WorldWide FX was the lead VFX studio bringing Patrick Robinson's bestseller book to the big screen.Our team was led by the VFX Supervisor Stanislav Dragiev who worked alongside the director Donovan Marsh and the Production VFX Supervisor Sean Farrow to create more than 600 breathtaking shots for "Hunter Killer".Our work was varied and included everything from set extensions to full CG underwater environment.It was an exciting and rewarding experience to be able to be a part of such an ambitious project. We were able to successfully complete many challenging tasks such as: achieving a realistic underwater environment with visible details even during the night; realistically simulating underwater explosions; recreating huge objects such as American and Russian submarines in great detail.We also tried out some different approaches in our work such as rendering particles for the 3D environments in Nuke instead of Houdini. "Hunter Killer" (2018) is directed by Donovon Marsh and is starring Gerard Butler, Gary Oldman, Common, Michael Nyqvist.

ANT-MAN AND THE WASP Movie: VFX Breakdown http://animagalaxy.com/vfx/item/588-ant-man-and-the-wasp-movie-vfx-breakdown http://animagalaxy.com/vfx/item/588-ant-man-and-the-wasp-movie-vfx-breakdown ANT-MAN AND THE WASP Movie: VFX Breakdown
Visual effects for the film were created by DNEG, Scanline VFX, Method Studios, Luma Pictures, Lola VFX, Industrial Light & Magic,[69] Cinesite, Rise FX, Rodeo FX, Crafty Apes, Perception NYC, Digital Domain, and The Third Floor. DNEG worked on over 500 shots, including the effects for Ghost—which were shared with the other vendors—the third act chase sequence, and the final Ghost fight as Hank and Janet are returning from the quantum realm. For the "macro-photography" sequences in the film, DNEG took a different approach from their work in Ant-Man due to issues including trying to get a camera to seem small enough to capture the small actions. Though some of the film was shot with a Frazier lens that provides extra depth of field, DNEG would still need to "re-project the road higher and "raise the floor level" to simulate a tiny sized camera". As the third act chase sequence was mainly shot in Atlanta, while being set in San Francisco, DNEG VFX Supervisor Alessandro Ongaro noted it required "extensive environment work" with background elements in some shots not being salvageable at all. DNEG ultimately created 130 unique environments for the chase. Clear Angle aided DNEG with the Lidar surveying and photography of San Francisco, and were able to get their information for Lombard Street down to the millimeter resolution. Lola once again worked on the de-aging sequences with Douglas, Pfeiffer, and Fishburne. The flashback sequences featuring a younger Hank Pym were set around the same time as the flashback sequences of Ant-Man, so Lola were able to use a similar process, referencing Douglas' appearance in Wall Street (1987) and having the actor on set in a different wardrobe and wig. Lola VFX Supervisor Trent Claus felt Pfeiffer's was less complicated, since "she has aged incredibly well" and still has…

Compositing is the combining footage of CGI Computer generated Imagery computer graphics visual elements from different sources into single image & Live-action footage like "chroma key", "blue screen", "green screen" and other... are often to create the illusion that all those elements are real footage from same scene. The reason why we think CGI is bad is because we only see bad CGI. —Freddie Wong CG. Fantastic, beautiful, and wonderfully executed CG is everywhere - you just don’t know it.

World War Z, Brad Pitt didn't take long to be crowned the highest-grossing zombie film of all time. But what makes this movie so captivating is the realistic visual effects created by computer graphics artists. The talented group of people worked around the clock to pull off one of the most believable apocalyptic films we've ever seen. And now that the sequel has been delayed, we thought we'd take a look at what the original film looks like without all the snazzy the visual effects. Prepared to be amazed. The AgentsWhile watching the film, you probably wondered how they were able to get so many extras for many of these shots. But the truth is, most of the zombies are actually agents - digital bots that were created by visual effects artists. Up to 8,500 of these agents were used per scene, and over 24 different body types were digitally created using various textures to give each bot its own unique appearance. MPC did an amazing job building unique humans and zombies that had many moviegoers fooled. Men, women, and children body types were used as templates for these characters. Various zombies were then built, from those with small blood stains to the ones with opened wounds and rotting teeth. The computer-generated people and zombies were also given their own unique CG clothing. Massive CrowdsCinesite were behind many of the aerial shots of Philadelphia where thousands of people were running in streets as they were chased by zombies. These scenes were first filmed on a smaller scale, and then Cinesite bulked up the real, on-set extras by adding 25,000 virtual bots to the crowd. Helicopter ScenesActors were filmed in front of a green screen on a soundstage. Later, visual effects artists created a virtual set and added the helicopter's rotor…

It used to be that what you saw on a movie set would pretty much be what you saw in the final movie. If you wanted to have a mountain in the background, you'd have to go to one. However with modern technology, CGI has made it possible to have that mountain in the background without even leaving your home. Just whip up a green screen and you're good to go! This advancement in technology has meant for some big differences between what is filmed and what we see in the final movie. Here are some Hollywood movies without the VFX applied! Read more here: www.famefocus.comFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/focusfame

Game of Thrones “The Spoils of War” breakdown (Season 7, Episode 4) http://animagalaxy.com/vfx/item/466-game-of-thrones-the-spoils-of-war-breakdown-season-7-episode-4 http://animagalaxy.com/vfx/item/466-game-of-thrones-the-spoils-of-war-breakdown-season-7-episode-4 Game of Thrones “The Spoils of War” breakdown (Season 7, Episode 4)
In episode four of HBO's Game of Thrones season seven, “The Spoils of War,” Daenerys and her Dothraki horde engaged the Lannister army in a fiery fray brought to life with help from visual effects by Deluxe’s Iloura. Reteaming with VFX Supervisor Joe Bauer and VFX Producer Steve Kullback, Iloura VFX Supervisors Glenn Melenhorst and Josh Simmonds led Iloura artists in crafting the visuals. Having honed its crowd pipeline and in-house tools for handling the enormous datasets required for large scale scenes featuring mounted riders and infantry for “Battle of the Bastards,” Iloura artists were able to draw upon that expertise in augmenting filmed elements or, in some cases, creating full CG shots, including some with thousands of soldiers in hand-to-hand combat. Iloura also created extensive set extensions as well as CG smoke and fire, and composited sequences with assets from multiple vendors to seamless effect. Game of Thrones “The Spoils of War” episode aired in the US August 6 on HBO and in Australia August 7 on Foxtel’s showcase channel.

Visual effects http://animagalaxy.com/vfx/item/366-visual-effects http://animagalaxy.com/vfx/item/366-visual-effects Visual effects
Visual effects involve the integration of live-action footage and generated imagery to create environments which look realistic, but would be dangerous, expensive, impractical, or impossible to capture on film. Visual effects using computer generated imagery have recently become accessible to the independent filmmaker with the introduction of affordable and easy-to-use animation and compositing software. Categories of Visual effects: Matte paintings and stills: digital or traditional paintings or photographs which serve as background plates for keyed or rotoscoped elements. Live-action effects: keying actors or models through bluescreening and greenscreening. Digital animation: modeling, computer graphics lighting, texturing, rigging, animating, and rendering computer-generated 3D characters, particle effects, digital sets, backgrounds. Digital effects (commonly shortened to digital FX or FX) are the various processes by which imagery is created and/or manipulated with or from photographic assets. Digital effects often involve the integration of still photography and computer-generated imagery (CGI) to create environments which look realistic but would be dangerous, costly, or impossible to capture in camera. FX is usually associated with the still photography world in contrast to visual effects which is associated with motion film production. Visual Effects 1875 - 2013: {youtube}VZcZMFdZLlg{/youtube}
