VFX VS CGI VS SFX
There is a debate raging in the film industry. Well, there are multiple debates raging in the film industry, but today we’re focusing on one of them: VFX vs CGI vs SFX. This debate is rooted in confusion over definitions, and CGI fatigue. Certain audiences, and filmmakers, are tired of CGI being used as a creative bandaid, sloppily solving problems in post which allows for laziness on set. In this video, we dive head first into this debate, and find that the answers aren’t as clear-cut as they might seem…
WHAT IS SFX?
First, we look at the oldest of the three categories: SFX, short for special effects. Special effects refer to any elements created on set, also referred to as practical effects. When a filmmaker brags about doing some crazy visual “for real,” this is what they’re referring to. Today, SFX have become coveted, and even fetishized. See any Tom Cruise interview.
WHAT IS VFX?
Now, the second oldest: VFX, or visual effects. These are any effects added to imagery that was captured during production. This can be compositing, green screens, virtual production, motion capture, paint outs, and much more. VFX today are mostly done digitally, but a visual effect can also be executed without a computer. Old compositing techniques with optical printers count as VFX.
Now, here’s where the confusion can occur.
WHAT IS CGI?
CGI, or computer generated imagery, is a type of visual effect. But not all visual effects are CGI. CGI only refers to elements that are created solely using a computer. Seems pretty straightforward, right? The confusion arises from when filmmakers boast that their film didn’t use any CGI. People will quickly look at film’s credits, see all these VFX artists’ names, and claim that the filmmaker is lying. But actually, these VFX artists might be working on other VFX that don’t include CGI.
PRACTICAL VS DIGITAL
So why are more and more filmmakers emphasizing they aren’t using CGI? The answer lies in the evolution of filmmaking over the past 30 years. CG has become more and more dominant. And while this allows for creatives to build worlds never before thought possible, it can also result in less-than-stellar visuals and lazy filmmaking. But this is only when CGI is used poorly- it’s not an indictment of the tool. In the end, CG will always have its place in film. It’s just what that place looks like that may change.

![Ultimate Guide to Camera Movement - Every Camera Movement Technique Explained [The Shot List Ep6]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/IiyBo-qLDeM/mqdefault.jpg)
The most egregious sin when it comes to VFX and CGI is having cutting edge technicians using state-of-the-art technology, yet they are never given the necessary time required to achieve either an incredible effect or invisible effect.
We appreciate all the work these artists do and there so much work to be done these days! But you're right, when given sufficient time and resources, these tools can create real magic.
@@StudioBinder true, but i wonder if you (or i) overlooked the point being made... if team A is given 2/3 of what is needed, and the goal isn't achieved, then team A can't be villified as the reason the production fell short.
great content. many thanks.
@@erock.steady Look at you, trying to make an argument out of NOTHING. Grow up, chiId...
Top Gun is a great example of everyone from studio to Tom lying about CGI. Sure. They shot a lot of ref footage, but 90% was replaced by CGI. Saying there’s no CGI in it while it was more CGI shots than Black Panther is rather disrespectful for artists work on it.
It's an unfortunate situation. The narrative around Top Gun was definitely misleading but it's still a fantastic movie and the process they used was still jaw-dropping, even if it was augmented.
The scene with the jet buzzing the guy on the ground with the dirt flying up, the plane didn't look real. Never seen the movie so I didn't know they were trying to tell the public that the didn't use any.
@@StudioBinder Even you're being a little disingenuous/gentle on them. And that needs to stop, because it propagates the lie. More than augmented, and they, including Tom himself, flat out lied. That's the word you're looking for I think. At least we have Movie Rabbit Hole for the last word on it now. And yes it's a great movie. Even before the vfx reels came out though it was pretty simple. Did anyone in the audience think that the future blackbird scene was any less tense because it's obviously cg? Nope. Is a civilian allowed to fly any jet/fighter? Nope. It's illegal. Therefore... Pretty simple.
