Great video.👏 I was a matte painter on Shogun. Worked on Osaka, the Tenshu and the surrounding environment alongside some brilliant artists. It was an amazing project to work on and it's wonderful reading all the comments praising the work.
Well done to you and all of your colleagues, truly beautiful work
I think that the greatest testament to how much of a fantastic job you and your colleagues did was that I never got the sense that I was watching a VFX shot or a painted background. Not once.
Only now, watching this feature, the rational part of my brain is going "oh right yeah they didn't have actual 17th-century Osaka to film".
This is honestly insane work, after watching 6 episode I knew that it couldn't possibly all be shot real, but I never expected this much to be CG, I genuinely couldn't tell
Dude, I was just thinking the same thing. WTF! These are some unbelievably good CGI shots!
exactly!!
Tbf the "drone shots" of Osaka and the sea stuff was very clearly CGI, and maybe not the best. But I'm shocked how much of the other stuff is, most of it I really couldn't tell.
There's always a lot of cgi in film and TV these days but people only notice the bad.
The VFX team better win an Emmy for this show!
Hehe thanks I’m counting on it :)
and the costume department!!
This level of craftsmanship for a show . The amount of hardwork and dedication required to achieve this scale is beyond me , I pour my heart and love to this show and it’s makers.❤
"Game of Thrones" opened the door with regards to how grand and sweeping television could look. Previously only feature films had the ability to look this epic. Now with both the budget and technology at its disposal, tv productions today can look as amazing as their big screen counterparts.
Thank you guys for giving your VFX team the credit they deserve. It's a mark of decency, in an environment where many of your peers in Hollywood prefer to lie and pretend their movies/shows don't use CG.
That's the thing about CGI, you don't notice it when it's good, but you notice it very well when it's flawed.
With that said, things do seem to look the best when it's a good mix of both practical and CG.
This comment. 👍
Especially after watching a recent Corridor Crew Episode. I hope they cover Shogun.
oh plz. mononke 97 and koh 05 all pretended that it wasn't cg galore. who do you think u are referencing nolan.
@@TehIdiotOne This is the result you get with proper planning and sticking to one vision. As a VFX Compositor, directors will sometimes change things last minute and still want us to stick to the same deadline.
@@Zaymac_As a software developer, i can relate, believe me
These effects are perfectly seamless...never takes me out of the story as bad VFX would. Really well done!
I can see the fire on the arrows not being real, but the whole of all those arrows being shot from bows in relative close-ups being a complete visual effect is incredible. Never in a million years would i have thought that those bows werent just shooting real arrows safely to targets offscreen.
Any idea WHY they're not shooting real arrows though? Seems like it might've been easier to do that part practical than having to recreate it in CGI
@@empireoflightzprobably so they can exactly control what final look will be for physical arrows, like not firing at same time, or in the right direction. With VFX they have exact control of what the arrows will look like
@@AeroGold1that seems a bit lazy considering the budget of this show, you could probably hire some archers and get some nice looking arrows, maybe just do the fire with VFX? Guess I'm always a supporter of doing things practical when possible like a Nolan or Villeneuve would do, but I suppose if the end result looks ok, which it *mostly* does on Shogun (but not always), then I'm ok with it.
@@empireoflightz Not lazy at all as VFX works is extremely expensive and time consuming. You can't shoot an arrow near a person, so a digital asset is going to be used either way, the reasons why one would replace it with digital assets is to have full control of the quantity and where they land, also for composition, maybe they shot a real arrow on a take but the lighting is incorrect.
@@empireoflightz I don't remember Nolan or Villeneuve movies ever having archers. When you launch an arrow, it has to go somewhere. If you can replace the arrows with digital effects, it makes more sense to do that then to have to close off part of your set so the arrows don't end up striking crew members. Digital effects are happening more and more for safety reasons. Chad Stahelski's John Wick movies pride themselves on practical stunts, but every single gun muzzle flash you see in any of the four Wick movies are digital effects added in post production because Chad doesn't allow old school blanks to be used on set. That's not lazy, that's just a former stunt guy using new technology to ensure greater safety for his crew and stunt teams.
すごい技術。
VFX映像に合わせた俳優たちの演技も、すべて実写のようなリアルさ。
ハリウッドの技術で素晴らしい映像が実現した。
ありがとう😊

I am an aspiring VFX artist and here because the arrow slow-motion shot inspired me incredibly. I will give everything for this wonderful art of filmmaking and 3D design in combination.
