Special Effects Transform TV Classic The release of the TV classic, Transformers, brings together the show's original fans and a new generation of movie lovers. It smashed box office records and was one of the most popular movies of the summer. Based on a retro toy concept spawned from both a comic book and animated series, the Transformers are alien robots that disguise themselves as vehicles on earth. No child of the 90s can forget the catchphrase 'Transformers, Robots in Disguise!' The movie itself shows how special effects have dramatically improved in the past decade and few of us are ever going to forget what it was like to see a canary yellow 1971 Chevy Camero transform into a full size robot and do battle with the new Ford Mustang - life just doesn't get any better than that! Through the use of CGI graphics, Director Michael Bay and Steven Spielberg have truly brought the Transformers to life. But what fans of the film want to know is how all the incredible special effects were put together. In this video, Scott Farrar the visual effects supervisor on the movie explains how he and his team of over 300 people have managed to turn this cartoon classic into a movie blockbuster. How do you make a robot show emotion? Who can forget the epic Bonecrusher action sequence? These and many more are described in minute detail. Dolly shots, special computer technology - he explains it all. For more information visit www.transformersmovie.com Release date of the DVD: 3rd Decemberwatch the Transformers clip here. Transformers