They lied you on every corner and yall believed it for the sake of Tom cruse. Only him that flew some of the engines and in a very controlled environment
From what I’ve seen, in the industry rarely actually say “CGI”, or atleast not as generally as the public. Tbh, I’m just tired of hearing people using it to trash on the vfx industry (the industry that includes vfx, cgi and sfx)
For us there is no difference in CGI and VFX. This video is a bit misleading sadly. There is only VFX and SFX. Also when you "only" composite two real plates together its with the help of a Digital tool that will create a final image that is computer generated as blending two images together needs digital effects applied what means you get a digital final frame created by a computer.
@@JohnnyFehrI agree for the most part, although if someone is trying to say that something was created by 3d graphics programs as opposed to being real they'll use the term "cg", not "vfx". I throw around the word compositing or composited a lot for 2d graphics/stock stuff added. Also something people might now know is that "fx" usually refers to physics simulations like smoke or particles, fire, liquids etc, so an fx artist would be someone who specializes in those things.
@@rangerCG thats why its important to educate the terms correctly. For example in Nuke there is a lot done in 3D too even if its just cards projections. Compositing is the same VFX like Modeling or Animation.
So if the "CGI" in a movie is good or bad, we should call it VFX and not CGI.
What if modeling, lighting, animation did an amazing job but comp not. and the audience will say its bad CGI so you blame the wrong one then? its all part of VFX if its made digital. We in VFX itself don't even use the word CGI 😅we do VFX and VFX contains different departments just like SFX.
The industry that really brings us the magic
That's true. Our goal with this video was more for people outside the industry who do use terms like "CGI." We hope it came across that CGI is part of VFX, just like Practical Effects are part of Special Effects.
4:22 How great it must be to be Nolan and candidly say:
"Ok guys, we're going to have some SFX in this scene. A big truck flips end over end, and then lands upside down in the middle of the street"
SFX Super " How are we going to do that?"
Nolan "Well, we're going to get a big truck, flip it end over end, and land it in the middle of the street".
@@jasonbidwell you read my mind. exactly the reply I was about to type.
When you've got a top-tier SFX Supervisor like Chris Corbould, he makes it happen! Check out this other video we did with him a while back: ua-cam.com/video/ZiFZVDFSyGE/v-deo.htmlsi=RvbEiokTvlxxwPfm
@@jasonbidwell Funny because a Nolan fanboy was swearing up and down in the comments section under another video that Nolan never lies in interviews about only using practical effects and only uses little CGI even though Double Negative did replace some practical shots while Nolan still prances around that those shots are 100% practical. Nolan contributes to this anti-CGI fad.
@@jasonbidwellno, it was actually almost practical, the cgi is to erase the cable
@@deadstar44i don't think so, the movie rabbit hole have already gave explanation about that, even interviewing nolan's vfx supervisor, he's pretty much honest in his use of cgi
SFX: created and function while on set
VFX: post filming and editing
CGI: fully done by computer while still filming and post editing
That's a pretty concise explanation!
When you use them as an acronym, SFX also means sound effects. Also, with computer. Not by computer. Also meaning 3d imagery specifically, not all digital work. The delineation and separation is the point here!
@@halfvader8015 thank for the clearity english not my first language so its hard to convey everything
@@kimkhoitruong5991 Ah I'm sorry mate I didn't consider ESL, my apologies!
@@halfvader8015 yeah no problem i self taught myself english and visual effect over the years its easy to understand but hard to explain to other people haha
This is the kind of video that needs to be watched by everyone because SOOO many of us can't differentiate between these terms despite using them
It's really confusing out there! Hopefully, this clears it up a bit.
I really hope this video blows up the way it deserves to. One of my _biggest_ pet peeves in film circles is when people use these terms interchangeably, and I'm _so_ happy there's someone willing to break it down properly.
As corridor crew once said:
You must do everything on practical effects, puppets, and makeup... and then use CGI and VFX to improve them and to apply where the practical effects can't be applied.
Awesome video as always say.
Thanks for being one of the best channels about cinematography
Well said! We love those guys at Corridor.
Well, CC and most every vfx supervisor ever!
