      Honestly as a huge fan of practical effects, like the majestic armies in Waterloo could never be captured with just cg armies..it's all about knowing when to use CG. Dunkirk is the best example, I love Nolan and he's dedication to practical, but holy crap it was jarring having 20 dudes represent 100,000s of troops, 3 planes to represent thousands..and a modern day empty Dunkirk instead of a bombed out husk haha, that drama Atonement captured the event better in one scene. Blending the two is how it's done

    I worked on the first Harry potter film doing model making, and the thing that blew my mind more than anything were the matte painters.

Anything over that and they looked like a printed photo. Really amazing.

      @@maxhydekyle2425 well, it worked in a pretty static setup where Luke didn't move or emote too much. That is where it can indeed look perfect. But you can see how they cut away from him speaking a lot and instead showed reaction shots of Grogu and Asohka. Clearly intentional so they don't have to show facial expressions and precise lip movements that would have been harder to pull off realisticly. They also kept the camera at a greater distance for most of the shots and had a very deliberate lighting setup, that would also hide some imperfections. It is undeniably a great improvement and best in class effect shot though. However I think we are still a long way from being able to do a lead character for an entire movie/show.

Even before the CGI era there were a lot of car stunts in movies that in real life would be impossible and the cars will be wrecked.

      @NEOREV_MUSIC 2 роки тому +1

      @@dethmaul The second season speeds up because the creator Dan Knauf explained how he treats Carnivále like a trilogy of books, with 2 seasons per book. He had 6 seasons planned from the start. We technically only got the first book, and that is why the second season picks up like it does, mimicking the way the final half of a book picks up speed until its climax. He didn't change anything with the second season to try and fit in answers, but he did cut some characters like the Twins and Gecko. He initially had written 16 episodes for season 2, but chose to cut it down to 12 because he wanted the season to move quicker. He discovered it was canceled after season 2 was already wrapped. The next 4 seasons would've covered about 15 years until the explosion of the atom bomb. The creator has spoken out and gave us some tidbits about the future. So, please, avoid the next bit below if you haven't finished watching the show.
      The third season would've been 5 years later and the Carnivále disbanded. You would discover that Jonesy actually survived the gunshot at the end of season 2 and returns to playing baseball with Libby. Season 3 would've opened up with Brother Justin giving a sermon to his followers, but you can see he is clearly injured and not his full self. That's because the anointed blade stabbed in his chest broke off and is still lodged near his heart. Sofie was able to revive him, but unable to remove the blade shard. We will also see that Sofie is there by his side watching the sermon and that's when they reveal... Sofie with a baby. Whose baby is this? Well, we would spend the next seasons discoving that. Brother Justin would also have this crazy huge cathedral built on his plot of land with his speeches being broadcasted all over the airwaves and loads of followers. He would have this massive office with depictions of hell paint on its walls. Ben would be recovering from his fight with battle and become like a Management figure trying to find out more to the prophecy and building his powers. He would eventually have to try and reunite the Carnivále in order to fight against Brother Justin. Creator Dan Knauf also said that we saw the final scene of Carnivále somewhere within the two seasons we got. I also highly suggest reading Knauf's Carnivále Pitch Document and AV Club's article "Daniel Knauf Tells Us His Plan For The End Of Carnivàle."
      Back when it was canceled, HBO offered a movie to close up things, but Knauf refused as he had 15 years worth of story left to tell and did not want to ruin it by rushing it as a movie. Knauf was trying to push HBO to go to Comic Con with it back then, before Comic Con was as popular as it is today. But HBO would fight him about these things. He got the vibe that HBO didn't know how to market the show. Knauf eventually did some work with Marvel and Marvel wanted to continue Carnivále as a graphic novel, but HBO blocked that. Sadly, HBO owns the rights. Knauf kept hope that HBO would allow him to finish it. It's shame because viewership numbers were trending back upward during season 2 with the finale even beating Deadwood.

