VFX supervisor notes: why does super awesome transformer jet require pilot to go from the cockpit to jump out of the emergency exit to a redundant cockpit while the previous cockpit just goes offscreen? Is that a requirement from the toy company so parents have to buy 2 jets?!

Why transform in a way that just safely migrates the cockpit around as-is, when you can play an incredibly dangerous mini-game of Shadow of the Colossus that leaves you hanging on for dear life, and also exposed to constant attack while changing positions? It's SO bad, lol.

I’m wondering why it transforms from a mech into a mech for no reason.

It's actually like 6 jets. F15, F16, A10, F35(or22, it's slop), back to F15, also a helicopter, and finally some kind of weird thing at the end.

It was like the first thing I noticed, which distracted me so much that I then spent the rest of the video trying to find it, oblivious to anything else going on

Also, why is bro 2 feet tall there? Also, grinding a MISSILE AGAINST THE PAVEMENT SEEMS LIKE A BAD DESIGN

Seems like an extremely dangerous transition and a great way to lose a finger

I just kinda wonder why the pilot spends more time outside the jet climbing around than in it just to fly backwards. Of course if the cockpit kept dropping off the robot I would jump outta it too.

Other note, why does the final cockpit require the pilot to sit in it backwards.

Watching the whole clip is like watching a monkey scrambling from one branch to another

Unironically your tweets are a great source of free training data for future video models.

Macross Plus (1994) has an amazing transformation scene.

The wheels turn into fuel tanks, and then either disappear off screen or become its legs. AHAHAHAHA. It's so bad.

The ultimate push you-pull me ride at the end, thrusting in both directions, I don't think that's what Asymmetric thrust means 🤣

I dont buy this whole vfx supervisor crap, because i noticed dude leg morph into car door in like first viewing of beast wars official trailer. No one even cared when they just had bullshit morph effect transformers in fourth movie.

Add another note: inconsistency in the transformation.

Because it's made by normal ppl. Outcomes will be different once professionals start using it or even a film student.

This dude is hilarious. He give his "notes" on these videos while ignoring the thousands of examples from actual films where the logic is just as shit. You do realize the point of this is to demonstrate the tech and how crazy it is that this can be done in almost not time or cost

David Friedberg: "He called for an emergency urinary bag and stayed in the cockpit... that's when the guy tried to kill him" FRIEDBERG: "And I do think a big shout out to the pilot." "If you read the reports, he wouldn't go to the bathroom because he had suspicions that his co-pilot was going to do something. He called for an emergency urinary bag and he stayed in the cockpit to pee in his urinary bag. That's when the guy tried to kill him. He fought the guy off. While he was stabbed and bleeding out to death, he heroically opened up the cockpit door and screamed for passengers to come and help. And then several heroic souls stepped up and saved the day and saved 170 some odd lives. That's the story. It's a story of terror. It's a story of human heroism. I don't care where these people are from. I don't care what religion anyone is. I don't care what political interest anyone might have. This is the story that needs to be told. And it is being kind of recast by the media about Israeli politicians trying to score points, which is what the New York Times is trying to sell on their cover page today. Yeah." "As opposed to the story of what really took place here." Additional context: David Friedberg shared a gripping account of the Flydubai cockpit attack on All-In: a pilot suspected his co-pilot, used a urinary bag to stay in the cockpit, and got stabbed fighting him off. The core heroism is documented, but the viral details do not match the record. Here is what the investigation and reporting actually show: 1. The cockpit attack is real On Flydubai Flight FZ1073, the first officer stabbed Captain Smit Machchhar and forced the Boeing 737 MAX into a steep plunge. 2. The captain's actions saved the flight Despite severe stab wounds, Machchhar fought back and hit the door release switch. Passengers and off-duty crew rushed the cockpit, pinned the attacker, and safely diverted to Tabuk, Saudi Arabia. 3. The bathroom detail was conflated Reporting from The Guardian and The Washington Post documents the actual lavatory connection: a mother waiting with her child near the forward bathroom heard violent screams inside the cockpit and alerted passengers. There is no official record of Captain Machchhar suspecting his co-pilot beforehand or using an emergency urinary bag.
