Movie props have 'undeniable charm.' A new Disney+ series spotlights the fading art
We polled more than 40 TV critics and journalists, inside and outside The Times, on the best TV show to binge while stuck at home.Inspired by movies such as the original “King Kong,” “The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad” and “Jason and the Argonauts,” St. Amand said he “just wanted to learn how to do all that stuff.”“Back in those days you wanted to learn how to sculpt. … You had to learn something about mold-making [and] things like taxidermy,” said St. Amand.
“You couldn’t always do your specialty all the time; you were always kind of thrown into situations,” explained St. Amand. “But that was pretty good, because each of us got a chance to do a range of things.” Though the evolution in technology allows for more complicated shots, even motion capture still requires “the eye of somebody like an animator” to fix anything that doesn’t look quite right. The technology has just changed the process.
