WAKANDA FOREVER!!!!
The problem with CGI is that you only notice it when it's bad
Wow I never heard something accurate when it comes to cgi I 100% agree with u
That's SOO true
true, and black panther sucked black balls lol
*Just like Salt in food*
Behizy guy don’t lie green lanterns was better than what this movie produced it the final fight looked like a Mobil phone everyone on the theater cringed because of it during the final fight
Iron man 1 CGI still surprises me to this day
pen art same!
Why
it was extremely realistic and it was also made in 2005. the arc reactor, suit, flying scenes over the desert, etc, were all very well done for CGI in that time
Jon Favreau kinda sticked to practical effects rather than using CGI for everything.
@@fionali4453 The movie is form 2008 and was filmed in 2007
Marvel's team are masters at roto-cg. It's crazy that characters like Spider-Man barely even have to wear practical costumes anymore.
it's usually done in India.
@@bando-od7yt Canada too
This was my favorite animated movie of the year! Maybe they'll make a live action version one day.
the tunnel part was worst
BuT iSn'T iT aLrEaDy LiVe AcTiOn
Random idiot: “Durrrr, but isn’t it walready live action... duhhhhh...” XD
YeSh It Is
@@kricojed9657 R/wOoSH
The CGI in that final battle was horrendous, but everything else was great. Shoutout to them for making Wakanda look like a real place
The name wakanda is a real village in Uganda.
@@dumebiafran1180 pretty sure it isnt full of skyscrapers
@@spencerleo5126 I know, I was talking about the name.
MrGNugget apperantly the ending scene was bad because the studio was running short on time and they had to finish it in 2 weeks so they had to make all the last fight scene in 2 weeks
@@ghostyy6081 Well actually, they had 6 weeks. But thats still a very short amount of time to animate a fight.
"We ended up doing full CG replacements for the actors"
well that explains why the actions scene sometimes looked like a video game
How can someone dislike this video? This is absolutely amazing and must’ve taken forever to get it just right. My hats off to the folks that spent many a sleepless nights to accomplish such amazing VFX. Thank you! 🙌🏾
If CG is good you don't notice it. Sometimes it's good. Sometimes it's not. Either way it does make me slightly sad when I find out that almost nothing in a scene is real.
This 'n That Studio That's just normal in every kind of movies even Ikeas Catalogue is 80% cgi
waterside Wakanda, MD
yeah bro nothing real.like 90 % movie is cg.
If you want to know amazing cgi. Wolf of wall street has some and you would never have known! Board walk empire..,etc
LOL People are definitely going overboard saying the cgi in Black panther is bad.
“I neva Freez”
G4RT except he was frozen when he was in coma
Frrreeeeze. Do u no da way?
JurgenCutters that is a dead meme dont say it again
Plasma Dragon well, Black Panther started it..
JurgenCutters no it didnt...
R.I.P CHADWICK😭 WE WILL MISS YOU, WAKANDA FOREVER!✊🏽💔
I had the pleasure of having Daryl as my animation supervisor on a previous movie and he’s awesome, both as a person and as a leader.
Wanted to see if this was legit so searched you up on IMBd and If that list is accurate, impressive resume.
@@joshuajoe1419 Thanks Joshua!
When a movie uses that much CGI, you might as well call it an animated movie lol
And I agree with sam Olive: "TBH as good as the movie was, special effects and CGI wasn't the one of it's highlights."
Balta Bueno EX or they can call it what they want because your opinion is meaningless and insignificant
special effects made the entire movie. the plot wasnt great, acting was decent, but the CG made it special.
A lot of the movie was CGI you just noticed the bad CGI.
I haven't seen the movie yet (I don't like movie theaters) but the cgi they highlight in this video is pretty bad. At 2:06 Chadwick Boseman's head wasn't properly aligned with the cgi body. You can see his head shifting right before it gets covered by his mask. 3:19 the suit cgi just looks really low budget. It reminds me of the power rangers show when they morph into their suits.
