2:13 so you replace the face on the stunt double... and then put the helmet on Chris Evans? LMAO

[@SuperTerminator850]

The VFX Supervisor said they originally filmed the scene with the two captains without the cowl/helmet, but when they began testing the movie, the audience lost track of which Cap. was which.. You can see more here : kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5XUimSMf5d4m9E&t

Rocket Raccoon is the greatest consistent feat of cgi in the mcu fight me!

[@JR-ju3kj]

Marvel has had a lot of consistent amazing feats of CGI in their Cinematic Universe(many of them in the SAME movie) but I would actually agree that Rocket Raccoon is the greatest consistent feat of CGI in their movies. I still remember vividly how people were laughing and treating it as a joke when it was announced that Marvel Studios were going to do a Guardians Of The Galaxy movie-a movie in which one of the main characters would be a talking, bipedal alien raccoon with hands with opposing thumbs(real raccoons have paws, not hands and they don`t have opposing thumbs as Rocket Raccoon does) who likes guns, explosive ordinance and is skilled with technology and who can fly space-crafts. But Marvel, as they often do, made it work and one of the reasons I believe it worked, was because of the direction of directors like James Gunn, The Russo Brothers, Joe and Anthony, the performance of Bradley Cooper voicing the character, the performance of the actors reacting TO Rocket and of course, the amazing, hard and dedicated work of all of the special effects people who were involved in bringing Rocket to life. Seeing how the filmmakers have a skeletal structure for Rocket didn`t surprise me at all because that`s the same thing the filmmakers did in the Lord Of The Rings and The Hobbit movies and what most visual effects companies do nowadays when they`re creating characters.

[@AgWhatsUp]

My god, so many things you would not even think is CG. Like captain americas mask/helmet in that last fight. And the glass floor they were fighting on was also CG!!!

I can..i cant describe how, but i can tell whats natural and what isn't.. I told that my friend about this, he said prove* it, i told him things in Kingsmen trailer, and after movie release, there was Vfx breakdown video, and i got mostly right. Its very awful and generic these days, the CGI i mean..its very unnatural. there is certain stiffness.

[@AJ-mw4nb]

Earth definitely has the Reality Infinity stone for sure

[@McFrozenNuggets]

What really surprises me is that Brie had her original Captain Marvel suit on for the entirety of shooting *_Endgame_* (even in the deleted scene of everyone kneeling in honor of Tony's death), when she had two completely different suits in the film.

[@mashonoid]

how do you make these vfx break down? can u make a vfx break down of this vfx breakdown?

maybe brie larson isn't a real person....what we see in interviews is also cgi

[@ChefinBb]

No they filmed her but they have to have a suit ready to go for the glowing and flying shots, so they took her real face and put the rendered body and hair on

hairs occasionally done with cgi when the characters have a leviathing hair. there are examples in Arrival (2016) and which is way before this movie. Also in Aquaman all the underwater scenes with the characters had cgi hair.

Yea

[@PrathamInCloud]

Her suit is definitely CGI. And no I don't think that Brie is CG in that scene maybe they used a stunt double max and then replaced them to make it look like it was Brie. But then that's it. It's really rare to CG an entire person (not saying that it isn't possible)

[@MattWileyArt]

It’s a CG body double that they line up with the actress so they can correctly simulate CG lighting and object collisions instead of painting and masking light over the suit/skin.

[@lynxtop]

1:08, 2:03 now i've seen everything

[@itisohm]

To everyone saying Brie Larson was slimmed down and saying negative about the VFX people, They had to slim it down. The suit seemed stretched not because of her "fat" but because of the apparatus used.

@Waku Santiago yeah. Although I am not on anyone's side but I guess many are and they just don't seem to have a broader point of view.

1:54 The HQ could have been a miniature. Like the ones George Lucas built (not himself, of course) for the prequels. Also, not related to this video, but Thor's hammer should have been real objects. They could replace it with a CGI replica for the scenes in which it flies around and does crazy stuff, and cover it with CGI when Thor does magical shit; but the fact that the actors grab an imaginary object is really cheap and lazy.
