You Are A Elf posted:My favorite part of the Mummy Returns is Imhotep running in from offscreen and dropping on one knee dramatically screaming "NOOOOOOOO!!!" in the hammiest, most over-the-top performance imaginable when the Scorpion King is stabbed. You can actually see the still of it in the preview pic of the second clip. I'd seen this before but I never noticed the Scorpion King slowly looking at Imhotep at the end and Im dying.

As soon as I pressed play, my cats ran out of the room, freaked the gently caress out.  AQUA has a ton of terrible CGI videos but this one is the worst imo. Bonus horrible dollar store wigs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jc7r_B0ZWDY Also, this loving game. Couldn't find playthrough without nerd guy but nonetheless you can see why it sucks rear end. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VmtAjrHwFek

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUbOqPpzo7Q Well, it's a 2002 video, but it carries the spirit of crap pre 1999 CGI. Plus its so dorky you can't help but love it. This song and video is my spirit animal. it gives me strength each day.

Nice to the see The Utah Teapot make an appearance in this thread. They managed to sneak one into Toy Story, which naturally caused me to nerdgasm.

I'm trying to recall another early CGI thing that might have had been a music video, but one shot was of some sort of crude cylinder robot thing playing giant drums. Not to mention the huge batch of 90's music videos from 1995 onwards that had some sort of clunked in CG background, such as Michael Jackson's Scream and assorted boy bands of the time. Billie Piper's Honey to the B comes to mind as stuff that was really bad, even at the time. This was released in 1999. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtT4MWzohRY

Yello - Bostich (WestBam Remix) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2Q13fxQSy8 To me this is the quintessential 90s CGI clip for a faceless producer, no one cared how WestBam looked, so they ran with this thing instead. I'm not even sure if it was cheaper than the other option of "beatmatched unrelated archive footage" that was also very populair during this time.

Bingo.

He's gone on to win an oscar for a short film called Ryan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbkBjZKBLHQ Edit: forgot one of his videos.. Autechresaint has a new favorite as of 06:07 on Jun 25, 2015 |

https://youtu.be/T5seU-5U0ms Believed to be the first ever 3D computer animation. If you look real closely at the end, the digital guy sheds a tear*. 'What am I? Why has someone made me this way?' * it's actually a clipped polygon.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-Faf8zPRno Walking With Dinosaurs has aged loving fantastically in some scenes, like the herd of Diplodocus with the heat haze around them. Other scenes, like the mating ritual or the playdough mouthed Stegosaurus not so much.

Lol, that reminds of the time during the late 90s when they invented motion capture, and suddenly it had to be in everything. Men in Black theme This was actually pretty impressive for 1997, but then I supppse it was made off the back of the movies' SFX.

When I played this when it was new, when I was 17, I was BLOWN AWAY by how cooool and reaaaaal it looked. Same with Soul Reaver. People under 35 don't really get that it was state of the art back then.

A GLISTENING HODOR posted:Holy crap, I haven't seen Air Force One since it was in a dollar theater in 97. Yeah, it's pretty bad. I always thought that the dogfight held up pretty well though, mostly because it takes place at night and uses actual, physical explosions instead of trying to model a plane breaking apart.

I was in high school when the first Raimi Spider-Man came out and I thought the CGI was poo poo back then. The 90s didn't end until 2005.

The whole Simpsons 3d thing, drat. To think it was mindblowing at the time. It doesn't even make much sense now as the plot is clearly only there to force scenes with special effects.

I've read the wiki a couple of times and still have no idea what's going on. It almost looks like Flash. Never seen anything like it. 2D kids shows today are almost all computer animated, because it's quicker and cheaper than film, and results per man-hour look a hell of a lot better - anyone age 30 and up will remember how terrible the animation on all but Disney and WBs cartoons were, so I find myself wondering why Scanimate wasn't more widely used.

Looks like it basically is at least in the sense that when you scan in your assets they become vector graphics and the program will interpolate between keyframes for you automatically producing that hyper-smooth kind of motion.

Ah, OK that kind makes sense. I got confused when the wiki started referring to analogue computers. So I guess it's like a mega sophisticated Vectrex/analogue oscilloscope - the computer is manipulating the electron beam to produce vectors on the screen, which it can of course rotate and scale freely. Cool stuff. I imagine doing proper cartoon animation was right pain in the arse in that case, hence it was mostly used in basic presentation style images.

Holy crap, that reminds me of this incredibly obscure cartoon that showed up in the early 90's. I knew there was something odd about the weird way some of the characters movements had this strange smoothness to them, any ideas what kind of techniques were used? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ek076NK6Rw

I wonder if there's some early computer stuff going on there. Scanimate was dead by 1992. I love the mix of styles in there. The main characters have tons of frames, whearas the bad guys are deliberately crude. This 2D scaling and rotation from times it has no right being in is melting my brain.
