GRAVITY - MAKING OF

Sunday, 23 March 2014


I watched Gravity this week and although I'm still debating my thoughts on the plot of the film, the visual effects were pretty amazing. I love knowing the way films are made so I quickly set about investigating how they created one of the most crucial aspects of the film - the zero gravity effect. I found this video on YouTube and couldn't wait to share it. It's incredible how they created a rig that could produce such a fluid movement and create something that looked so realistic. This is one of those films I could spend hours researching how they created all the various aspects on what they film it on.
If you haven't already seen it I'd recommend giving it a watch, and if you have - what did you think?

52 FILMS

Sunday, 16 March 2014

At the start of the year I set about watching 52 films I'd never finished watching or ever watched before. I currently have 50 films on the list and have only managed to watch 12 of them. There are a mix of classics and more recent films on the list so here are the 50 (in no particular order) that are currently on my list :



Those highlighted are the ones that I have managed to watch. I need two more to finish my life of 52 films so, if you have any suggestions of any films at all please send them over! Or if there are films you think I should replace with others already on the list, again let me know.
There will be some posts coming up in the near future with updates on my thoughts on some of the films and updates on my progress of tackling this list!
