Nice point there!! just wanted to add something. Network measurement are Megabites while the measures we are using in computers locally are megabytes, which is 8 times more than megabites, that means, a network working at 100 mbps means it can handle 12.5 megabytes per second, so, if you open that 40 mb file on a 100 mbps network, you are actually taking 2,5 seconds to open just that file. Said so, actually most networks are at least 1000 mbps, which are 125 megabytes per second. So your point is even more clear now. Imagine if we are now talking about a 500 mb exr, now you can kill yourself if you are on a slow network, hahaha

Hugo and Ian. The issues with the reduction of the opinion of VFX is the "democratization" of VFX. All those DVD extras and BTS videos have unraveled teh mystique of VFX and thusly made everyone into a armchair critic. They have now seen one or two breakdowns, opened up Blender, and think that they are an expert. Not an expert in creating them, as that would educate them into knowing how hard it is, but an expert in seeing the trick. Now that so many uneducated know the trick, its "computers" Once they see something fantastical or "impossible" they know that someone did it on a computer just like playing a Playstation game. So if it is even a good effect it is now dismissed as being easy. Anyone can get Blender and make VFX now. Software is cheap, It can be made on a laptop. They think that that's the barrier and the barrier is gone. Not understanding the art, science and craft behind it. Doing things practically doesn't use software or look like a video game. So in their mind, that's the craftsmanship.... not some one sitting in front of a screen. Its a matter of perception. They perceived how easy it is, therefore it has no value and they want to poke holes. Even if a giant muppet Jabba the Hut Looks terrible to our eyes today, the fact that it had to be sculpted, cast in foam, painted and is tactile is something very few people can do, so it has a higher value in their minds. Even if a digital version of a CG creature still took just as much skill to sculpt, texture, animate.... and comp.... They still see it as the "computer" and therefore low skill made that.

Until when will this discount be valid? Do I have to wait for the biweekly payment to be able to buy it :(

Great video! but i wonder how to get these elements properly displaced behind something, I know you can use cryptomatte but can we just use the position pass to cut out ? or should I just use deep ?thanks!

I told my mum that I want to get it so please don’t make the discount end too early, thanks.

Thank you for this , such an inspiration

Was so great to see / hear this. Could listen to Mike talk about his stories all day, and I have so many questions about The Golden Compass. Being one of the lucky few who got to see the NP sequence (original Golden Compass ending) it's a crime that it never got to be released in any form. So much time and effort went into it - truly stunning. Thanks for uploading the podcast :)

I'm sure everyone is sick of talking about it but... On the topic of the FX3, It's funny because I see a lot of people taking about why they used the FX3 and they sight all the reasons you mentioned. But personally, I believe it's mainly due to the super high second ISO of 12800. Something that's not really talked about much is the fact that even if you need to use lights or you want to use light to achieve a certain look, you only need to have a small kit with low wattage to fill the scene with light. Put another way: The Sony sensor is so "Sensitive" to light and that means, you don't have to use as much light to get a good look. I think this was crucial to the run and gun gorilla style filmmaking that Edwards likes. I'm sure the other factors you mentioned are important as well, but in the end, I think the sensitivity of the camera made a lot more sense than people give it credit for. The other thing is, you mention that since the camera was small it could be more inconspicuous. This is true but if you look at any of the behind the scenes, you'll see they had it fully rigged out one a gimbal mounted to a should rig. That along with a sound and lighting crew, it would have nullified this benefit. ;) Lastly, I just wanted to say that even though there are a lot of negative aspects to people thinking that the FX3 was the sole reason the movie looked to good, I think there is one very important benefit: It really shows that the you can make a movie with whatever camera you like. We are living in the golden age of cheap home cinema products. Now more than ever people have no excuse not to go out and bring their visions to life. I mean heck, if you wanted the exact same look, the VZ-E1 has the same sensor and only costs 2200$. Or use a Canon, Panasonic, Nikon, BlackMagic, etcetera. You could probably make a camera, sound and lighting kit that costs less than 3-4k now a days. Use it smartly and you can make a banger. My point is, the barrier to entry has been shattered now so there's no more excuses. :)

that last question was so great. so specific and was able to pull out that nugget of the story from Mike.

Thankyou so much for making this video.

Bros how about compositing volumetrics? Are there efficient workflows ?

