New sketches from a film.
This time, the timeless and unclassifiable masterpiece: Stanley Kubrick's"A Clockwork Orange" (1971) (La Naranja Mecánica)
Based on the novel of the same title by Anthony Burgess.
Starring: Alex DeLarge (great Malcolm McDowell), some kind of anti-hero, a young man whose principal interests are ultra-violence and Beethoven.
You can find tons of terrific visual contents in this film. Every shot is a lesson on how composing a scene and
Copy and learn from all the shots you can (it's like a master course in "Kubrick's School") I'll post some of this shots, but now...a few quick sketches of Alex in action... (pencil on paper and a little color with multiply layers)
ta.ta.ta.taaaaa (Ludwig van Rules!)

More sketches about Alex and his gang! (and a little shot)
Some studies of Douglas Fairbanks in "The Black Pirate" movie.

Studies from the final fight on this fantastic (and nowadays a classic) movie.
Richard Lester's Robin and Marian is maybe one of the latest appearances of Audrey Hepburn.
The film was first released in 1976, and Sean Connery looks older than now! (what a man!)
The final fight is a great scene to study and learn everything!
Two Old men fighting with two big and really heavy swords.
A must see!
Another study about composition in classic movies. This time: Falstaff, 1965 (a.k.a "Chimes At Midnight") A strange movie by Orson Welles, filmed completely in Spain. The plot is a compilation of extracts from Shakespeare's 'Henry IV' 'Richard II' and other plays.
In this movie you can see one of the most emblematic sequences of Orson's career, the awesome battle in the middle of the film.
These are sketches of three fantastic eye-worm shots. I am charmed with the second one.
Otro estudio sobre composición sacado de las pelis clásicas. Esta vez "Campanadas a medianoche" de Orson Welles. Es una peli bastante rara, que además está filmada por completo en España, una tierra que nuestro querido Orson adoraba. La peli es de 1965 y el guión es un refrito de varias obras de Shakespeare (Ricardo II, Enrique IV y Las alegres comadres de Windsor).
La peli tiene una batalla impresionante además de miles de planos que son una lección por sí mismos. He subido bocetos de estos tres contrapicados, muy típicos de Orson, pero la verdad es que no dejan de alucinarme.
El segundo es una verdadera joya, profundidad de campo infinita... Y esos colgados bufff!
Some sketches from John Huston's "The man who would be king" another classic movie from 1975, starring Sean Connery and Michael Caine. The story is taken by Kipling and tell the adventures of two British soldiers in the days of high Empire! And yes, Connery still looks older than know!
New sketches from a film. Cos you want it...you get it!
After a long time, this section comes back with
MOGAMBO (1953), a fantanstic jungle-film with an awesome casting (Clark Gable, Ava Gardner and Grace Kelly!!) and directed by John Huston.
Some scenes was filmed on Safari in Africa. And there's gorillas in that film...great
Tarzan's Clayton Character has some kind of deja-vu with Gable's role.
Más bocetos rápidos sobre pelis. Por petición popular, aquí lo tenéis de vuelta!
MOGAMBO (1953)
Una película clásica de aventuras en la jungla, con unos protagonistas que quitan la respiración, Clark Gable, Ava Gardner, y Grace kelly. Además dirige John Houston.
Tiene algunas escenas rodadas de Safari en África (eran otros tiempos y se podían permitir todo lo que se les ocurriera) y encima salen gorilas!!¿Qué más se puede pedir?
La verdad, es que al ver a Clayton en la peli Disney de Tarzán...siente uno un ligero dèja-vu al recordar el personaje de Gable...
