Even the same walker has four completely different backgrounds in a few seconds!
Yeah, it's funny how the general action, along with a brief in-between scene here and there, can sell a multitude of differences between various elements. That's the magic of 'movies' I guess.
Of course, early Film-makers didn't have to contend with rabid fans of certain movies scrutinising various shots with their sweaty thumbs poised over a 'pause' button, as is possible nowadays!
A lot of things can seem worse in a still photograph, than is really the case. And the reverse can be true too, of course, if the 'motion' of a fine element is poor. (Well that's my one deep thought used up for this month then....)
Thanks again for your help by the way, doubleofive. Can't wait to see Ady's 'one-man studio' efforts on this thing eventually!
