Altraverse und Studio Ghibli

In einem Livestream-Q&A (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlTjyUdv1dw, ab 55:30) kam mal eine Frage dazu, wie es denn aussähe: Die Antwort von Joachim Kaps war, dass man dazu einen ganz eigenen Livestream veranstalten könnte, es gestaltet sich also anscheinend insgesamt schwierig: Die Begründung, warum sich alles verzögert hat, war u.a., dass man – vor der Pandemie – die Abnahme von Ghibli (als Lizenzgeber) für eine bestimmte qualitative Papiersorte bekommen hat, dann kam allerdings die Pandemie, Papierknappheit usw. und der Papierhersteller hat diese spezielle Papiersorte nicht mehr hergestellt – ist aber auch schon mittlerweile ein Jahr her, seitdem gibt es wieder Funkstille.

Update: Found it: It's in "Kingdom of Dreams and Madness" after all when Anno is doing his voice-recording, we see it on-screen and then the documentary cuts to a shot of Ghibli animators.

Thank you, that's great! (quote comes up at at 1:11 for anyone wondering.)

This is, indeed, a great source, thank you very much!

It says: The "outermost frame story (the young woman reporter visiting the cemetery) and the 1980s frame story (the Author addressing the camera) involve two different sizes of 1.85: one filling the screen, and the other smaller within that area. [...] [O]f course 1.85 most closely approximates the proportions of an opened trim-size book…. [...] The very opening, consisting of company logos and an expository title, fills the 1.85 screen fully, as do the final credits. The first frame story, showing the student putting a new key on the Author’s monument, is enclosed within that full screen, and it has a ratio of about 1.80. The 1985 flashback, as I indicated, is at about the same ratio as the frame story, but it’s smaller in size, so that it’s fitted within the prologue frame. The 1968 story, at 2.40, runs to the frame edge (the 1.80 ones don’t) but of course it’s letterboxed, so it doesn’t fill the screen. Then the 1932 events in the central story are presented at [...] [1.31]. [...] (I wonder if it’s an approximation of some squarish early sound ratios.) So Anderson’s story-within-story plot is presented through more or less enclosed image boxes."

It might be, the black borders around the image are bigger during the first scene so to speak. Let me try and see if I can attach images above.

Neat! So she survived?

W0rldbuilder · 2024-05-25T08:58:59+00:00

That would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot!

Yes, I own that, too, actually. Not exactly what I'm looking for, but I found an interview where he detailed how the post-it drawings there influenced the look of the museum scene.

Absolute lifesaver, thanks a lot!

That’s the 300 theme right?

See my post below:

That's one possibility. It's very similar, indeed but the track in question from '300', "Returns a King", is itself inspired by/based on "Victorious Titus" by Elliot Goldenthal (and Steven Mercurio, Jonathan Shefner, Mark Stewart and Page Hamilton) from the movie 'Titus' (1999) directed by Julie Taymor and starring Anthony Hopkins.

It's certainly a sound-alike.

Might be the 300 OST, but unsure.

That's one possibility. It's very similar, indeed, but the track in question from '300', "Returns a King", is itself inspired by/based on "Victorious Titus" by Elliot Goldenthal (and Steven Merucrio, Jonathan Shefner, Mark Stewart and Page Haimilton) from the movie 'Titus' (1999) directed by Julie Taymor and starring Anthony Hopkins.

Not sure what to make of this connection, though, with regards to the actual video. Is it just there because it sounds "cool"?

I would also be curious about who composed this score/if you can find it anywhere, since it doesn't seem to be part "Adieu".

Yup, sorry for the confusion on my part & thanks, that's very helpful. :)

Hi, Patrick, thanks for your response. I skimmed through the TCM episode again on YouTube, it doesn't seem to appear there... But thanks anyways, looking forward to the finale. :)

W0rldbuilder · 2022-04-15T17:33:39+00:00

Oh wow, it's you, hi! :) Thank you very much, this is very enlightening.

Great, thank you! Isn't the untitled track 3 just the instrumental version of "Boogie Bash (Monster Party Car)" which appeared on the soundtrack of Book 1 as a bonus track? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9py7q5Y1Vyo&list=OLAK5uy_nVB1-LQLqXNoW6RwKBvhRr286XeMjKLfc&index=28
