Watching this I almost feel bad about how little I had paid attention to some of this stuff. LIke the rebuilding of King's Landing I didn't even notice the change or the construction. The attention to detail and thought that goes into all this is mind blowing.
@robhunter69399 жыл бұрын
I felt the same, initially. Of course, I made sure to take more in on my rewatches. But, when you think about it, they made this world so real that we just accept it as reality without scrutiny. If they hadn't spent so much time on all this detail, the viewer would not have such a realistic experience.

Its ok, you're not supposed to "pay attention to detail". You're supposed to be so engrossed in the story & acting and emotions that you lose yourself, or at least that part of your analytical self and just absorb the scenes.

Yeah, as others pointed out, it's the opposite unfortunately. They are paid more than the average worker, sure, but they also work insane amounts of hours and tremendous stress. It's cool to work in the movie industry, for sure, but burnout and health issues are extremely common in the industry. I'm glad I work in other artistic fields, but I have acquaintances in the industry. They totally don't get the money they'd deserve :/

CGI workers are the prototype of the proletariat of the XXI century. The mass of them, those sweating out for the most hard work, not the technical directors, are paid a lot less of the consuming of their lives behind the screens, the rest is the profit for the capitalists. A lot of hours + high productivity = massive profits. Also, they continuously have to adapt to the automation of their work to escape unemployment by robotization of processes; figure in a not so distant future, TD will require (or only imagine in his head) "a monster like godzilla but with more spikes on the arms is walking through the interior of a spaceship like millennium falcon crunching thousands of bugs spreading out from the floors etc etc, " and the Artificial Intelligent agent will render immediately hundreds types of previews human eye cannot distinguish from reality...

It takes them so many days and hours to select the perfect locations, the details and everything else put together and our eyes do not even see the tiny details that goes into everything they try to build with so much love and care. The actors, scenes, dialogues, costumes, armor/weapons, whole new languages, music, editing, the process, cameras, lighting, shadows, fake snow, injuries, missing childhood, falling sick, feeding them all, schooling the kids, transporting the actors and the crew etc etc and the long list goes on and on. To shoot one scene can take days and that scene can even get deleted. It's mind boggling. We get to watch it in our cozy abodes with a bag of popcorn, not giving a second thought of what they went through to entertain us in an hour!!

I really hate CGI when you see it. That being said, GoT most of the times does a REALLY great job on using it seamlessly. Except for the dragons of course, but that is kinda obvious. When CGI is used to extend or change existing sets it can do so much great stuff and it's really impressive. Especially the crowd shots, buildings/structures and the landscapes are beautiful, great work. And I really appreciate that they avoid CG fire.

Paul Jenkins Well now that we've seen all the episodes, I would say season 6 is a mix kind of good and bad episodes. The last two episodes were gold, possibly the best ones we've ever seen so far, episode 5 was incredible too. But episode 8 was seriously the most disappointing episode I've ever EVER watched. The rest was ok but 7 was slow.

Thats the kind of detail, I totally miss in the new Seasons (6&7). The Hound grabs an axe to go, hunt the brotherhood? Yeah man, but the axe is just one, we casually bought at the market. We have a scene where all characters meet in Kings Landing? Just use some kind of modern stage with mountings of Iron, which definitely look completely new. Not to speak of the chipboard, that didn't really exist in mediavel times... I think, thats all, because they have to deliver so fast and have to make it all happen in one year to the next season. So, there is no place for details like in this video...
