![]() ![]() Additionally, the whole concept of an action/adventure game targeted at a mature audience is an idea I've never seen tried before.īuy it, as long as you are age 17 or older. While there is nothing especially original about any one thing in Conker's BFD, the elements are brought together better then in most games. The sound was a big part of what made this game great. Character voices are used throughout the game, with Conker and other characters commenting on the action. There are a full range of noises, from the action specific to background sounds for a given area. This set the feel for the scene and was a wonderful touch. Each area had its own sound, such as the banjo/fiddle duo played in the barn area and haunting violin music of Castle Conkula. The music for Conker's BFD is spectacular. However, this was only a minor issue and didn't detract significantly from the game. The only defect was that you can occasionally see lines in the background. In general, Conker's BFD has a cartoonish and exaggerated features, such as blood and vomit look like gobs of jelly. Conker himself is even more detailed, with a full range of facial expressions, droplets that fall from Conker's body when he has been in liquid (don't ask what), and a shadow which acts very realistically. The designers put as much work into the background as they did into the enemies and interactive items, which are well detailed and amusing. The graphics for Conker's BFD form a solid foundation for the rest of the game. The games allow you to set the objectives and there are a wide variety of weapons/boost items available for use by the players. dinosaur, and allow free for all and team modes of play. ![]() Each of the shooters has a different theme, such as tank vs. There is a racing game and several different action shooters. There are seven different multiplayer games of a variety of types. Unlike most the multiplayer offerings of adventure games, Conker's BFD has a variety of options for multiplayer action. The multiplayer portion of Conker's BFD is practically a game in itself, and one worth owning at that. When combined with the large number of special situations and shifting play style, Conker's BFD is a game which stays interesting and fun from beginning to end and leaves you wondering what's next. The various areas each have a theme, which is supported by the music, sound effects and background. However, the game also shifts into shooter mode at times, with areas in which you have to fight past waves of zombies or an army of evil teddy bears. Usually you have to use something in the scene to defeat your enemy. Most of the fighting is against the various bosses of the game, and this is rarely as simple as hitting them until they fall. Much of the time you must complete tasks while avoiding hazards and enemies to advance the game, such as rolling a ball of poo up a mountain through a gauntlet of flying dung beetles. However, all are pretty straightforward, and both the game and manual describe them well.Ĭonker's BFD is not thick with enemies to fight, being in large part a game of challenge. ![]() Needless to say, there are far more controls than are worth describing in this review. These are areas where you can push the B button to use or do something you need at that location, such as ready a slingshot, take an alka-seltzer, or push the big red button on the back of the rampaging robot.īeyond the basic controls, Conker's BFD also includes a host of special situations which use different controls, such as swimming, using guns, riding a pitchfork, driving a tank, flying around as a bat, and much more. The B button also serves as the activation button for "Context Zones". The A button also activates a "helicoptery tail" move in mid-jump that fans of Donkey Kong 64 will remember. The control stick covers directional movement, the A button jumps, the B button attacks, the Z button crouches and the C buttons control the point of view. Gameplay, Controls, InterfaceĬonker's BFD has a fairly standard interface and point of view. Still, it is a great game with a lot going for it. Death is every bit as bloody as in Quake, the use of vomit and bodily waste makes Boogerman look tame, and the language goes well beyond the bleeps of South Park. Rareware went right up to the edge of good taste and took several good, long steps past it. The game is loaded with cut-scenes, many of which are several minutes long, and includes spoofs of such movies as Conan the Destroyer, Bram Stoker's Dracula, and Saving Private Ryan.Ĭonker's BFD is also disgusting. Fortunately, the designers included cut-scenes to help keep you up to speed. Without an overarching theme, I was occasionally at a loss for what to do next. ![]() ![]() ![]() Over 3.5 million copies of his Bible recordings are distributed throughout the world.

