QUEER (2024) miniature effects

[@filmdesigner800]

Does my ❤ good seeing not only miniatures being used but so many young faces working on them. Thanks for this Berton, brings back good memories of another lifetime.

[@reznik232]

Couldn't agree more. It's just fantastic!

[@luciusvorenus9445]

Fantastic model making and miniature creations. Bravo to these skilled and talented artists! Very well done!

[@spacehog57]

Building miniatures was a dream job of mine growing up. Never made it. But I still build scale models every free time I have. I just love watching these videos and marvel at each and everyone's talent. Thank you for sharing and I am looking forward to the next video.

[@sergkauk]

Amazing work! I didn't realize how vast miniatures use was in the movie upon seeing it. Admittedly two scenes looked off: cars driving on an overpass and airplane taking off. One could argue that they could have been cut off but then I wouldn't even notice this incredible part of the movie.

[@yamato-yosoroku-klausketeer]

I like miniature effects!! Thank you!!

[@AllThingsFilm1]

Fantastic work. Would love to see miniatures come back more often in movie making.

[@InCameraTV]

Thank you Berton once again for documenting magic and craft! Much love x - JP

[@raymondleggs5508]

Beautiful model work, I hope this profession never dies! The Capsized S.S. Normandie (U.S.S. Lafayette) is masterpiece in of itself.

[@LutzAlbrecht-Mylenium]

Your work always amazes! 🙂It's good to see there are enough film makers that still trust model work and keep you busy!

[@christophermitchellsr9492]

each one of your videos is so much fun to watch . the skill and talent that each person puts into building an painting a model/miniature for a movie makes it a artform all to itself .large scale builds are fun an it shows on there faces as they work an are very relaxed . i look forward to your next video i posted it on twitter an in a facebook group an on Bluesky as well . keep up the great work . your my favorite channel for movie miniature's an movie bigitures .

[@piercefilm]

Thanks for the support!

[@gieselats]

Awesome work. I adore your work. So impressive. You are the real heroes behind the scenes. Models will always spread more joy as any cgi effect could do. Keep the good work.

[@wetryuiop]

CG全盛の時代でもミニチュア製作は残っているのですね。頑張ってください。

[@cardiffst]

And it’s immediately gone from a film I didn’t know existed, to a film I now want to see.

[@dccinematicarts]

Exquisite work; thanks for sharing this amazing artistry.

[@paulo5501]

A spectacular work. Congratulations. Congrats from São Paulo - Brazil.

[@happyboar1019]

Wonderful 🤩 I think you have the best job in the world 🤗

[@davidperezc]

Awesome work!

[@joellintz]

Un grand BRAVO à Simon et tout son équipe !

[@scotchbudmeister9018]

Love the miniature world and the craftsmanship it takes to create it. AI just can't compete. Very impressive.

[@robatsea2009]

Phenomenal work!

[@jimmywhyte7181]

Ive been watching this channel for a couple of years now and i still dont really know what is it. Thought it was clips from a movie some days, others that it was a YT channel uploaded videos not part of a movie. What ever it is, its bloody amazing, great work and great memories of great films.

[@berendharmsen]

I think he started the channel as a way to release the hours of footage he collected for his (great) documentary of interviews with practical effects people who worked on the movies in the 'shoot everything with models' age. He also made his own stuff (also great) and shared much of that as well. I was always surprised about how much content he was able to keep trickling down to us on this channel, but I think he finally ran out of stuff he made himself (interviews and his own work) and instead of calling it a day he then went on finding similar footage from other sources. I absolutely love this channel as well.

[@piercefilm]

I wrote a brief description on the main page. My channel is mainly for my ongoing documentary on miniature effects in movies (Sense of Scale). I also included short films, movies and commercials etc. that I directed.

[@piercefilm]

No other sources. I work and film in the model shops now making these workshop behind the scenes docs.

[@the_wingnut]

I've always been fascinated with models and miniatures. This channel is an absolute treasure trove of things I'd otherwise never knew existed, thanks to the incredible work of making it look real!

