A team which recreates popular movies as 8-bit video games is attracting millions of views on YouTube.<\/p>\n
David Dutton from California makes the “old school” arcade-style films for film collective Cinefix.<\/p>\n
His four minute version of 2001 Japanese anime movie Spirited Away has attracted nearly 1m views since it was uploaded last month.<\/p>\n
Other films to get an “old school” makeover include Titanic, The Avengers and\u00a0Frozen.<\/p>\n
Mr Dutton uses off-the-shelf software Adobe Photoshop and editing software After FX to create the films.<\/p>\n
His brother Henry writes the distinctive music and the sound is edited in Adobe Premiere.<\/p>\n
“We grew up playing video games in the 80s,” said Mr Dutton, who used to direct music videos.<\/p>\n
“But we had no background in animation.”<\/p>\n
