, and the digital space is also seeing tremendous growth. Social Media and Its Influence The rise of social media has impacted the way the VFX industry functions in India. Several short films, viral ads, and web series solely rely on high-quality VFX graphics and animation. The youth of India has a growing affinity towards digital content, and animators are using various social media platforms to display their talents. With the global rise of interest in digital content, the Indian VFX and animation industry is also benefiting. The Road Ahead The Indian VFX and animation industry's future looks promising, with the increasing demand for high-quality graphics in films and TV series. The industry's impact is not just restricted to India, and it is now a global phenomenon, with more and more international studios setting up shop in India. It's offering new job opportunities and changing the face of entertainment in India and globally. Conclusion With the Indian VFX and animation industry now going full steam ahead, the future is looking bright and promising. The rise of homegrown talent and studios, coupled with social media's impact, has brought the Indian entertainment industry to new heights. With increasingly high demand for quality graphics in films, TV series, and social media, the industry will continue to thrive, with VFX artists and animators contributing to its growth substantially. #BUSINESS Read the full article
