Great vfx for sure

As a Local 399 location scout in Hollywood for the last 25 years, I can tell you that locations don't just appear as if by magic. The location scout is probably the least appreciated member of the creative team, while being one of the most important. I can also tell you that Roger Deakins isn't the one going out there day to day doing real location scouting. For every 1 location that he visits, there were another 10 or 20 or sometimes even 100 locations that were "scouted" but that he had only seen in the photographs taken by the real location scouts. We are brought onto projects very early and can be one of the last to finish when location management is completed and wrap books are submitted. It would have been nice to have seen at least one scout included in this video. Especially since their photographic work product was appropriated and used for an on-screen visual effect. In the Locations Department, we must have the ability to not only visualize creatively, but to simultaneously translate what we visualize into the real world situation wherein fiction meets fact. We must take into inconsideration every aspect of filmmaking. From geopolitics to color palletes to logistical planning. No other department has such a wide scope of responsibilities or collaboration demands put upon them. Except for maybe the producers, which is why many location professionals do become producers eventually.

I am currently a Local 817 Location Scout in NYC and I can not agree more with this statement. The amount of work that goes into finding one location is absolutely staggering. The number of variables needed to find the "right spot" are insane and very much transcend just the visual aspect of the location itself. I wish this video in the very least gave a nod to the locations department, which has a very different set of responsibilities than the camera department, to which Mr. Deakins is apart of. Well said my friend from across the country!

I'd say that one of the most common pitfalls to avoid with a location is falling in love with it because of lighting conditions you may not have on the shooting day. It's easy to look at a location on a day when the sunlight shows it off at its best and then go back when the light is dull and flat and wonder what on earth you saw in it in the first place.

Deakins is a master of his craft. 'The Assassination of Jesse James...' was one of the most amazing looking films I've seen, not to mention that it's just a fantastic movie, altogether. 'Bladerunner 2049' is another. In fact; every film that Deakins works on is a gem to look at, whether or not the film itself is one. Thanks!

The fact that they're using such cost effective measures as using still frames from a location scout, that weren't even intentionally shot to be used in the movie, for a full blown Hollywood production should let everyone know that figuring out creative ways around your limitations trumps throwing money at a problem even when money is not an issue.
