Judge Minty (Judge Dredd fan film)

[SuperSurfer]

Congratulations on the work so far. Looks outstanding. Very exciting.

I'm sure this has been discussed a thousand times on this board, but looking at those pics makes me wonder why Judges still appear in a blue costume in print? Or is the question: why do they appear in black in film? Should we just accept Judges as the boys and girls in (dark) blue. I know this has been a weird comic colouring convention for years (eg the Blue Black Panther) but seems no reason for it now.

[Steve Green]

It's just a convention, like Superman's hair have blue tints in it.

If you look at Ezquerra or Bolland colour Dredds they both keep it black, no blue at all.

Cheers,

Steve

Guys this looks amazing!!!!!

What are you doing about casting, I'd love to play a big gun toting Mutie!!!

[Dandontdare]

Hell yeah! If you need a bunch of extras to play cits, perps, muties, simps, dweebs, mooks, dunks, taps and pongos, then I'm sure everyone on this board would gladly step up!

Funny, I was thinking along the same lines while looking around the Bar at HiEx!

[Steven Sterlacchini]

Oh yes, we will need people for mutants and for the kovaks mob.

When we've got some firmer dates I'll put out a request for help.

We did discuss bringing the portable green screen down to Bristol for background characters on pedways etc. and then shoot some people against it.

The main thing is having the look like citizens rather than just comic fans in t-shirts

Not pinstripe is it?

GAY!

Thing is, I'm not sure you'd ever really get to see below the knees...

I need to have a chat with Steve and Dan about what the best approach is for Bristol - the portable screen is OK for the waist up, but it's a bit of a pain if you want to get the feet in.

Also if you want anyone walking, then you need a couple of people to carry the screen behind the person.

Got a couple of ideas though.

You could rotoscope everyone and be able utilise natural lighting etc. Caution: only use if you have the patience of a saint.

[Steve Green]

Yep, I could. But I'm not gonna. It would take too much time to justify - there will no doubt be some manualy rotoscoping for some hero shots, but I'm going to avoid it if I can.

I really want to get as many people as I can, shot separately with about a minute of each - you can get pretty good results from outdoor lighting, it's more a case of a big enough coloured background...

If only they were holding it at IKEA...

[I, Cosh]

Fabulous looking stuff there guys and count me in if you need any wild Cal Habbers living in a hole.


Keep It Minty!!
