naija action film (preview)

As someone commented, this may have been a partially staged incident by the "protest fleet." However, I suspect the aim of their protest was only to approach the blockade and then allow themselves to be turned away by overwhelming Israeli naval forces. I don't think any of the protesters planned to be boarded in international waters and have 10 of their group killed and some 30 more wounded.
By boarding an unarmed vessel, belonging to a "friendly nation," in international waters, the Israeli military committed a violation of international law. It is even arguable that the people on the one ship who resisted the boarding party of commandos had every right to defend themselves from an illegal seizure of their vessel.
Israel has clearly "screwed the pooch" on this one, and I suspect there will be serious consequences to follow!

Princek12:

Any person can purport to justify their actions with religion, for you cannot prevent anyone from speaking their opinion, even when it is a false opinion. That being said, the issue is not whether there are evil doers who perpetrate their wicked ways under the pretext of any religion, say Islam or Christianity, but the issue is whether there is a Biblical or Koranic basis for justifying such heinous acts?

There is no Biblical basis for perpetrating any heinous acts, especially in the New Testament, where such evil behaviors are unequivocally repudiated. The Holy Koran, on the other hand, has passages under which an evildoer can perpetrate and justify his heinous acts, and the Koran explicitly sanctions the use of violence, as in Jihad, to defend Islam. Christianity, while strikingly different from Islam, provides that vengeance should be left to God, and that if the enemy slaps you on the right cheek, turn the left cheek to the enemy so that he can slap you again. Christianity is a religion of peace. As a matter of fact, one of the cardinal principles that underlies the Christian faith and that which is obvious in the Ten Commandments is thou shall not kill. Can the same be said of the Quran? I challenge any Muslim to defend with Koranic passages.

Because of the Koran's sanction of violence, it is axiomatic that terrorists can speak of the evil actions against a backdrop of an AK-47 assault rifle side by side with the Holy Koran, and recite verses from the Koran before they embark on killing innocent people, especially suicide bombers. Likewise, the terrorists who beheaded an American journalist in Iraq recited verses from the Koran before and during the beheading process. This is the corollary of he Koran's sanction of violence.

really? then u must not know ur bible then. there is a biblical basis for perpetrating any act. abi how do u think d calabar(abi na akwa ibom) terrorist justified his act

@frosbel, u really need to shut d hell up. ur so evidently full of hate. bloody hypocrite

hi riff raff where r u based and can i have ur email addy? i've got questions i wanna ask u

hmmmmm very interesting thread. couldnt help but to read from first to last page. from wot i can gather here -pls correct me if i'm wrong- it seems that:

1. the religionists cant prove d existence of thier different Gods, they just believe dat he/it/she does exist
2. the atheist cant prove that any form of god does not exist. they see it as if he/it/she does, show/prove urself. in d absence of doing dat dont blame me for not believing in u

hi ike, will you be interested in working with an experienced vfx artist on a freelance basis? if so let me have ur email addy so i can send u my cv and links to some of my portfolio. thank you.

tru talk kemji.
@bilie, y dont u put ur graphix where ur mouth -or keyboard in dis case- is, lets see ur cinema4d output

@kemji, wit those lips he definately looks african

my own 2 cents: i kno u said u r looking to stylize ur character, but methinks his skin texture is too flat (esp from his neck downwards). if u look at d human skin u'll notice a lot of hues and variations from d original color (brown, black or woteva). adding some color variations will definately make ur character more interesting. rememba stylizing is an exageration of reality.

k. get wot u r saying but wot u r seeing is a reduced resolution dats y. d original file is 8k large. when printed out all texts r huge and very readable. like i said i had no artistic input on original idea. client wants it dis way and seeing as he's paying d bills, wot clients wants, is wot client gets. thanks for d tips tho. much appreciated.

which of d fonts is small? d one on d ship? or d one one d flag itself? cheers

its not a real image. its all 3d xcept d brushes of course . dis was a job where d client already knew wot he wanted so i didnt really have any artistic input in d original idea. but d pay was good tho, so i'm not complaining

always happy to clear tings up. well u kno how a country has its own flag? this is d same, xcept its for a clients family(tribe). the logo is to b used on d flag

its a family flag.

logo design for flag

@kemji, r u going for realistic or stylized skin texture?

@candy, well i'm a common man from d streets and i do care for movies like dis and hopefully even better. dis looks like a breath of fresh air. kudos to d director.

thanx osasp. used houdini for d blast and composited into d clip with afterfx