      I think because it's animated and not static that it's done practical and not some CG after effect. It all has a story-telling purpose here, show-don't-tell, so everything is planned, no happy accidents.
      And I just can't imagine the art department going through all that set-up and then an art director going "Nah, forget it, we'll do it in post" at that point. It would be completely illogical, to the point I'd question the person's qualifications lol. Using a puppet is obvious.

    For the shadow on the clouds in Hook... surely it would have been easier to have a physical shadow of Robin William's shape being cast onto the cotton wool as the go-motion was captured? If you look, the shadow is always static when it's shown. When Robin flips over, the clouds break away and we don't see a shadow, and then the clouds come back after he's flipped onto his back and is static once again...
    It seems unlikely that they would projection map his blue screen element onto the clouds, when the clouds were physical, not cg...

    Even though the car is CGI, there's another major issue with the scene of it going over Bond in that the shot at 7:49 has Daniel diving behind a literal vertical wall of concrete, so in the next shot, the car's wheel somehow goes up and over that small wall without a single problem. In reality, the right side of the front bumper would have smashed into it, causing the stone to break and fall all over Daniel and push the vehicle to the left from the impact. So, if it was a real car, a small ramp would have been placed behind the wall to cause the jump instead of the expected smash.

    Y'all should consider reviewing Final Fantasy 8's cutscenes. That might be more of an animators react, but might also be interesting to talk about the difference in technology since then. I think it's important as a stepping stone to good animation in video games, and the industry beginning to take itself more seriously. If you want to compare some other good PS1 era cutscenes, Chrono Cross had a great opening CG, Digimon World 3 had a great opening CG, Legend of Dragoon was full of amazing cutscenes, all home runs. Also possibly interesting to point out that the cutscene quality of FF8, CC, DW3 and LoD are all pretty close, but Square's games have wildly better in-game graphics. Final Fantasy 9 is also a fascinating contrast with Final Fantasy 8, as it was -super- cartoony and stylistic and hated for it, but still some of the best cutscenes the franchise has ever delivered. The original Final Fantasy 7 is also an interesting contrast because they're starting to do some really interesting cinematography (the intro with the train is a great example) but they're clearly struggling with the jump from 2D to 3D and the limitations at the time.

    So, what I think is happening with the clouds is actually a real cast shadow on the cotton balls.
    Notice how Robin stays in one static position, then suddenly when he rotates and there would need to be movement from the shadow there's a break in the clouds, then the next shadow of him having his hands behind his head is shown on the next set of clouds.
    So what I think they did is have two puppets or silhouettes that are a general human shape, one with it's arms straight forward, and the next hands behind the head, and when they're filming the 'go-motion' they just have those puppets in front of their main lighting for the scene. When he rotates, they switch to the second puppet and do the next pass with the next set of clouds.

    You guys need to cover ‘The Last Starfighter’ … the first movie that used cgi to represent a real world object. Also, one of the VFx supervisors was Jim Rygiel … who went on to vfx supervise The Lord of Rings Trilogy and won an Oscar. You should try to get him on your show .. he’s still in the industry …

      One thing I always remember about the vfx is that they apparently had custom miniature lights created in order to properly light the model of the city. Also, in one scene of Dredd's trial, you can see a booger flapping around in Max Von Sydow's nose.

    Oh man, they didn’t say how the peter pan was done on clouds.. while they mentioned noise distortion, i think there’s a touch more to it:
    The shadows seems to match the cloud movement so well, i think it’s practical..
    I think they’ve had Robin Williams perform his cloud dance. They’ve then taken the blue screen element, and turned each frame into a cell (like with cartoon making). Be it transparent background with opaque or translucent Robin, I’m not sure. They could have also altered the edges with a predecessor of noise distortion(could have been manual/practical rather than digitally generated).
    They have then (using go motion) shot the cloud pass, frame by frame, replacing the mask cells for one of, or the only light lighting the clouds.

    One intro you could look at is the one to "Alright on the Night's Cockup Trip" from 1998. It's a British blooper show from the 90s, and the TV title sequence has visual effects that have no right to be as impressive as they are. Tom Scott did a video on it called "The Greatest Title Sequence I've Ever Seen".
