One thing I want to do with this mini challenge is to concentrate more on the FX.
The shot list is needed if you are planning to do multiple shots, but if you do only ONE shot you still need to add detailed information on what you intend to do with it.
The shot list is being generated more as a organizational tool.
I hope this clears things up.

To add to the list of the movies: Hellboy, when Sammael dies.
I would love to participate in this comp, though I face a small problem: I don’t have access to a video camera. So if anyone needs to put together a team or willing to share their video footage, I’m all ears 
You know…
That might not be a bad idea.
Any other anime movies besides akira that we could add?

I would have thought that falls into a different catergory, but I guess the idea is to replicate cool effects, so:
[ul]
[li]Naruto (Bug disintegration, but disintegration nonetheless)[/li][li]Dragon Ball Z has a few[/li][li]Hellsing (more vampires)[/li][li]Howls Moving Castle (landscape disintegration: Check out the cool making of documentary on how they did it)[/li][/ul]
I think there are lots of disintegration fx in anime… of my head I can think of:
Trigun (when he become hyper mode or whatever - and blasts away a city)
Gundam 0083 Stardust Memory - GP02 blasts away the entire fleet…
Zoids Chaotic Century - Charged Particle Canon. So much melted metal…
Others to consider:
FF Advent Children also has some scenes, perhaps adaptable? For example, Kadaj and his two flunkies melting away during the rain.
Dropping a cookie into a bowl of milk. The cookie usually disintegrates after a few minutes of intense pain.
GW
Well that one is more of a teleportation effect, and we can do a whole new challenge based on that…

I think it should be a “person” being “disintigrated” by a “device” without that person really wanting to be disintigrated.
Now let’s get on with the next FXWars.
I’m feeling the need to disintigrate my little sister. 
Great suggestions everyone. Unless this speeds up though the title will have to change to Coming in Feburary… 
Heh, after seeing your sig image I imagine she will be De-Rezzed after being hit with a frisbee.
Might as well add Tron to the list.
I am going back to DC next week ( I am on vacation right now), and I promise we will ramp this up.

there is a hot scene in resident evil, where the special-force has to go a white room. and then comes a laser wire and cuts one of them into little boxes. and all the boxes slides on each other and fall down. i loved that effect 
but i have no idea how to do something like that 
edti:
I think this would be another topic
I missunderstood the disintegration thing. lol
Check out the movie “Cube” which has a better variant, much grittier, of that effect in it’s opening scene…
/Z
“13 Ghosts” also has a similar effect, but I don’t think it really falls under the category of disintegration, more like “sliced and diced”.
A long as we are on this topic, the first Underworld movie had this effect (the death of Vicotr by Viktor by Selene) , and now that I think of it, also the Blade II Reaper and the party scene in Ghost Ship.

Whee! For some reason I read the thread title as the 7th of January… so I got all confused.
