Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest- Creating Davy Jones at Walt Disney World Backlot
Industrial Light & Magic presents a little background video into the making of the Davy Jones character in The Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest.
The American Film Institute (AFI) Showcase is an exhibit at the end of the Backlot Tour, in Disney's Hollywood Studios. This area features themed exhibits relating to special effects in cinema.
The current exhibit, Villains, The Characters You Love to Hate, has been updated as of May 2008 to feature costumes and props relating to some of the most famous movie bad guys, including Davy Jones, Darth Vader from Star Wars, and King Miraz from the Narnia movie, Prince Caspian.

10 years on an the cgi is as good as anything today. It really does not look like cgi so i was convinced it was a mix of cgi and make-up

The movies aged so well. I just saw two the other night, and it's fantastic it looks no older than it did back then. It's already been a decade.

it wasnt a mix. the makeup was just a "backup" if anything would look wrong but everything of davy in the movie was CGI

@@rodrigob8164 Perhaps he is, but I think Thanos is not even close to this level of CGI because he looks so fake and too matte/non-greasy. Whereas Davy Jones looks so amazingly real.
Davy was a seriously creepy character. They did a hell of a job creating such a creature and yet giving him such personality.

Well, I mean, it depends on situation. Keep in mind that the same people who made this ageless work of art four Pirates of the Caribbean Dead Man's Chest, also thought it would be a good idea to create the plastic artificial looking monstrosities for Pirates of the Caribbean Dead Men tell no Tales. It just depends on two things for both CGI and practical effects. One, budget, and two, the skill of the people making these designs. If you have one without the other, the end result is probably going to be something that looks bad

@@theblackpearl3880 They didn’t “Think it was a good idea”. Around 15 years ago, studios didn’t want CGI companies to do so much when it came to VFX, and did more simplistic things. Studios wanted the VFX companies to take their time, because it was relatively new. Now, not only do studios want companies to do the craziest shit ever, it’s starting to take a toll on them. They have to get so much done in such little time, usually in a few months at the max. And they have to do rush jobs to pump these things out faster. Then, studios won’t give the company the money they need to survive, and the VFX company is basically fucked because the studio forced them to invest too much money, and they could possibly go out of business. So many VFX companies are dying out because of this, and no one is doing anything because nobody really cares about it. The last few companies standing are ILM and Weta, and even they have some jarring CGI.
12 years later it still looks impressive

oh sorry i thought you said best movie not best character
brilliant performance by nighy (as always) and an equally brilliant job done by the effects people working on jones.
Now this is CGI. It's not just about making something that can't be filmed practically. The fact that you can do anything gives you so much more responsibility to utilize everything at your disposal towards making a great design and communicating it effectively.
Best bad character all of time. Great job!
Such an interpretation makes him one of the best movie villains. To this day, I am thrilled with Davy Jones. 😢😢
Gollum and Davy Jones, 2 of the most realistic/belivable CGI creatures ever created so far! Both are fantastic.
Best CGI character ever made.
fucking genius
Human ingenuity at its very best!
Enjoyed this video and the editing is awesome.
I still wonder if he is CGI or not every time i re-watch it. Even though i already know the answer. Even the sequel At Worlds End does not look as good, i'm sure a lot of fans notice this as well. Its quite unbelievable what they achieved in Dead Man's Chest and i think the movie is undeservedly bashed

@@Wilma_Dickfit_huh Dead Man's Chest is quite long without that much happening. The Cannibal Island and the three-way sword fight in a hamster wheel were both far longer sequences than necessary. Honestly, the only thing that makes Dead Man's Chest such a good movie, is Davy Jones.
davy jones is the best charctor and one of the best pirate i have ever seen
@1:35 hahahaha "Price? Pop" XDD
incredible!
Amazing 🖤
@emdiuenmaxi Yes, Gollum, Davy Jones and the Navi are superb examples on how to use CGI correctly. Many filmmakers do not get how yo work with visual effects tools.
Fantastic 🤗
Amazing.. it's just amazing what can me done now
Nothing can take that kind of polly work atm
@MrDavidFILM yeah, you are right!
awesome ..:)
bill nighy is a bloody genius!

@Jugem16 1. It is hard since many people are doing it . 2. Start as early as you can ( i mean it ) 3. If you can afford cg college do it , be a great student and you should get hired hopefully right off the bat after college. 4.I'd recommend sticking with 3ds max or maya , photoshop and zbrush/mudbox , these are industry standards . 5.If you cant afford college with a degree etcetera you are going to be unemployed a LOT .and going freelance is a bit hard to acheive and you must be really good .
If there's someone professional here, please anwer to my following question: After making the model, how its possible to combine the movements of your actor and of the animated model? Also is there any way to get the same gray uniform and how to make up properly the actor so to combine actor and animated model movements...aa.
what the name of this used program
Which software did they use to edit this?
Yes, both are incredible creations. Although I would put Davy Jones as the absolute best.
What is the program to create it ?
@7tomazek free download of this ? good luck with that
This is 2006 and 2007 and the effects are better then every x-men effect
0:53 star wars music in the background
maybe it helps that director Gore Verbinski has a background in visual effects!
what name of this software???
@KingArmag thanks.
how they put this at original davy jones?
It's up there with the much older CGI of Jurassic Park, in special effects that have aged phenominally.

Davy Jones vs Thanos
The 3D character is rigged with a skeleton which gets its animation from the on-stage perfomance-capture system. This is what the retroreflective dots on the suits are for. And these suits are neither expensive nor hard to make yourself, but the propriatary mocap software/hardware and techniques of ILM's are not accessible to anyone outside the studio.
well there goes my life..
and i think that they use Maya o somenthing like this to animated. sorry for my english.. i speak spanish.

what about the gobin in lord of the rings ,distict 9 ,avatar becouse they made a big jump whit the program weta or maybe optimus prime in transformers
Those GPUs should be powerfull to move the graphics.
So they manually keyframes every single shot of Davy Jones's expressions? That must be tedious as hell
Y’all already guessed what he said here lol 1:24
Haha that cute pop in the mouth he made :)
michael bolton liked it
Bill Nighy was Jones?! Arg got the epic doubled
Amazing artificial intelligence tech supported by high levels of math and physics
The animations are from bones from 3ds max, first the model is rigged, in this video it shows only the head rigged,meaning they attached the model to the bones. Then each bone is moved per key frame to get the animation. It is a long process. Even motion capture you have to tweak and then add sound to to mach up each frame,this tale a long process, months.
brovooooooooooooo ! waw
"For this reason Davy's facial performance was keyframed by animators rather than by using a facial motion capture" THANKS Learn people, learn. When you use motion capture you are not leaving the acting to the actor, you are leaving the acting to the machine that translates this acting without any control.
The Star Wars music on the background though 😂😅

Music and background noise drowns out narrators voice.
No matter how many classes I would take, I can't design something that complex. Ever.
Any time you see modern CG work that looks like trash, reference Davey Jones in 2006 and they instantly lose all excuses.
