Killer Bean: From dragees to grain

News about the imminent appearance of a Roguelike shuther Killer Bean I caused me a flurry, it seemed, already forgotten memories. Shots of a short cartoon, which tells of a warlike anthropomorphic beans in a lonely inflated mafia, flashed through a kaleidoscope. Moreover, the nuance noticed in the youth most tormented most of all: the ports will carry the characters of the bea-granical shape, and therefore they shine shamelessly with the lower part of their body, painfully similar to the filing.

All fiery hello, in touch of Cheezzy Violet beard, and let’s learn a little about the appearance of a bean killer. Who has become a prototype for him, why the hero is a bea-grain form, and also where here is a cow who knows how to Kung Fu.

The history of the appearance of a grocery killer begins long before the idea. The starting point should be considered 1973, marked by the birth of the future author of the bean killer — Jeffrey Lew, who later shortened his name before Jeff. The formation of a creative person, awareness of the craving for creating, usually fits in many sources in two lines, the animator somehow spoke in detail on the already deceased website "3D Festival". But, as they say, everything that was on the Internet remains on the Internet.

From the very tender age, Jeff watched exclusively militants. Was imbued with love for martial arts, in particular eastern. Therefore, as soon as in high school he was given the opportunity to remove something, he did not think for a long time. The future animator began to rivet parodies on his favorite militants with friends on his father on a video camera. Of course, instead of cinema, stupid stupid films came out. As an example of the extravagance of the resulting paintings, Jeff recalled the name of one of them-cyborgs-ninja became bad (Cyborg Ninjas Gone Bad).

The end of the school led to a natural parting with friends, and to a difficult choice of further path. As a result of long thoughts, the next step in the development of the animator was training at Columbia University at an electrical engineer. Yes, not everyone works in the specialty.

Studying the exact sciences, Jeff did not forget about his own creative nature. Well aware of all the absurdity of staged battles in home films, he plunges with his head in martial arts in order to prevent this. Four years go to the knowledge of Taekwondo, another on karate, and at the end of the college, Jeff is fond of kung fu.

As the animator himself admits, classes of martial arts allowed him to better understand the body, and also how it moves. The acquired skills not only helped when creating animation, but also predetermined the genre of future work.

In parallel with the study of martial arts, Jeff tries himself in acting. As described on the site dedicated to the second short film about the bean killer, the animator is quite a lot, where he starred. Of course, there is no question of any main roles. However, the big movie did not pass by the Creator. Among the extras on the last frame of the American comedy "Wong Fu, with gratitude for everything! Julie Newmar ", In which Wesley Snips lit up, and Patrick Suezi, you can find Jeff. True, as we and I did not beat our eyes, as we did not look closely with a magnifier, we could not find the future animator. Eh, apparently, our undoubtedly eagle gaze is still replaced by great -age chicken blindness.

Somewhere there is Jeff here

Site on the second short film

Having finished college, Jeff is arranged by a web designer. All free time, including a bit measured for sleep, he spends on studying computer animation. A little bit in this matter, Jeff finally decides to create a short film. And before we touch on her, let’s take a look at the creative broth of the animator from which a bean killer came out. The good of Sherlocks from the Internet still managed to find one of the early sites of the Creator.

On the surviving fragmentation page, you can see the first works of Jeff. Although not even so. For unfortunately, it will not be possible to see the characters, but here you are to get acquainted with their background, please.

The legendary KSEMA space marineer is the very first human model created by the animator. Once this brave warrior planned to wear green hair, and emphasize his cool style with volleyball glasses, but fate ordered otherwise. The young rebel was committed suddenly for himself, preferring a more restrained appearance.

The second character, born from under the cursor of the mouse of Jeff, is a fatal charming Sky Lark, earning a hunchbacket with caviar with a spying. Moreover, it does not hunt for where, but in the rotten false city of Blu City, whose inhabitants are under the oppression of tyranny. At least the images of the beauty through the lived years to see and are not destined, however, it is possible to imagine the common features. For what thanks to the comrade Creator, who added a little backstage kitchen to the description of the hero.