1:52 - It's a bit unfortunate that they touch on the fact that a lot of filmmakers claim they don't use CGI, using Top Gun and Tom Cruise as an example, when it has been proven that a lot of these filmmakers and especially Top Gun have lied about this. The clip they picked to illustrate this is literally a CGI jet. I know they also said "CGI is misunderstood" in that section, but it's not just misunderstood, those claims are just straight up lies. The jets seen in Top Gun are CGI, even though the filmmakers (like Tom Cruise) claim they aren't. For some reason both journalists and others writing about filmmaking often spread the false rumours, even though they obviously are false, since there often can be VFX breakdowns showing what's CGI. Note that some filmmakers use the power of NDAs to block VFX artists from talking about the production, even after it has been released. (That's not the case with Top Gun though, so there are plenty of proof debunking the lies used in marketing.) And note that tons of VFX artists are cut from the credits, so don't use that either as a way to measure the amount of VFX work (Nolan can literally cut hundreds of VFX artists from the credits).
I can recommend the UA-cam series _"NO CGI" is really just INVISIBLE CGI_ for those wanting to see a good summary of a bunch of these examples. Cheerio.
We included Top Gun Maverick for just that purpose - to show that this "No CGI" trend is misleading for audiences. We're also big fans of that series from The Movie Rabbit Hole. Highly recommended!
@@StudioBinder Ah, maybe I misinterpreted you then, but I think a lot of people will, because it's very unclear what's being the point there.
@@StudioBinderI don’t think that is clear at all. You said it was controversial, but there was nothing to imply that Cruise was wrong about those shots. I love this channel, and appreciate you approaching this topic, but think you’ve missed the mark this time.
@@dalelinney8437 If he said everything is real, and it wasn't, how can you say there's nothing to imply that he was wrong?
@@dalelinney8437 Er. Yeah there is. It's documented. Him saying "It's all real" is pretty straightforward mate. He was wrong, and intentionally so. It's called lying. Where do you get "there's nothing to imply"?!! You get the irony on missing the mark right? And go watch the Movie Rabbit Hole series...
Please make a video on directing style of :-
1) Alfred Hitchcock
2) Sergio Leone
3) Francis Ford Coppola
4) David Cronenberg
5) Guillermo Del Toro
6) Ridley Scott
7) James Cameron
8) Tim Burton
9) John Woo
10) Kathryn Bigelow
Don't forget Christopher Nolan, because in his style of storytelling needed help on that, please.
@@adityanimmalapudi2880 they have already made a video about nolan
These are all great suggestions! I can say that we have a couple of these in the works but I'll let you guess which ones.
We have a lot of videos on Nolan but we don't have the full Directing Styles yet. Someday!
10! There are plenty of videos for all the others, but Bigelow is too rarely mentioned.
The whole “No CGI” thing being used as a marketing tool is kinda silly. Nothing about filmmaking is “real” and filmmakers having been using “fakery” since the beginning. Just make a good movie and we won’t care.
It’s also lies most of the time! Napoleon, Maverick and many more… Directors, lead actors and execs just lying.
Amen!
I used to be a intern for a CGI studio and ngl everything shown and explain here is on point. Not to mention you gotta have the most expensive and top of the line computers and other equipment to be able to make the best output as possible. We literally went from goofy looking effects to realistic and seamless looking effects composited in various media. The obsession with making things look realistically look seamless is what makes the whole thing so meticulous and time consuming haha. I remember creating running animation for a 3D character meant to be shown for like 10 seconds which mind you took me weeks to finish, fine tuning everything, making sure everything looks right from the weight of each step, the interaction of the feet to the ground etc. Only for it to be covered up by the VFX department with dust, debris and smoke. The frustration was real, I wasn't even paid to animate it cause I was a intern back then haha.
VFX artists are definitely unsung heroes! Thanks for sharing your experience.
It's a complete audiovisual encyclopedia about the Differences between those Three Aesthetic Elements/Illusions in Filmmaking. CGI/VFX/SFX are the Three Musketeers Illusions in Filmmaking. Thousand Thanks StudioBinder for this Inspiring video.💯💯💯
Thank you! A thousand "you're welcomes"!