Seen that episode of the show form the 80's called Movie Makers on matte painting? they are saying exactly what you're saying about painting the feeling of the shot not actuality. Young guy being trained by Albert Whitlock saying you need to make blobs instead of detail. Also, hitchcock talking about Rope, and always finding that set dressers were trying to be interior designers when they should be writers. Making and dressing things because it all contributes to telling us who the characters are - oh, you mentioned Nolan. I'm out of here.

People also leaves in a fantasy world to think an actor would be in a real scene of airplane 😂😂

Not seen this film, but the face-add comp work at 12:11 looks pretty bad.

Next they will be saying an animated movie was live action… (The lion king(2019)):… Oh.

Ian, please get better podcast camera! Ask Hugo, what does he use. I love to listen to you, but my eyes bleed.

Perhaps people are sick of every film being animated

I use it for Mocap in a pinch and nothing else given the limitations. I ended up downgrading my subscription to the basic plan; and as it is, it still feels like an expensive paid beta. Great video. And great point of view on AI.

NuCLear. Nu CLEAR. Get it right.

First of I want to congratulate you on the 3rd anniversary of the podcast! I've been listen and watching this since not that long ago but knew about you before finding the podcast, through the Before and Afters articles and Hugo's streams on Nuke. I really enjoy watching you guys talk because I feel like i'm part of these conversations, the shared opinions and some experiences. In this one specially with Hugo talking about video clubes being the norm and Blockbuster coming on the late 90's, and also the behind the scenes documentaries being one of the biggest reasons to be working in this industry. For me it was the behind the fxs of Empire Strikes Back, where it showed the history behind the FXs and the magic in movies and in particular children making movies with clay or household items. It meant not only that movies were made, but also that I could be making them. Then comes the reality of living in a third world country and the complications of having no budget, but we make what we can with what we have jajaja. Thank you guys for all your work!

GUYS THIS IS LONGER THAN THE MOVIE :D

haha, I watched it on VHS, 200% pirate version and I loved it! And I watched it several times. Borrow from the near videoteka...and we had to returned the VHSs' rewinded...

27:25 this is probably one of the best uses of blue screen I've seen in a movie! The lighting and shadows on Keanu match up perfectly with the background footage, which is of the incredible elevator shaft model! This movie utilized so many great filming techniques like rear projection, matte paintings, miniatures, visual effects, and dangerous stunt work which makes it one of the best action movies ever made! Thanks for this super in-depth and informative podcast about this amazing movie!!

Happy Anniversary guys!....so glad Ian got those wedges, pretty sure I remember hearing that episode of FXGuide podcast where he was told they had been thrown out!

Weeeee ^^ I love these retro episodes. Looking at petabytes worth of fluid sims is great and all, but these 20 to 30 year old films in my experience are much closer to the everyday VFX work and hold far more ideas on how to solve a shot than massive LED volumes and the latest and greatest in performance capture. What do you think about doing an episode on how the effects in a somewhat similar environment developed over the years? Thinking of the Batman films from 1989 till today or the Harry Potter series Great podcast, thank you so much for sharing these insights! Greetings from Berlin

Congratulations! I love your show.

The extras back then were an investment in your audience and not know it.

I was 21. It was new to us. Sandra was the hottie next door. It was new it was entertaining.

Dolls for males. Not action figures. Grown Man. Deal with it. Yo Joe!!! COBRA!! Deceptions ATTACK!! Autobots!! Transform and rollout! Not that I saw Robotech or anything else like that when it first aired.

Congratulations on year 3 of the podcast! Thank you for educating and entertaining us through the podcast 😊

ThankYou !!!

One thing movie streaming services should add are the menu and the available videos including behind the scenes.

thanks

It is inspiring to see how you can use Nuke to create those kinds of visuals, thanks Hugo for sharing the process behind

This is such an inspiring film for VFX, I work as a comper in London and I would love to know how to get to work on set for something like this!! it's such good work!

love your podcast as always. Can’t wait for you guys to talk about Mad Max Fury Road & Furiosa 😍😍

Never Screen, Only Plus. (Screen is only useful for combining mattes). If you find that screen looks best, I recommend fiddling with other areas of your comp so that Plus looks best.

I PUT A BACKGROUND IMAGE AND A CAR ,THN THE CAR IS LIKE TRANSPARENT ON THE BACKGROUND,HATS I DO TO SOLVE IT,I AM BEGINER IN NUKE.CAN YOU HELP ME?

Irridescence is the word you were looking for at 4:38
