This is a short sequence of different people getting punched in the face. All the people are different shapes and sizes, and the amount of detail you see is incredible, it shows me that if i decide to use a slow motion fight scene, i have to use real punches because you can see so much detail and it would be too obviously staged if i were to fake it.

Andy Wachowski and Lana Wachowski
I cant look into the slow motion fight scene without toughing on The Matrix, however, the slow motion used in this is rarely if at all in hand to hand combat. Its mostly in explosions, bullets or leaps. but alot of what I've seen here will help me in making my film.
Zack Snyder
Zack Snyder's movie adaption on Frank Miller Graphic novel uses similar qualities to the fight scenes from Sherlock Holmes, but instead of adding the slow motion to display intelligence, its simply there to look cool, and it does, there are filters and contrasts that look incredible, and certainly is something i should think about adding to my film.
Guy Ritchie
In response to my previous post, after watching the sequel, guy Ritchie goes on further making the slow motion intellectual fight scene more impressive, in this, both parties figure out each others moves before the fight takes place, this has given me many fresh ideas and will be the main inspiration for my film.
Guy Ritchie
most of the inspiration for our group project came from Guy Richie's fight sequences in Sherlock Holmes, it uses fast and slow motion to show the thought process of taking out an opponent before it actually happens, i love the way Ritchie has added intellect and intelligence to something so brutal, it's a very original idea and one that works perfectly and is very effective.
Millennium FX
i dr who the tardis disapears often to time travel, in this the machine slowly fades away, and slowly appears somewhere else, its especially effective with its very famous sound effects, however i don't have the programs to such visual effects.
ILM
In the 2009 Star Trek movie, the teleportation is made of little white lights wrapping round the body, and in a flash the teleport, which is a very hollywood sci-fi way of doing it but also very effective I could use a similar technique to this but it probably wont look as convincing as the 'Looper' effect would.
Legacy Effects
in Thor, the travel using a 'bifrost bridge' in which is a machine which sends the characters to other planets at the speed of light, they shoot up into the air, travel through space, whilst i love this idea, i don think i can go down a route that is too sci-fi as i do not have the expertise to make it look realistic, i would like to look further into it though.
ScanlineVFX
'Looper' uses time-travel, but visually it looks like teleportation and a simple way to do it, the characters simply appear and Disappear with no visible effects, which is a good route for me take, and something i think i could accomplish with clever camera tricks.
Weta Digital
since my video will be about teleportation, I've decided to research into films that use teleportation. the first movie that sprung to mind was x-men first class, which displayed a fantastic example with their character Azezel.
