I love shit like that! If you do any type of VFX then it's cool to see how the big dogs do it.

Also its pretty cool that they build shitloads of things for real.. so not everything is CGI, btw what type of VFX are you doing?

Thanks for sharing :thumbsup

I play around a lot with integrating Maya and Cinema 4D models into video footage. I love messing around with weapons (mainly real life gun shots, not the laser weapons). It's really fun masking out people and creating new backgrounds, too. I've added my kids into a bunch of movie clips so it looked like they were in the movie. My kids love it, and I enjoy doing it. I have a whole green screen studio set up at my house.

I made a video of a handgun going off in my hand like it was an accident - it was actually just a pellet gun. It looked real as can be, and freaked out a bunch of people when I shared it on FB. That started a HUGE gun control debate on my FB page. I had to confess and told them I composed it in After Effects, then showed them the unedited footage. I thought they were going to call Child Welfare on my ass so I had to cover my ass fast! :1orglaugh

I don't do it professionally, it's just something I enjoy messing around with. It's amazing how realistic you can make things appear. :thumbsup

Cool, sounds interesting ;)

You know...if you haven't seen the movie and want an abridged version, that video will do the trick for you.

Love that shit. Thanks for posting!! :thumbsup

These effects are crazy compared to the toy models Lucas used in the first films. We've come a long way.

I didn't realize there was CG effects in this movie.
