This is Phil Tippet's year. Mad God, Light + Magic, the doc on his career and now this book. I have held him as a hero since first seeing his name in Cinefantastique's massive Star Wars issue. Through recent interviews and appearances he became, in my mind, a wonderfully imposing beast of a talent, and, most recently, one of most poignantly of human artistic geniuses. How can you not love the man?

@charlesgaron8131 Год назад

Yeah his year. Everyone knows him!

@Steve51983 Год назад

When I think of Phil Tippett, I immediately think of the 1985 film titled Dinosaur! that was hosted by the late Christopher Reeve. Such a great documentary. As a child who loved everything dinosaurs, it didn't get any better than this.

@movingforwardLDTH Год назад

Adam, thank you (!!!) for the reminder to look at other people’s work for inspiration. My “making” is photography. Over the past five years or so, I fell away from it. After some major life changes, the itch to pick up my camera has returned, but without any direction. I’ve felt lost. Hearing your advice flipped some switch in my brain, reminding me of my start when looking at other people’s work inspired instead of depressed me. Thank you, so much, for that! Time to schedule a day in the Photography section of the library! 💋

Love Vermithrax! The majestic shot of the dragon flying in front of the moon was masterful. Peter MacNicol once said that the special effects crew rigged a propane cyclone cannon to shoot at him behind the shield of dragon scales. When he asked if it was safe, they said 🤷‍♂ "sure"

@standingbear7851 Год назад

I just got this book as a gift from my mother for my birthday. My dad introduced me to Predator, Terminator, RoboCop, Star Wars, starship troopers and Stan Winston when I was 11 and 12 years old. My dad was an artist, believed in Extra-Terrestrial life, and was a big fan of movies. I want to follow in his footsteps, looking to see if Stan Winston school might be right for me 😎

@robertjosephkeil Год назад

There are very few people that actually deserve the word "genius" attached to their name, but Phil Tippett is unquestionably one of them.

I watched light and magic last week, it was such an informative series and truely showed the vision George and his crew really had. Pixar was a real surprise to me also. A must watch.

@Vickie-Bligh Год назад

Phil Tippet is one of my heroes. I've always been fascinated by "How did they do that" for the movies and he was the first magician I learned about followed by Rick Baker and many others. Including this obscure guy by the name of, give me a minute, oh yeah, Adam Savage. Thanks for sharing this Adam.

@AwakeningWings Год назад

Thank you for sharing. I've learned a lot about Phil Tippet and his work during college a few years ago. I also learned a lot about ILM. I've always loved seeing what goes into making films and animations.

@andreassiegler2238 Год назад

Thank's a lot Adam. Now I have at least two new pieces to put on my watch list, that I hadn't heard of before! 😁

@ReiverBlue1971 Год назад

It's my favourite film in about 5-10 years, maybe longer due to it's sheer depth. It's one of those films that you can watch over and over again and still spot new bits or references etc

@waywardsage Год назад

It was a wild experience watching Mad God with you and Phil a few months back at the IMAX dome in San Jose months back Adam! I agree that Mad God really shows the possibilities that Phil imagines. So many filmmakers that hired Phil left so much on the table! I just picked up my copy of the book and hope to get Phil to sign it someday!

@nathanwood5977 Год назад

I really love art/prop/model books. This is on my radar!

@RapidActionAnimations Год назад

Stop motion is an amazing art form and I’m really glad to have discovered it. Stop motion helped me get into film and more particularly film history/special effects/practical effects.

@ReiverBlue1971 Год назад

It certainly gives you lots of other other options, effects and style etc as well as a certain appeal as and of it's own. I watched some stop motion (including some of his work) that had been increased in frame rate from about 30 fps to 144 (I think) and up to 720 (creating higher res detail from nothing of course). although it looked very cool....it somehow lost something...a certain ....oddness or creepiness that comes along with the frame rate

@unsoundmethodology Год назад

I love books in all their forms, and even though I've been reading books on screens for maybe three decades, there are definitely areas where the physical book is what you need. The thing I love most about them in this age is _discoverability_ . Being able to open a book up anywhere and see things you did not anticipate is key. This is also why I love printed catalogs and databooks. A web site you can search, or scroll through - but a search requires you to know what you're looking for already, and scrolling just shows you the things along a particular track. A bound stack of paper is best for serendipity.