My. Mind. Is. Blown!! I didn't even think certain shots had CGI at all!! -- Exceptional job to the entire team bc TRULY the CGI usage is seamless 🤯🙌🏽
One word to all the people involved in this project, RESPECT!
Owww.... I am ecstatic about the Battle of Sekigahara sneak peek. But I wish they had held onto it till the episode itself.
I thought they were not going to do it because it was not in the OG show. But I am soooo hyped now!!
0:39 I always dream about Toyotomi's old Osaka castle, seeing its precise footages just excite me crazily.
Never before has a show been so good that I yearn for its podcast and behind the scenes footage.
Just finishing all the episodes of this epic series! Such a great show. I cannot wait for them to win all the Emmys & Golden Globes there is!
how to tell it has stunning cgi while watching i couldnt even think of cgi i was just immersed completely in the shots and storyline. excellent job
I bow to the craftmanship involved.
Rachel Kondo: "I hope you all will be curious about this world which we are unfamiliar with". Well you guys definitely did a good job transporting me to 17th century feudal Japan. Amazing work by the team, I am speechless!
Such great vfx shots. So many are ones you didn’t even know were there…
One of the very few shows which you are counting the days before the next episode and re watching the previous,
The best series on any TV or steaming service today. Simply outstanding!
I wish there would be more shows like this, that feeling is just wow sometimes feels 1 may feel long or short I watch the first episode so fast but then it got into the show and to be honest it feel I was watching the tv for days.
This show is an epic masterpiece!
The architecture is impressive but relatively easy to do in CGI but that water - wow.
Thank you guys for making this Show. ❤
Incredible Work!
Amazing show! Masterpiece
Amazing that it blends so well
Absolutely love the show.
The effort and quality coming in from both Practical and VFX is astounding. Thank you for giving credit where it's due. This sets the stage for Tai-Pan, King Rat and so on.
Good days ahead.

A masterpiece
A fantastic making of! Thanks for shining a spotlight on the VFX teams' amazing work!
Phenomenal work as always. These behind the scenes looks really showcase just how skilled the cast & crew if Shōgun really is. Well done all around.
They may as well just cancel the Emmy voting for this year, because this show is already gonna win them all.
Thank you for this incredible work!
No words. This is just 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I reckon the whole world have hear, or are watching this spectacular show,all well for all the people involved in this,and bringing us a gem in need
amazing!! I am loving so much this show. I will definitely read the book after.
This show has been absolutely amazing! Hope they made a new one about nobunaga on this scale
Amazing !!❤
VFX has been amazing. Ever since Forrest Gump, I've tried to pay attention to VFX used on "ordinary" scenes, not space ships or monster, but ordinary scenes. It's amazing what these artists do. And also to keep these actors safe!
Truly spectacular
Amazing show!
The best show to come out in years!They have to continue this story or at the very least adapt James Clavell’s other books.
Much respect! Has made for an amazing movie series to watch. With only a few episodes left hoping there is a chance for a season 2. Its japanese history, there are perhaps possibilities.
I really love this show very much. Waiting week by week to see.
Very very cool
The team did a fantastic job with the VFX. At no time during my viewing of this from episode 1 to 10 did I pause to wonder if certain things were CGI or real. Everything seemed real to me. That’s how good it was.
You guys nailed it🎉
Thank you for this piece of work you did on this show and congratulations on your emmy and golden globe win (i already know based on the work you have given out 🙏🏻)
Mind-blowing CG animation would be an understatement.
~~~ BRAVO !!! Well done.
One of the best show in decades, up there with True Detective Season 1
Freaking talent poured in to make it look authentic!
Impressive VFXs
the brilliance of VFX on this show puts MCU to shame
I can't wait to watch this, but I'm waiting until I can binge the whole thing.
If you can do that you very strong samurai
Just watching clips from this show make anxious to watch the next episode
@@penegakkeadilanpembasmikej5022 I'm more impatient than strong. It drives me nuts to get to the end of an episode then have to wait seven miserable days for the next one. I know I'm going to be watching the episodes until I keel over.
1:27 does this mean were getting the battle of sekigahara!? I am hoping we get it!
Sure looks that way!!!
Informative
Saya tunggu episode 7
Yarimazing!
I'm a fan of the show, I'll say final render vfx it's amazing
It's crazy how the VFX is 20x better than any high-budget Marvel/DC movie
Or not. Both have equally better effects than Hollywood’s we want to make 3D movies too/post-Avatar 1 phase. 😠🙂
Best tv series since GOT...