Greek Panda well then your opinion is meaningless and insignificant
This looks hard
That's what she said.
As a 3D student, it is.
Yup, but the pay off earns millions of dollars for them
Dame Dollar not really, animators don’t make too much compared to what others earn in the production of these movies earn.
coffee keeps me going oh what I was referring to the whole production and cast of the movie when I said that, not only animators. But I wouldn’t lie, I would expect that animators get atleast a million dollars.
It was uneeded to animate his costume 90% of the time. He looked 1000x better in Civil War and that ending fight scene was unacceptable
Fax
DryAssChicken I agree. In civil war he had a real suit. I also wish the final fight between them was like Winter Soldier
I wouldn’t say unacceptable but it looked weird, tho the choreography was really nice
I mean, they said in this video why most of the suit was CGI
His Civil War costume was easily the best
Everyone watching: "Oh, cool! That's how they did that"
Also Everyone: " I still dont understand what they're doing"
"We ended up doing full CG replacements for the actors"
Yeah. We could tell.
It wasn't as good as it could be is what's wrong. It looks good, yes, but it's easy to tell where full CG is. I can almost always tell which scenes have full CG Iron Man armor layered over RDJ's body, and it pulls you out of the movie.
Cartonz Proz marvel movies don’t usually do that. It shows how much this was just a political piece of crap
I couldn’t.
Meesa Bombad Warrior It may have been a reason to mainly have black characters, but it was still great. They didn't focus on the fact that they weren't white males *cough cough Ghostbusters*.
Draco Safarius isn't that the same with many fiction movies I mean we can all tell which is CGI. Why using that to discredit this movie
The CGI in the third act looked like two people made of rubber fighting in a PS2 cutscene.
No PS3 cutscene.
PS2 looks way way worse.
Goff Cool Yeah, that's fair.
Edit: Not being sarcastic, I agree with you.
Sweet. Glad we can agree on something. Have a nice day.
Goff Cool Same to you.
Tyler Galinanes blade 2 gummi physics
I don’t think people truly see how amazing this is and how much time and effort these people take to build these up, I honestly applaud anybody behind this, of. It’s not gonna look totally real because it’s NOT but it’s still nothing short of amazing.., Hats off too them the people who don’t get glorified or seen 🤞🏿
Much of the cgi of black panther was exaggerated, the killmonger and t challa fight scene locked like video game
Way way worse i cringe just thinking about it baaarf
This is the fault of CGI
Majority of the people hating on cgi are white
That scene was rushed into the film and was done because the original scene that was mostly SFX failed to meet film standards while the CGI scene was an improvement despite it's flaws.
χσνєятιмєχ wtf Does race have to do with anything u fuckhead racist
I wish they had used a mix of practical effects and CGI because it looked so weird during the last fight
Practical with CGI touch ups is almost always a better look, unless animators go balls to the wall to make it match real life quality.
WAYYY too much CGI in the movie, good movie but the best parts were without CGI like the fights at the waterfall
Youdo realize the WHOLE background for all the waterfall scenes is CGI right?
Dizyland r/woosh
Basically everything in the movie is CGI, Wakanda isn't a real place you know.
Oh Yeah? Tell that to the CG animated Raccoon whom got no backlash. Or the taking tree!
The waterfall fight had a tonne of CGI
when you have beautiful practical suits why don't you use them and build the scenes around the suits instead of giving my eyes an aneurysm. it would have cost less as well.
Because they break. Vibranium doesn't exist in the real world. Not yet, anyways.
2:44 when your classmates hear you got chewing-gums
CGI was below usual Marvel standards in my opinion.
GenStudios sometimes I think the older iron man suits look way better than the full cg ones in Infinity War ugh
Mister Bushido iron man always was cgi
el Papacito not before Disney bought Marvel. Ironman 1 suit was a physical one
No it wasn't. They made a physical suit of the Mark 2 for lighting reference but what you see in the film is CG.
