I was one of the artists on the sopranos job. It was a nightmare.

These guys were pretty accurate in their assumptions as to why it looked so weird- yes we had to flip her head horizontally to make it work in some shots and not in others, yes we knew the lighting made no sense. But there was nothing we could do!
We were given a bunch of body parts and told to Frankenstein it all together into the final sequence.
Please bear in mind it was 20 years ago and the tech has evolved hugely since then, yet even now it is super hard to do.
The other artist and I were under 25 at the time and working 16 hours a day for a month.
Sorry guys, we tried our best with the tools and materials we were given!

At the end of this series they'll reveal that everyone on the couch is CGI.

“Bruce Lee looks like that one guy from Tekken”

Oh the one modeled after Bruce Lee?

[DJapan]

I actually assumed Paul Walker had shot all those scenes before he died and they only did the one car scene in CG. Pretty fantastic!

[liontamer]

Please do not stop making these, this my favorite series

[tomgosy]

This series is really blowing up, great job guys!

[williamvale]

This VFX react series is such a good idea. Please continue it guys. Great work!

Fun fact: the cast they had of Peter Cushing came from the film Top Secret, directed by the guys who made Airplane and Naked Gun. The reason they had a cast of his head is because they had a visual gag where he is looking through a magnifying glass and his eye is super big, but when he puts down the glass, his eye still super big because they put a giant eye on his face

I love how these videos aren't just entertaining, but you legit learn so much watching it too. It's like the chill out couch version of Digital Foundry

React to DC digitally removing Henry Cavil’s mustache in Justice League!!

For me it was that Tarkin's forehead was too glossy. The other guy in the scene reflected the light in a matted way. But Tarkin looked like a waxed hardwood floor.

This is incredible. I will say this much... I saw Rouge One in theaters, and afterwards I had no idea there was CG character in the movie.

[SabsWithR]

Plot twist:
Those three guys are actually completely CGI

[chickenphat]

Please react to de-aging actors CGI
Or aging up actors CGI or both










(the Corridor Crew had a heart on this, briefly, before I edited this for the first time.. oops)

"between the nose, above the chin"

like... the mouth?

When I saw Rogue One in the theater, I hadn't heard they'd used CGI for Tarkin. I thought they'd found a decent doppelganger and then tried too hard on the makeup or something. Went home and immediately watched A New Hope (because that's what you do after seeing Rogue One the first time) and seeing the real Tarkin again really made it click.

Also. Carrie Fisher passed away THE DAY before I saw that movie. So seeing her at the end, in an end sequence which was already spectacular, sent me over the top emotionally.

What I wanna know is WHY WAS HENRY CAVILL’S UPPER LIP SO DEMONIC

[maxmartin]

Can you do a video on CGI animals? all the way from the original Jumanji to the more recent Lion King.

my new compliment to someone is now "you have a good subsurface scattering"
