Why most visual effects suck--but some don't | Wren Weichman | TEDxPenn

Why can't we stop noticing bad visual effects whenever we go to the movies, even though VFX technology has never been better and film budgets have never been bigger? KZread star Wren Weichman is an engineer turned self-taught visual effects artist. As a crew member at Corridor, Wren makes cinema-quality videos chock full of eye-popping visual effects. Drawing on the experience of his movie fandom and professional career, Wren details the visual effects pipeline to shed light on how even well-intentioned effects can go wrong and why the very best effects may have the ones you never even noticed at all. As a crew member at Corridor, KZread’s premier cinema quality channel, Wren Weichman has seen more than his fair share of visual effects. Since their inception, visual effects have constantly grown more prominent in film and other productions, to the point where we can’t stop notic- ing them. Backed by his years of real-world experience in the field, Wren will unpack how and why visual effects are ruining movies but also how the very best effects can be an art form that you may have never noticed. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    Without prior knowledge of Wren (outside of seeing some of corridor digital’s viral videos), I could also sense his nervousness. The tone here was a bit off. Almost as if he cared more about giving a good talk and being liked than expressing thought provoking ideas. Not to say he failed at either. Just a little different.

    Editing wise this has to be the worst TED talk I have seen to date. You've heavily edited out content that is key to the talk - It really doesn't work without it. And yes there is a definite copyright issue, but you don't have to argue hard for educational and critique here. You're more than big enough to have your lawyer contact theirs and get a license deal going if need be. The heavy editing has left the audio and video completely out of sync - Which is impressive for a FIFTEEN MINUTE video. How did you not spot and handle this?

    If you look on the Corridor Crew channel, you'll find a version of this talk that they turned into a little visual essay, with all the clips and examples we didn't in this video. Also, the performance is a lot smoother as Wren isn't exactly happy talking to an auditorium, but if genuinely fantastic talking to a camera. And to be fair, both Corridor and Corridor Crew are channels that are worth checking out anyway if you're even remotely interested in cgi and cinematography!

    SP3CTR0M_Brendan X has nothing to do with it, editing on this video is bad. Try to be on topic kid.

    @SP3CTR0M_Brendan X Doesn't mean that they can't criticize someone's mistakes. Just because someone can't edit doesn't mean that everything they say about something is automatically void, whoever edited this video didn't show the slides and didn't sync the audio. That's a mistake on their end, this doesn't mean a professional editor is the only person with permission to criticize.

    @SP3CTR0M_Brendan X So? Who knows, the person who made this comment could be more competent in editing than whoever the paid professional is if there is one. Just because someone is "better" than you doesn't mean you can't call out their terrible mistakes.

    SP3CTR0M_Brendan X you act like editing clips like this is difficult 😂 they couldn’t even sync the audio.

    I love Wren and he did great. But y'all really messed this one up. I feel disrespected for Wren.

    Imagine having a talk about visual effects and almost all visuals are left out of the recording.

    That moment you see Wren in the video and you think it' a Corridor Crew video.