CGI could honestly get a video all its own with so much involved in the process. You’ve got modeling, rigging, texturing, animation, lighting even simulated physics…that’s why it grinds me gears when people say “this CGI looks bad” because they really only have a gripe with one of those aspects but don’t know enough to specifically call it out. Instead they lump everything under just “CGI”
That's very true. We wanted to give a more concise explanation here but this could have easily been an hour long video.
This was so fascinating! I didn't know there was a difference between VFX and SFX. It's neat how much we can do with them in tandem. As much as I appreciate CGI, there's just something about practical effects I find charming
I absolutely adore StudioBinder, even as a non-filmmaker.
Keep it up, good chaps!
Thanks for that!
Another important video from the channel, great job guys! I would only submit that 1)many industry professionals have different definitions of CGI, and 2) previs artists don't "sketch" our work. Instead it's more accurate to say that we "block out" or "rough out" action that later gets finalized by VFX teams.
Thanks for the feedback! Those are valuable clarifications.
Dear youtube, id rather watch a 1min ad that i cant skip at the beginning of the video than have a 5sec ad that i can skip in the middle of watching...
Always in the right time! I have this topic today in my classes :)
Ever since i subscribed to dis channel, i feel my knowledge of movie and tv productuction grow
Your video about the 12 principles of animation has helped improved my understanding of the fundamentals of animation which has aided in my study of animation for future careers
Thank you! Will always be anticipating more from you!😊❤😊
That's great to hear! Thanks for watching.
@@StudioBinder My pleasure!
I was waiting for this video. Thank you Studiobinder ❤️
Hope you enjoyed it!
Love that you got Ian on here! Nicely done StudioBinder!
Us too! He was a real pleasure to work with. Check out our full interview with Ian: ua-cam.com/video/yLezwn2TSsY/v-deo.htmlsi=pMcaoXBLRot0xfb_
There are two great special effect moments for me. The first was the start of the first Star Wars movie (episode 4) and the Imperial cruiser just going and going and going. The second was the dinosaur reveal in the original Jurassic Park. That second one is a great scene on a number of levels, including the acting of Sam Neill and Laura Dern and, of course, the music. Spielberg has always understood that special effects are a tool and that the story is what matters.
This is a good video. You get bonus point for bringing on Ian who knows what he's talking about
Thank you! And we're are HUGE fans of your series on "NO CGI" is really just INVISIBLE CGI" - it's fantastic and we recommend everyone watching our video to watch yours as well. ua-cam.com/play/PLgdTaHO8FLEve_XFiRBEcOSkRdd-Txjne.html&si=wk3coCUaQSGC3rmT
CGI , VFX and SFX all are great tools in filmmaking Thanks again Studiobinder
Agreed! Thanks for watching.
Love this lesson. I think many of us who were around between the times of Superman and Star Wars, the term Special Effects (Special FX) encompassed everything that was not apart of our real world (ie a man flying without a machine, laser swords or gigantic creatures). Now as technology advanced (going from large machinery to laptop size rendering machines) the lines have become unblurred and defined (love that high resolution!). I appreciate the old days of special effects because of the model building, camera rigs and makeup design had its rough beginnings with creative people solving the problem on set. Now many of those problems can be solved prior to shooting and post production. Either way, I give 4 thumbs up to all the people involved in realm of Special FX (you know how I mean that, LOL). Thank you StudioBinder for another great lesson!
Thanks for that! It's true, the definitions and tools have evolved over the years so it makes defining these elements really tricky. But hard work and creative work, no matter the tools, will always be appreciated.
That was very infomative and as always very entertaining to watch.
True. I am continuously becoming more literate about the medium, one video at a time. Thanks
That's our goal! Thanks for watching.
I really needed to understand this thanks
Lol I’ve always thought SFX stands for Sound FX
Me too 😂
Thank you Studio binder 🙏
Our pleasure!
