Blog Update: Geek Pages

Carl Setzer

I’ve been negligent here. My apologies. Time has been…challenging, to say the least. I noticed today just how far behind my geek pages have fallen. As we slowly crawl our way out of the pandemic, there are new events scheduled. There are several events scheduled, both virtual and in-person (much later in the year). Also, a few of the geek businesses have changed/gone out of business (sadly, including one of my favorites, Otherworlds). But I got everything caught up.

Check out all my geek focused pages:

Take a look and let me know if there’s anything that needs work.

 

A Behind The Scenes Look At The Clone Wars: The Phantom Apprentice

Carl Setzer

​I have really enjoyed the final season of Star Wars: Clone Wars. The animation is amazing, and the stories, well, for me at least, perfect. I’ve reconnected with the characters enough that it’s going to hurt when Order 66 goes down.

Last week’s episode, The Phantom Apprentice, was powerful. Part of that was bringing back Ray Park, who performed Maul in the Phantom Menance, and an exceptional martial artist. The team used motion capture to create this dynamic, engaging piece of film (can I call it film if it’s only digital?).

Below is a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the episode. Well worth watching if you’re fascinated by the production of movies and tv.
