All feedback is greatly appreciated. * In 1919, Charlie Chaplin was the most famous man in the world. When he faints during a film shoot in California, he's taken to his office to be checked by a doctor. But as the doctor soon learns, Charlie off-screen is not at all like the lovable characters he is so famous for. Doctor for Mr Chaplin was written and directed by Mike Booth and stars John MacCormick as Charlie Chaplin and Laurence Saunders as Dr Cecil Reynolds. It was made in Stratford-upon-Avon, England, and had its big-screen debut at The Empire Cinema in Leicester Square on the 13th May 2017 where it was the winner of the British Lion Award. ---------------------- Please leave a comment and let us know what you think!

Here it is side-by-side with the original opening. Check out the CGI version here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SgonBJvVgsw ThunderCats is of course the property of Warner Bros. and its affiliates, and this video should be in no way used for financial gain or commercial use. This video is not associated or connected to Warner Bros. and is simply a fan film made by and for fellow ThunderCats fans. </video> <video> ThunderCats Opening Remade with CGI Description: * ThunderCats Film Update: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJrxYiOmBq8 * Facebook: facebook.com/tcatsjustice Instagram: @mikeboothfilm Earlier this year, I thought I'd have a go at learning how to use 3D animation software, really just so I could do some simple effects in my films... but I got a little bit carried away. The ThunderCats have been a love of mine since I can remember and the intro is something I thought would be a fun challenge to recreate and keep my interest while I was learning the software. I'm now developing a ThunderCats short film, making use of some of the years of notes I've kept for a feature trilogy. I'm currently recruiting 3D artists to help me, so check out my channel for updates on that. All 3D animation was done in Blender, an awesome (and completely free) animation software. Shoutout to those behind the MB-Labs plugin for Blender which I used to create the base models for Lion-o, Cheetara, Tygra, Panthro, WilyKit and WilyKat. Lightning and smoke effects were done in Adobe After Effects. Edited in Premiere Pro. Thanks also to the many YouTubers who upload Blender tutorials - I must have watched hundreds of them. Ian Hubert's lazy tutorials are particularly awesome and inspiring.
