Anchor “Inside Out” (4K)

The “jelly-man” sequence of “Inside Out” leaped out at me. I asked director Jonny Kofoed if it was inspired by Albert Omoss’ experimental artworks.

The character is actually the product of Assembly’s Alex McCleod, who has this to say:

The jelly-man came from our GPU-powered simulation testbed, which gets new features every time we use it. It’s usually a fluid simulator, and it’s generally real-time, so instead of trying to keyframe a plausible flopping animation, we just recorded an interactive session of pushing, pulling and swirling a man-shaped bundle of infrangible liquid, and we kept the highlights.

Another product of the same simulation system:

The Academy Where Butlers Are Born


Learning to serve as a certified butler is both a skill and an art, and the world’s most elite butlers come from one place: The International Butler Academy in Simpelveld, Netherlands. Here, students spend 10 weeks in intensive training, living and working in a 135-room mansion where they learn everything from how to drive an armored car to napkin folding. Ready your coattails, we’re going to butler school.

There are several different ways of thinking about how many continents there are, with models ranging from 4 to 7 continents. However, in most English speaking countries, as well as other nations around the world, the 7-continent model is taught.