Excellently Explained ❤️
Lamo I love the closed captions at 2:02, that's hilarious. And 100% true
I more or less knew the difference but this helped tremendously. So SFX and VFX are separate. SFX mainly consists of practical effects, so effects that deal with objects or actions. VFX is more focused on perspective. And finally all CGI is VFX, but not all VFX is CGI. Thoughts anyone?
we salute to the hollywood industry animation artist they really have done very speechless job made us entertain i used to think how did they made about decades ago really a unimaginable job hats off
from Asia Nepal
All movie sources are written in the video itself on the bottom (sadly sometimes obscured by the youtube interface)
Yeah, sorry about that. If you need to know anything specific, let us know!
THX! I was searching for the source of the first scene, for like 10 minutes, just because I didn't see the inserts... 😀
What is the first frame of this video?🗿
Love lies bleeding : 1hr 35mins into the movie
EXCELLENT VIDEO as Always.
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you StudioBinder
You're welcome!
Great! We are expecting more Fx videos from Studio binder
Will do! Thanks for watching.
Mastering SFX, VFX, and CGI is key to crafting a compelling story and it requires lots of experience to get it right!
Awesome & Thanks :) Quite a learning :)
Cheers!
It’s not about CGI, it never has been. It’s about the reliance on spectacle over story and a bunch of Hollywood studios believing that spectacle is the best way to bring in audiences to the cinema. CGI is an easy provider of spectacle and Hollywood focuses on this over original cinema as a means of making movies big, fast and easy… so remakes and sequels and reboots are platforms for spectacle and CGI is the means. So when filmmakers say they didn’t use any, it’s an unsaid implication that their film isn’t an instant and lazy made film. Yet, like any tool, used properly, CGI yields amazing results when driven by story.
finally understood the differences
Very interesting.
X (formerly Twitter) users be plugging their ears and closing their eyes if they see this video
😆
🙈🙉
as a layman i have always thought that CGI means a rendered 3D object on screen while visual effects is removing stuntmen, cables, workers or adding 2D background to the image but not pre-rendered 3D elements
VFX covers a LOT, including CGI. So, if there are 3D elements that need to be blended or combined in some way, that's also VFX.
I am so tired of obnoxious morons of the likes of The Critical Drinker and Nerdrotic, that I almost lost hope for the ability of UA-cam to allow genuine Artistic masters to make it through their algorithm. Thank you guys for a much needed boost of creative inspiration.
Could you make a video on Film Criticism and Film Analysis.
How to do Film Criticism and Film Analysis
Film Criticism and Film Analysis difference
Thanks dude
Bro wtf. I literally just finished watching 1917. So good
1st clip in the video was from which movie? 😅
Nice infotainment ❤
10:18 looks like they forgot to CGI hank's eyes to follow Lennon as he leans forward.
Ian is great, glad to see him on here!
Ian is fantastic! We were so happy to work with him.
Good video. Can you now do director vs producer vs co producer vs executive producer etc
That's an interesting topic! We just might.
What other ways other than digitally can we make vfx to differentiate between it and cgi
I suppose if you shoot all of your elements practically and the combine them digitally, like Nolan did with Oppenheimer. That way, you still get the benefits of VFX without relying too heavily on CGI.
hey bro what the starting scene????is it a movue???or a game scene ???
Sir,please make next video for steps of shortfilmmaking for beginers
whats the name of the movie with the giant woman?
You should do the evolution of VFX at ILM.
That would be a fun one!
8:30: Was his assignment to wear a shirt that says "I work in post production"
Not sure what you mean.
00:02 what is that movie
I'm surprised the absolute masterpiece of VFX/SFX wasn't used as an example: _Who Framed Roger Rabbit?_
So many movies we couldn't include, and that's one of 'em!
RRR train sequence is one of the examples where all fx are applied
I am surprised, I have always considered that special effects were any kind of effect, either practical, visual or digital.
You're not alone! That's why we wanted to make this one so people have a better understanding of the layers involved and how complicated this issue really is.
