Earlier quoted context omitted.

Very cool! Animation is missing this classic from Aha: https://media.tenor.com/KAxhQIW7wTYAAAAC/aha-take-on-me.gif

Also movies such as Who Framed Roger Rabbit [1] and Space Jam [2]. [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KujzFdGu7gY [2] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yS_muZsLBok

And the intro to Watchmen would deserve to be there.

Edit: I guess that would simply be the "Slow Motion" section.

Really like it but it feels very sluggish which I assume is due to the size of the content. Clicking on FPV Drone seems to result in 192 mb being fetched. Despite this, clicking on a thumbnail still takes time to fetch the full size. I don't know if a more optimised format would be enough or a TikTok layout would be better suited but it does impact the experience negatively. Love the project though.

This was very smooth in my iPhone. Strangely satisfyingly smooth.

It's the small screen since the site loads as many images as is required to fill it. On a full-size monitor, it's a lot more and hence takes a lot more time.

What is this exactly? Doesn't explain anything on the site.

A catalog of various (usually) camera-created visual affects. It gives names to all the weird angles, pans, and tilts that you might see in film. A lot of them are pretty extreme and would overwhelm if over-used, but are eye catching in short amounts, such as ads, music videos, or short bits in longer format film.

Loved the description, using it. :)

My monthly mobile data plan consumed in seconds. I hate html video autoplays, especially on mobile! Unfortunatelly it appears that it is currently not possible to disable it in Kiwi browser... EDIT: someone on Reddit suggested AutoplayStopper extension

I can't wait for the day I can make photo-realistic full length movies with spoken dialogue and different camera effects entirely using an AI-generation / AI-enhanced tool. I have a feeling those days are coming soon.

Out of curiosity, do you already make films without the use of AI? And if not, why?

I'm saddened that in the 4th wall examples they didn't add Leslie Nielsen from Naked Gun walking around the prop door. I thought that was the classic example. For reference - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siE_182RwpA

It's such a blink and you miss it kinda thing, but then a lot of gags in Nielsen films are like that