@liberispuritatem Год назад

Adam is so passionate in this one!

@drumheartbeat Год назад

Thank you for this review. I bought the book for my son's birthday as inspiration to take his own creative work further. He has been making Halloween costumes since he was small, my wish for him is to make creatures all year long!

@ReiverBlue1971 Год назад

Phil Tippett?!?!? It was only recently that I found out about a wide range, over MANY years, that were examples that of work I have loved had come from him!!! Watching "Mad God" has become my go to for both my eyes and mind and one of the most fascinating films I've ever watched. I have it on my phone to watch it before sleep (yep, my dreams are a touch weirder!) and it the film I go to when I'm not sure what I want to watch (so I've seen it ....I think I've lost count tbh). As an animator by training myself I feel it allows me to see more than most when watching the film of 30 years effort....magnificence!!

@AcidBathFreakshow Год назад

I have always loved the robot Cain from Robocop 2. Tippett has some truly amazing work. I'm glad I watched this video because I never knew some of my favorites were from one man. Thank you Adam!

@ReiverBlue1971 Год назад

Same here! All this stuff...the Tauntaun, Robocop 2 (which was ALWAYS awesome) etc. To find that almost ALL my favourite animations over the years have been all from this man (I went on to study a degree in modelling and animation for games) AND one of my favourite films, simply mind blowing ;D

@DividedWeFall Год назад

11 priceless minutes of Adam gushing and nerding out.

@houdin654jeff Год назад

I’ve seen the original Star Wars trilogy hundreds of times… seeing Light & Magic gave me a new appreciation for the stop motion work in Empire, specifically the Tauntaun run cycle. You expect the fluid run of the creature, what I’d never considered is the bags and other soft elements attached to the saddle; they bounce with each step. That means the animators had to account for the inertia of the saddle bags going up when the foot went down and hitting the creature’s side when it was going up. It’s a perfect illusion because I’d seen it for years and never noticed it. Phil truly is a mad genius.

Love his artwork. Lousy at supervising dinosaurs.

@danielclement2832 Год назад

If there's anyone who can claim to be continuing the exceptional work of giants like Ray Harryhausen, it is Phil Tippet. Light and Magic was a great watch. I thought I knew a lot about the behind the scenes of Star Wars & ILM, Light & Magic reveals *so* much more!

Adam out here looking like Norm showing off a wonderful large and interesting Art book!

@dubbingsync Год назад

Except Adam has the control to not make it seem like you’re hanging around with your “weird” friend. Not saying Norm is weird, though.

@Ewong251 Год назад

Phil Tippett's role in Jurassic Park is likely what drove him to make Mad God, and make it his "Magnum Opus" as Light + Magic showed that he (understandably) was upset about his role changing while making Jurassic Park. So now he took the opportunity to lay it all out and be happy he put out his best work.

@maratkumekovich2724 Год назад

Cool !!!

@Vadlor Год назад

There have arguably been 6 great epochal films in special effects history, and Tippett had a direct hand in 2 of them (Star Wars and Jurasic Park). An absolute genius for sure. ... and ya, if you haven't seen Mad God, go now!

What I took away from watching Light and Magic was just how easily the hard work of John Dykstra (who wasn't asked to return for TESB) and Phil Tippett (whose work on Jurassic Park got kicked upstairs once CGI had advanced) was essentially discarded. I don't pretend to know both sides of those stories, but John and Phil did *not* look happy to get kicked to the curb.

Hi Adam, I've always wanted to see the knock on wood myth verified. I have an idea on how to make it happen. I can sit down at a wooden table blindfolded and declare "I hope I don't slip and fall" then knock three times on the table. I would then get up and walk around the room with random slick patches placed around the floor. If it is true, my chances of falling should be far less than if I did not knock on wood.