![]() ![]() ![]() Composed and arranged by Yoko Kanno, the music was an iconic feature that reeled many Black anime lovers in. You can see the influence of Black music right from the title which references bebop, described by Yonn - a fan and cosplayer - as “a form of jazz that’s very high tempo and ‘scattered,’” that was known for musicians’ improvisational “jam sessions.” The historical essence of bebop and its extensions are also manifested in the titles of each of the episodes, known as sessions, which are named after songs and other cultural references. Cities on Earth look a lot like they do now, though far more dilapidated in many places.” ![]() Although they are in the future in outer space, many of the terrestrial places are in various stages of history. In Cowboy Bebop, the past, present, and future are all experienced at once. “Ytasha Womack explains how Afrofuturism seamlessly meshes past, present, and future, so that they occur all at the same time. “While many people tend to view time as linear or spiralling, many Afrofuturists posit that time is in fact an intricate web, marked by spirals and spokes with no singular direction,” she says. While a major component of Afrofuturism rests on the intersections of the African diaspora and science, there is a deeper connective tissue that transcends all space and time - the creation of a future that is established by and for all Black people.Īccording to Iwani Mawocha, a voice actor and model who majored in Afrofuturism, the parallels between Afrofuturism and Cowboy Bebop can be understood through examining the concept of time. Du Bois and Octavia Butler penned works that intentionally centered Blackness and characters in science fiction, and musicians like Herbie Hancock and Sun Ra blended the sounds of rock, jazz, and funk into the soundtrack for these stories. As an adult, I realized that Cowboy Bebop was heavily influenced by the intersections of science fiction and Black culture, or Afrofuturism.Īlthough the concept has a plethora of definitions, according to Susana Morris, an associate professor of literature, media, and communication at the Georgia Institute of Technology, Afrofuturism is “a cultural movement, an epistemology that centers Blackness and African diasporic culture and technology.” Its US origins date back to the late 19th century and extend well into the 20th century, where important figures such as W.E.B. Looking back on my roots, I not only recognize how crucial Cowboy Bebop was in strengthening my interest and appreciation for anime, but it also bridged the gap between honoring Black music, my budding interest in space, and deepening my relationship with anime and Japanese culture.Įven though the main characters of this series are not Black, the music, style, and themes of it resonate with me and feel reminiscent of, and even parallel to, my experience as a Black person. I instantly fell in love with the anime’s aesthetic and tone, a love that would extend well into my adulthood, inspiring me to get a tattoo and sing praises of this great body of work time and time again. The series, which is directed by Shinichirō Watanabe, follows Spike Spiegel and his “crew” of bounty hunters, who are colloquially referred to as cowboys, while simultaneously giving us snapshots of each principal character’s storyline over a backdrop of jazz music. The one that stuck with me the most was Cowboy Bebop, a 1998 neo-noir space Western that takes place in 2071. My father fed my imaginative spirit by giving me books on the Solar System and inspiring me to foster a deep love for the futuristic sounds of George Clinton, Parliament-Funkadelic, and jazz music.Īround this time, my cousin Elliott and I would play video games and stay up late to watch anime. I wanted to be an astronaut, and despite living in a world that constantly reinforced that Black femmes would hardly walk the moon, my family encouraged me to be driven and reach for the stars - literally. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() You can download kmspico activator from below: All Office 2010 products are supported – 2016.ĭo you want to download this tool?

