Sense of Scale
Himself
Berton Pierce travelled around America and Europe to interview model makers. Each offers a personal account of their work, and thoughts on the changes in the industry. The documentary is an oral history of the amazing hand crafted workmanship that has produced many iconic film effects over the last 35 years. It focuses on a subject Berton cares deeply about; how computer technology is slowly taking away practical hand made craftsmanship.
Bad Teacher
Special Effects
Elizabeth es una profesora mal hablada, despiadada e inapropiada. Además bebe, se coloca y en lo único que piensa en es casarse con un buen partido que la mantenga y le permita dejar de trabajar. Cuando su prometido la deja, pone en marcha un plan para sustituirle por un rico y guapo profesor. Para ello tendrá que competir con Amy, otra profesora, hiperactiva y llena de energía. Cuando al mismo tiempo un sarcástico e irreverente profesor de gimnasia no para de tirarle los tejos a Elizabeth, las consecuencias de su salvajes y escandalosas confabulaciones aportarán a sus estudiantes, colegas e incluso a ella misma, una educación sin igual.
