  • I did the shot in AI around the 10:55 mark. When we removed the blue screen material on his head, we had to fill in the missing background from a clean plate. I decided that no matter how well we lined up the plate, it was going to be impossible to not see the split around the head - so I just split in the whole right side of frame from the clean plate and put the split off the center of the frame. (The girl running up to the camera at around 11:20 was also the first time I ever saw a match move get a standing ovation in dailies.). I was also in charge of the CG Teddy and the renders for him took over 24 hours a frame. When I was told I had to come up with a faster way to render him, I setup an all texture version of him that rendered in 3 minutes. I did a test for VFX supes Dennis Muren and Scorr Farrar that had side by side renders of the real fur and the fake one and they couldn't tell them apart. From that moment on, we never rendered the full fur Teddy ever again.

  • The 'puppet' from Mama is a Spanish actor called Javier Botet who suffers from Marfan syndrome. Marfans affects the connectivity tissue inside the body including the joints and he is able to bend his arms and legs in uncomfortable looking positions. The wires are used to help him keep those positions for extended periods of time while filming in unnatural positions. He is also 6'7" which also adds to the spindly, freakish look the film makers are trying to achieve. Love your channel!

If it didn't have to compete with Return of the King, it would've swept the Oscars. It's one of those films studios would be too scared to make today.

Also, Segundo de Chomón silent films are a lot of fun and full of effects. He was kind of the Spanish equivalent of Georges Méliès.

In particular the attack of the invisible Krell Beast that gets illuminated by a force field is in itself an amazing effect.

The shot where Mama charges the girls really fast is taken directly from the original short, like they recreated it completely unaltered. It would have been even better to look at the VFX from that version because not only is it their original idea but the execution is also so good that they brought it into this big production with all this extra story and puppets and shit and literally couldn't change or add anything to that shot to make it any better. You guys should check it out.

  • The Haunting of Hill House (2018) Episode 6 Two Storms would be a cool VFX feature. The episode is 55 Minutes long with only 5ish cuts. The longest episode is 15 minutes long and seamlessly transitions between different time and locations from the series while props and statues move in the background and actors seemingly teleport and change ages. It uses some really clever staging, set design, and practical effects but often goes unnoticed because the plot, character arcs, and dialog all converge rightfully distracting from the cinematography and direction of the episode. It would make a really cool breakdown for VFX React but I would recommend watching the episode and the series in it's entirety just because it's a great show! Awesome episode as always CC!

  • You should check out some of the special effects from VIY. It’s a Russian horror movie from 1967. Also, there is a German film called Vampyr from 1932 and the stuff they do with the shadows is kind of mind blowing for the time.

  • Love seeing your reviews of the older practical and optical effects. You should take a look at the leaping effect from Quantum Leap (the original series from the '89-'93). The effect has so many layers to it that would be fun to dissect. Particularly the leap effect from seasons 2 and 3 (season 1 had a much more basic version of the effect, and after some budget cuts seasons 4 and 5's effect were done on interlaced video instead of film and omit some of the steps of the effect). One of the leap layers, called the "star gate effect" (the stars and rays shooting from the center outward) is also used on the 80's HBO intro, and you can see how they created it by watching the "HBO Intro - Behind the Scenes" video at the 5:30 min mark. (That intro may make a good react segment in itself.)

  • The ghost in Mama and the effects (floaty underwater but on dry land) have to be inspired by the ghost in the Mexican supernatural movie Kilometer 31 (2006). It's too similar to be a coincidence. Edit: for you request at the end? La Belle et la Bête (1946) has some great visual effects for it's time.

I remember rewatching that trailer so many times because it went so hard and wanting too to make movies like that with my buddies. unfortunately movie making with my friends was not my destiny as it was yours. My film dreams fizzled. Thank you for reminding me of better, more innocent times.

  • That Orpheus clip was awesome. That's some amazing inventiveness. I'm super impressed they included the reflective double for the guy on the left since all that would be seen was his left shoulder briefly. AI was insanely good looking at the time. A visual treat that had some pretty wild vfx. I love horror films, they almost always have some really inventive or cool vfx in them to achieve something unnatural. Plus they've gotta be a lot of fun to work on.

  • It's not their normal media, but I would be interested to see them break down CGI from something like Air Crash Investigation, especially comparing early episodes to more recent ones since there have been a couple recent ones that were remakes of early episodes from about 15 to 20 years earlier to compare the evolution of CGI on the same subject. (FYI: Just gonna post this until they do look at the suggested media, if at all.)

Mr. Edwards experimenting in his bathtub, explaining the importance of getting some real shit elements into the comp and after a while concluding "yeah, that didn't work out... have to make something up on my own" had me laughing out loud! Seems like a genuinely awesome guy, C.Crew, how about trying to invite him?

  • For those who are interested, Casshern started as an anime in 1973 with the full name: Neo-Human Casshern. It was created by Tatsuo Yoshida, the founder of Tatsunoko Productions. There was also an OVA series in the 90’s, then the live action movie, and a reboot in 2008. I know about him thanks to his appearance in the fighting game “Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars” on the Wii.