So kinda. Visual Effects is a term meaning ANY change to the medium. CGI is apart of the VFX art, not a separate one. SFX is the only one that is off CGI.
This is very usefull thanks for sharing tips for free luv ur content :)
Happy to help!
indian audiances and youbers should watch this video. because most of them don't know the difference between vfx and cgi. if any movie's cgi looks bad, they complaint to the vfx artists and mocking them. example : the flash, she hulk, adipurush, kotchadayan, etc.
American audiences are just as guilty of this.
It's a very common misunderstanding. Hopefully we could clear some of that up.
you watched the whole video and still didn't understood a thing, "vfx artist" is an umbrella term in the industry, that includes people who creates CGI (3d models, textures, animation etc) and also people who do rotoscopy and compositing etc as well. CGI artist and VFX artist in the vfx studio terminology are not two different things.
Amazing ❤
So actually there's only two, Old Special Effect(practical,Special,method, aka you need make one literally) and New VFX(digitized VFX)
8:47 "some shots are completely done in cgi like this moment in Wall-E". Some shots?! In case you didn't know the entire Wall-E animation is cgi.
I like the examples from this century.
Us too! Thanks for watching.
the first scene of the video for which movie ?
Love Lies Bleeding
The human mind is a beautiful thing and I love being a human 😇
Which movie is that giant girl at the start from?
Dune Part Two deep Dive... Make it happen please
to me as a kid watching Movie Magic i always thought of it as sfx are more practical, vfx are more camera and lens, and cg obvi is computer generated.
İs there a movie without sfx,vfx or practical efects?
00:00 what is that movie
I wanna know as well
love lies bleeding
You got it!
14:15 where are these visuals from?
The Fountain and What Dreams May Come. Both films have breathtaking vfx.
How is forced perspective VFX rather than SFX? Unless I'm misunderstanding forced perspective is using the camera's perspective to fool the audience into thinking things are bigger or smaller or closer or whatever. This is something happening in front of the camera right? I've also heard painted backgrounds called VFX before (maybe this is just wrong or an attempt to simplify), but I would think they are SFX.
By the way thankyou 😊 for the video.
The best VFX are the ones we don't notice. So the best compliment VFX artists get, is when nobody complains.
Very true. VFX artists are unsung heroes.
I get what you mean, but there's a ton that that doesn't account for. A heap of effects work that can't help but be noticeable because it's part of the very premise. Did you think ET was bad because you noticed him in every shot and he couldn't possibly be real? Or Yoda or whoever? The more imaginative or genre the premise, the more you'll know it's fx work and that will never change!
@@halfvader8015 obvisouly this doesn't account for unreal stuff like non-existing fictional characters. I mean all the unnoticed VFX in (f.e.) Top Gun, Barbie, and EVERY other movie out there where we think they might got it in camera, but was digitally replaced or added without anybody noticing.
@@niiklaswag Sure. It's just not how you worded it that's all/was not "obvious" at all. Or I wouldn't even have taken you to task on it. You gotta understand that people assume and so the great unwashed just take these all-encompassing statements that don't even mention the supposedly obvious stuff, as the be all end all. And the people who say these things/what you did, assume everyone just gets it, which makes even their own statements redundant. And the funny thing is the even the armchair critics of vfx badmouth stuff like digital matte painting (showing themselves up to be just as moronic as those who know nothing) - which is so good that it's what matte paintings were always intended to be and what you're actually discussing here - the "invisible art"! Cheers.
Is using a computer to add a real thing to the frame VFX or CGI? Like the example where the guy creates multiple versions of himself, if you accomplished the same thing with a computer does that make it CGI? I suppose so but the question popped up because I was thinking it's different from adding something that's entirely made in a computer, like the Pikachu, since you are just using a computer to make the old VFX technique of multiple exposures to create things that aren't actually there easier.
More n More thanks to you. Great mese ging video 🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂💐❤️🙏. Love❤️ to all teams ❤️🙏.

Please give one more video for sfx, CGI VFX difference
It's possible. This is a complicated issue so it might warrant further explanation.