The deadly spy on all the drawings https://gamblingsitesnotongamstop.co.uk/review/lucki-casino/ that had now gone in the fly was not captured in full growth and with an absolutely serious face. Probably, a charming girl with great pleasure would captivate men with her smile, and a slender wasp waist, but it was not possible to make it possible. No, not because of the strictly upbringing of the father, or some views of Jeff. Just an animator, spending a lot of time on creating a character, it was not able to give the spy with his teeth, and with his feet. Although in the future he still planned to finish.

The bean killer nicknamed Jack Bin became the first 3D model of Jeff. On his old site, the animator describes it as the most cool hero. Killer, on whose first pistol the name of the offender is engraved, and on the second — surname.

Here you can also see the nascent comic universe (let’s call it so), which will be a red line on all the work of a bean character. The fact is that the author for many years, advertising cartoons about hot beans, will create a allusion to films. Like, in reality, Jack Bin, although a rather violent comrade, but everything that happens on the screen is a movie recorded on a video camera. In this connection, on the pages of the site there will be an incident from the filming, and a little later on YouTube, the main character will broadcast about how this or that scene was shot.

A similar supply of cartoons, it seems to us, was explained by Jeff many years ago. On an old site dedicated to the second part of the bean saga.

Having said goodbye to college, the future animator suddenly realized that acting skills did not bring him income. Then, in search of crispy bucks, Jeff rushes into the web design pool, but the dream of cinema, in particular about the director’s chair, is in no hurry to bury. Therefore, wanting to make his own film, the Creator and turns to animation. As a cheaper, in his opinion, alternative. Subsequently, the dream of creating a film was reflected in a peculiar presentation of Alya cartoons, we shot everything that was happening in reality.

Here, on the site about the second short film, Jeff shared the idea of ​​creating a steep killer. His rounded bean shape with handles and legs is the result of low work skills at that time in the animation program. Since you can’t think of it easier than the character. But the hero himself, his personality, his habits, according to the author, are borrowed from the film by John Wu "Hile killer". From a work telling about the charismatic professional killer, which was held hostage by his own feelings. And yes. There is no connection of the bean jack and John Wick. For, as the deadly bob himself said in the top of the ten of his best murders, the character of Keanu Reeves is not at all uneven.

For the first time, Jack Bin appeared in a short short -term interrogation, not even reaching even three minutes. The protagonist, according to an uncomplicated plot, is captured by enemies and brilliantly gets out from a difficult situation. Of course, an accurate eye, clever fingers and two powerful pistols help him in this. True, the protagonist appears to the viewer not in the best form for him. Instead of anthropomorphic beans, or coffee beans on the legs, we will see a red ovoid, which does not have enough letters “M” on the belly of popular multi -colored dragees.

The shortage of abroad received a little success, but most importantly — it became a training manual for Jeff. A successful breakdown of the pen, which set the positive dynamics of the Creator. After all, after some year two, he receives his first professional work of the animator. Thus, closer to the dream.

Over the next six years, Jeff has been working hard on large Hollywood blockbusters, working at the same time working on a continuation of the story about a bean killer. And before touching the second part of the grocery killer, let’s take a look at the creative research of the author. For there is something interesting there, close to our once youthful heart.

Acquainting with Jeff’s biography on different sites, both acting and already deceased, you want, you want, but you come across the same thesis. Like the most iconic work to which he was lucky to attach his computer mouse, is "Matrix: rebooting". Jeff was a leading animator responsible for the majority of the main characters, and also participated in the creation of visual effects. To argue, of course, we will not. The matrix, of course, is the legendary saga, but purely for us, subjectively, there is a more profitable work.

In the 2000s, when the memes were shared through the infrared ports of the phones, when the short videos recorded on the disk, or the disk, indulged from hand to hand, then it was customary to carefully store especially their favorite videos. Moreover, the funnier or cringe, the better. Indeed, at the time of the boredom that suddenly fell on you with friends, or in an awkward moment of stalling communication with a girl, one could always hit the interlocutor with his sophistication, demonstrating a preserved roller.

Oh, what videos did not roam from one computer to another? From excerpts from cartoons to performances of politicians prohibiting to shoot Baghdad. And among all this diversity, we clearly remembered the fight of some monk kung fu with a cow. Horned belly, in the manner unusual busters, famously endowed a person with cuffs, and dairy products. The video instantly became a courtyard hit. The only thing, however, no one knew, and did not even think where this scene was taken from. For why? It’s funny — and the rest is not so important.