Yeah, all of the heroes with skin tight suits in Marvel's movies have been weirdly unconvincing. For instance, Spider-Man's appearance in Civil War was remarkably bad. Ant-Man was somehow done better, though. And I feel like (at least for its time) Tobey Maguire's CGI Spider-Man was way more convincing, particularly in the face.
The train fight scene cgi was awful, everything else was pretty amazing though, those rhinos were dope
Janthdanl you have a very bad taste of movies then my friend.
Xman Xtreme Given that a lot more people liked it than disliked it, id say you have the bad taste.
SSTWELVE those rhinos were really badly made. And economic success does not equals a good movie. Ever heard of the Transformers saga? Fast and Furious?
Yeah like the movie itself was good but it is true that the CGI was definitely bad. All of the professional reviews mentioned the bad CG
a - muse - me I think you mean financial success. The movie was positively received by critics and audiences alike. But I do agree that the CGI in the train scene and the Rhinos was really poor. But the movie was still amazing in my opinion.
*Rest In Peace Chadwick.*
I just realised Kilmonger changed his hair further in the movie,so like who did his hair in Wakanda? 😂😂😂
SALT hey when you’re about to take over the world, you gotta look good!
Well, I guess Erik had one of th e servants cornrow his dreadlocks for hin
He was king for a bit so he had resources.
Guy should have spent some more time on those rhinos, the final fight between Black Panther and Kill Monger, and background at the challenge pool.
Andrew Wadsworth why
Because it lacked weight/was noticeably CGI. Rest of the movie was great.
I get most CGI but it baffles me why they feel the need to resize the heads of the actors to make them look smaller when the helmets are on. I know bobblehead effect but still after you notice it, its almost unseeable.
Anybody else who isn’t bugged by the CGI?
I'm not
I think it was great? People need to chillax
ME! I didn't see nothing wrong with the movie. I really enjoyed it.
Same
IKR I HATE PPL sometimes
Wow, really admire the dedication and effort these guys put to bring this film to life. Great job👏👏👏
Its so awesome that they can make this!
These animators deserve so much more recognition than they get
No they don't. The CGI was absolute trash in this film.
They should be fired for how cheap and bad it looks.
Goff Cool MORON CG is extremly hard to get into and one of the most exhausting jobs (having one or two Burnouts is normal)... The end quality is dependent on the time you reiterate on a project and that's the fault of the Budget not the 3d artist
Goff Cool big facts
Haha people who criticize it have no idea how difficult VFX are nor what goes in to them.
To do what they did on a deadline? They deserve a ton of credit for it even looking this good. Movie had to come out when it did before infinity war. I'm sure the animators would have loved more time. They did a great job.
1:35 why do they have a block with some fire on it? what is it for? as reference of the scale of the fire?
Lensbreak Studios yes
I’m two years late to replying but my guess would be lighting reference for the digital fire and maybe wind direction?
We don't question things
Black Panther is one of those movies that is so good it just keeps getting better the more you learn about it.
Tbh I don’t think the CGI on most vehicle scenes were done correctly with shadows and textures :) but great film overall
Exactly movie was great overall but the terrible cgi kinda ruined the flow of the movie
I love the movie but I agree with you especially with the Space Bugatti at the last scene.
That's really cool
"Wakanda Forever!"
Wired.....I LOVE that you are doing these types of videos. Please don’t stop 🙌
Jesus! Imagine how boring movies would be without editing or animation effects
what about tenet
I'm guessing the last battle was made by the same people behind Resident Evil 1.
The cgi was pretty good until the train fight, that was pretty bad
The visual effects for this movie was on a whole another level😍💞🔥🔥🔥
This visual artists are the one who brightens the movie in our hearts
This was sooooooo dope
nope
Jamie Ross Yes.
Jamie Ross It's his opinion. So stfu please
yeah,I really wanna buy this new Black Panther game for my PS3
Worst part of the movie was the CGI, that tunnel fight was atrocious.
Just Deion you cant do much better can you?
Actually I can, just ask your mom
Max Playz saying someone cant criticize something just because said person cant do better is invalid
Just Deion You are right . Cgi were horrible .
