Hello explores changes in two people’s working lives: a Mexican trash picker who separates and collects recyclable materials from landfills to sell by the kilo, and a German freelance computer-animation designer working for the advertising industry in Berlin. The double interview is controlled and manipulated by a computer-generated severed hand which Maria describes as an object once discovered in the trash while working in the violent northern town of Mexicali. This CGI hand was in turn produced by Max, who was born with no arms, and sought refuge in computer-imaging as a means to operate and manipulate a digital reality.

Set during the early part of his reign, Ivan faces betrayal from the aristocracy and even his closest friends as he seeks to unite the Russian people.

The second part was completed but not released for a decade after Eisenstein's death and a change of heart in the USSR government toward his work; the third part was only in its earliest stage of filming when shooting was stopped altogether.

This is from the Astroliner film rides. You go to this ride called the Astroliner, you take a seat, buckle up, and keep your eyes on the screen and the ride moves along with the film. There was Monster Planet and Bermuda Triangle. Stanley M. Strawn did both of these films. Also, keep your eyes peeled for two cameos from two stop-motion movies that the late, but great, David Allen worked on.
