About a year ago I saw Casino Royale with some friends- I was completely blown away by the amazing motion graphics in the opening credits- but somehow with time I forgot about the credits and only memories of the movie were left in my head. Luckily I really liked the movie because for the longest time I had meant to watch it again and then this weekend's snowstorm gave me the perfect chance. The second I popped the DVD into the player I remembered those opening credits and watching them again after spending two months learning all about how to create motion graphics I am even more impressed by what was done. After sitting around and chatting to my friends, who honestly didn't really care, about how cool the graphics were and how- well, I can almost, sort of, kind of, am learning to, maybe one day will have the ability to, create all that stuff. They told me if I ever get to the point where I am working on a James Bond movie that would be cool. At least now I know what it takes to impress my friends.
Seriously though- they way the graphics flow and the way the animation and video are seamlessly integrated- incredible. I also love all the playing card imagery. It is so cool when the bad guys explode in diamonds.
Watch, enjoy and be in awe.
