L'EST

My post below had me thinking about other motion graphics when Lord Of War sprung to mind. The film itself slipped under the box-office radar with the marketers strangely pitching it as a bad Cage shoot-em up, when actually it was a well produced film with a taught script addressing contoversial (for Hollywood) subject matter. The film must have been a nasty surprise for Hollywood-blockbuster-action junkies, because it was a pleasant surprise for me.

The film kicks off with one of my all time fave opening sequences. It follows the life of a bullet from it's manufacture at the factory all the way to the battle field. The virtually seamless combination of live action and 3D graphics was done by the very talented and very french L'EST.
