I could never tell in the theater which parts of the environment were cgi and which were photographed/on-set/on-location practical stuff. Brilliant work

I love ILM’s breakdowns.

The masking is impressive

Truly glorious VFX in this film

Should definitely win the Oscar this year

The blu-ray was bare bones in bonus features, so thank you for posting these breakdowns!

The movie is visually stunning!

Given the Gareth Edwards VFX knowledge and good taste in framing/composing, ILM was a perfect fit. It would be great to see and extended clip with some VFX Artist + Supervisors in the back and forth process with Edwards, Greig Fraser and Oren Soffer (DP's) about the scope and dynamics in this simulations. Felt awesome in the cinema (2 times in 1 week).

INSANE job congrat's ILM team

Beautiful. The Movie was really amazing.

ILM on top ✅️

All the real locations really set this movie apart from so many of today's scifi movies and shows that look like they're just on a sterile set with green screen. Very vfx heavy, lots of on location shooting, relatively small budget for the scale.

the tech will get better but it just worked well for the script being based mostly in asia and asia looking cinematic on its own, even tho not great i personally admire the effort that the artists put for example in marvel movies

ILM 🌹🤗- you guys are out of the world in creativity 🌸 beyond words 🌹

I would love to know whether the monkey who detonates the explosive charge on that huge Vehicle (0:34) is CG or real, or a bit of both. The segment I mean was shown at the start of the interview with Gareth Edwards & Jay Cooper.

This movie had the best simulations I've ever seen, hands down

Gorgeous VFX

Please make a Special of FX Simulations in big Movies. This is so intresting to see how ILM works with such large Simulations. The Explosions in this Movie are so good. Great Work :)

The RBD sim of houses being demolished is like the most realistic sim I've ever seen.

ART

amazing composites, very inspiring

The level VFX is at now is unthinkable. I desire to learn how so bad.

Damn regretful I never saw this one in theaters, becuz WOW .... Damn good VFX shots. But then again, it's ILM, so of course, lol!

You should make a movie absolutely awesome work❤❤❤❤

Good !

Houdini?

great sci-fi movie

ILM ftw

One question, do you also render this entirely inside Houdini? Because I'm having a really hard time getting velocity attributes to get outside of houdini into e.g. Blender, which you need for Motion Blur. Especially when working with particles that change in count frame by frame. I know, that's particularly the case when working with fluid sims, we see a lot of vdb and ridgid body here, but I'd still like to ask :) So I wonder how large productions houses like yours handle those issues, just make it all in Houdini or do you have ways to get any custom attributes into any software you like ?

I don't think they render a scene entirely, they work with layers as you can see in 0:13, every effect is a layer and probably they only render the effects inside houdini, I guess, afterwards they assably all of the layers, mattepainting and plates in nuke.

@@rano12321 I do hear you. It may be that for this shot they were able to render just the vfx inside of houdini and comp it with the rest if it was made outside. However this approch quickly gets complicated when other layers are effected. e.g. the explosion would show in the reflections of a building. When water hits a surface and changes the reflection channel. I wonder how much of these details have an impact on how and in which software the scene gets built or if they can freely do whatever they want and solve it all in comp.

VFX ❌ Future ✅ 😁

3ds max?

Delicious

SHOOT IN THAILAND TO HOLLYWOOD SCIFI 😎🥤🍿💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

Ummm, spoiler alert! Jeez guys.

They just shot and edited an entire film and then they just put the VFX over it. That’s how Movies should be made

It looks over the top computer generated.

Физику так и не научились делать😂

As a Korean, I find this movie very unpleasant. It is full of images created by mixing white people's prejudices against Asia with old SF. The countryside of many Asian countries is no longer as underdeveloped as depicted in movies. In Asia, where the image of the Vietnam War is still lingering, the image of all Asian countries being forcibly lumped together while ignoring historical and cultural context is disgusting. This is another form of racism. This is one of the forms of racism that white people naturally do, like what Robert Downey Jr. did at this year's Oscars.