And only now, after almost twenty years, working on the material about the rounded killer, we learned about the existence of comedy "Kung by: run into a fist". As it turned out, a fight with a cow was taken from this film. Moreover, the setting and implementation of the brawl completely fell on the shoulders of Jeff, hired by the director of the film.

Kung according to: run into a fist

Of course, in addition to these two films, Jeff worked on a number of works, but let’s still return to our indefatigable beans, which turned into coffee beams in continuation. At least externally.

In the second short film nickname "Party", The main character clearly demonstrates what happens with noisy neighbors if they interfere with the lifting killer. Directly, as according to the precepts of Zemfira.

Cartoon for a huge number of cool scenes and rampant action naturally became the standard of cool videos in our yard. And this is also taking into account the absence as such an overwhelming number of acquaintances. What can we say about the West?

Jack bin burst into many tops. American television program "At the Movies with Ebert and Roeper", telling about all the movieovers, she called "Party" One of the best works on the network. Dozens of festivals unanimously gave Jeff’s brainchild first place. And the killer himself settled on the covers of magazines. It is not surprising that such a media promotion led to the unprecedented growth of fans, the emergence of an online store for the sale of near-aluminated merchants, and as a result-preparation for work on the third series.

Jeff finally decides to throw off the shackles of the short meters, and take up a full meter in the animation. The work was a large -scale work, but how much the vast animator would not even imagine. To create "Killer Bean Forever" It took long five years.

Jeff seven days a weekend over the keyboard of 14 hours a day, parallel to raise children. All accumulated savings, as well as possible credit amounts fell on the altar of production. Moreover, the sales of animation courses, which the author trained almost from his very appearance on the Internet, did not save. I had to take a part -time job so as not to stretch my legs with hunger.

It was no better things were with technology. Of course, to afford a whole rendering farm, which owned large studios, Jeff could not. In this connection, he was, in fact, deprived of the right to error. The redrawing of ready -made personnel was poured into huge costs, and not only cash, but also temporary. Its five four -core computers for two years have been rendering non -stop. And the heat emanating from working equipment could safely replace winter heating.

Of course, it is a little wrong to say that Jeff alone created a third part of the bean killer. Nevertheless, other experts also invested their forces in the embodiment of the picture. This is true. Yes, only the most enormous layer of titanic work lay on the shoulders of Jeff.

Killer Bean Forever 4k — Official Full Movie

In 2008, a bean killer, who, most likely, is called coffee beans, appears on the screen of the International Film Festival in Toronto. And later, in 2009, the full -length cartoon became available to the general public.

Spectators with warmth accept the new work of Jeff. And the number of loyal fans begins to be calculated by thousands. Over time … well, yes, over time. Ten years later, roughly speaking, the animator loads "Killer Bean Forever " on its channel on YouTube, thereby awakening, practically, faded of interest in the work.

With a slight presentation of popular foreign bloggers, fans of full -length scope capture the Internet by memes about Jack Bin. Social networks, Orthodox YouTube, even annoying the older generation Tick-Tok are simply oversaturated with scenes with a cool mercenary. Add hype and fans, meticulously studying the cartoon.

For example, one of the fans considered the approximate growth of the protagonist. Here we make a reservation that since the beard of humanitarians to the brain of bones, the truthfulness of the above thoughts we leave to the court. So, the scene is taken as the basis, where the main character leaning on, presumably, a standard industrial barrel of oil. The steel cylinder divides the rings into three equal parts, and therefore, knowing the usual size of such a container, the growth of the protagonist is about 4 feet and 6 inches. Pretty funny observation. If so, of course.

Of course, the story of Jack Bin on a successful full -length cartoon does not end. Ahead of him was waiting for a launched series, who lived only two episodes, which did not receive special popularity a mobile game, and a channel on YouTube approaching a million subscribers.

We will be honest, to date, a steep killer has gloomed its former glory. However, we hope that soon everything will change. Jack Bin again risen from the thermonuclear ash of forgotness, let him rush up to the sky of adorns. And the beard and I will be able to feel a freshly baked coward and shoot plenty of the bandits terrorizing the grocery world.
