He Suffers From Severe Depression and Uses Mushrooms, LSD & MDMA to Fight His Dark Thought Which TBH Makes Him the Legend He is Today Also I Think Making “Mad God” Took A lot of Time, Effort & Energy to Make By Himself It’s Also Crazy to See How Many People of All Ages idolise Him He Doesn’t Realise How Amazing are Is But I Hope One Day He Does……

Just watched Light and Magic on Disney this man is an absolute legend.

He looks and sounds like Philip Seymour Hoffman.

Phil's explanation of "the transitional dinosaur" for Jurassic Park is worth the price of admission.

I love the courage Phil Tippet shows when he shares some of the experiences of his personal life along with industry insights. He also has no peers when it comes to his craft.

2:50 and that's why the cgi in Starship Troopers looked so good even today. They went outside. I know some digital companies still do it but hose that actually make the effort like this end up looking better for it.

Generally all CG effects companies capture on location data, including lighting references. They consolidate the lighting information into 2 spheres : a reflective mirror sphere for capturing environmental light sources, and a grey sphere for capturing incident light values. This has been a standard method since the early to mid 90's . A model reference might be used if it is available, for capturing specific shadow and ambient light details.

you're probably mixing the cgi from the practical effects... most close up shots and those that interact with the actors were practical, and the faraway running bugs were cgi...

This is the best artist I can imagine. He draws, paints, sculpts, animates, directs. The Da Vinci of movies

Phil Tippett the Legend. Hats off to you sir. Without you, my childhood would have been a pale shadow of what it was.

Phil Tippett is to VFX what John Williams is to scores. His work will be remembered and lauded, just like Johns, long long after he's gone because he is the best at what he does. I absolutely adore his work - and I have nothing to do with the film industry or anything like that. I'm just a long time film fan (I'm 53) and Phils work has permeated every movie I've ever loved and watching the docs on how he understands how things need to be done for them to work on screen is just amazing. A lifetime achievement award from all the powers that be should be given. A brilliant man.

Phil Tippet is right up there with Ray Harryhausen and Stan Winston in artistry and ingenuity. Gifted visionaries.

A true true artist. This guy is so awesome it hurts.

His effects with a "touch" of CGI will always look amazing and never ages; thats something that is forgotten

I loved the Warrior bug. It was really one of, if not the last instantly recognizable movie monster.

Phil Tippet is a madman and I love him for it

Lol. He kept the money.

He was totally serious

This man is what made Star Wars what it is today. George has the nerve to sell the franchise they created. Meaning Ralph, Dennis, Phil, Rich, Rick, An Ben with John's score. I hope George compensated them after the sale. Beyond a complimentary beer. Remember everyone. Who knows what the TSR fans will do when they're no longer here.

The beginning...I’ve never seen anyone pull off that level of deadpan face before. 😂

Phil: "Oh gawd - 'don't want to do this'- okay, let's go..meh"

the function curves comment was worth the whole interview.

"For a dollar" I like this guy :)

So this thing we are looking at was really complex to make, totally revolutionized how cgi can be done, won a couple of oscars and literally started a totally new industry. The interviewer: that's neat.

Or just annoyed of all super geeks, that drools all over his stuff and worshiping him for things he necessarily like or like talking about anymore. (as a artist in sculpting, painting and other types of art.. often you dont like your early stuff because you now, would do it much better job or do it differently!) or sad and misses the good old days ...just a excessive, over complicated, thought out theory that i spent way too much time writing in English😂

Loving the AT AT in the background during the Jurassic Park section. Very nice.

So glad I sorted oldest to newest. It's crazy to see how far you guys have come! Right on

I like how he’s leaning on his own gut.

The Living Legend!

I understand what he's describing with manipulating the 'points' to achieve a realistic looking animation, but I can also see how much effort he was putting in to try to make sure Will understood him. At one point the guy even gets a bit flustered. I think Will got it, but I can see how hard it might be to explain these concepts to someone.

@convolution223

yeah, as someone who dabbled in 3D animation, what he's talking about is the graph editor, which is kind of a pain but a necessary evil. And yeah, each keyframe's default is to have an exponential (slow approach, slow finish) curve to it so each keyframe seems unnaturally fluid. He's right that in real-life things move at different paces and there are more starts and stops.

The GOAT

that ED209 prop looks small?..i know it's in the background but it looks smaller than the full scale prop i saw in the robocop making of featurette...

Why does this guy not speak Tippet…poor Phil…needs someone on his level.

How this has only 2,200 upvotes I don't know. Look at all those models! ED209, RoboCop "2" (Kane), Starship Troopers bugs of all sorts!

That's not the full size, screen used ED209. Looks at screen caps and you can see the differences. I imagine they built two in case something happened to the hero version.

Phil could learn to smile

from an animator's perspective, this was awesome :D

Anyone else wonder if Phil moonlights as a Mall Santa?

Bob Dumawhity That's Phil Tippet. If you watch other interviews with him, you'll see that he behaves as if he doesn't like *anyone*. He's been working closely with Hollywood movie executives for around 40 years. That might have something to do with it.

At that price he should have directors and producers lined up out the door. Many drop a lot more money than that and never even get close to holding a statue.

Did the full-size version of the ED-209 also come with machine guns? I mean, when ED is gunning down this guy in the board room, is that the model or animation.

For one thing, he didn't "create" it, he was just the visual effect director, and on that field of the film, the film exceed in it, even though it didn't in other aspects.

hey Norm, no touch.

Norm, I think you're a lovely guy (why would I think otherwise), but I think you need to work on your presentation / interview / research techniques. You come across as a bit of a school / fan boy and you don't really understand what the interviewee is actually saying back to you. You're not engaging in a dialogue in the way you should - you seem detached and want to move on to the next question rather than possibly exploring something the person you're taking to just said etc. Just a few notes, not a criticism, you're enthusiasm is infectious - I loved the LOTR masks unboxings and especially loved the Batwing unboxing with Adam.
