WARNER BROTHERS BACK LOT ILLUSTRATION

Very loose brief from Warners for a panning, looping illustration to be shown on a video monitor in their hotel lobby, Warners Theme Park, Abu Dhabi.  Result; interesting artistic and legal discoveries on route to the final.  Brief; do something with the backlot and maybe 3D titles of our famous movies.  No problem....

... until legal got involved.  John Wayne on a golf cart shooting his gun; never going to happen.  Keanu Reeves face; no way.  Certainly not next to, 'The Lego Movie.'  'Harry Potter,' and, 'Austin Powers'; adios.  And the whole mixture of titles; a legal quagmire.  Who'd have thought?

Pass #3  Final, Right Half

Success.  'Harry Potter,' transformed into, 'Shazam!'  John Wayne into, 'Dumb and Dumber.' And Keanu still there at the end credits.

Details Below; 'Happy Feet,' illuminated by the, 'Bladerunner,' spinner and the two bumps ahead of Gandalf on the stairs; the hobbits. It's those tiny details....
