Many motion control houses here in Chicago died a long time ago. They used to be bastions of Chicago post.
If it was called Pan and Zoom it would suddenly be pro? Who cares what it’s called? It does a better job than fcp7s shitty ease keyframing.

As someone who spent some of his formative work years, (1974 -77) doing mostly animation on stills for a variety of animation and design houses, I too get highly annoyed at calling something the Ken Burns effect. the annoyance has nothing to do with Ken Burns, who’s work I like very much, nor does it reflect any degree of “professionalism” on someone who uses that effect; the anger is addressed to the lack of appreciation of the history of the medium. Most young filmmakers call it the KB effect, but when they do it in front of me they get a quick lesson in film history.

“I adamantly second this. No disrespect to Ken Burns at all, but its akin to saying anything shot with a wide angle lens is Kubrick-like.

Chris,
The Kubrick shot is a wide angle lens pointed at a forehead.

Probably folks used THAT shot before Kubrick — only they didn’t do it in a H-Wood Flick… and catch fame for it

“here we go
my point was to shane saying that the kenburnseffectisconsumer is hogwash ie bullshit
listen to ken tell it like it is its not the ken burns effect so much as a filmaking technique
if you go on shoots im sure youve heard we need more rembrandt or for the follicly challenged you might need a picard light
relax its going to be ok no need to adamantly shove everything down youngsters throats
if it causes them to watch more ken burns documentaries they might actually learn something
all is not lost
a rose is still a rose
now if i could just have your john hancock on this dotted line and initial here and here
punctuation is for the weak
good day

Chris,

“Franz, I think its a regional thing, because here I’m almost certain that the Kubrick shot is a wide angle tracking shot of either the interior of a space station, a once futuristic milk bar, or WWI trenches.
Speaking of which, I’m going to get to go see both Clockwork Orange and Barry Lyndon on the big screen this weekend. They’re using this very old process by which they shoot a powerful light beam through a series of plasticish connected stills. It seems farfetched to me, but it will probably work.

Chris,
Yes, if the region in question is about 1m diameter centered on me.
