There're a few movies I've written that would need several terrorist-like questions to be answered in order for the scenes to look right. I'd also need forensics specialists and maybe even whoever knows how would an explosive energy beam creating an instant firewall in the middle of a forest would look like. Above all, I'd also need to know how much big and deep a lake should be in order to destroy a city seaside front with a tsunami. The scene would be a big battle where the villain decides to annoy/challenge/tire out the hero by "pushing" enough water from the lake so that a couple of miles of seaside front of the city are in danger of being devastated by the tsunami. The hero would answer and basically "destroy" most of the tsunami.... which would also mean whoever I hire would also need to know how much you can "damage" a tsunami while still being able to wreck house's windows, storefronts and such.

Honestly, while I love most of the effects in these movies, especially Davy Jones, this shot took me out of it a little. It doesn't feel like, to me, that he's really there. Needed a little more damage to him and his clothing, a little better interaction with the particles. But that's just my 2 cents.

He is so right about getting notes that are confusing. When I was doing licensing work for Disney years ago the art director would say "Needs more tone on tone" The head of my studio and I had no idea what that meant.

@@kjoc70 I feel like Nolan and Kubrick would both do it, but the similarities end there. Nolan would send McConaughey to a Black Hole once or maybe twice, let it crunch and that'd be it. Kubrick would still be reshooting it to this day because Matthew didn't stare quite right into the Event Horizon. Or because the black hole didn't quite catch him the way Kubrick wanted him to be caught. Also, because time dilation, 'to this day' would be like... fifty years from now.

Water doesn't break immediately when you come out, it stays uniform and you can see that in slow-mo. The water looks like it's stretching before it breaks and the swimmer comes out of the water, and I feel they captured that really well when the Celestial comes out of the ocean.

[@BankMoviegoer]

You saying this reminds me of the shot where a ship emerges from the water in Dune. That looks incredibly realistic to me.

[@joekerr2348]

I was in literal awe.....watching that pirates scene in theaters.......the whole room was infact.....iconic.

[@joshcaley3145]

The pirates films always makes me laugh the wind in the sails are going in the opposite directions

[@hillis7981]

A norwegian film series that is all about destruction: "Bølgen" (the wave), "Skjelvet" (the earthquack) and "Nordsjøen" (the northsea). Relative low budget movies, would be fun to see you guys react to them!

[@HyperWolf]

I think you meant earthquake (or actually The Quake)… although I’d give a movie named earthquack a watch. 🌎🦆 It would be cool to see them watch these movies. I think I’ve actually seen a bit of The Quake (or might have been The Wave) in a class, a bit before the pandemic hit.

[@stewiegriffin4]

Definitely! The effects in those movies are actually very impressive

[@luuketaylor]

@@HyperWolf I would absolutely pay for a movie called The Earthquack, where a giant duck causes natural disasters.

[@ParanoidMarvin]

I liked Bølgen! Had no idea it's a trilogy though.

It's lovely how proud Sam is of his dad.

[@degrassi420]

bahahahahah

[@naurcho]

even though my bg is in practical FX and I feel like you guys are hardly speaking English sometimes, I can't stop watching your content. I really enjoyed listening to Bryan speak, he seems to have a wealth of knowledge to impart and there just isn't enough hours in the day to absorb it all. He reminds me of my professors in school. Man, I love filmmaking.

[@ac8274]

Just discovered this channel and I’m becoming obsessed. Awesome stuff!

[@arpanmahapatra342]

Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy has the most amazing visual effects which still stands out, some impressive hard work

[@JoseShiffinsArtboard]

Sam : what kinda safety reasons? Brian: splinterssss This was really fun to watch and knowing that the guy joking about his works really have made the 'sea to bark'... Just awsome.

[@mastercreed74]

Thank you for doing the Pirates scene!!!! I have been wanting to see you all talk about it forever!

[@Jamamegapr]

I always loved that shot in Iron Man 3 when the suit flies and attaches to Pepper's body. Looks as good as when I saw it the first time

[@carlosrvra]

That scene where Tony "rescues" Pepper instead of himself chokes me up every time. Probably my favorite, most rewatched scene in the entire MCU.

[@uekernas]

Please do a VFX artists’ reaction video to Aliens (by James Cameron): some of the best old-school effects ever captured on film!

[@Gadgetman59]

I thank you all SO much for allowing me access to the magic of VFX...I could never have had the behind- scene access without your dedication to your craft...

[@LTRX_]

Glad to learn that putting a lot of effort into details even if it still will get blurred out would definitely work because I've been thinking about doing that for ages. It just narrows down the amount of experimentation I'm gonna need to do in compositing.

[@seize3]

Holy shit! This guy is a legend! His movies stand the test of time. The Fifth Element came out over 20 years and still looks amazing! 👏🏼

[@DJosAmmel]

"Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World" had INSANE destruction scenes, curious how much was CGI.

