  • This is the first episode of the new "Explain like I'm five" series where I go through popular vfx techniques and explain them in an easy and understandable way!
    This episode is all about cloud tanks.
    You might not be familiar with the technique but you certainly know the movies it's being used on! Cloud tanks are Hollywood's way to create magical, out-of-this-world clouds! The results speak for themselves! Join me as I go through some of the most popular movies that use them!
    Enjoy!

    the very first image you show after talking about the cloud tank is actually from a cloud tank, but a 1965 light-art piece called OPUS 161 (I think) by Thomas Wilfred.

    I just saw the idea of Douglas Trumbull’s cloud tank from the book”the cloud spotter’s guide”.
    Really get interest in this idea.
    And, your video are very useful to see those effect.

    Just throwing things to CGI is partly why films suck today. People really don't have pride in their product and it shows in modern filmmaking. A lot of the cloud effects in those 80s films are living art and far exceed anything CGI can come up with.

    Yeah done in CGI now and they do not look organic Because of that fact.