Yes. It was terrible. The live action fights look cool and i love the choreography in the waterfall scenes. But when the black panther is in costume its terrible. Especially seeing how good it looked in civil war. His movements especially feel like theres no weight to them. Theyre supposed to have catlike movements but they end up feeiling weightless. Such a shame cuz its a really good movie.
Love this!!! Movie production teams should get more recognition like this
I loved watching this and I loved the film! Really inspiring video for someone like me learning CGI
Why does Black Panther even need to be animated? I can understand some scenes where he’s jumping or getting knocked back but when he’s just walking or running? I hope they improve on the sequel.
The Selchies There won't be a sequel.
This film made a billion dollars there will definitely be a sequel, use your brain frank
yeah true, I think its kinda sad how much people rely on CGI these days ...
Johnny Boy You are so out of line and ignorant ,check yourself. I don't know why or who told you it was ok to say the N word but its not. You're disgusting and Im reporting you.
A lot of it needs to be replaced because its difficult to create a costume that looks as technologically advanced as wakandan tech. Seams and wrinkles is a big issue. Also, his suit stores kinetic energy which is difficult to visually show that in real life.
While I loved BP, there were multiple scenes where the CGI looked pretty fake. I think this Effects House, was overwhelmed after Marvel decided to go with CGI suits for BP and Killmonger.
Jock McBile
This is absolutely amazing!
VFX breakdowns are the best!!
1:25 The audience already knew he was alive.
WHAT ADOOOOSE
They are my crocs!
Three years later:
Shuri: do u no de wae
Kill me
Those are my T’Chanclas!
seasong literally the worst, most embarrassing joke in the entire film.
Amazing movie... Epic effects... Just... Wow!
Congratulations to everyone involved.
Incredible job....thumbs up❤
I love all the people saying “the cgi was terrible” like why don’t you do cgi with hundreds of small pieces and see how it turns out.. not everything turns out perfect and with all the cgi they had to do they can’t get every detail like other movies. You come here and say they do a terrible job at their passion. How would you feel if someone did that to you.
Surge I would take there criticism and try to add improvements in myself instead of sitting here whining about it on the internet.
Shazasterman saying “the cgi was trash” is not criticism that is just insult
WarioGiant exactly
And they say DC uses a lot of CGI.... Cgi is necessary in superhero movies...
I meant the 2 universes... MCU and DCEU genius!! Understand the comment first, KID!
SHAAN thought it was pretty obvious you meant dceu but not everyone is smart
It is VERY necessary, wtf do you mean?
Also yes DC (DCEU) does use a lot of CGI. Take a look at many of their recent villains.
As expected, starting doing mother father... Haha.. so manly of you UFC MAN :D :D
I have a lot of respect for the time they put to make a film this extraordinary. Must be really hard
4:11 "That involves a lot of photography of them both with and without their suits on."
Go on...
Now, coming back to this video, I realized why a lot of the fights with tchalla had to be fully CG sometimes... and it makes me sad... rest in power King Chadwick Boseman🖤🌹
So this is how they messed up the VFX in the third act. Interesting!
The didn't have much time to render
8:37 omg I love that chant
My favorite scenes were killmonger's clothes tearing off and suit under and most fight scenes ...I was so excited the second time I went to watch...still love it when I see it...
If you watch Black Panther then watch civil war. You can see in civil war all the BP movement looks more believable.
Dont get me wrong this CG is remarkable, some scene i cant really see the difference. But i just prefer BP movement in civil war.
See, what you said is your opinion, which is cool. Everyone else is assuming things they know nothing about.
DNTwtch THSchnnl um what are you talking about? The movements in black panther are very stiff and unrealistic, while in CW, it wasn’t, as they didn’t use CGI.
@@winnywinnarts I'm saying that that's not true. The Russo Brothers' cut-y style allowed for it not to be so obvious, but in all the movies Black Panther has been in, his suit is CGI almost 100% of the time. Check out some of the VFX breakdowns for Civil War and Black Panther to see what I mean.
