Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with today’s Behind the Scenes Pic!
It's October, so naturally I couldn't let the month go by without a nod to at least one of Sam Raimi's Evil Dead flicks. I'm going way back to Evil Dead 2 with not one, but two photos from the filming of the movie.
These stills are pretty groovy in that we get a glimpse at the stop motion effects. Assistant Animator Brian Rae helps bring a flying deadite to life. I'm struck at how basic this set up is. I know they were making this sequel by the seat of their pants, but one of the below photos you'll see a setup that looks very much like what a lot of indie filmmakers throw together today... Just a blue screen and some small lights.
Thanks to Elise Holmes and the Practical Effects Group for the images. Enjoy!
If you have a behind the scenes shot you’d like to submit to this column, you can email me at quint@aintitcool.com.
I thought tomorrow’s behind the scenes pic would be... taller.
