Thought I would let you know that the full film "Starship Troopers Smoothnecks" is now online and can be downloaded from www.superteam.biz I must say a big thankyou to all the people that allowed me to use their models and although it was made with only 87 and I'm not a CGI expert and I can only use Bryce and Poser, I hope you like what I have done with your models. Our next film is Dungeons and Dragons ( based on the cartoon ) and if anyone would like to help that would be great. Once again Many thanks Ian Paterson

:-D Well, it may only be 87 pounds, but it's all up there on the screen. Funnier than Starship Troopers!! Especially the little guy with the glasses. I'll be looking out for you at next years BAFTA's. Filmed on location? Looks like Sussex. Where did you film it, so I can make a pilgrimage there.

Thanks, :)
We film near heathrow ( hounslow )
If you liked "Smoothnecks" have a look at our Call it a stargate series, once again the fx's are only poser and bryce but they have the same fun bits in there :)
we are always looking for actors.... ( hint, hint )

Let me know if you need any special models designed and I will see what I can whip up...

Wow, thanks for the response :) very kind. If your sure you don't mind ;) If you would like to look through the script for D&D link attached. At the moment I have no models for the film, in the script there is thing's like a galleon ship, monolith etc. I have brought daz hydra for poser. The finished film will be the first in the world ( amatuer ) to be turned into a cartoon in post production, i'm kinda hoping that's worth a few pages in someone's book :-/ Once again thanks :) Ian

I never thought I'd last the full 26 minutes but I did! Great job. You've inspired me to make a cheesy sci-fi movie with a bunch of hokey movie allusions. Of course, Bryce, Poser, and C4D will have a part in developing "top-notch" special effects. Would you please tell me/us the process you used to produce the film? I.e. filming, location, preproduction, post, etc. Either post, PM, or email (andy@bettermagic.com). Keep it up!

Hi :) glad you liked it :) I shot on a cheap mini dv 350 panasonic camera 1ccd. I normaly edited on studio 7 ( 50 editing sofware that comes with a capture card ) The last 2 films i've made i then take the finished avi, and add the sound fx's in vegas 4 ( where i make the 5.1 Dolby Digital soundtrack ) I live near heathrow so the planes fly over every 30 secounds so the script has to be 20 secounds before i have to cut. I got poser 3 on a magazine over a year ago and tried other 3D software but just couldn't get my head round it, so I only use poser and bryce :( After effects is where i apply the 3D with live action, and after effects is what i'm using to make the 3D version ( with extra footage ) of smoothnecks, we suplly glasses if people buy the dvd. If there is anything you want to know just ask. my icq no. 213695845 and msn is b4uaskiamcindy@hotmail.com ( wifes pc :)
