Silent Shadow of the Bat-Man

By Miss Cellania in Film, Video Clips on Aug 7, 2008 at 9:35 am

A 12 minute short depicting the origin of “The Bat-Man” and introducing his amazing skills and abilities… Bob Kane and Bill Finger drew on a lot of silent films to create Batman, and I’ve always wanted to give the story a try using silent film techniques. What with that whole copyright/waste of time thing, you’ll have to settle for this collage. Here are the original influences re-arranged to tell Bruce Wayne’s story and his crusade against crime.

A quick two day collage by Andre Perkowski. Drone music by Palker & Perkowski, an outtake from “The Vampire’s Tomb” sessions.

So much win!

I’ve been ridiculously unproductive today due to neatorama and a power outage.

Mainly neatorama, but i’m placing most of the blame on the power outage :3

Muahahahaha!

Imagine if you actually had to live in the 20s when films of someone in a chair were considered pretty gripping. You kids today with your movies and your discotheques.

These were the longest minutes of your life? What kind of action-packed thrill a minute internet-filled life must you be leading if a fun little piece like this is taking you away from it? And why harsh your buzz by bothering to complain about it? What a killjoy.

this 4 movies are just a very well made fake!!!
its a mix up from “the golem”, “the man who laughs”, “the bat” and more.
but its disturbing how perfect the taken pictures fits on the batman storyline!
watch “The Bat” from 1926 on YouTube. Youl find a lot of paralells to batman. but fact is that the first batman apears 1939 on film an one or two years erlier in comic.

but in my eyes finger and kane where very inspired by “The Bat”