[@jimmywhyte7181]

@@piercefilm These films are outstanding, thanks for sharing them here, its been fascinating watching them, some of the greatest effects work in movies, thanks.

[@doubleedgedfist1535]

Wayyyy cool! I would love that job!

[@Antoniorodrigues-zx2oy]

Parabéns pessoal, belissimo trabalho em equipe. Também sou maquetista.

[@lornepeterson777]

So great to see this, it does my heart good.

[@trainlover16]

Incredible.

[@nicksavage4763]

VERY COOL 🎥 😎

[@AudieHolland]

I wish we could see more finished movieshots featuring these amazing miniatures.

[@piercefilm]

The trailer has some finished shots in it. But many of the miniature shots were edited out of the film to cut down the running time. Hopefully they show up in a longer version on the Blu-ray.

[@aholland20132]

Who is singer of that hauntingly dream-like song? It fits perfectly.

[@piercefilm]

Sinead O'connor covering a Nirvana song. It's in the movie soundtrack.

[@justinplayfair4638]

It’s the first time one of your videos has a featured song, yes?

[@piercefilm]

@@justinplayfair4638 Usually I use the film soundtrack music if possible. But I couldn't get the Trent Reznor music.

[@justinplayfair4638]

It’s fits very well! In fact, it’s one of the best Sense of Scale segments…we actually the model makers *as they work*, rather than hearing their later recollections! Looks like I’m going to have to look up Queer when it comes to home video!

[@darmok072]

wonderful stuff

[@enriclibert545]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Rest in peace the fearless pioneer that was Sinead O'Connor. ⚔️❤️⚔️

nice good!!

多分、CGのガイドに使ってるんだと思いますが。この辺のこだわりがリアリティに通じるんだと思います。

[@casio745]

for few minutes of a movie ......this much effort

[@SandCrabNews]

It's not "make believe"; it's "make them believe."

[@MarleneSB]

Thanks, I hadn't heard of it at all. Certainly looks interesting.

[@Bedlamite23]

You don't wanna throw a music credit up here?

[@piercefilm]

It's Sinead. Her estate will make enough money. This is about the miniature work for the film.

[@alonsoguillenmarquez3131]

No era mejor grabar en México y ya?

[@piercefilm]

Mexico is probably too dangerous. There is more control in Europe. It's not supposed to be totally real. Miniatures and studio sets are used as a style choice by the director as far as I can tell.

[@pixelspring]

AI is coming for my job, and I build all of what you see here with software.. The sad reality is that the only reason someone paid a lot of money to get these sets built is for some reason they had an idea it would look more “real”… which simply isn’t true anymore. AI isn’t quite there yet thank god , but it will be soon. Sooner than we are all prepared for. You can’t build miniatures and have the materials behave properly to physical effects forces. Stiffness doesn’t scale linearly. Great and amazing work btw. Very talented team… I wish we lived in a world where your skills had permanent residency.

[@piercefilm]

It's kinda down to the few directors who appreciate a stylistic "look" with miniatures. Like doing a stop motion film instead of computer animated. At this point it's great to see miniatures, even if you know it is a model you can appreciate people actually making a thing that exists. And you can go see them in museums (Film Museum of Miniatures in France), which is not possible with CGI or AI. Also you can bid on model props from films if you have the money, and own a piece of cinema history!

[@pixelspring]

@ .l appreciate the reply and the work of your talented team of artists. Long may the skills and the work exist. When it’s done well, it works great.

[@sbcinema]

the models look great, but I'm not sure about the title of the film if that's the kind of film I would watch

[@piercefilm]

The film is from a novel with the same name by William Burroughs. He also wrote Naked Lunch

[@cheulesyigess1187]

Nice miniatures, but definitelly not my kind of film.

[@piercefilm]

William Burroughs is not for everyone. David Cronenberg did a decent job directing Naked Lunch.