[@BadBoy-xw7sz]

Why kzbin.info/www/bejne/fIS2d5qNoamVgLc…..

[@skycat04]

Plenty of it was CGI, and not just in those scenes... ILM also worked on that movie.

[@mcgoose258]

i'd love a whole episode just about tall ships, Master and Commander, Black Sails, etc

[@rob4141]

what a legend! obviously loves his artwork and his passion. such incredible work, filmmakers take note!

[@timrust574]

I've been waiting for you guys to do the "it's just good business" scene from Pirates for ages. so glad to see that one!!

[@nuyabuisness7526]

"Apollo 13, 6th Element, and Titanic were the first 3 movies I worked on." Quite a modest start all told only working on 3 of the most spectacular movies of the decade.

[@BadBoy-xw7sz]

[@user-zd2kl9yg4v]

Sixth element? That Leslie Nielsen movie?

[@RaydeusMX]

About out of focus things, it seems a lot of people don't seem to realize the vast majority of what we see is actually out of focus (the focal point for human vision is tiny in comparison to our full field of view) so our brains evolved specifically to perceive a ton more detail from an out of focus image than people would expect. That's why even when something is going to be out of focus the details still matter just as much as they do in the part that is going to be in focus.

[@jalin8039]

well said

[@seth1665]

This was one of my favorite guests for a lot of reasons, but mainly because these are some of the coolest shots that I remember. They are huge scenes too.

[@nemowindsor8724]

I love Beckett’s death sequence! Such a wonderful breakdown, thank you!

[@theeddytor3490]

i have seen all VFX artists react here but i don't know why i was only able to co relate and connect with bryan the way he was explaining things it felts a lot of lesson. students or interns under him would be definitely be lucky to learn from him.

[@xaius4348]

Imagine how happy the engineer they consulted with for destroying eiffel tower must have been.

[@Ntho1994]

This guy has so much wisdom and experience. Specially the explanation about IronMan underwater scene.

[@JoshMcB]

Love it!- educational, entertaining and authentic. More guests/sessions like this please!

[@VideoGameAnimationStudy]

*Explorers, 1985* by _Joe Dante_ Industrial Light & Magic pulled off some _wonderful_ shots in that film with the home-made spaceship. A particular shot is where the boys flying the ship are approached by a police helicopter at night, and there's a _full turn around shot_ of the helicopter circling the ship, first shining a light _on_ the forcefield, then shining a light _through_ the force field. How?

[@dschortz]

Also, Can y’all look at the side by side of Diablo 2s cinematics. Idk why but the older ones feel more skillful. m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpDGfJWEg82MoaM

[@shezarrine]

damn someone else who has actually watched Explorers.

[@MegaAedu]

FUCK YEAH! Good call dude.

[@wunderwerks7826]

Here for this!

[@BurgerSoup]

Fancy meeting you here!

[@frankiesomeone]

The guy on the ship: "This is fine. I'm okay with the events that are unfolding currently."

[@juantorres2152]

I love the effort you guys put into this episode, it's why I love watching you guys, you care.

[@TheObicobiHD]

This was wonderful and very informative, definitely would love to see him back again 💜

[@missdire]

I genuinely enjoy Bryan's presence on the couch. He's so down to earth and humourous.

[@ovas2970]

One of the best episodes yet, love hearing how it is to really work with directors and artists

[@sirshotty7689]

Oh my god, I had a feeling even when I was young that the scene at the end of potc 3 just had to be miniature work and seeing finally confirmed makes me even more impressed.

[@timekr]

Wren: "I'm gonna transform into future Sam." Me: "Wait that's no... WTF, WHY DOES HE LOOK JUST LIKE AN OLDER SAM."

Brian is the best guest I think you've ever had on this show! What a genuine character. Great show guys!

Congratulations to Bryan for his Oscar nomination!

[@TKOfromJohn]

I've watched every single VFX and stuntmen react, so getting new uploads is always the highlight of my day. You guys are awesome!

[@bottledwaterprod]

Would "Sound Designers React" be too specific of an ask? It would be awesome to get Ben Burt talking about droid sounds or Jango's vaccum bomb from Episode II. Maybe as a special instead of a series?

[@Mangaka-ml6xo]

I think there's a lot of potential for that kind of special episodes, I'd be really curious to see what pros of the domain got to say on some films, series or effect in general.

[@charleslprice1]

Just realized the similarity of the Iron Man clip and the scene in End Game with Thanos’ attack on the Avengers. Amazing channel, btw. I love the content, interviews, and breakdown of the FX. Thanks for sharing, Crew!

[@vwlssnvwls3262]

One of my favorite explosion scenes was at the beginning of Phantasm 2 when the house explodes behind the tall man. He doesn't even flinch... what a mad man!
