I guess Inge did the BGs for the scenes with the Thief climbing up the mountain and I must have merged the memories. I like how mistakes on the blog sooner or later get fixed.

Roy Naisbitt, who was everybody's mentor in regards to layout, liked a pan to have calibrations that were never completely evenly spaced. He preferred to have either a very subtle increase or decrease in speed. In this scene the hands are spaced in relation to the pan calibrations and this might have made it impossible to use a repeat pan. Dick also would not have liked a repeat on principle. In this film he went out of his way to avoid any kind of cycle. <br />In this scene the camera also seems to zoom in and out again. That was actually done with the BG and the animation, not by any change in field size. If you doubleclick on the photo with the painting on the floor (to get the bigger image) you might be able to see that the hands increase in size in the middle of the BG. The hands also animate, so the BG only looks repetitive but it's really constantly changing.Holgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12137526076144900623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949761452379246017.post-4763650584001584932010-01-24T19:09:04.783-08:002010-01-24T19:09:04.783-08:00Hi Holger.

These scenes fascinate me and are major highlights of the movie IMO.<br /><br />At the risk of sounding lazy: why couldn't this have been (at least in part) some sort of repeat pan? <br /><br />(and yes, it does sound lazy, even to me...!)Will Finnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01297122976077620877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949761452379246017.post-18037939061352596102010-01-16T16:34:20.150-08:002010-01-16T16:34:20.150-08:00Aaron, I did both - displacing the hands slightly ...Aaron, I did both - displacing the hands slightly up, down, right and left in an irregular pattern.Holgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12137526076144900623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949761452379246017.post-49449100121433953542010-01-16T09:33:52.672-08:002010-01-16T09:33:52.672-08:00Great post!

Did you create the stagger in the hands by varying the height of the hands or did you play with the spacing across the pan?aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08048757774708486224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949761452379246017.post-80923461894247093062010-01-12T11:54:52.519-08:002010-01-12T11:54:52.519-08:00Fascinating stuff.
