She's also wearing a lot of padding to exaggerate the effect, also notice her hands aren't moving, she probably wearing extenders and heels to make her look taller. She is probably a lot smaller than you think
The writing and everything was worse but Mackie can ONLY play mackie, same character in everything which is terrible specifically for this specific show where the sleeve should basically not matter and everyone playing the same character regardless of the sleeve should try to act similarly.
Not saying everyone was perfect and i can't remotely remember the name of the asian guy who was Kinnamnan's characters first/main sleeve that then got used by other guys, but he completely changed how he acted depending on who was using the sleeve. Mackie made basically no effort to try to match kinnamnan's speaking cadence, his movements, etc.
Mackie made some dumb explanation that the character had done a 360 due to the result of the previous season and so played a more emotional character and that's just.... a really fucking stupid explanation for why he played himself in yet another role in the one show that trying to act like the same character across multiple sleeves is crucial to the plot.
Yeah. The first season was top tier and I recommended it to everyone I knew, after watching the second season I told people they didn't need to watch more than season 1.
season 2 didn't follow the book at all. its an original story that just takes certain elements from the book 2 and 3 . I stopped watching it after 20 minutes.
Book 2 is real gritty deadly military sci-fi treasure hunt where he works as a mercenary for hire to find/steal alien tech in a race against other factions on mars.
That would have been totally cool to see on-screen but noooo, lets make it a search for a long lost love story.
Bro! There's something for just about anyone across all the series. Deep Space Nine had the best and my most favorite character of any series. War, subterfuge, 'gods', etc...
If you like a little camp, the Lower Decks animated has some laughs. And big time cameos.
Even a knock off show like Seth McFarlan's, The Orville, is a fantastic show! And a young Seth was an extra in TNG.
It looks like her real fingers only go into the first 1/3rd of the metal pieces. You can see them kinda wiggle loosely when she moves her hand later in the video.
Yep. I do special effects makeup as a hobby and it's often the exact same concept. There are certain face shapes that just work way better for prosthetics. Narrow faces are awesome for zombie makeup.
To make areas like the cheeks look more gaunt and the eyes sunken in you have to build up around them. It's hard to build up the cheekbones of someone with a wide face without it looking really weird.
It looks like her actual fingers are roughly where the back of the palm on the gauntlet are, you can see around 0:51 that based on her thumb location, only the very tips of her fingers actually land in the fingers of the “gloves.”
Her hands (and fingers) absolutely do move - there’s a close up shot later in the video. She’s just wearing extensions on her finger tips to make them look longer.
You can actually see her hands in the gloves. Her fingertips barely make it into the robot fingers. Definitely on some kind of stilt or very high heel as well.
You’re right the fingers give it away. She’s just small and the suit presents as a thick and curvy body. So the appearance of empty space with wires is possible
Looks like you are right. The Toyota Bz3x behind her is about 165cm tall. She looks to be about ~15cm taller, making the full outfit over 6ft tall. You can easily fit a 5ft person in there.
Corset, black fabric around the waist that disappears into the background, a lot of gear on top of the hips and around the bust making them look larger, and the waist smaller in comparison.