@@user-gk7nr6vn7g they actually used the actor (not sure if stunt) with a crappy BP suit and just traced with CGI so that's why CW had more believable movement.
I am disappointed in the Infinity War... Where was the Rhinos???
ZDEyE no border tribe , no w'akabi ...so no rhino , makes sense now?
rhino now facing extinction #saveearth
did you really wanna see animals die?? of course theyre fake but it would've been still sad
I mean, those were pretty poorly animated tbh.
Nithin Prasad there was a border tribe in infinity war. Who do you think the guys with the cloth shields standing behind t'challa was?
amazing job guys GREAT :)
Very cool, I like these kind of videos, because vfx needs a bit of public love. Very cool Wired!
Hopefully they can improve on its CGI for the next sequel because this movie had so much going for it.
Some of the visuals were bad tho
Shady Rabbit Most*
Kadeem The Dream Get help please.
The difference between good artist and artist not that good is whether they make the artwork come to life.
Good job!
Watching this one year after the passing of Chadwick Boseman certainly hits different, You will be missed. Rest In Peace Chadwick
The only thing I did not like with this film was the end animations. Looked to plastic and fake for a big budget movie. Otherwise it was okey :)
The effects of the specific company are usually stellar. My only explanation was that they used most of their members in Infinity War, and they were left with the bare minimum to finish this film.
The killmonger suit forming CGI was amazing.
Bro amazing visual effects 👏
whose here after his death

Respect.
Amazing job
may you rest in peace, you're a legend chadwick
The overall CGI was great I think, just the last battle in some cave with trains were suck.
Dope!
who hurt you
3:00
At this moment, and few others, it looked so much like an animate movie.
I think there is still lot of progress to make in this field.
may his soul rest in peace 😥😥❤❤
some of the cg in this looked really bad. like videogame render bad. studios need to try to do as much physically as possible
Either the CGI looks video-game level bad or video-games has improved incredibly in graphical fidelity over the past several years.
@@PrabhablyAGoodUA-camr well there is a photorealistic expectation with modern big budget movies. with games we still can ignore a lot of things because it's a game. I think we are still 10-20 years off truly photorealistic gaming.
I do think some CG can look bad because we don't have anything to relate to. Impossible camera movements and physical things that don't exist in real life can make CGI look bad even if the CG itself is well done.
What is more expensive CG or really doing,
do it better
@@justrandom5012 I'd like to see you do it better
Now I know exactly who to blame. Thanks wired.
This is my favorite animated film
Takes alot of EFFORT
👏👏💕💕
cgi people: we ended up putting full on cgi replacement.
audience : yeah we noticed
Ps2 graphics at 3:11
Literally the worst CGI in MCU
HA-R00N FA-HA wrongo
find me a ps2 game that looks as good i dare you
Final Fantasy on ps2 has cutscenes that look better than that.
Final Fantasty Cinematics and Cutscenes look better than some movies tbh
Goulactic dared internet people so he had it coming.
Visual Effects in Black Panther are incredible... good job Daryl Sawchuk
very good, I realize a fault in 7:37 left there are rocks with grass the scene cuts and back and the grass disappears and only the most visible stones remain
Huh, the only CGI that I found really obvious while watching it were the Rhinos. They did a fantastic job by making everything look so real.
I hope Black Panther 2 has better CGI. I guess they put the major budget in Infinity War.
It’s come a long way since my time in computer graphics....it’s really a case of guessing if it’s real or not, it’s that good at deceiving our eyes....long live the graphics pen!!👍🏼😊
i feel like in a movie like this, no actor can be nominated best actor
Haven't seen it yet but awesome breakdown 😍
Just came for the comments to see if anyone else thought the CG was trash.
It wasnt all trash. 3d compositing is some scenes felt cheap and old time like people didnt fit into the scene. Like those fights on waterfalls
Same
R u a dc fan
yeah so dumb XD
Naah,If u can make it better,say its trush
You guys are the true heroes of the movies , because that doesn’t look easy
These guys are the real mvps
