A Behind-the-scenes docu on how the "HBO Starship" intro from the 1980's was created. Taped off HBO in 1983 and captured from an old VHS tape.

Wasn't it HBO where they had a camera on the front of a bicycle going through parks and such with music to kill time between shows? That was a long time ago! lol

Great find, @ktwdallas! Makes you appreciate the artistry and craftsmanship that went into creating that intro. As for the song "Illusions"...it sounds like a weird mix between the main riff of Prince's song "Do it All Night" and Billy Joel's "My Life", covered in a layer of cheesy lyrics. But the songwriter managed to get it in a HBO documentary, so good for them...I guess. LOL.

@Baraquiel62 I think most people have it. But few know how to use it.

now this technology is in my home

I've got this somewhere, too. It was amazing! Now CGI may look more real, but there is no ingenuity like this.
-
I want today's behind the scenes to have thematically accurate music.

Oh, don't be a moron. This was recorded 30 years ago. This was state-of-the-art back then. Next time, try to hear yourself speak.

@Zhylo again thats something someone who is uneducated about computer visual effects would say. pixar works harder on a project and spends more time than any animation film before the advent of cgi. The amount of technology we have doesnt stifle creativity, it allows much more room for doing whatever the imagination can come up with, the room for detail is immense.
im getting the feeling people think a movie like transformers just gets typed into a program and is spat out with these graphics.
