Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Theo Robertson With a tittle like this I was expecting something along the lines of a documentary as to how everything in existence came in to being and it is indeed all about the big bang and its after effects . However I was surprised as to the concept and its execution because the story is told via stop frame animation . My own knowledge of this process is that you draw a picture , photograph it , draw another picture , photograph it etc etc then project the myriad of photographs and voilà . Special effects wizard Ray Harryhausen used the exact same technique with models and in an era where nearly everything is achieved nowadays via CGI you really do lament this labour of love .. That said you can understand why CGI replaced stop frame because it's relatively quick and cheap to achieve Knowing this BIG BANG BIG BOOM is a herculean effort from animator Blu as he condenses billions of years of evolution in to ten minutes . Yes chaps evolution is proved scientific fact and if there's a problem I fail to understand why there's real life cars and human beings juxtaposed in front of the animated dinosaurs because it's highly anachronistic and distracting not to mention somewhat pointless . Still this is a fairly good animated film showing that a great number of artists are prepared to do something for love and not for love of money
MartinHafer This is a practically impossible film to describe, but I'll try to do so briefly. How it was done could have been through painting or perhaps CGI- -I cannot tell. But the film consists of large painted objects and animals coming off a wall and moving about the environment. There is a theme of dinosaurs but so many other themes and shapes are involved that the title is almost irrelevant. "Big Bang, Big Boom" is a thoroughly original short film that will make you wonder how the heck they were able to do this. It's the sort of thing you just need to see for yourself, as my description really doesn't do the film justice. A truly exciting film to watch and a making of short would also be greatly appreciated! A must- see film for anyone who likes art films and shorts.
bob the moo The story of the big bang starting life which leads to different creatures at different times ultimately leading to the creation of man; except the whole story is played out using stop-motion animation which is drawn onto sidewalks, buildings, beaches, pipes and basically flows all across a city.The second half of that paragraph is the important one because although the film does have an overall narrative and point, the thing that makes it so watchable is the manner in which it is delivered. Stop-motion animation in itself always impresses me due to the work involved and the ability to plan ahead and "see" your film one step at a time – to do it with models in the controlled environment of a studio with fixed cameras is enough to impress me. So to see it played out across a living city, flowing onto roofs and back down to street level is just awe-inspiring.The creatures we see developing from one to another are very impressive in their design and their scale – at times we have creatures animated across the side of a two-storey house. The patience and imagination to do this is something but the work involved is also hard to understand since I can only imagine it involved constantly removing previous drawings and then adding the next – which on a small scale is quite something but when you see the scale of this it is hard to really appreciate how much it must have taken. There is a downside to film in that the slight shift in camera position can give it quite a jerky effect rather than a smooth flow but this is a very minor quibble because otherwise this short is just a marvel of effort and imagination coming together to make an amazingly impressive piece of animation.
Chris Knipp This is a 10min film by Blu, from Italy, with striking avant-garde music and sound by Andrea Martignoni. This film is really fresh. Howver well its point comes across about "evolution and its possible consequences," Blu dazzled with the ambition of a project in which stop motion is used to bring animation through a form of graffiti and street chalk art and painting onto walls and silos and parking lots moving out over a whole vast urban landscape. The invasion of animation drawing into real space is a terrific effect. Reptiles and prehistoric critters morph and move over walls. Plastic trash on the beach also comes to life and rolls up into a big ball. Human figures pop in and out, threatened by drawings. Art and life coexist in literal terms. Blu makes the world his canvas. Nothing parochial or inbred here. You have to see the film in action to grasp its real effect. Stills don't do it. This energetic and original film won the 2011 Annency Special Jury Award.