![]() but if Magix is only repeating one frame. It's interesting the ( Post#1), difference glt finds between Magix and VegasPro. trying to find a suitable "Test" is very difficult. if I can use Movie Studio to create stunning SloMo then I wouldn't bother with the SloMo in the CX410 - but that camcorder is very good at SloMo and the detail is excellent, so until proven otherwise I think the Camcorder does use a higher shutter-speed and frame-rate, but as discussed on other threads. I too support that as the two are not entirely separate. This is glt's Thread I think, so if he can discuss SloMo in both Camcorders and Editors - why not? This is by far the easiest way to spot adjacent identical frames. No one expects that it will be possible to recreate the missing frames, the whole point in using footage to test is that you know exactly what each frame will contain when shot normally. You can retain and pitch correct the audio. There is effectively no limit to the duration of the footage you can process. ![]() It's very easy to use the same tricks to precisely emulate what the camera does in an editor. Simply looking at the footage shows no increased noise or a reduction in the ability to handle low lighting conditions. The shutter speed they are using precludes recording at a higher framerate (you cannot for instance record 100fps if a single frame exposure takes longer than 1/100 second). They do not record at an increased frame rate at all but in fact simply use the camera buffer to record the same frame more than once to the recording file. Analysis of footage from both cameras shows clearly they cheat. I have two Sony HD camcorders, both of which declare some degree of slow motion capability. Next step I am going to add a simple 25 frame animation to the original frame sequence to see how that gets treated, unless someone has a better suggestion. The images show the results of the intermediate frames generated between the original frame containing the number 12 and the next frame containing 14. The results are interesting in that Vegas clearly uses frame interpolation to produce new intermediate frames and Magix merely repeats the first frame a number of times. ![]() I then used Vegas Pro 12 to stretch the clip to the maximum possible in one go and the same using Magix Pro X6. The resulting clip when loaded into a video editor and single frame advanced generates a clear image for each frame despite mpeg compression.ĪDrive | Online Storage, Online Backup, Cloud Storage ![]() Photoshop was used to create the images and the resulting 1 second video clip (25 fps), though any editing software could have been used. Initial tests used a sequence of 25 frames with each frame being 1920 x 1080 containing a sequence of number 00, 02 - 48.

Where does “The Humans” rank in your filmography? I remember complaining about doing press for something and she said if somebody had told you 30 to 40 years ago, you’d be doing this, you would have kissed their feet so shut up. I’ve gotten jaded to some things, but my wife reminds me to stay grounded. It makes me appreciate doing this - somebody’s talking to me about a movie I made. This profession is going to kick you around some time in your life, so it’s better to get it over with when you’re young. She did that and taught dance at a high school for 18 years and if it wasn’t for her, I don’t know what we’d have done. What was I going to do? How was I going to support myself? How was I going to educate my kids? My wife, god love her, was a teacher. I worried about where was my job coming from. You really appreciate having some success and having options, because for years I didn’t. How did those years of struggle impact you? You’ve said that you didn’t start booking film and television work until you were 35, and you were 60 when you received your first Oscar nomination. You had success relatively late in your career. It tells me that I still really love what I do, and I still love the challenge of it. I thought it would go away, but it doesn’t. I get anxious before I do something all the time. I feel anxious about doing something because I know what it takes for it to be really good. I don’t feel anxious when I’m performing. You’ve been at this for years, do you still feel a lot of anxiety about your work? Once we got on the set, it was like a play rehearsal to me. Once I started doing movies, I stopped doing theater. ![]() I have been on stage for years, but for 15 years, I did four or five plays a year. Did that training help with making “The Humans”? ![]() I think somebody said, the nice thing about having money is you don’t have to worry about money. There’s a lot of people who are unlucky and struggle. When I had children, it was like, how am I going to raise these kids? How can I afford it? It was terrifying. There are a lot of people that don’t have that safety net and it makes life a lot harder. When I was a struggling actor, I always knew that I had somewhere to go if it all just collapsed. To be in a position where you can’t help your children is a terrible place to be. They love each other, but he’s terrified he’s going to lose his family. And here’s a man who is at an age where he should be enjoying some fruits of his labor, but because of his own horrible mistakes, he’s put his family at risk of not being able to afford a place to live. There are so many families in this world where money is an issue every day. Did you feel like economic anxiety was a central theme of the story?Ībsolutely. At one point, your character says something to the effect of it should cost less to be alive. It was ballsy and beautiful, the way he shot this. For me, it wasn’t a play that was filmed. What he couldn’t do on stage, he wanted to do in the film. He had been thinking about what this would look like on screen for a long time. We didn’t know what it would be like, but we quickly realized that he knew what he wanted and he understood what this movie was. What was it like to be working with a first-time filmmaker in that context? Stephen Karam isn’t just adapting his own play, he’s also making his feature directing debut. Every issue they had is in the realm of what families go through. This is not a pejorative term, but the ordinariness of this family.
