Tune in for 'part two' of this week's Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3 'Awards Special' where we continue our conversation with VFX Supervisor, Alexis Wajsbrot, and Lead Animators Pete Warbis and Chris McGaw.

Listen as we go behind the scenes working as part of the 'strongest animation team ever assembled' and recognise the work of the global, multi-site Framestore crew, including the excellent teams in Production, Marketing, R&D, Pipeline, HR and management across London, Montreal, Vancouver, Mumbai and Melbourne.

We get an exclusive inside look at the climactic stampede sequence, discuss how the flashback sequences serve as the film's emotional core, and emphasise the team's achievement in eliciting emotions for entirely computer-generated characters rather than just the recognition of the technical prowess.

We discuss what makes Guardians 3 'award worthy', get into key learnings the team took away from working on such a game changing show, a fascinating conversation on the creation of character nuances and subtlety, including pupil dilation, breath work and tear meniscus detail, not forgetting a long list of shout outs and MVP's!

Episode 38, Part 2 - Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3: Awards Special

Title: Guardians of the Galaxy

Description:

🌌 Unleash the cosmic force with "Guardians of the Galaxy," a high-octane rap mixed with trap elements from G.O.G.E.T.T.A Music, where AI technology meets human creativity to forge an anthem for the defenders of the cosmos. 🚀

This track is not just music; it's a battle cry, echoing through the universe with the vigor and vigilance of Apollo and his team. Armed with aggressive lyrics and pulsating beats produced through the collaborative genius of AI and human artists, "Guardians of the Galaxy" paints a vivid portrait of modern-day heroes united against threats to peace and justice across the universe.

🚀 Verse of Valor:
Dive into the opening verses where Apollo and his guardians proclaim their role as the ultimate protectors of the galaxy. AI-enhanced sound engineering sharpens their lyrical flows and enriches the hypnotic trap rhythms, setting the stage for a saga of cosmic scale.

🌌 Chorus of Champions:
The chorus bursts forth with fierce energy, powered by AI algorithms that perfect the mix, enhancing the clarity and impact of the guardians' rallying cry for unity and precision in battle. Delivered with a spicy edge, it resonates with a dynamic, youthful audience, ready to join the fray.

💥 Bridge of Boldness:
Through the bridge, AI and human ingenuity push the track into a sprint from Orion to Andromeda, capturing the unbreakable spirit of the guardians. Their determination, metaphorically rendered through AI-refined rhythmic cadences, echoes boldly across the cosmos.

🎤 Outro - An Epic Conclusion:
"Guardians of the Galaxy" concludes with a roar, symbolizing not just exploration but dominion over galactic lore. The story told is a testament to the power of collective resolve and the enduring spirit of guardianship, amplified by the seamless integration of AI in the music production process.

Guardians of the Galaxy (From "Black Stellar")

(Verse 1)
In a world where heroes clash, battles rage,
Marvelous adventures fill each page.
From space's depths to urban streets,
We stand united, no foe defeats.

(Chorus)
Marvel crew fights for what's right,
Powers shining through the darkest night.
From Iron Man's suit to Captain's shield,
Heroes emerge, destiny sealed.

(Verse 2)
With Spider's webs and Thor's mighty hammer,
Black Widow's stealth, never a stammer.
Hulk's raw strength, Hawkeye's precise aim,
Together we face the fiery flame.

(Chorus)
Marvel crew fights for what's right,
Powers shining through the darkest night.
From Iron Man's suit to Captain's shield,
Heroes emerge, destiny sealed.

(Bridge)
In chaos' grip, we bring the light,
Guiding lost souls with all our might.
Through trials and battles, we never yield,
Justice and peace, our powers wield.

(Chorus)
Marvel crew fights for what's right,
Powers shining through the darkest night.
From Iron Man's suit to Captain's shield,
Heroes emerge, destiny sealed.

(Outro)
Join our ranks, stand by our side,
In Marvel's realm, where heroes abide.
With courage and strength, we'll prevail,
In unity's embrace, never to fail.

A learning and talent development focused podcast made by Framestore, for Framestore! 

Every two-weeks we present a conversation in two halves!

Part one - the Framestore Podcast Dailies! Each week we invite a guest to our regular ‘dailies’ session. Set questions designed to find out what makes our guests tick, what they do at our studio, their career journey so far and all manner of advice, tips and tricks. 

For our second portion, arriving later that week, we hand the reins over to a guest co-host, a member of our global community who stands to learn a lot from the experience who engages our special guest into a deeper dive conversation. Arguably a more technical discussion depending on who we have on the pod.

Also, check out 'The Framestore Dailies' Spotify playlist, where each guest and co-host share two tracks from their most loved 'music-to-work-to' artist 🎧

Here’s a little story about a trio of janitors. 
Might have heard they worked at a well-known film school.
They picked up a few things other than trash. 
They might hate your movie, or if drunk think it’s cool.
Every now and then they get together for a lunch break. 
Trash talk some movie, or TV, or streaming.
Rodney and Jason and Sean – they all clean halls. 
If you listen close you can hear kids screaming: Film School Janitors!

At your local top-tier film-and-TV school, these three lurk the halls… sweeping… scrubbing…mopping…

What you drop, they pick up.  But that’s not all they’re picking up.

You see, after twenty years of cleaning up after film students, they’ve learned something – most movies are garbage.

So whenever their lunch breaks align, they catch up on the latest Hollywood has to offer.

In between taking out the trash, they’re talking trash.

Rodney – Sean – Jason… They are The Film School Janitors
