  is a brilliant fantasy seen through a child's eye and better than "Pan's Labyrinth."
  Tarsem uses NO digital "cheating" in his films which are part of the fun aspect. Consequently, the film is far more realistic looking and much more entertaining.
  Don't let your race-based prejudice, which your Bollywood comment appears to be, stand in the way of seeing this. His only other film, "The Cell," also betrays no Indian (I'm almost embarrassed to have to say it, Patrick, to you) Bollywood influences.

      there seemed to be digital enhancement but not creation.
      I don't know how else to describe it.
      It's like 2001 compared to SW.
      You'll notice the difference, immediately.

        but a co-worker of mine at the last place I worked edited it... quite a bit of it while I was still there (he'd been Tarsem's main editor for a while and edited The Cell). I've worked with Tarsem before... and he's not averse to using some digital shenanigans but you are correct... the work done was to the filmed footage not footage created artificially.
        
        Tarsem would finance the film by doing commercials and he'd convince whatever ad agency that he needed to film commercial "x" in such and such a location and while there he'd film bits for the movie. It was virtually self financed and it was a long process.

        he's a genius.
        Truly.
        I can't wait to see another of Tarsem's creations and I know the editing is a valuable part of the magic.

        but movie wise he's only gotten to do those two.
        
        He's best known for having done some of the best commercials and music videos over the last 10+ years.
        
        Now that I'm at another company I've been up for jobs where he was the other guy up for the job and have yet get the gig when that happens... but it's nice to be considered in that company.

        I don�t follow you any more.
        I said ( like you ) I do not like B. films.

        Your presumption that The Fall was a Bollywood film based on the name of the director.

        Ah That!
        Well o well ...
        I remember Tin saying about Bollywood films, it is not his taste, was he racist?
        Anyway, I was more tickling him as it is no B. film at all, or?

        I suspected as much. But ya know that kind of humor doesn't always work in an online forum format. What do they say? Communication is 10% the words... I don't think he got the joke. Very subtle and sooo specific. Nothing worng with that, just be prepared to explain it. ::sigh:: I hate explaining jokes, it kills the funny. I'm glad you enjoyed Saved.

        Yes you are fully right.
        And every time I have toexplain I know it will be a pain in the posterieur...
        And it does not work in real every day life either everytime...
        As real as here.
        Nice...
