yes marekmoucek you are right that they can create the people with cgi technology but it takes longer than acting this scene with real people ... they havent got enough time to create all things on the computer

[xInfamousRealm]

so computer can make a new world...

[loveSc7]

that carribean scene with the captain coming down the stairs is IMPOSSIBLE! Just impossible! Damn, those guys are fucking good

@N4lzc But on the other hand, what you said about DD is true, becayse they did most of the background effects, image corrections but also the entire waterfall scene and Beckets death.

[Toini01]

@N4tc That's completly true but since Harry Potter I have to say that Double Negative made its way on to the podium too. They destroyed the millenium bridge, recreated London in 3D, created the CGI water simulator in HP4 later used for the flying dutchman in PotC. They also made tons of spells, smoke effects, thousands of green screens and Hogwarts completely in 3D. So even if they are not as known as ILM yet, I have to say they do as greeat job as ILM.

[N4lzC]

Digital Domain certainly do such a great Visual FX for lots of movies, but they only make the easy ones (of course for all of us mortals they can be difficult or impossible) but the truth is Industrial Light & Magic (aka ILM) is the company No.1 in making VFX for movies.

DD makes the easier ones (stairs sequence in Pirates of the Caribbean and some landscapes) while ILM take the responsibility to make the complex ones (ie.Davy Jones Tentacle face and his crew, Transformers Rigs and many others

[TheChiwawa]

[lorin1996]

[raisen052000]

@3:18 - What's the movie title??? I forgot.

[culliganbro1]

@TheKumaDB thats a good point. i wont argue any more because you seem to know more about this than i do. lol

[TheKumaDB]

@culliganbro1 You forget that when its all CG you don't see reality to compare it to =]. One thing I love about weta is they like to create software (massive, mudbox, mari). DD made Nuke though