This is crazy, I don't know what's CG and what's practical anymore.
Imagine Netflix's Blue Eye Samurai has a Live Action version that would be blow-mind!
Shogun is 🔥🔥🔥
Man I love how we keep getting better and better as humans just looking at this makes me proud of humanity I told my father about CGI and he laughed at me not believing it he said "no they hired real people" 😂😂
The novel has ended, but Japanese history is about to get more interesting.
I want to see the fight with Ishido (Battle of Sekigahara)
please make season 2
Also, Ochiha no Kata, who defected to Toranaga and led him to victory in the Battle of Sekigahara, and his son's battle between Toranaga's (winter camp) and (summer camp) to attack the impregnable Osaka Castle. I want to see
General should be seasoned
Shogun Total War 😤
What a great show! Please, make a Musashi by eiji stream show too. With this same level of quality.
CGI used in an perfect way
The CG is ok you really can't tell unless you're paying attention
When is this comming on Blu-ray?
4:40大阪の城下町が描かれているのが凄く嬉しいけど、映る時間短すぎて残念。戦国のゲルニカ「大阪夏の陣図屏風」再現を期待してます。
4:40You can guess who lives there just by looking at the buildings.I'm looking forward to seeing
which called GUERNICA drawn during the Sengoku period
turned into a movie.It is displayed inside Osaka Castle.
Stories are told, Good Stories are told in Multitudes, Epics are sung and acted in Operas, Miniseries like SHÖGUN are raised to the level of Art.!
¡Las Historias se narran, las Buenas Historias se cuentan en Multitud, las Epopeyas Epicas se cantan y actúan en Operas, las Miniseries como SHÖGUN se elevan al nivel de Arte.!
😎👍❕️
That's so cool... Disbelief officially suspended! #ShogunRocks
and who does seppuku - 4:15?
👏👏👏👏👏👏
Wait this was shot in BC? That’s where I live, whereabouts in the province was it?
How many episode that this show have in total?
10
I will not pirate this show as my personal respect to the creators.
Mind boggling. Things I thought were positively real....weren't.
what's the soundtrack name from 0:40???
Did you find out?
@@HotdogSosage nope;/ sadlly. you found it maybe?
I don't know what song it is exactly, but it reminds me a lot of Kojo No Tsuki and Sakura Sakura wich are two traditional popular Japanese songs, this little hummed tune is perhaps an original composition inspired by these songs.
This has so many spoilers I can't watch ?!! Not until I finish watching the show.
Footprints, that perhaps another,
Sailing o’er life’s solemn main,
A forlorn and shipwrecked brother,
Seeing, shall take heart again.
next after Godzilla Minus One will be Shogun next year winning multiple awards “ IH ! IH ! HOOOOOOH !!! “ 🙋🏻♀️🥰
何故、字幕は無いんでしょ？何を話してるのか知りたい｡｡｡
120 warriors
1000 vfx artists
めちゃくちゃ素晴らしかったで(＾ω＾)
im gonna glaze all over shogun
disappointing that this video is only in 1080p.
This show is magic, well done.
Nice! Now see Hansan for how it is really done without using technology as a crutch.
You know they're American when they refer to the province as "British Columbia". Everyone in Canada just calls it "B.C."
The producers spared no expense on the lush costumes, sets and computer effects, BUT, I gotta ask, what were they thinking with the creepy blue coloured eye contact lenses used by the star of the show... you mean to say, there was not another handsome actor to be found, to play that part, who actually has blue eyes? (The strange blue contact lenses make the actor look like a vampire, and the soulless eyes are very distracting when trying to follow the story.)
Disney, are you aware what your recent acquisition FX have done here, at all cost's keep Disney's production teams away from the FX team, don't let them infect them with the Disney disease.
Not that they did, but if FX employed ILM to work on Shogun, surely there would be no harm in doing so?
@@Ngamotu83Bless you for thinking they could do no harm.
@@thomasmain5986 You have a problem with ILM, one of the best visual effects houses in the world?
@@thomasmain5986 You have a problem with ILM?
@@thomasmain5986 You have a problem with ILM?
What is going on with this show?? On UA-cam TV the show started in 4K then dropped to 1080p now dropped to 720p with no other options. Being in 720p is unacceptable and should not be used for any current TV show.
This is so meanly, show please artists who created all these visual effects, not producers, writers or actors! No respect to artists craft.
this is some shitty vfx lol
